Artsygamer top 5 games of 2016
A little late, but thought I’d post my top 5 games of 2016. It was a tough fight but the winners to me are:
2) Dishonored 2
4) Dark Souls 3
5) Witcher 3 tied with Hitman
Obviously the choices are subjective though as to my reasons their respective reviews/impressions hopefully explain at least partly my choices. As an honourable mention I’d put in Layers of Fear, a game on a much lower budget but that still managed to impress.
Please leave your top 5 in the comments and I’ll edit-it in here in the post. (games of 2016 as in when you played them, even if they’re older)

Wow, Sherlock Holmes, that’s a great surprised. Played a bit of one of the games a year or two ago when I got it on PS3 and i do remember being surprised how high quality it was, but i got stuck. Thanks for pointing it out. I’ll keep an eye for it!
Mordor: loved that game. even the expansions. So cool. I couldn’t believe how much relationship/antagonism/emotion those generated orcs could trigger in me.VN:F [1.9.22_1171]

My perception of 2016 keeps changing…
But I think I’ll go with this:1. DOOM
2. The Last Guardian
3. Mafia 3
4. Overwatch
5. InsideAt the end of the year I was pretty hardcore into Let It Die. But I keep wondering when the story DLCs for Mafia 3 will be released and also how much I enjoyed all of my time with it.

he he, i see you keep making little changes. :P Cool! It’s hard to separate perceptions into permanence, I know also. Did you enjoy *all* the time in Let it Die? I know you told me that wasted time is a negative for you with time constraints, so I’m wondering if that was a factor in it being bumped out. I’m curious about Inside though I’m trying to be realistic that I haven’t yet finished Limbo either, despite starting it multiple times. I just hit the first difficulty and I don’t feel motivated to keep trying.

I’d say “almost” all the time. There were some pretty obvious in your face “now your die” situations a la Souls that really angered me because they force you to either level up another character to get the lost one back, spend ingame currency to get the lost character back or use a token that can be bought for money (but you’ll get plenty for free as well) to revive the character on the spot. But those situations were not plentiful.
Regarding Inside: I never got past the second or third trap in Limbo, stopped playing it and never looked back. Inside is a completely different game though. Clever, inspiring, balanced. Don’t need to play it again but still worth the time and money for me to experience it once.

Skyroads, epic game
Indeed, same principle with very few additions, including online ranking system

omg, yeah, Skyroads was the game!!! such simple but consistent application of an idea. Had to respect it even though i was bad at it. Also, thanks for the great vid, i’ll have to post it for the archives. I think i searched once for it but didn’t find anything so good (talkover/bits/not complete… )
