What was the best game this year, or hell, this decade? Post about what really hit you, imps.

I for one, loved Outer Wilds. Flying around in a space ship, discovering mysteries, confusing people into thinking I liked Fallout, and getting people really mad about the epic store, it all struck a chord with me.

Witcher 3 is my current all time favorite. Writing, atmosphere, music, the detail in the world, if the gameplay were a bit better it would be the Perfect Game.

Settle this once and for all for me: should I play 1 & 2 first?

My favorites of games that came out this year were RE2 remake, Pathologic 2, Death Stranding, Three Houses and Mario Maker 2. MM2 will continue to get updates and tweaks so I'll be playing for a long time.

Pathologic 2 was the best impulse buy triggered by a gog.com email flier I've ever made.

Bloodborne is game of the decade...no question

I think Dark Souls is. Not just because it is a fine wine of gaming, but without it, we would not have had Bloodborne.

staring at a burning candle thinking about all the good games this last decade has brought us while listening to enya - only time saying a quiet simple prayer for each one that has brought its light into my gaming life smiling at the portrait of Saint Iwata-sama whispering thank you

I think the real hosed up part is that the natural limitation of the human brain mean that there's surely great games that I loved dearly... but have forgotten.

You can make an argument that Horizon 4 is one of the better open worlds of all time.

goty is too close to call between Death Stranding and Sekiro. Dark Souls cleanly takes the crown for game of the decade...honorable mention goes out to monster hunter: world for being especially impactful to me personally

Many different games can be game of the year.

Any of those end of decade lists are pointless when it comes to best game etc. The game of the decade is dark souls not because it’s “the best” but because of how completely it’s affected game development and descriptions in the decade hence

The game of the decade is under no circumstances the last of us, and anyone who suggests it is should be investigated for connections to missing women's cases in their area.
