Did I lose consciousness at the end for a minute, because it seemed like Persona 5 was the clear winner for about 45 minutes and then right at the end it loses to Cuphead?
I think Zelda is an incredible game, but I suspect the reason it is hard to get into any of the "Best Of" categories so far is because a lot of the experiences in that game are unique to each player.
Something like Nier can and will resonate with people in different ways and intensities. It's okay if you didn't have the same experience with it as someone else, but there's no reason to try to elevate your position or opinion as greater than another person's.
