Giant Bomb GoTY 2016- Agent 47, take out that Doom Marine

Wow

Top 10 list spoilers:
Genuinely shocked to see that number one and curious to hear how it ended up there. DOOM seemed like such a lock.

Yup this is why it's the best moment. Every other moment they discussed is specifically designed to be experienced by players at the exact same moment in the game.

In The Witness, you can experience it at minute 1, minute 10000, or not at all. That's pretty unique in gaming and deserves to be rewarded.

There's a lot of moments in The Witness that players may never experience. Spoilers: The
environment puzzles
are the spotlight imo, but discovering that
the lake is actually a map of the island as well as a checklist of your progress and collectibles
was also pretty mindblowing for me.

Longest one of the week. Gonna be a knock down drag out fight for that top 10.

Jeff's top 10 means GotY discussion is gonna be fantastic.

I didn't expect Jeff to like
Hitman more than Doom

Biggest surprise of the final list:
They actually let Dan get Stardew
 
Updated math-based GOTY list:

1. Doom
2. Hitman
3. Overwatch
4. Superhot
5. Picross 3D: Round 2
6. Inside
7. Titanfall 2
8. The Witness
9. Overcooked!
10. Rez Infinite

This includes everyone but Alex, who seemingly doesn't have a list this year???

I haven't looked at their site list yet so I don't know how close it is. Out of this thread until I can listen to full deliberations tonight.

Oh my God.

Dan actually got Stardew Valley on the GOTY list. I don't care if he only got it into 10th place, he still did it. Godspeed Dan Ryckert, you beautiful man you.
 
Wuh oh, you know shit gets real when wrestling gifs are posted lol. Excited to dig in.

Now that I finished Titanfall 2 the only spoiler stuff I'll be trying to avoid at this point is TLG.

Good list. The biggest surprise on there for me is seeing
Hyper Light Drifter.
Cool to see it recognized, that's about where it is on my personal list.

And yeah I honestly didn't think Jeff liked
Hitman
that much, who would've thunk it.
 
Hyper Light Drifter feels like a game that probably sneaked onto the top 10 when shit was getting cut out versus anyone actually fighting for it.


That is a totally "meh. its fine" game.
