My GOTY 2017
2017 will either go down in history as "2016: Part II" or else "The Year Videogames Freed Us From Our Collective Political Anxieties". It was the year that I, along with many others, realized that – yes – we actually would like everything ported to the Switch, thanks. As a person with a public transit commute, this list is Switch-heavy, so there's that. Enjoy.
My criteria for this list:
- Games that released in 2017 (even if they existed on another platform).
- Games I played a lot of* in 2017...
- (Or games I played enough of to get an overall impression, where applicable.)
* Relative to my available time. Some of you monsters need Yeezus. Looking at you, 900-moons-in-one-week folk in #marioodyssey-hype UGBD channel. Drink water.
