This has been a hell of a thread, today. Wowza.

I need to actually play some games rather than buying them just to add them to my Steam library. Playing games sounds fun.

And so it is we come to the most precarious position of all, friends. The dreaded #11 spot. This is the one that everyone fears but for one member of our illustrious lineup this is about to be the end of their journey. We have remaining 11 of the absolute best gaming experiences that the industry can provide but there is only room for 10 as we go forward. Who will be left with the sting of tears, consigned to history? Could it be one of the two Pokémon games left in the mix? Could it be Triangle Strategy? Could it even maybe - just maybe - be Elden Ring? Here’s the game you picked as your #11!

Wow, we have made it all the way to the top 10. My darlings, I must confess that I did not believe we had the fortitude to make such a strenuous journey but we are here at last and now only 10 positions stand between one game and fame everlasting. Who is going to be your 2022 Game of the Year? We have a spectacular set of options left to choose from. Is it going to be Horizon Forbidden West? Or how about God of War: Ragnarok? Will there be a repeat victory for Final Fantasy XIV: Endwalker? You may have thought things were tense up till now but we have only just begun the true hardships that lie in wait. This is the game you voted in at #10…

That’s right, Pokémon makes its first of two appearances in the top 10 as Legends Arceus scrapes in by a single point. But such goes the dog eat dog world of GOTY where it so commonly comes down to the tightest of margins.

I agree with this, the combat is extremely demanding and retrying bosses quickly gets not fun but fortunately the game lets you shove it out of the way so you can concentrate on the good stuff
