Pure old-school JRPG delight. Also Sylvando is Best New Character 2018, no contest.

I didn't think they could make a GoW game that would actually make me care about the characters, but they did it. And I'm actually a Viking so the setting was appealing to me :)

Finally, a good Spider-Man game. It's been too long. Spider-Man 2 must concede the crown and is now the second best Spidey game ever made.
