I had a hard time choosing a top ten list this year. This year was a good year for our industry. We saw a major expansion of indies power, and AAA played an active part, as well. Also, I realize that mobile games have demonstrated their ability to be not negligible, and I can fully enjoy the works. In addition to all of that, there was the rise of VR. All VR works are still rough, but this is a technology that I believe leads to the future.
So I had some concern about the difference between me and the majorities. However, I AM SWERY. Please just enjoy my list.
