Both do different things at some of the highest levels in all of gaming. The Witcher 3's story, characters, world building & the actual world itself (specifically Novigrad and Toussaint) are probably the best in all of gaming. While Elden Ring has an incredibly deep combat system, the most interesting world to traverse, amazing visuals & some of the best boss fights ever. I think there isn't exactly a wrong choice between the two it just ultimately comes down to what you prefer more when playing games. I do think the Witcher 3 is better but I also think it has more flaws then Elden Ring, but the things it does well it just does too well to ignore in my mind (I'm probably more bias towards the Witcher because I played it in 2016 and I've always thought it was the best game ever so its probably hard to get something to overcome that, but recency bias could also play a part for the people that think Elden Ring is better).

Personally I feel like the 2018 goty isn’t an obvious win for rdr2 I really love rdr2, it has one of the best and most immersive open worlds I’ve ever played. The detail and and variety is insane. The characters a some of the best ever with all them having so much depth. But I do feel that while the plot is great about the gang struggling to stabilise and the conflict that brews, I do feel that some of the pacing at the start and around guarma isn’t the best. Same goes with how quickly the conflict at Rhodes goes. But that’s mainly due to cut content. I also think that there are a few issues with the gameplay as I feel that it can be repetitive especially with the combat. GOW for me is good because it does every aspect of the game to a great level. The story for me rivals rdr2 and the gameplay is better in my opinion but that’s because they are two very different games. GOW isn’t perfect but it does everything well. They are both different games and they each focus on something different and someone’s preferences will depend on what they look for in a game. I love both games and they have both impacted me differently and I don’t have a preference . I’m mainly just saying that it isn’t a landslide for rdr2 for me. But it comes down to what you prefer in a game.

@@firstorderblade4432 fs, the story and music of NieR is supreme, far away better than Zelda, but in terms of just being a game, Zelda is my favorite action adventure game ever made. It's probably my favorite game ever made, actually. Also the second playthrough of NieR is pretty weak comparatively to the other two until you get to chapter 9, which drags it down a bit in my eyes. Also the final Emil quest was not fun to initiate. But the story is goated, probably my second favorite in all of gaming

@@pogethedoge I assume you did the third playthrough of automata right? And got all 5 main endings? I understand why some people might not like the second playthrough because a lot of it is repeat content, but to me I see it as just more reason to play the most enjoyable game of all time for me, so I dont mind it at all. But the entirety of route C is easily the best story content ive ever seen. Playing as A2 is absolute peak, what happens to 2b and 9s is tear inducing, and the true ending is even more so

God of War was already known. the last time we had seen kratos was GoW3 and he had killed his father Zeus. and tried ending himself at the end of the game. God of war still has an amazing story in itself. Red dead’s story right off the bat was lack luster that year. it grew on people over time. now people are making edits of it. talking about how great the game was but going back to 2018 no one had really known how great the game was. so id say it’s really one of those.

Baldur's Gate 3 should not only top this list but any list ranking games, imho. Ranking it as 8 on the list feels like an insult 😅. Of course, it's all subjective, to each their own and all, but damn. 8th? It's THE greatest of all time and it just oozes quality, care, love and perfection in everything, more than anything. Personally, I'd rank all the Rockstar games low, as I've tried them all but never clicked with any of them, but knowing how well loved and objectively great and industry-changing they are, I feel like they got slots they earned. Skyrim is another fun one. It's actually kinda good not great without mods, but modded a top 10 game of all time. I preferred oblivion but Skyrim has aged better

@RemixedYoshi it falls into many traps that open world games do with pacing and burnout if you feel compelled to do as much as possible once it's available. But it's really impressive considering the limitations of Remake and the combat system has a high skill ceiling. I was good enough to get the platinum, but nowhere near what others are achieving. Low market share doesn't inhibit a game from winning, but if I'm being realistic, I'm expecting a game like Wukong to have a better chance because it's highly rated and not exclusive.
