Also I see 3 of the games on my Top 10 have already been listed in the lower rankings, proving that everybody else is wrong and I am right!

For the record, my prediction for the top 5 (I don’t know the results Rarity gave me the spreadsheet with the top 75 cut out) are Elden Ring, Triangle Strategy, Xenoblade 3, Pentiment, Vampire Survivors (dunno about the order except the #1 of course)

Mode 7 posted:My prediction would be fairly similar but replace Triangle Strategy with God of War: Ragnarok Yeah that’s also a good call. I also didn’t put any older games in my prediction but there’s always a possibility one of them could have made it in Regy Rusty posted:It is a bad game, and its ranking is where it belongs My friend whose game/story opinions I trust the most loved it but Literally Everyone Else hated it haha. It was a good excuse to take some stuff off my backlog anyway.

Requiem was worse in almost every way than Innocence. It did look nice though.

Bit surprised Mario + Rabbids the Spark of Hope has only one point when I ranked it sixth, maybe I just don't understand how the voting works.

Friends, it is time. Just 75 entries remain to stand in the way between one game and immortality. It could even be Immortality! Who has earned the right to call themselves Something Awful’s Game of the Year of 2022? It’s time to start our journey, right now…Tulip posted:Meredith Gran wrote a game that is on par with her work on OP. Her coming into game writing feels profoundly unfair. Levin posted:It did an admirable job encapsulating what growing up in the 90s was like. fez_machine posted:Confused, cringe inducing, filled with pointless cruelty.  (All the fabulous graphics in this countdown have been produced by VideoGames) 75. PERFECT TIDES (Three Bees, 2022, New Entry) 28 points, listed 3 times, #1 2 times Only three of you may have voted for it but with an almost perfect score Perfect Tides claims the highest average of any game on our countdown! Which can only mean one thing… It’s time to present our first Oskirb!  Ain’t he a cutie!

I wish I played Perfect Tides last year, but I've added it to my already staggering backlog to try and get through it at some point this year.

(VG: I am posting the evens, but thank you Rarity for all this superb text!) At this point it is only fair to remind you how draws are settled in the world of GOTY. Around here we use the countback rule meaning that the game with most 1st place rankings wins the tiebreaker followed by the game with the most 2nd place rankings and so on. Not coincidentally that rule comes into effect right now at #74… Looper posted:A real Girls Rock game, y'know. Super Inactive posted:Being a magical girl is awesome. morallyobjected posted:Someone last year listed one of the pros of this game as the fact that it's super gay. Kay Kessler posted:This is one of the gayest games I've seen.  74. BLUE REFLECTION: SECOND LIGHT (Gust, 2021, Down 19) 29 points, listed 5 times The verdict is in: gay is good!

I'm not sure if I'm surprised to see Bayo 3 not in the top games but Trombone Champ definitely got ROBBED and I will see you in court. The Trombone Court.

Currently have one hand alternating between drinking and checking this thread and the other attacking the big dragon in Caelid that doesn’t fight back to get lots of runes at a low level (with breaks so I don’t straight-up get RSI)

I always say that in many ways this early stage of the countdown is my favourite part. There’s no need for tension, there’s no need for stress, we can all just kick back and enjoy the hidden gems and the fond memories of years past. This year I think that’s more true than ever before because this year we have some truly magical sights to show you. Which brings us on to #72…Simulation883 posted:Amazing tale. lunar detritus posted:The narrative was what got me through. Fifteen of Many posted:I'm a big idiot and am easily drawn in by strong narrative beats. Fix posted:Brought me to tears.  72. GOD OF WAR (Santa Monica, 2018, Re-Entry) 29 points, listed 5 times We’ll be expecting to hear from Kratos much later in the day but his new adventure had you yearning for his former glories as God of War returns to our chart for the first time in three years! (VG: I would love to grow a beard as nice as Kratos'!)
