Wolfenstein was probably my favourite, that game pressed all the right buttons for me. It'll never get any recognition in any semi-respectable GOTY things, though, because it's a single player only manshoot and you're not allowed to like those any more.

Oh yeah, that's a close second for me, it's really cool in a lot of ways.

People complain that you wake up out of a coma and start killing dudes without effort, but that's the whole point, violence was the only thing that could wake him up because this is a game about shooting nazis forever.

My GotY is probably South Park because this has been a trash year for games.

It's been a pretty good year for games, actually. But I'm a big fan of Diaboro 3: Da Reapuh of Souls.

unironically persona q is goty

the hard mode is probably one of the best combinations of challenge and fun that i've played recently, and although the zen / rei plot is boring as gently caress, the bonding of the casts through the vehicle of kanji and ken becoming friends loving owns and justifies the entire game imho

So I really got back into the mood of playing some really old, really bad game; that I wasted too much time on. Navyfield.

Any of you interested to take part on this journey through magical bullshit and insanity?

No, it's a really janky poorly designed RPG. I wish I didn't buy it.

I had zero experience with M&M games prior to playing X, so I don't know how valuable my opinion is. It starts (and ends) a bit rough, and the very generic fantasy setting is super boring compared to the wonderfully bizarre stuff from the early Might and Magic games, but overall it was a great game with an excellent class/skill system and one of the only long RPGs in recent memory that managed to keep me interested enough to actually finish it. I imagine anyone who likes grid-based, turn-based PC RPGs would really enjoy it.

The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky.

It's a pretty good JRPG and it's on the PC and it's called TitS. Also I've only played it for an hour and a half but it is charming and fun and well-written.

Wolfenstein secretly had a really good story and I'm surprised that nobody has mentioned it.
