Avatar is definitely an easy pick. The first season is very kid friendly and it does take a little while to pick up, but once it does its the best show ever.
I really don't play games much anymore, I just lack the drive to play anything for more than hour or two, which is why roguelites have become the only thing I really play these last few years. The only exceptions are Zelda games, Fromsoft games, and Hollow Knight.
I've been slowly making progress through Terraria since getting that game in summer of 2011. I just pop in every now and then when I get the itch to play it. Think I've put over 500 hours into it, and still am not that close to beating all the bosses.
I also have been slowly making my way through Breath of the Wild after beating the game a couple years ago, trying to finish the good side quests and the dlc. Not sure if I'm going to now that the sequel is about to be out. But I also bought it on WiiU and the controller I got struggles to hold charge so it just turns off sometimes if it's not plugged in a certain way, so it is really annoying to play my WiiU now.
Hollow Knight: Silksong and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom are sequels to two of my favorite games ever and the two best games of 2017. So those are the obvious picks for me. I feel like there's no way that Silksong is going to be bad, whereas Zelda is a much bigger question mark for me. I guess we'll see how much is changed and if it's as impressive as Breath of the Wild in a couple months.
Hades 2 was a completely unexpected announcement and I can't wait to play it. I feel like it'll just supplant Hades 1 for me considering I've done most of the major stories in Hades, and the rest would take me years to see so I'll probably just look up the endings when the sequel comes out and only play that. But who knows, maybe it'll be different that I still want to play Hades 1 occasionally.
Resident Evil 4 Remake should be pretty good if the last few RE games are an indication, but I doubt I will enjoy it as much as the original. That game's pacing, set pieces and cheesy dialouge are just impossible to replicate.
The Wolf Among Us 2 is an interesting one. I thoroughly enjoyed the first one. The setting and characters were really well done, and I really like murder mysteries and conspiracies, so I loved it. I almost ended up reading the comics because I enjoyed it so much, which is something only the Witcher games have also made me consider doing. Cautiously optimistic about this one.
Most of the games I keep installed are roguelikes I am slowly making progress in over the course of years. Stuff like The Binding of Isaac Rebirth, Nuclear Throne, Spelunky and Hades. Sometimes I just get the urge to do a run or two, so they'll always stay installed.
Hollow Knight will always remain installed because I intend to go back and fully complete the dlc at some point, but likely never will.
The only other game I need installed is Terraria. I've been playing that game for over a decade and still haven't gotten close to beating all the bosses. I get the urge every now and then to play it for a couple days, then won't touch it for months. But someday I'll hopefully beat it lol.
@bisonhero: The Binding of Isaac is a vastly improved version of the original, which I already loved! It fixed so much that was wrong with the original and vastly expanded on it over the years with various expansions. It is my third favorite game ever, and my favorite roguelite, which is probably the genre I've played the most of the last ten years. I've probably watched almost as much of this as I have played it. I just wish you enjoyed it as much as I and plenty of others have.
Idk looks kinda crappy but I'm sure kids will like it. But I think the sonic movie looked like crap and people seemed to think that was okay so who knows. I was happy to see Rainbow Road though lol. Hopefully the Wa bros show up.
I love a good rom com, and this hits all the right notes. I really love Salma Hayek and the latin elements in the movie. I hope to find a girl like that someday lol
Bastion's last hour is one of the best I can remember. Absolutely the best ending theme I've ever heard in a game.
The Walking Dead Season 1's end was also pretty incredible. It was the only game that made me cry until...
God of War Ragnarok made me cry in the first 20 dang minutes. I lost my dog that I had for 15 years a couple months ago. So, watching Atreus have to say goodbye to Fenrir really fucking hit me in the feels in a way I was not expecting. Killing a dog or any pet really is the easiest way to make me cry but I've never seen a game do that.
Definitely between How I Met Your Mother and Friends for me. Probably my two favorite shows, though Avatar and Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood are definitely in that conversation as well.
Definitely the mapping system in Hollow Knight and the weapon degradation in Breath of the Wild. I thought both were implemented well. The mapping system in Hollow Knight encouraged exploration and I never felt lost in the game. None of the areas are that big. The weapon degradation system encouraged creative experimentation during combat encounters, using the games various interlocking systems.
