Some, however, do not. Here’s the game you voted in at #65!The Grey posted:What the hell is a mobile game doing on my list? Arist posted:I don’t like playing games on my phone. This is the only exception. SlothBear posted:This is the game I've played the most on a mobile device since Snake on a Nokia in the early 2000s. Infinitum posted:Good? Da fuq?  65.

the real suspense of this year's thread is not what the top 3 will be--it is whether Rarity will take an unscheduled two-hour break in the middle and leave us all wondering if she's dead again.

Escobarbarian posted:Hooray! I helped! Imo it just doesnt advance the gameplay of the first one [which i thought was an excellent start to a series] enough and retained so much of the jank that when paired with the less interesting story overall it was a step backward rather than a great sequel. The ending made me regret suffering through the annoying stealth encounters in the back half of the game

VideoGames posted:Wouldn’t you know it? We’ve already broken into the top 60. Time sure flies when you’re having fun! I suppose all we can do is take a look at which game is up next at #60… I liked dread tho i think 1 nemesis would have been more effective than 7 generic ones that your formulaically kill - kinda removed the tension made it feel more like a game of packman when you encountered them. Game is good tho but i dont like mercury steams controls or lack of remap.
