theh most notable of these came from epic, and was released in this year. wont include it whowever. also mario odyssey somehow isnt 10 and pubg is 6 for some reason. sham list.

PUBG got picked over Fortnite cause it was the originator and it got a 6 cause it's not very good

Fortnite would have got the same score :ssh:

if you think pubg is a 6 and horizon zero dawn is somehow on the same tier as super mario odyssey i would contend your mehtodology is cringe and fail.

pubg is probably the most historically important game of the last decade that isn't named Dark Souls, depending on what release date you give Minecraft. anyway it's not like historical influence has to be a criterion

if we take the real top 10 games of 2017 we get a much different picture than the one painted here

super mario odyssey 10
botw 10
hollow knight 10
persona 5 10
nier a 10
prey 10
sonic mania 10
pubg 10
yakuza 0 10
cuphead 10

I think it's good Pyre got included because it's excellent, however leaving out games like Cuphead and Yakuza 0 sadly sandbags 2017 and ignores some of its best games, and for this reason I think 2017 deserves a higher score

u saw the result with the top tier of 2017 in place and switched them to keep 2000 on top as thats when ff9 released. pretty simple deduction really. hence why the pubg 6 and the shaving down of perfect games like prey and super mario oddyssey, startling lack of games like sonic mania, cuphead, persona 5, yakuza 0 etc. transparent really.

I do not mind no 10 for Half Life because you gave Portal 2 a 10 ;)

Where was FFVIIremake rank? I think I missed it. I like your methodology a lot Rarity and actually agree with pretty much all your numbers from an objective viewpoint!
