GOTY 2022
Wow, here we are again. It's been a heck of a year, up and downs, strikes and gutters. We are here nonetheless at the end of 2022. Yet another year has passed us by. This year I was able to do more gaming than I did in 2021. It's been a lot calmer for me and I had the time to play more games than I initially thought. I sat down to do my list for the year and there are more games for that list than I realized. But first, as always, let's go through the games I played during the year that were not released in the calendar year.
Games Played in 2022 that were not 2022 games....
Death Stranding - This was on Game Pass and I was curious. After delivering the first package I was done with the game. Too much of a Metal Gear game drunk and on acid of a vibe for me. Just couldn't get into it so I walked away rather quickly never to look back.
Battlefield 3 - This was just kind of a palette cleanser after spending the better of a month playing only Horizon Forbidden West. I played the game years and years ago on PS3 and it was pretty much what I remembered.
Fall Guys - I hadn't played in a while but I had heard at one point there was a major update. Since I hadn't played in so long, I had no idea what was new and what wasn't. This is a fun game to hop into for a few rounds but the lather rinse repeat style of it just doesn't bring me back. There is just something missing, in my mind, that the game needs to make me stay interested in it. However, for the life of me I can't tell you what it is that would make me stick with this game longer. Likely I will return to it time time to time but that's about it.
Marvel's Avengers - When this game hit Game Pass I said to myself "I have to know". Now I know and I would have been just as well off not knowing. The plot, for the few hours I played, was the most interesting part. The game play itself was by far the least interesting part. Don't plan on ever returning to this game.
Deathloop - I really don't have anything bad to say about this game but I also don't have anything good to say about it. It controlled fine. It looked fine. I think my issue of it is that it based on you playing the same section over and over but trying to do different things. It's a fine game, maybe you should play it???
That's it for the non-2022 games. Read below for the actual 2022 games of 2022 that I played. Remember, we go worst to first cause sometimes its better on the bottom.
