85 Games of 2019 I Wish I Played

I played a grand total of three games that came out in 2019 that wasn't something I could get my hands on for free. Four if you include sitting on the couch yelling at my sister while she played Untitled Goose Game. It's been a tight year on the 'ol wallet and stress/depression/anxiety didn't really allow me to play the games I did have anyway.

But if I could do it over again? With unlimited time, no responsibilities, and access to every game? These would be the games I would go back to.

UPDATE: Added a few FIFTEEN omissions that could not be ignored.

Katana Zero

1. Katana Zero

#1 with a bullet... redirected by your sword. Rest of the list has no order.

Fire Emblem: Three Houses

2. Fire Emblem: Three Houses

Gonna be waiting a lot longer for this due to wanting to play with an actual plethora of gay relationship options. Do your best, modding community!

Judgment

3. Judgment

I have so many Yakuza games to play first. So many.

Fantasy Strike

4. Fantasy Strike

Fighting game I wanted to play most from 2019, but never got to.

Slay the Spire

5. Slay the Spire

Now that it's out of early access and it's on the Switch? GIMME! You know... once a sale comes around...

Dragon Quest Builders 2

6. Dragon Quest Builders 2

I really want to play a Minecraft-esque game with more direction because Minecraft bores me. A healthy dash of classic Dragon Quest monsters and tropes is very enticing.

Away: Journey to the Unexpected

7. Away: Journey to the Unexpected

The animation in this game blows my mind. I don't care if it ends up being mediocre or even bad, if I get to experience that art first hand, that's a worthwhile experience right there.

Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice

8. Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice

The From Soft souls-like-esque game that I want to play the least (and I already have a few of them to go through still). Doesn't mean I don't want to play it.

Code Vein

9. Code Vein

fuck me up, anime dark souls

Jenny LeClue: Detectivu

10. Jenny LeClue: Detectivu

The most adorable murder mystery.
