There's one game that I'm kind of surprised is this high since I felt like a lot of people didn't like it as much as I did. But I keep double checking the lower list and it's definitely not on there so, guess we'll see how high it gets!

Golden Idol was on my list last year and it was the only game even trying to scratch that Obra Dinn itch. Clearly it has done well for the dev because after a game and 2 DLCs, they've got a sequel coming out this year means they're either easy to make, sell well, or both. I'll keep playing em as long as they want to make more!

looper posted:There are people who will tell you Engage has great gameplay but a story better off ignored. Those people are wrong. Fire Emblem Engage was an absolute delight and I'm so happy to know that those devs, not only do they still got it, they love Fire Emblem even more than me. endorph posted:it really executes on what it wants to be: a celebration of the series, a fun game to play, and an enjoyable thing to spend time with. cheetah7071 posted:judging a new entry by how similar it is to the previous entry is foolish, no matter how beloved that entry is. You have to judge it for what it is. inu posted:I'm actually not going to say much more because I would be repeating some of the posts that came before this with the same praise. But to sum it up, the gameplay is just REALLY REALLY fun.  13. Fire Emblem Engage (Intelligent Systems) (2023) 186 points. Voted for 28 times. Appeared #1 four times. Average of 6.6 You best all engage your time in this if you enjoy SRPGs.

For a list that didn't include BG3 or TOTK I'm surprised just how many things I listed haven't shown up yet.

It is unquestionably my game of the year.  12. Resident Evil 4 Remake (Capcom) (2023) 209 points. Voted for 39 times. Appeared #1 twice. Average of 5.3  A ton of points but mostly around the bottom of the lists, however it was the clear best remake on the list and deserves the award! Congratulations Leon!

Place-for-place points seem quite a bit higher than last year. I wonder if things were more condensed or just higher turnout than 2022.

Curious to see what the game with the highest overall average is, especially as we head towards the top 10. The highest one so far is Hollow Knight, averaging at 8.8, right?

Enjoyable boss fights and fantastic style; hard to believe it came out of literally nowhere Ms Adequate posted:Out of nowhere on a cold January day, Tango Gameworks - the guys who made The Evil Within and Ghostwire: Tokyo, released a game. There was no forewarning. There was also no reason to anticipate they would be doing something so radically different but holy poo poo did they drop a banger.  11. Hi-Fi Rush (Tango Gameworks) (2023) 211 points. Voted for 33 times. Appeared #1 twice. Average of 6.3  Another game where when finding artwork I was utterly enthralled by what I was seeing and the words used made me mighty curious. I suspect it will have legs.

Ah, whoops. Guess it's been couple hours since I read the Hollow Knight post. Proceed to justly clown on me until the next ranking's up.

I wish Hi Fi Rush clicked with me. I couldn't get into it at all but it's cool to see something unique and original hit such a high slot regardless.

So that was numbers 60 to 11. An absolute ton of enticement within those fantastic quotes. I have been exclusively getting words said by people who gave the highest marks to the games that made the list (so apologies if, like me, you gave Twilight Princess a 10 and it did not appear anywhere that could be quoted!) For those who want a quick summing up the games are as follows: 60. Lost Judgment 59. Neon White 58. Metroid Prime Remastered 57. Star Ocean The Second Story R 56. Outer Wilds 55. Remnant II 54. Jagged Alliance 3 53. Astlibra Revision 52. Hollow Knight 51. Live a Live 50. Hunt Showdown 49. Wo Long Fallen Dynasty 48. Citizen Sleeper 47. Signalis 46. Yakuza Like A Dragon 45. Rogue Trader 44. Like a Dragon Garden: The Man Who Erased His Name 43. Cocoon 42. System Shock Remake 41. Misericorde Volume 1 40. Dwarf Fortress SE 39. Strangers of Paradise 38. Persona 5 Royal 37. Void Stranger 36. Dead Space Remake 35. Cassette Beasts 34. Xenoblades Chronicles 3 33. Final Fantasy VII Remake 32. David the Diver 31. Pokemon Scarlet/Violet 30. Pikmin 4 29. My Time at Sandrock 28. Diablo IV 27. Ghost Trick 26. Talos Principle 2 25. Midnight Suns 24. Against the Storm 23. Elden Ring 22. Slay the Princess 21. Disco Elysium 20. Super Mario RPG 19. Pentiment 18. Pizza Tower 17. Star Wars Jedi: Survivor 16. Theatrhymtnh Final Bar Line 15. Spider-man 2 14. The Case of the Golden Idol 13. Fire Emblem Engage 12. Resident Evil 4 Remake 11. Hi-Fi Rush Some of those you have got to play. Some of those I have got to play. Two previous GOTYT winners making a great showing and Disco Elysium keeping an unbroken 5 year record of getting in the main list and scoring over 100 points each time. How does it do it? But this is not the end of the list, oh no. We have 10 left and the way they shake out will hopefully keep you smiling!
