FINALLY some love for Rise of the Ronin. I love this game so much, even if the graphics are a bit lacking. It's been my favorite game of the year and I bought it the same time I bought DD2.

[@ricardodarcangelo2437]

May I ask why?? Other than having some "cool" moments, like the gliding and grappling, I can't find a positive thing to say about it. Especially compared to TN's previous games. Actually, I'd say the game's looks are one of its high points, detailed, crisp, and great artwork.

[@TWO9_8]

@ricardodarcangelo2437 For me, it's just super fun. The boss fights and combat is awesome (especially the 1 vs 3 side mission), I loved most of the characters, and the customization was great (I liked it more than DD2 honestly). I feel like a lot of gamers are critical of games lately which is understandable, but when a game like this comes around and it's not trying to be super in-depth or completely linear it gets bashed (not saying thats what you're doing, just a generalized statement). I love it cuz it's simple. A lot of the recent games are looking to top the charts and chase gaming trends and they end up super repetitive and boring. RotR just let's you go with the flow. It knows what it is and isn't trying too hard. The story doesn't drag on with a bunch of filler missions since side content and bond building is completely optional. I also really loved Infinite Wealth and DD2, but something about RotR keeps me hooked lol.

[@FixionekPLAY]

FF7 Rebirth for me...absolute gem..had some problems with it (looking at you Chadley...) but otherwise the music, world, adventure, story, characters, combat, minigames and some of the boss battles HIT it out of the park for me. Normally im not the biggest FF fan but Rebirth is GOTY contender for me (owning physical version and steelbook).

[@drewtheunspoken3988]

It's the only new game I've played this year. But I've played Remake and Rebirth back-to-back 3 times this year.

[@ricardodarcangelo2437]

Yeah, it's a great game. It's just too bad they went crazy with the mini games. It makes it very difficult to play for longer sessions. For someone that's used to zero mini games in their games, having 5 or more per chapter is not only exasperating, it's a turn off. LOVE the actual game, but I wish there was an option to skip ALL mini games. How do y'all tolerate it? Lol

[@FixionekPLAY]

@@ricardodarcangelo2437 Oh i hated that one time where the game FORCED you to play 3 rounds of Queens Blood against 3 advanced players, or the whole "Queens Blood" tournament on the ship to advance the story so....yeah even tho i enjoyed a couple of matches and its a pretty minigame, i admite they were times when they forced into the main story and i wasnt a fan of that.

DD2 was fun af. But it has all the quest-dead ends and obscure content-locks as the first. It needed hardmode at launch. There's a million "x class is op!" videos, but... thats *every* class by mid game. Except trickster. DD hardmode is almost a new game. Not just bullet-spongier enemies, but new variants, skills, gear, limits, etc. Thats what DD2 needs.

[@threestars2164]

Easily at the bottom due to its mtx!!

[@Volyren]

@@threestars2164 uh, you never played it, did you? Know how I know? The mtx. Was a nice headline, and yeah, mtx are annoying, but... first, it wasn't mtx. Could only be bought once. Second, every, and I mean *_every_* DLC item was something you could get, in-game, within the first few hours of play. No quests bypassed, no tricks. The dlc items were basically like spending real money for a couple of potions at the start of a final fantasy game. Its something that got slapped onto the launcher for the game, by Capcom, after the game was finished. You can't even access the 'in-game store' from the game. Only the start menu. You're complaining about the artist, but the cool picture of the wizard summoning smoke elementals from his doobie got a smudge on it from the art seller.

[@MysticTheDarkElf]

Selaco is a game that really caught my attention; a love letter to FEAR in the GZDoom engine, and it's amazing. It's difficult to make a shooter where *every* weapon in your arsenal feels great and useful, but Selaco manages it. I was never at a point where I was just using one single weapon for an extended period.

[@signorellil]

I'm too surprised Selaco didn't make the cut, considering that right now is by far the surprise of the year

[@timothystensloff1663]

1. Rebirth 2. Balatro 3. Erdtree (just booting the game launched it to the top 5 for me) 4. Prince of Persia 5. Night Springs DLC Those are the only games I’ve loved this year. First half of the year has been a bit low to mid-tier for me, but the second half looks to be a huge step up.

Hellblade 2 was a masterpiece from a visual, music, storytelling, and combat perspective. I loved every chapter which unfolded and found myself more attached to Senua and her unique journey as the game went on.

Cobalt Core is in my top ten. Nothing as addictive as Balatro but the vibe/music/gameplay loop is very nice.

[@Savvasthekiller]

2024 doesn't even half compare with 2023 (at least so far)!

[@Crazyfayze]

Glad to see Rise of the Ronin getting some love, everyone crapped on it because some wonky horse animations and graphics aren't as good as GhostOT. But team ninja is basically bandai namco for soulslikes giving us tekken move lists at our disposal. Its so refreshing compared to the limited combat in many soulsbournes. Its my sleeper hit of the year.

Elden ring dlc is so good but my lvl 200 character keeps getting 2 shot by everything (i have 65 vig), even after doubling my defences and raising my attack with the scadutree blessing im doing like nothing 😭

[@ModestPavement]

Yeah renalla is ridiculously hard.

[@amitk4878]

​@@ModestPavementuse Bloodhound Fang..

[@ModestPavement]

@amitk4878 I beat her a couple days ago. Thanks though. Beat Romina as well, but now I'm stuck on Putresent Knight lol.

[@preyaskhuntia2190]

Find more scooby doo fragments, there are tons of them. Also use the hefty pots, they do a shit ton of damage, for things like putrescent knight, one pot can proc scarlet rot which eats like 40% of his healthbar.

[@ModestPavement]

@preyaskhuntia2190 thanks for the tip! I need to start crafting and using tools more. I never do.

[@Bodyknock]

4:35 Totally agree, Balatro is awesome, it's one of my most played games this year. 🙂

[@YUICHIROSENSEY]

what is the game in the thumbnail?

[@MajorKerina]

Rise of the Ronin

[@Lloydo111]

I can't believe unicorn overlord isn't here nor gran blue fantasy relink 😂😭 both are some of the best this year! FFVIIR is a goty! Its so good

[@StarAngelS95]

Stellar blade on PC would be amazing.

[@Wheeliam_Ironside]

😏

[@takerukurosawa2337]

Devs did say that it's coming

[@Erlaxis]

I'm sure it will be great on PC. Enjoyed it a lot on PS5.

[@threestars2164]

Stellar flop will thankfully be forgotten about soon.

[@Wheeliam_Ironside]

@@threestars2164 did it flop though?

[@Deomth]

Hauntii was another great release this year! Glad nine sols made it on the list though, these smaller games have been killing it with their unique styles!

[@Yarivenra]

No Granblue Fantasy Relink?

[@eaglegamerz6978]

I want to sell this channel how much money will you pay

[@BorgWolf359]

Nightingale, Enshrouded, & PalWorld are my favs so far this year for fun & innovative games!

[@micahhogan1900]

We need a stellarblade2🫡🤞👌

[@gameranxTV]

[@TheCuratorWillBQuytOperational]

I can confirm that Tekken 8 is FANTASTIC!!!!

[@sajadjamal5485]

Are you dumb?

[@PoloMoney]

@@NoshikiYTbro youre so bipolar lmao you agree with the first guy only to later agree with someone else going against the first guy 💀

[@iconicboxing91]

Glad nine sols got a shout. Enters top 3 metroidvanias i ever played. Very difficult, but once you learn the mechanics its very satisfying.

[@coopstain1728]

WAIT A SECOND.... JAKE YOU PUT HELLBLADE 2 ON HERE BUT YOU DIDNT PUT NO REST FOR THE WICKED? SERIOUSLY!?!?!

[@LWAllen]

That’s early access. No rest for the wicked is not officially released. Still Hellblade 2 shouldn’t be here.

[@LWAllen]

Damn Hades 2 on here. Nevermind.

[@dave64981]

​@@LWAllenI was going to say Enshrouded is on here too which is in early access.
