Ron's Top 5 Games of 2018
This is probably the hardest list I've had to make so far. I spent a huge portion of 2018 playing nothing but World of Warcraft... to the point where I played almost nothing else until around November...
One big takeaway from this year is that, like the last two years, World of Warcraft: Legion made the list. At this point I'm comfortable saying that Legion is the best WoW expansion I've ever played and probably the best expansion Blizzard has ever done. The amount and breadth of the content in Legion is absolutely staggering. Everything from single-player content to 5 man content all the way up to raid content was great. Legion is the first expansion where a lot of my friends were able to stay interested long enough to form a raid group and clear it.
Unfortunately, Battle for Azeroth isn't making the list... if Legion is the best then BFA is a strong contender for the worst. It's only about 4 months old at this point but I've already basically checked out. Our raid team cleared the raid multiple times and then went on hiatus in early November. The next raid doesn't open until mid-January... in the mean time there is nothing to do. That in and of itself feels bad... but I'm not holding my breath that there will be much to do even when the next raid opens.
With that said the following list represents the best games I played this year.
