Dark Souls III

1. Dark Souls III

I haven't been back to this game since June, but nothing is as good. Using a lot of the Bloodborne tech really made me feel at home with this game. Though it will never be as good as Bloodborne (the best video game), it's definitely the most mechanically refined and fun to play of the Souls games.

Hitman

2. Hitman

This was one of my favourite games this year purely because of the consistently high quality episodes. I've never played a Hitman game before this which seems crazy because of how much I've enjoyed this one. So many fun ways to murder :D

Stardew Valley

3. Stardew Valley

Ho boy. Being a huge Harvest Moon: Back to Nature fan, this is right up my alley. I needed to force myself to stop playing this game because it was eating up all my time.

Final Fantasy XV

4. Final Fantasy XV

Very surprised at how much I enjoyed this game. Haven't finished the story at the time of this list creation, but I'm really loving the characters and battle system.

5. No Man's Sky

This game is so chill. The fact that I can jump in a starship and set the controller down while flying across a solar system really makes this a great experience. It's exactly what I like about Minecraft, but with nicer style and sci-fi theme. People were SO hostile towards this game because they were being unrealistic with their expectations. It's great. Fuck the haters.

6. Uncharted 4: A Thief's End

What a gorgeous game. Naughty Dog once again proving they are some of the best developers in the business.

The Witness

7. The Witness

Ahhh yes, the game you definitely need to have some grid paper and a pencil for. Really enjoyed solving my way through this game even if I did have to brute force a couple of those bloody tetromino ones. Had me seeing puzzle lines in real life for about a week.

Sid Meier's Civilization VI

8. Sid Meier's Civilization VI

Pairing suggestion: Netflix or Giant Bomb Premium Content.

Inside

9. Inside

That ending sequence was disturbing and revelatory, but most of all empowering.

Overwatch

10. Overwatch

I need to play more of this game. I really like it :)
