I wish I could stay up to enjoy the countdown but alas, I have to sleep. Excited to get to wake up to the final results though!

Regy Rusty posted:Easily my biggest Hipster Gamer year - 4 of my games not even in the top 60. Only one of those I find a bit surprising though is Darkest Dungeon 2. Tyrion Cuthbert, Roottrees, and Exocolonist are all pretty much expected. Love seeing someone else who liked Darkest Dungeon 2. I managed to beat Act 5 for the first time this week. Great game!

SchwarzeKrieg posted:seems laser-focused at everything I love in games and I’m kinda bummed that it took me this long to get into it. Referee posted:this was one I replayed on PS4 both for the trophies and to experience this world again Jordan7hm posted:The best side scrolling world I’ve ever played. It’s sprawling and circuitous, has lots of secret areas, feels super interconnected, and maintains a sense of discovery basically through the entire game. It’s the last point that sets HK above other games in the genre - constantly creating that sense of discovery from the start to the finish is something most games struggle with, but which HK nailed.  52. Hollow Knight (Team Cherry) (2017) 44 points. Voted for 5 times. Appeared #1 twice. Average of 8.8 Down by 3 places.  This year I have made some badges for games and Hollow Knight is the first badge winner! It had the highest average because everyone who voted for it loved it and why would they not? Had we had a GOTY thread in 2017, this stood a good chance at being in the top 3 even with that year as packed as it was! Also, just got breaking news of the Silksong release date!!! ...March...29th...2078? oh geez.

Lisztless posted:Lush, vibrant, replayable, and mechanically satisfying, with a plethora of secrets to discover. DC Murderverse posted:The episodic, non-linear nature of the chapters, the grid-based action, the wildly different settings and writing styles, it all feels like game designers having fun messing with convention, and the most amazing thing is that they made it fun and meaningful. bewilderment posted:this 2022 remake, ported to PC in 2023, shows it has plenty of tricks that other games still haven't picked up on.  51. Live a Live (SquareEnix) (2022) 46 points. Voted for 10 times. Average of 4.6 Down by 30 places. I have always wondered how to pronounce this game. Is it Live a Live? Or Live a Live? Or Live a Live? Or even Live a Live? *sigh* I guess I will just keep wondering.

I somehow played 35 hours of Hollow Knight without finishing it  I vaguely remember falling into Deepnest as one of the last things I did... But I think I will finally finish it this year, along with Shovel Knight.

Live a Live owns. Glad to see it this high. (And for the record, it’s the same pronunciation as “live music”, for both.)

Nottherealaborn posted:Its refreshing to play a shooter that isn't filled with machine guns spraying with nearly zero recoil, people jumping a sliding around like maniacs, and everyone being a bullet sponge. frytechnician posted:Killing someone in this game feels incredibly hard earned and legging it to an extraction point with your bounty is absolutely heart-pounding. Sweaty as hell but in the right way and absolutely best played with friends. the Paper posted:What a unique atmosphere, with a very pervasive Gothic Southern atmosphere. I love that the guns are all old timey with most only able to fire off one round before you need to reload. And there's no aiming reticle or crosshair, it's just you and the ironsights. The gunplay is intense, the fighting fun and hectic, and there's always a potential for danger.  50. Hunt Showdown (Crytek) (2019) 46 points. Voted for 6 times. Appeard #1 twice. Average of 7.6 Reading all this praise makes me wish I had picked it up on PlayStation when it was £5!

Pomeron posted:I'm a sucker for parrying games so I was super excited for Dynasty Warriors by way of Nioh 2. It did not disappoint. A Bystander posted:Also getting to pal around with some of history's heroes while also kicking their asses in duels for their poo poo rocks. Paying2Lurk posted:Bigger "battlefield" levels, a greater emphasis on parrying, and a Three Kingdoms setting. Lucky for me, I love all those things.  49. Wo Long Fallen Dynasty (Team Ninja) (2023) 47 points. Voted for 10 times. Average of 4.7 This game is super great, even though I am stuck on one boss. I will best him, though. Wish he did not copy himself into 10 other dudes though and cause me a lot of panic. You are going down Zhang Rang!!

I liked who long a lot but yeah didn't even make my top ten. It's a very decent team ninja game but doesn't reach the highs of nioh.

Wo Long peaked with the Lu Bu fight and never recovered. Truly the strongest man in the three kingdoms.

I really like how much simpler it is compared to Nioh 1 and 2 which I am dire at. The parry move is a gem and makes me feel super when it works

I'm happy my GOTY made it as high as it did despite no one else voting for it  Dude this thread is always so cool though, I love the presentation and I love seeing everyone's fervent passion for games I have never heard of
