Most Rewarding Games This Year.

Strider 2014. Never played the old strider games before and boy do i regret it after playing this game!

Having a good time is the greatest reward a game can give you. Or do you game for loot?

@Sushiglutton

Never !

And in Gaucamelee's case, the gameplay is its own reward. Its not the type of game you play to level up, to reveal more of the story or to get anything in return. It means its not Rewarding, specifically "Extrinsically Rewarding"

it means you play it because you enjoy the combat, the puzzles and the platforming, you don't need to be baited into it, you play it because you love it... Thats what fun is.... Thats what Gaucamelee is. Atleast thats why I played it.

I don't do Extrinsically Rewarding games, games that feel insecure bout themselves that they feel the need to make up for it with distractions or even worse... Games that deliberately use rewards to skate by on gameplay.

Ofcourse one could say: "Who cares, as long they enjoy the overall experience."

Binding of Isaac Rebirth, no question.

The replayability, depth and overall challenge is amazing.

Easily my favorite title of the year.

Bayonetta 2. Sure is not a hard game but getting a Pure Platinum against some of the most challenging foes is such a rewarding feeling.

Add Demon's Souls to that, although it didn't came out this year. I enjoyed it more than Dark Souls.

@Lulu_Lulu You hear that, mate!

Alien Isolation

That Illustration only shows half of how the loop works.

It is called a Positive Feed Back loop after loop. It amplifies the result with each loop. Good players will get better, bad players will get worse.

It is called a Positive Feed Back Loop after all. It amplifies the result with each loop. Good players will get better, bad players will get worse.

Alien:Isolation,just getting to a save point is extremely satisfying.

Divinity 3, Sunset OD, Forza Horizon 2.

I suppose if you play against really good people and beat them, then it is very rewarding.
