GOTY 2021
I got extreme deja vu reading the intro to my 2020 list. It feels like I could just copy-paste what I wrote there–not getting to some of the bigger games, not enjoying many of the ones I did play, having a handful of games just ready to fill the list if I needed them but not really wanting them there–and call it a day, since I feel pretty similarly this year. I wish I’d had the time and energy to try more of the games I have on my wishlist and backlog, but I again did at least manage to come up with a list of games I feel strongly about for 2021, enough so that I can consider them my top 10 games of the year.
