Katphood Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 So I just saw this: ...and I was wondering which game(s) you enjoyed the most in 2016. Me? Gotta say, despite the not so good multiplayer, DOOM was the game I had the most fun with this year. There used to be a signature here, a really cool one...and now it's gone.

Humanoid Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 I still haven't played perhaps the "big three" titles that perhaps would normally be my top contenders this year, and I doubt there's enough time left in the year to give each of them a fair shake. Those games are Mankind Divided, Civilization 6, and Dishonored 2. In the absence of those games, the title would technically default to Stardew Valley but that probably doesn't reflect my real opinion of it. So uh, yeah, I'll award 2016 GOTY sometime next year I guess. Previous award winners: 2015 - The Witcher 3 2014 - No award, worst year for new games in living memory 2013 - Monaco 2012 - XCOM: Enemy Unknown 2011 - The Witcher 2 2010 - Fallout New Vegas L I E S T R O N GL I V E W R O N G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tale Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Uncharted 4 is my current GOTY. But I have high hopes for The Last Guardian. I'm actually kind of disappointed with my own choice, frankly. No doubt it's deserving, but I wish there was at least some competition. The only other two contenders I had in mind turned out to be released in 2015. I guess I can give Blood and Wine second place for now, at least. A DLC. Tyranny get third.

Fenixp Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 (edited) 3) Blood and Wine sits over here. It might be a DLC, but it's as large as most triple A releases, so screw that. 1) DOOM, because Mick 'God' Gordon and they named him ... The Doom Slayer. 2) Dishonored 2, because in spite of technical issues, the game's utterly brilliant. It ended up being worse than the first game, nonetheless it brought some interesting gimmicks that impressed me quite a bit. Edit: Know what, I'm gonna let politics influence me: They removed Denuvo from DOOM, they did not remove Denuvo from Dishonored 2. DOOM therefore gets the first place. Take that, Bethesda, that'll show you! Edit2: As soon as Bethesda changes their minds and removes Denuvo from Dishonored 2, I'm not going to edit this post as at that point I'll have completely forgotten about it. That's ... Motivation I ... Guess. Edit3: Wait, DOOM is also by Bethesda. Hm. There, that's much better. Edited December 18, 2016 by Fenixp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IndiraLightfoot Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Dishonored 2, easy! A fantastic game!! Civ6 is really nice, but it has nothing on Dishonored 2. My early access to Torment: Tides of Numenera felt promising, but that's just me plugging for a game that won't be released until Feb 28. *** "The words of someone who feels ever more the ent among saplings when playing CRPGs" *** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gorgon Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 When are they done carving up that game so I can get the whole thing. I'm not going to buy one level for 7,99 that's retarded.

Maedhros Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Firewatch for me. Very underwhelming year in gaming compared to last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorgon Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 I dunno, nothing really stands out for 2016. I had high hopes for Xcom but it kinda fell flat compared to the reboot. I've played Doom and dishonoured 2 and yes they are good but I haven't replayed them. Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.

You'd be surprised. Each level is laden with content. It's actually a little overwhelming at first. You can also buy the first season in its entirety now, which is very definitely a full games worth.

Humanoid Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Guessing the Squeenix holiday surprise box will contain the first episode at least, if you want to try it that way. L I E S T R O N GL I V E W R O N G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexx Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 (edited) Is there a way in Steam to see how many hours I've played certain games this year? Because right now I'm pretty sure New Vegas would win again, maybe closely behind ArmA3. I don't even remember any big game from 2016. Maybe The Division (somewhat) or Dark Souls 3, but I played none of these games extremely long. Oh wait, there is MGS5. I guess that's as close to my top game of 2016 as it can get. /Edit: Holy ****, MGS5 actually was released in 2015. So nevermind that then, I guess.

Hurlshort Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Xcom 2 and Civ 6 are the ones I will probably be replaying in the years to come. Mankind Divided was also pretty amazing and kept my rapt attention until the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bartimaeus Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Undertale is my game of the year. Technically, it came out in 2015, but I played it this summer: nothing else gets even within striking distance for me. Quote How I have existed fills me with horror. For I have failed in everything - spelling, arithmetic, riding, tennis, golf; dancing, singing, acting; wife, mistress, whore, friend. Even cooking. And I do not excuse myself with the usual escape of 'not trying'. I tried with all my heart. In my dreams, I am not crippled. In my dreams, I dance.

Hurlshort Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 (edited) I feel like I'm totally missing something with Undertale. It didn't grab me at all. edit: Just tried it again. I don't get it. Edited December 18, 2016 by Hurlshot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrath of Dagon Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Underrail for me, although technically it came out at the end of 2015. Brilliant game. Also I liked Technomancer and Dungeon Rats. Generally I'm years behind on when I start new games, just started Witcher 3 now. 1 "Moral indignation is a standard strategy for endowing the idiot with dignity."
