Pretty much my year in a nutshell

Can't believe most of the games im thinking off weren't even this year

Pretty much how I felt when I bought SMT V and went to get my rewards points on my Switch and was denied because it had been over a year. WTF? Already?

Yeah I just figured that out. Thanks. Wow 🤯

Honestly have no idea what to vote for in that category now.

If you click "Search" without entering a game then it will give you the full list to choose from. It has a general category for each one so if you do a page search in the browser for "fighting" then you can scroll down and look and see if any of those work for you.

Awesome. Capcom Fighting Collection is on this. That was a game I still sink time into. I kept thinking Strive, but that was season 2 DLC.

How to see and share picks?

My dog was murdered by a 3.5mm audio port and I will not rest until the standard is dead
I voted for a few. Hope to see Chained Echoes make the list. It is excellent.

Voted for some, but i cant say im a fan of this formula of voting, its a bit tedious and the sections are not really to my liking, but most important voted for GOTY.
I prefer last year method.

I prefer last year method.

The sections were mostly decided on by the forum feedback except for the general categories. The key part this year was to get this incorporated within the forum as utilizing prior years methods had issues of their own. For example, limiting people to one vote was nearly impossible. I imagine we will have a discussion after this is done this year to get ideas on how we can build on this and improve.

I tried to vote for some categories, but in the end everything was just "games I know" instead of games I liked or played.

I think this page could help to keep track (almost, maybe) every videogame released in 2022:

Pokemon Violet has the best gameplay of an RPG in years, but it is a technical abortion.

God of War Ragnarok is so poorly written it makes Marvel movies look like Shakespeare, its actually between Marvel and a shitty soap opera at times, with far too much downtime that is awful... so that's bad writing and bad pacing and- BEHIND YOU KRATOS poorly technically executed for a hack and slash. What a huge overhyped nothing.
Are you ok my bro?
I played Pokemon Scarlet with a group of friends and even completed the fucking dex and it's beyond my understanding how anyone can say the gameplay of that game is great and you're saying that it's even the best RPG gameplay in years. I guess it‘s different opinions and shit but can you please elaborate on that?

Also have a different opinion on GOW Ragnarok but that's just different tastes I guess.
Story + Gameplay on that game was superb and nothing released this year comes even close to that.

Overall Elden Ring + GOW Ragnarok are the big winners like everybody expected and on the picks that mattered, I picked those two.
 
Strategy games are an extinct genre now apparently. RIP 🎺



I have Midnight Suns as my GOTY, but at the same point I wouldn’t put it in the RPG category even though it has some pretty heavy elements. So basically there’s no other category for it. And what the heck does Mount and Blade 2: Bannerlord count as? I have probably played more of that than anything else this year and on console without mods, but it’s kinda RPG, kinda strategy, but more on the strategy side.

Elden Ring - Best Game, Best RPG, Most difficult

GOW Ragnarök - Best Action

Scorn - Best Adventure, Best Indie, Best Visual Style, Best UI/HUD, Best Character Design, Most Underrated

Still have a couple games I need to play more but I’m fairly sure no votes needs to be changed.

Not sure about the one vote limit. I liked seeing how people ranked their favorite games but now we’ll just see their #1 game which is often obvious for many users going by talks and platform and genre preferences. Top 3 games would be enough.

I miss a Best Racing category. And Best Action Adventure. And Best VR, at the very least, could have several VR categories.
