GOTY 2012

With the inclusion of the DLC—especially the Citadel DLC—, I have to push this up a notch. It's not perfect, but the good far outweighs the bad and I still love the world, characters and gameplay.
I had ranked this in 9th place initially, having reached the first Bell, but after finally muscling through to the end, I understand how it got to be ranked so highly on so many other lists. The world design, the scale, the open-ended gameplay and feeling of triumph when it all "clicks" is wonderful. It's not my favorite style of game, but I'm glad I stuck with it.
