The problem with Starfield is the things NPCs asks you to do would only make sense in a medieval setting. Those "talk to [person]" quests where you travel to another planet, talk to [person], then travel back to the 1st planet, would only make sense in a future where phones somehow don't exist.

I feel the System Shock remake doesnt get enough praise for how faithful it is yet brings a new experience with a newer engine and great care to detail. One of my favorite immersive sims ever

[garryarganis]

i didnt expect robocop to be so much fun, moving around slowly ( since you're robocop) i was kinda worried about it, but the game plays very well, the graphics are great, the recreation of police station is great, and the way they captured the chaos and anarchy in the city is insanely well done, overall a very solid game worth being on the list, im glad you guys agree too !

So sad not seeing The Talos Principle II on many of these lists. (It's a great list though, I'm just sad that Talos II doesn't get the recognition it deserves).

[MrHellknightimp]

You talked about Dave the Diver, and I immediately thought Dredge better be on this list. Praise Cthulhu

[TheNuclearDust]

A nice mention for Dead Island 2 is that the gore system is one of a kind. Not sure if the system they use is only within their engine but its just really great.

I see that the best was saved for last. Barotrauma is an absolute gem of a game, that never fails to entertain me. With friends it is one of the most hilarious and fun videogame experiences.

Bg3 is a generational game that will be talked about for years for me. I put it with chrono trigger, kotor, and witcher 3 in terms of how a game can change how certain types of role-playing will be done in the future. It's amazing an one of the best games ever made.

I’m just glad we got another year of Falcon, Jake and the rest of Gameranx. Nice 👍🏾.

[jeloong]

Glad Dead Island 2 is getting recognized. I loved the game I spent about a hundred hour slaughtering zombies :)

[noog]

Showing bomb rush cyberfunk some love, much respect

[abysss]

Starfield and Diablo 4 being so high in the list is straight up bullshit. Guess gameranx is getting bought more easily these days huh?

[ThatJuiceBoxx]

Dave the diver and Dredge being included is great

[crazychainsaw]

Dave the Diver was one of the few single player games in years i actually stayed up late playing. Despite having all the characteristics of grindy games I don't like yet because of it's charm and the way it's broken up and each activity supports others. The timing of how it introduces everything is just excellent. The boss fights were way too easy, stupid easy but other than that if you want a change of pace i'd recommend Dave the Diver even if you generally are turned off by singleplayer games.

[sybow]

Not even Talos Principle 2? In my opinion, its beautiful.

[bwbkjrl]

I played Expeditions Rome and Suzerain last year and they were both beyond great. Really suggests anyone who likes historical settings and love having multiple endings. I honestly find few games mentioned in @gameranx that are like that, following you guys for around a year now

[Nestand]

I really love how much gameranx folks appreciate Lies of P, Incredible game

[RvkKJ]

Guys please try Laika: Aged through Blood. It's a bullet time, biking based shooter that has some insane art, amazing melancholic music and a touching story

It's an indie game and could be done in a few hours. Please don't miss it and more people need to hear about the game.

[BigMacAttack]

My favorite game this year had easily been bomb rush cyberfunk. I loved jet set radio future when I first played it on the og Xbox, so it's spiritual successor has been so great.

[panic]

This year was so huge they needed a list of 30!
