These games look so good but I am worried that over half of these will be delayed into not releasing until 2023 or even 2024. It seems that is the formula with most ambitious games nowadays

[@Jayll1984]

I quite liked the first Avatar game. It also had an option to defend or take over the planet. Build outposts or something. Quite curious how this game will play out

[@Del-Canada]

I was a beta tester for State of Decay. Back before vehicles even had storage. Had to use the "rucks in trucks" mod and place each ruck into your truck and drive them back really slowly to your base. If you hit things out drove too fast they would fly out and you'd have to stop to put them back in but you'd also need to pull your truck up to something you could stand on to get into the back of the truck. Was fun but frustrating. Nice to see how far the game has come.

[@TuffMelon]

Ironically I'm interested in Avatar because its a game that may actually benefit from Ubisofts open world methodology. In their other games it's problematic because its usually so slow to get from point to point, but unless they scale the world in Avatar to be ridiculously big, being able to fly around it would support the size of the world. Sure, itll probably still have the issue of having repetitive locations and so on, but I can deal with that.

[@JohnDee633]

I don’t feel that way at all. I think Avatar will be great. But I love the ghost recon games, I really like the division, assassins creed. I think it’s just cool to hate on big gaming comps for some odd reason.

[@Orlando-dy8yd]

Ubisoft's open worlds are fucking dire though.

[@oasistu]

@@JohnDee633 my opinion (or atleast pre-release excitement) of big gaming comps in general has gone down. It feels like so many games are coming out that just bring nothing new to the table, and this is especially true for Ubisoft. I'm not going to tell anyone else what they should think about certain games or their respective companies, but for me I just think Assassins creed and Far cry is a very tired out game template which Ubisoft have - similar to series like CoD or Fifa which bring very little new and original things to the table. Although a lot of my all time favourite games are perhaps quite niche, like Factorio, Kenshi and Mount & Blade so maybe its just that my tastes don't align with the mainstream.

[@jack-of-all-trades1234]

I wish the video would have told us which platforms these games would be featured on.

[@chrisparker5816]

@@oasistu As someone that has played just about everything, personally I feel like there's a time and place to play that predictable AAA stuff too,. For me co-op gameplay is my number one thing I require more than it needing to be a novel masterpiece. My 8 year old just played Fifa 22 on PS5 for first time. He was floored by how exciting it was. Despite loving them, these days I don't have much time to play games, much less by my lonesome. I need to get some quality time in with my buddy or my son as well. That said, I freaking LOVED Assassin's Creed Black Flag. The seafaring and ship combat was just so much freaking fun. So I'm really looking forward to Skull and Bones... if it ever comes out and has co-op of course.

[@Timmymtd]

This channel is so kickass. Thank you for another great showcase.

[@AyeYoALBERT]

I feel like this is just a me thing but I love open world rpgs. I think their amazing with their creativity, imagery, and adventure. The only thing I personally dislike and find it hard to game is First person vs Third person view. Idk what it is but I feel like some games in the open world RPG realm deserve a Third person option with POV scroller. Idk maybe it’s just me but me personally I’d be a more variety gamer if this small thing was added to most/all open world games.

[@aKa-_-George]

I'm personally super excited for Hogwarts Legacy. I'm not even a big Harry Potter fan but I KNOW for a fact that the entire concept of Harry Potter sounds like the best open world rpg idea ever

[@johnmurray1207]

I was hyped for it too until i found out it was single player only :(

[@aKa-_-George]

@@johnmurray1207 Same. The multiplayer would ba amazing but I'm also kinda glad that there isn't one for now. There's rumors that they might add it later on to prolong the game's lifespan tho. But for now, I'm super glad that it doesn't have multiplayer because that just means that the game, missions and story are being developed the way that is intended by the developers. No need to have an entire cosmetic store that revolves around the entire game and useless boring filler missions made for grinding the game's currency. Or at least, that's the way I see it considering all of the awful multiplayer games we've been getting, including rdr2

That's why techland delayed it an extra 2 months it was to fix as many bugs and glitches as possible

[@DeadVoivod]

I think it looks gorgeous and I'm definitely gonna give it a try although I had my problems with the first. I'm really struggling when it comes to 1st person parkour, had to stop the first game after 10-12 hours, got quite frustrated. Same for me was with the 2 Dishonored games, started both, quit both half way through, for me 1st person and stealth is not working either, sadly. The last Deus Ex was just playable enough for me due to the shooting sections, and I eventually finished it.

[@stanettiels7367]

@@DeadVoivod I know what you mean. I was frustrated at first with the first one. I would be stood there jumping at a wall and not grabbing the ledge. Then I realised you have to literally look at everything you want to grab on to. Then once I figured that out the game and parkour became easier and much more fluid. I’d be travelling really quickly over the map, with familiarity helping even more.

Great list. Never heard of Dokev, but the art style looks amazing. Kind of looks like a little kid GTA game, but not based in reality. That and Crimson Desert I might have to keep an eye on. Kind of want to try all of these, but the reality is I might only be able to play a few. Dying Light 2 and Gotham Knights have my interest now, maybe Saints Row if the character creator is good. I will get to Breath of the Wild 2 eventually since the original is my favorite game of all time. A lot of people are down on Rockstar, but I think the GTA 5 Expanded Edition is going to shock people. I'm imaging the game is going to be like if the game came out this year instead of 2013. It might have some new bells and whistles people aren't expecting.

the developers said this game is not for posers who thought the previous games didnt look interesting.

[@diligencehumility6971]

@@fireboy1996 Alright then Nazi boy, I won't look at your beloved game because I didn't find the previous interesting, makes total sense. Of course you should make decisions for me, makes total sense

[@tom2gunzbombadil689]

SoD 3 and that obsidian rpg Avowed are top of my list. And of course Star field. Stalker 2 and SSKTJL both got pushed i think.

40 years of seeing games evolve I have to say ‘Horizon Zero Dawn’ totally blew me away! AC Valhalla was vast but nothing has come close to HZD! I’m a 60 year old female game fanatic who’s never lost the love for gaming!

Horizon Zero Fun has nothing to offer besides the super graphics, raise up your low standards.

Bruh, I never thought I'd see the day that nearly all of the upcoming open world games would look so good.

[@liloloveless]

With a few of these games already released, i can still say this list holds up.

[@freebeeee]

There is an older Avatar game as well. Third-person shooter. It was decent too. I feel like most people don't realize this.

[@arthurdurham]

2022 looks like it'll shape up to be a great year for gaming. After the lackluster previous 2 years, I'm very excited

[@kaihawley]

Yeah I believe 2022 will be the year for gaming as all the great games from 2021 have been delayed aswell into 2022

[@bradlasalle2888]

Until at least half the games on this list don't even release in 2022 lol

Same here , hopefully they don’t disappoint

[@numberbndl3763]

Sorry, didn’t realize looking forward to a game would offend you so much

[@luxury_kingdom7364]

Anyone concerned about these games being delayed, just remember that most of us would rather have a well-optimized and near-completed game than have it launch early and be disappointing (CD Projekt RED's (creator of CyberPunk 2077) huge mistake when launching).

[@sane7527]

Cyberpunk runs pretty good now cdpr did make a mistake but has nearly patched it now making them the studio with 2 great open world games witcher 3 and cyberpunk

[@BoY860]

[@mathewwallis2863]

Thank you so much for putting markers in at each entry. I can tell immediately if I'm going to like a game or not and sitting through the review of something wouldn't like would have been a pain! I think I might like TWO of the 20. Looks like I'll be playing AC Black Flag, LA Noire, and RDR again, in 2022.

[@joelsmart1568]

Horizon Zero Dawn is a modern masterpiece. I had been struggling to get into a "big game" for a while, but Horizon sucked me in and I kept playing it near daily until I 100%'d it. Needless to say, Forbidden West is BY FAR my most anticipated game.

[@osamabashir5646]

It's really immersive

[@prestonm9890]

Question: I’ve been wanting to try Zero Dawn and I’m on the verge of buying it. Is it worth it? Does it have a solo player story line? Sorry for the questions, I’ve don’t some research on it. But I was also trying to get peoples feedback and opinions on it. Any feedback is appreciated!

[@osamabashir5646]

@@prestonm9890 yes it's a single player game with a great story. The world itself is really immersive. As for if u should buy it or not it totally depends on one's taste. Watch some gameplay on KZbin and then decide yourself

[@prestonm9890]

@@osamabashir5646 I appreciate the feedback. I have been watching videos and it seems really cool and something I would like. I play all kinds of games. But I am mainly looking for a solo player game I can really get into. Thank you for the info!

Sonic Frontiers can fill the hole in our hearts, for this is the closest that we're ever going to get to a Sonic Adventures. I'm also looking forward to Forspoken, Crimson Desert, Horizon Forbidden West, Elden Ring, Dokei V looks pretty interesting, too. I made a grave error with not getting Breath of the Wild 1, so I've decided that I'm gonna get both. Saints Row V is a hit or miss though.

I wanna want Saints Row 5, but unless we see some genuine gameplay I don't know If I'll be as interested. Like, I don't think they can get away with the zaniness of SR3/4 unless they build up to it, and if they just start off with us having some crazy shit I feel it won't be quite as entertaining.
