Too much negativity going on, let's all say a positive thing about a game we've been playing!

Immortals Fenyx Rising has incredible comic relief and removed most of the things I hated from Breath of The Wild
I finally picked up Fall Guys a few days ago and I've been having a blast with it. Totally worth my $15 already.
The hud and aiming in Deadspace are really cool and more games should use that kimd of style for increasing immersion.
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles is a lot of fun in multiplayer, and is really chill. Don't sleep on it just because they botched local multiplayer.
The depth of humanity portrayed in Miles Morales was really moving and unexpected. It is one of the most empathetic games I've ever played. There are multiple antagonists that you identify with and want the best for. It is so solid. For a game I kept my expectations in check for, I came away really emotional over the way it examines forgiveness.
Beautiful game.
Beautiful game.
Genshin Impact is a beautiful game, even on mobile. And the OST is perfect for the game it is. It's also a game that shows that more traditional gaming is possible on mobile with few compromises. I think everyone should give it a shot.
Dirt5 is seriously one of the most enjoyable racing games I've ever experienced. It's easily top 5 if not top 3 or higher.
Code Vein is actually a pretty good Souls-like game. While the women character designs are more than a bit of "fan-service," it's been a nice follow-up to Demon's Souls for me.
Assassin's Creed Valhalla is pretty epic IMO. I'm "only" about 25 hours in but it is probably my favorite AC game to date (I've played all the mainline games except Odyssey). Eivor is the best AC protagonist.
Age of Calamity is stupid good fun if not a "Deep" game.

Urbosa is exactly as awesome as you'd want her to be in Hyrule Warriors Age of Calamity (ie. extremely awesome).
Demon's Souls still holds up remarkably well and has some of the tightest level design of Miyazaki's games.
The title drop in Ghost of Tsushima is great. Bit of story, a bit of backstory, a bit of tutorial, bit more story - now ride....and up comes the title card as you swish through the grass on your horse.
That's good to hear, my son wanted it so I got it for him for Christmas.
The Link's Awakening remake has a delightful art style and is as fun to play as it was two decades ago.
This is on my radar, but as someone who felt like BOTW was closer to being a 7/10 than a 10/10 and overall thought it was good, but definitely not a masterpiece (I didn't like the lack of themed dungeons, felt shrines would've been alright had they not all had the same visual look, but overall got bored with them quickly, and didn't like the simple narrative and enemy variety), what exactly did it fix for you?
I have been playing EU4 for years and despite all Paradox's shenanigans, it's such a great game still after all this time. So many possibilities, options and global views.
"This is Commander Sheppard and this is my favorite Strategy Game on the Citadel!"
Separately, also playing GoT now and the visuals and combat feel is just amazing. I threw in couple of Kurosawa movies just because in between some sessions.

Bioshock is still a fantastic game after all these years. Rapture is one of the best settings in any game I've ever played.
I'm still playing Animal Crossing: New Horizons about half an hour every day, usually first thing in the morning with breakfast. It feels a little like meditation, completing a few simple chores gets my mind in a place to keep accomplishing things, and it's super fun to see the world slowly progress. I have avoided buying / trading with other players for the most part so I'm still finding lots of new stuff too. I appreciate the slow burn of it all.
Half life alyx is amazing and made me smile how second nature the flick and grab movement worked. So slick to carry a grenade in one hand, throw it, grab a med needle, insert it in myself all the while I'm shooting off at some head crabs coming for me. I miss half life so much. The sound effects so good
Minecraft Dungeons is super fun playing with the family. It reminds me of Gauntlet Legends on the 64 with my buddies.
Kingdom Hearts (2, at this current moment) is extremely charming, I can totally understand how people who grew up with it absolutely love it, in spite of itself sometimes.
'A Short Hike' put a smile on my face this year and you folks should all be giving it a try. It's a charming little gem and almost nobody knows about it!
