Now I love a classic as much as anyone but if this is the 2022 Game of the Year then I think we ought to see some games from 2022. Luckily that’s exactly what I have up for you next at #38…Tirade posted:More addictive than XCOM. Phenotype posted:Very satisfying to play and improve your decks. Cruiserweight posted:It's wild to look at the voice cast and realize the vast majority of them have voiced their respective character at some point in the past. Thursday Next posted:An insane mashup of Barbie Dress-Up and precision card battler with superheroes. AceOfFlames posted:A club with the acronym EMO KIDS. Chairchucker posted:It would be better if I could smooch Captain America but you can't have everything.  38. MARVEL’S MIDNIGHT SUNS (Firaxis, 2022, New Entry) 56 points, listed 8 times, #1 2 times No smooching, no buys

Oh my darlings, it has been a long time coming but I think we can say that we have reached the first notable release of 2022 to fall by the wayside. But which game is going to have to settle for charting as your #36? Could it be Return of Monkey Island? Or perhaps it will be Neon White? Or how about Splatoon 3? There’s only one way to know for sure…Relax Or DIE posted:I love this dumbass game. CottonWolf posted:The story is insane and somehow pulls it off. Mamkute posted:A multitude of ways to mash monsters. Super Inactive posted:Then you add the memes? *psshh* Ibblebibble posted:The amount of cash they put into licensing My Way actually paid off. CharlieFoxtrot posted:I got to kill Chaos, automatic top 3.  36. STRANGER OF PARADISE: FINAL FANTASY ORIGINS (Team Ninja, 2022, New Entry) 61 points, listed 11 times, #1 1 time Jack Garland may only have peaked at #36 but he got to kill Chaos and really who could ask for more than that?

OK please bear with me as a jRPG newb. I started FF1 in my own time four days ago (in the Marsh Cave right now), and the first boss I had to face up against was called Garland. I just posted that entry and noticed the name Jack Garland. Is FF0 an actual prequel to FF1??

Fun fact: prerelease so many people online guessed that Jack was Garland that Square's marketing wound up not even bothering to hide it.

It feels like the pressure is really starting to set in now, friends. There are only so many games remaining before we will have to start seeing the big names of the year. Which game did you vote in at #33?Lonegar posted:I love when games use weird and niche methods of gameplay to tell a story. Morphogenic96 posted:Looking for what’s hidden beneath the obvious interpretation was thrilling. Issaries posted:I thought I knew everything. AceOfFlames posted:a celebration of film as an art and a condemnation of film as an industry. Skjorte posted:Closest thing anyone can get to being able to step inside and magically ping-pong themselves through various corners of a David Lynch work. imhotep posted:poo poo gets weird.  33. IMMORTALITY (Sam Barlow, 2022, New Entry) 64 points, listed 11 times, #1 1 time There’s no one else in the world of gaming who does what Sam Barlow does and for the first time he’s featured in your countdown.

I played this this year but the rng method of progression kept it off my list. It's just not very satisfying having it be down to luck to find new clips instead of puzzle solving and deduction like Her Story.
