I can't comprehend FF7 not being number one, nevermind not even being in the top 10. Game was amazing.

@neometal89: Would it be any less boring with this game?

I think we're lucky, this year was excellent and full of great games.

I'm still working my way through S.T.A.L.K.E.R 2 and, if you asked me - which you didn't, of that I am well aware😁, that game is way tf overrated. I think it's on these types of lists because, well, look at its competition.

The only game that they covered in this that had me going, "Hmm... that looks fun", would be Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown. If anyone's played it, let me know what you thought of it please.

@liquiddaylight: Prince of Persia is great. One of the best games I played this year. It's a metroidvania that has new ideas and pushes the genre forward.

@Koopatrol: Nice. Thank you.

I recently finished Steamworld Dig 2, which I absolutely loved, and that's got me looking into this vein of games more.

@liquiddaylight: Stalker hasn’t learned much in the 18 years since Shadow of Chernobyl came out, and I think a lot of what was novel and immersive about its gameplay then has become more clunky and frustrating today.

@mogan: That's too bad. There are things I really like about the game; it's the reason I'm as far as the fight with Faust which isn't going too well due to only getting around 25 FPS. I may need to resort to unconventional means to get past this part.

Yeah, clunky is a good way to describe it. Even navigating the menus drives me to drink.
