Especially because the "theory" is pure conjecture in 95% of them while the voice is pretty annoying in 100% of them

She leaned forward. "We are going to assassinate the bad men of Hollywood."

There are very few long-form game analysis videos out there that are actually worthy of the term. I think the Joseph Anderson guy is pretty okay. Game Theory is just mostly pathetic meandering with obnoxious clipart insert cuts every half second.

Guys, is this character from this one game actually this character from this completely unrelated game?

predicting my top 10 of the year games is gonna look like

Yakuza 0
Resident Evil 7
Zelda: Breath of the Wild
Fire Pro Wrestling World
Prey
Persona 5
Dishonored: Death of the Outsider
Mario+Rabbids: Kingdom Battle
Destiny 2
Mario Odyssey

needless to say I did not expect to enjoy Destiny 2 this much or hell, a loving Rabbids XCOM so much. I could see Metroid or the new Xenoblade taking up spots on here eventually, though.

Hm , I don't think I've even played 10 new games in 2017. In order from the beginning of the year...

Horizon Zero Dawn
Night in the Woods
Nier Automata
Injustice 2
Hellblade
Sonic Mania
Divinity Original Sin 2
Life is Strange: Before the Storm

Of those I probably enjoyed HZD, Hellblade and NITW the most.

C'mon, if I wanted to do that I'd be asking about the sequel to Heart's Medicine

Doki Doki's good and short, but also yeah it's not GOTY material.

I loved NITW so much; in a slower year I'd put it at the top. Others I liked so far were Injustice 2, ARMS, Monolith, Golf Story, Slime-San, Friday the 13th. Currently playing Ruiner but I doubt it'll crack any lists for me, a lot drags it down as you move onward. And I doubt I'll be able to finish Horizon since it's between that and Persona 5.

the entire ending being moustache girl sitting on a throne and judging people for being bad, and then getting confused when you fight alongside people who tried to kill you the entire game who then shout at her to go away and how they don't need a hero, felt extremely weird imo taking into account the drama with mecha the slag and their awkward silence about leaving jontron in the game, it read to me like a message about how you can't judge other people as lovely for stuff they've done because everyone is kind of lovely while also having the super gross subtext of multiple people who have a history of being objectively terrible. but i've seen a few people say they didn't get that sense from it at all, so i guess i'm really just reading into it too much

still, it is definitely like the best 3d platformer i've played in years and a sequel that further expands on everything it does so well is something i'd buy immediately

When I read "Gamer Babies" I heard the theme to Muppet Babies in my head.


Also I am going to add Yakuza 0 to my top ten list even though I just watched a Let's Play. I am playing Yakuza Kiwami right now so I will just extrapolate through the transitive property
