Games I played in 2017
These are a few of my favourite things (and a few that made me sad).
List items
-
Oh, Bioware! You messed up, you messed up so bad. For someone who loved the original trilogy for its ambitious sci-fi worldbuilding, the great cast of characters and overall aesthetic, this disappointed on all fronts. Just left me with a general feeling of sadness.
-
Yoko Taro and Platinum's magnum opus - a masterpiece. Also made me sad, but in a good way!
-
Best game ever? Quite possibly.
-
A lovely little old school throwback, with some razor sharp modern design elements.
-
My first Persona game. Now I get it. Even if I couldn't be bothered to sink the required 100+ hours into finishing it.
-
The game of the hour that will deservedly place at the top of many people's game of 2017. And for many years to come.
-
Thoroughly charming metroidvania that kicked my ass.
-
What a good game! A very good one even, with a surprisingly interesting story and a breathtaking world.
-
And the award for "Game that made me feel most like a dum-dum in 2017" goes to...
-
11 years on, still the best Final Fantasy game since VI.
-
-
How not to make a metroidvania, sadly. For the opposite, see Steamworld Dig 2.
-
Supergiant's best game yet. Long may they reign.
-
-
Nintendo turns the charm up to 11, yet again.
-
A charming classic that makes the most of the series' strong points while minimizing the tiresome bits, like the grind.
-
A fantastic 60 hour experience that's best enjoyed as such.
-
A lovely little metroidvania.
-
-
Welcome back Team Ninja, you were missed. What a killer combo, Ninja Gaiden's lightning fast action combined with From Software's punishing rpg masterpieces.
-
Solid little game, even if it pales in comparison to the numbered entries in the series. Here's hoping it's not the last game to bear the Dishonored name.

Best co-op cooking game.
