It... was a joke :(

Ah. Speaking of state (as an adjective) I remember playing Scattergories with my family and state was the category. Thinking I was being smart, I started listing states (state of mind, state of clarity, etc.). No one let me earn a single point, saying that was not the proper usage of the category. I'm still angry about that, as it was within the rules (it did not specify that there could only be one interpretation of the category). No matter how much I plead my case, no one would hear it.

I only played old games this year. Well that's not true - I played some games from this year but have not finished a single one other than Quantum Break.

I am bad with finishing games. I need good a story to pull me through - only good gameplay does not do it for me anymore :(
 
1. Overwatch
2. Deus Ex: Mankind Divided
3. Uncharted 4
4. Dark Souls III
5. Titanfall 2
6. Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare (That SP is proper good guys)
7. Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare Remastered
8. DOOM
9. Gears of War 4
10. Firewatch

I'm waiting for Dishonored 2 to leave Early Access on PC before I buy it, but that will probably be a top 3 game when it actually works.

The Last Guardian will probably crack the top 10 too.

A good year, but not outstanding.

How did you manage to finish Quantum Break then. 🤔

I am sorry to say this and I am kinda sad about it, but I really do not like the Waypoint podcast at all. Love Patrick and Austin, but they are kinda different there. Like trying to be high-level journalism about games, which can be good, but there is something off about it. Plus for the other participants all games seem amazing and awesome.

How did you manage to finish Quantum Break then. ��

Remedy charm. Plus the story per se is great, one of the best time travel stories out there.

Huh i actually played a fair amount of games released in 2016 in 2016. I guess it was that first half of a year where my full time job had shorter hours and was literally 5 minutes from my doorstep that did that.

I kinda regret not buying Moon since I mostly play Pokemon at night so I don't even see sunny Alola.

Edit: games I played this year not included on my list: SFV, Battlefield 1, Hyper Light Drifter.

Might as well include one of those. I'll redo the list anyway once I finish Inside and Oxenfree.

WE STILL HAVEN'T HAD A VA11-HALLA QL

hell i don't think i even heard austin talk about that game and it's right up his fucking alley. Cyberpunk bartending where you get sex robots drunk so you can philosophise with them about the morality of their profession. it's good shit
