Olli Olli World.

They need to make it so you can completely remove dialogue at the start of levels though and not press the skip button.

Game is excellent though.

For what it's worth, I enjoyed HFW more than ER as a whole, but there is no way in fuck that the top Sony exclusive is hidden. Also it is a gem that needed more polishing. It was buggy at launch and still buggy after the first 2 or 3 patches.

i remember zero dawn back then also not catching any bigger audience. i admit, i played HZD in 2020 and was absolutely floored. i played through the maingame+DLC in 100 hours and almost platinum'd it.
best game on ps4.

 

[Drizzlehell]

Seems like GRID Legends came and went without making any waves but I put quite a lot of hours into it. It's really fun.

Could be because it got sandwiched between some of the biggest releases of the year, including Gran Turismo 7. It didn't have a chance against those other games.

I haven't heard anyone talk about this one. Been a little curious.

It's very fun, very high quality and pretty addictive

 

[reksveks]

For me, it's Norco

 

[Y0ssarian]

The hidden gem is Digimon Survive considering there is no gameplay footage yet and it releases in 2 months time

 

[Ceadeus]

It's a remaster but Shadow Man Remastered.

I really hope Nightdive studio to work on many more remaster

 

[stn]

FF: Stranger of Paradise. Definitely fits the bill. Had some very clear flaws but the combat was still good.

 

[manfestival]

Elden Ring

I'll definitely buy it once it has a good sale. I really like Nioh so it can only be good.

 

[MasterDerico]

 

[Beer Baelly]

Cyberpunk 2077 next gen edition

 

[Psychostar]

I've genuinely been tracking this game since it's release and am so excited we are actually getting it this year. I hope it's at least decent!

 

[Roberts]

If we are talking about hidden gems, then, yes, Nobody Saves the World.

Edit: Infernax, Tunic and Weird West are great too.

 

[JCK75]

I've really been enjoying Core Keeper.

 

[Psychostar]

Death's Door was great. Strongly recommend it!

 

[Labadal]

One of my favorite western rpgs in recent years was released late in 2021. It is on par with Gothic 1 and 2. If you are a fan of the series, this is a must play. If this isn't overlooked, I don't know what is. It doesn't have English voice acting, but the Polish voice acting is well made, or you can play without any VA at all.

Another great game is Knights of the Chalice 2. It might not have good Steam reviews, but the turn-based combat is great. Really challenging, but also a great deal of fun. Turn-based, party-based, and handcrafted encounters. The game uses the OGL 3.5, the set of rules at the root of Dungeons & Dragons 3.5, a role-playing game from Wizards of the Coast.

 

[Maiden Voyage]

Toem for me right now. Just started yesterday. It’s a great game to play while high and relaxing.

 

[TheMan]

Triangle Strategy, no doubt.

Citizen Sleeper is going to be skipped by 99.99% of people but it's really pretty great. A very well made time management / choice / visual novel sci-fi game. I haven't been able to put it down.

I've had my eye on ANNO: Mutationem, but waiting for a sale. Can't say if it's good or not but it looks cool.

I’m seriously considering getting my switch fixed so I can play TS and Metroid

 

[Punished Miku]

Those are seriously some of the best games of the last two years. Metroid was my GOTY last year.

 

[N4WW4FV2]

Death's Door was great. Strongly recommend it!

100%ed this game twice. Xbox and PC. Timeless masterpiece.

 

[Calling 911 Melts Beams]

starfield is such a hidden gem that there is no gameplay footage of it

 

[Ladioss]

Haven't played them yet but I have high hopes for The Centennial Case and the new Pocky & Rocky.

 

[Shifty1897]

Triangle Strategy, hopefully more people will jump onboard with the inevitable Steam release in the future.

Yes, my vote also goes to The Chronicles of Myrtana: Archolos.

 

[Arthimura]

GhostWire: Tokyo.

 

[bootaski]

Jett: the far shore. 5 hours in, the world design and aesthetic are pure elevation.

 

[shubik]

GhostWire: Tokyo.

Why would you recommend it? Everything I have heard so far is that the world although beautiful is very shallow and the game seems to be really repetitive with weak combat mechanics.

 

[KàIRóS]

I'm having a blast playing this budget JRPG right now, the combat is grindy but surprinsingly fun, and there's a cute doggo as a party member, you can equip the doggo with guns xD

 

[Markio128]

Only because it’s relatively new to PS5, but Paradise Killer is pretty damn cool.

 

[CitizenZ]

Highly, highly recommend both though wait for sale on Hellslave its over priced IMO

 

[I collect VHS tapes]

 

[Efren is G.O.A.T.]

Elden Ring for sure.

 

[Soapbox Killer]

Tunic might be a Game of the Year contender and by that metric, it is slept on.

 

[Feel Like I'm On 42]

Jett: the far shore. 5 hours in, the world design and aesthetic are pure elevation.

Really? This got such middling review scores but there was a time where I was all in on this ...

 

[Classicrockfan]

unpacking

 

[geary]

King Arthur: A Knight’s Tale

 

[Freeman76]

Ravenous devils.

Very short game but but was really addictive and well made while it lasted.

Honestly this looks more interesting than most games I've seen this year.

You can tell the devs put a lot of thought and care into it. The gameplay can be a bit clunky at times but the story and presentation are very good.

Finding a in store PS5.

 

[AJUMP23]

Sniper elite 5 is a lot of fun.

 

[winjer]

 

[Captain Toad]

 

[rofif]

simple, short, linear and very relaxing.

I forgot this came out!
I loved the first one. This is is also good ?

 

[rofif]

Jett: the far shore. 5 hours in, the world design and aesthetic are pure elevation.

I tried. I loved the beginning but then it's all about this little ship refueling and I got tired of it

 

[Banjo64]

Any fantasy adventure games that people are aware of that invoke the feelings of yesteryear like Kena, Spyro etc?

 

[NinjaBoiX]

Death’s Door is fantastic, although I’ve yet to finish it.

 

[CrimsonSquall]

I want to play Triangle Strategy so damn bad but I dont want to buy it to play on my gfs switch, I want it on PS5
