Most Wanted 2017
At the time of writing (2016) these are, for me, the most interesting titles from those scheduled for first release in 2017.
List items
-
Character action from the ruling kings of the genre, plus bullet-hell-style shooting mechanics alongside the melee combat.
I haven't played the first Nier, or any of the other games in the continuity.
-
Looks like more Platinum character action... but this is an action RPG. We've got a dragon sidekick and online co-op.
-
I skipped Twilight Princess and everything since... this looks like they've brought in much learning from modern free-roaming genre.
-
3D platformer throwback. Looks delightful.
-
Haste is mandatory.
-
The first one was Sonic mixed with Gunstar Heroes. And cutscenes full of anime. A bit too much.
-
I backed this on Kickstarter. Roguelike-ish platformer, with swordplay, weird creatures and an ancient, knobbly megastructure setting rendered in pixel art.
-
I liked Generations.
-
JRPGs are not my wheelhouse. But I always liked FF's science-fantasy aesthetic. The rebel boyband road trip theme speaks to me on multiple levels.
-
Missed it the first time round.
-
This is the samurai Dark Souls game.
-
A new Nintendo console. I skipped the two Wiis, but this might pull me back in.
