Nice writeup.

Hunt: Showdown is an extremely underrated game and deserves to be a lot bigger than it is. Either with friends, matchmaking with randoms or playing solo, it's so much fun, and all three of those ways to play is such a different experience. It's the best one of those.

@orlandodoom: You can spawn the bosses again at the same spawn points. I found out the hard way by accidentally offering another trophy for Eikthyr immediately after defeating him the first time.

@captain_insano: Been, er, solely playing solo and having a great time. The more I’ve played the more I’ve come to realise this is more of an adventure/exploration game than survival. The survival mechanics are there, but they’re not as punishing compared to other survival games so they don’t get in the way as much. Add streamlined crafting and a robust building system into the mix and you have a winner. In my opinion, it’s the best adventure/exploration game since BotW and after 25 hours I feel I’ve barely scratched the surface.

Don't usually enjoy these types of games, to be honest, but there's something about this one. Been playing for twenty something hours solo and having a great time. The pace the game opens up is really nice and the atmosphere/immersion is spot on. Haven't encountered any bugs so far and it already has more content than a lot of full priced, fully released games. Early access done right; it can only keep getting better from here.

@htr10: Yeah, that was a fun one. A shame Discord went down whilst they were playing. @rorie said he wanted to play more, let’s hope so!

The game is hugely underrated and deserves more recognition. A lot of fun both solo and co-op. It also has the best randomly generated levels I’ve played; amazing how different and fresh each match is after many, many hours of play. Best one of those since L4D.

GOTY so far for me.

I enjoyed quite a few of those games but then Risk of Rain 2 released. My GOTY so far.
