My third favourite game of all time ever. I was doing the artwork for the countdown and one of the tracks from the base game came on and it killed me. I just have to hear those opening notes and I am transported back into the game and when I first got everything and saw the ending and then I am a wreck. :3:

What a masterpiece.

FromSoft are back for their second appearance as Bloodborne climbs back up the chart and with a gain of 18 spots it is (along with Rimworld) the highest mover in this year’s countdown! It seems goons will never stop thirsting for blood!

(VG: OH! Hello! It seems we have gotten my 6th favourite game of all time ever into the countdown! Good to see you, Bloodborne, (my) GOTY 2020!)

Well I can barely comprehend it but it appears that we are already on the edge of the top 40. It feels like we have seen so much but there is still so much to come. The excitement is only going to rise from here but before we hit the top 40 there is still one game that will be excluded from the fun. Who will face the bitter shame of landing at #41?

HEY, DEEZ NUTS!

My lovelies, I do hope that you are having a fun time with our humble little countdown. However all this excitement is a bit too much and I am in need of some recuperation. Therefore I’m afraid that at this point I must announce that we have reached the intermission of today’s festivities while I seek sustenance. We will be returning at 7:00pm GMT/2:00pm EST to begin counting down your top 40. In the meantime for your entertainment my delightful co-host VideoGames will be ranking every Final Fantasy party member so please sit back, enjoy and I’ll be back before you know it!

strive is such a sick game and it's gotten a shocking amount of people into fighting games who never thought they'd like the genre in their lives. if you want to try one game out of your comfort zone this year make it guilty gear strive. i'm aware the votes are already tallied but i'm campaigning for next year's vote already.
