As someone just getting back into gaming, I’d like some Lemming’s top 10 of the year – which would be more helpful than Time’s.
Good idea I might make a post or query the community on how they would want to do it.
In no particular order, here are some games that came out this year that have really stuck with me:
Hi-Fi Rush
Zelda: TOTK
Mario Wonder
Dungeons of Aether
Remnant 2
And a bonus shoutout to Warhammer 40k Darktide for getting a ground-up rework to the class system. To anyone who wrote this game off previously, it's worth another shot.
Do you want top 10 released this year, or top 10 people played this year?
If you're just getting back into gaming, you probably missed a bunch of gems that are still totally worth playing today.
When I got back into gaming, I remember really liking /r/patientgamers essential gaming list (Google spreadsheet), which has a bunch of great older games. Perhaps we could do something like that, but limit it to more recent games (say, 5 years or current gen only?). And put that next to a top ten from the current year.
Thanks for the spreadsheet, that’s clutch! Also, great ideas.
