I'm not sure. I personally wouldn't classify that as DLC (although the update was substantial, and it included a lot more stuff) but maybe Grief does.

Your post reads like a Humble Monthly Story. We could find similar posts about most hidden gems found in humble monthly bundles, and this is the reason why I'm superscribed* to the monthly bundle.
* lapsus for subscribed
Edit: Actually, it is not created by the same studio. They are just easter eggs.

60fps should be expected, not rewarded.

Played through Superhot and Pony Island in the last week. Both fun games. Enjoyed Pony Island a lot more though. Superhot feels like a proof of concept because the developers never evolved the one core mechanic it has.
There are multiple playable characters with their own distinct playstyle, which alone makes a huge difference.
The underlying story stays mostly the same, but events play out differently, the order of some bosses changes, and there are some unique bosses for each character as well.
One playthrough should be in the 8-10 hour range, I guess.
You should definitely play through it once with each character.
You've missed more than half of the game.
60 FPS patch was a massive undertaking by the developers, likely required just as much resources as traditional DLC and added just as much value to the game.
Earns a spot in my list.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
HLD is my game of the year so I'm all for any praise it gets, but that definitely doesn't count as DLC
At that point everyone just determines themselves what patches do and don't count which is silly because that's a bunch of 1-shots for jshack to filter out.someguyinahat

I know it's not a Steam game, but finally finished SMT IV: Apocalypse. One of the routes, anyway. The power-of-friendship ending. It's rare to see an SMT ending that optimistic. I might another route a go if for no other reason than to fill out my Demon Compendium. (But why oh why do they have SO MANY accident-only fusions, and no means to improve the odds of an accident, when they're so rare? Dang!)
Now, back to PC games! ...I guess.

Yeah, they're different games (as in different genres) made by different teams. I'm not sure how the shared world thing came to be but all the crossover is limited to easter eggs and character cameos. I was already interested in ROM either way, the VA-11 Hall-A connection just made me more excited to play it.

Get your hands out of my cookie jar.
She's/He's right. If a game received an update with something I think is super awesome, either game content or techincal stuff like increased resolution, should that update be eligible for goty vote?

I hated DEADBOLT at first, but I'm starting to like it now.
The whole hit & run style of the game where you ambush a couple of enemies, empty your shotgun in their faces, then jump in a toilet, to reappear at the other end of the level is kinda cool. But I still think it sucks you can't play it with a controller (not sure how I'm supposed to test the controller beta BMP thing (I have a xbox 360 gamepad)? Going into big picture mode did nothing.).

It should be, same as Civ VIs winter update. Brought along lots of cool new fixes and additions.

EA has sure made good use of that Star Wars license so far.

Hm, maybe I should've voted for that major Sega Mega Drive & Genesis Classics Hub update that came out last year. Not only did it completely revamp the front-end, it introduced official support for ROM Hacks via Steam Workshop. It was nice to see a company give a nod to fan projects for classic games.
And people pointed at me as I became vocal that they got the licence back then.
I really, really hope Disney open it up to other studios after that damn contract is done (I believe there is almost 6 years left on it?). Star Wars should have a steady flow of games in different genres. And then we can get some new titles other than Lego on Steam.

I didn't play a ton of new games this year. I've been playing more classics, and a larger variety of games in general. I'm also not buying as many indie games as before, mainly because of price and bundles.
*If EA wasn't such a fuckhead*, Titanfall 2 would be in my top 2. SP is so, so good.
(5 Points) DOOM - It's that hotness. I love a pure uncut raw shooter, and they delivered piles of it.
(4 Points) Xanadu Next - Falcom at their best. An Ys style ARPG that will make you lose track of time.
(3 Points) Momodora: Reverie Under the Moonlight - An action platformer where you explore and fight things. Ticking all of my boxes in the process.
(2 Points) Dark Souls 3 - You already know.
(1 Point) Stardew Valley - Wait, it's dark outside? Huh. I haven't even approached the surface.
One thing I noticed about my list is that all of these games are perfect with the Steam Controller. I wonder if that's just by chance.
Games I from 2016 I want to buy/play:
1) Salt and Sanctuary
2) Hyper Light Drifter
3) Furi
4) Necropolis
5) VA-11
"Older" games I enjoyed in 2016:
- Vampire: TM-B
- Wolfenstein: The New Order
- GTAV
- RtCW
- Shogo

GOTY:
(5 Points) - Stardew Valley
(4 Points) - Deus Ex: Mankind Divided
(3 Points) - The Division
(2 Points) - Hyper Light Drifter
(1 Point) - Dishonored 2
Stardew Valley should win because it's a love letter from one person to a very specific genre of games. Every piece of the game has that shimmer things get when they've received a hands-on once over. It glows with inclusivity and optimism but never leaves behind biting jabs or moments of depression. Big picture global issues get turns here, scaled down to the game's world, without being fed to you by the dev's spoon. All pretty impressive for a game about your grandfather's stupid fucking farm.

There are games on people's lists that I haven't played. I mean, I haven't even started Dark Souls 3 and I'm a big fan of the series and its tangential games. I'm sure it would have made the list.
Expanding outside of Steam makes it a no brainer to pick a GOTY: Overmotherfuckingwatch.

This is mine:
(5 Points) - Enter The Gungeon
(4 Points) - Owlboy
(3 Points) - Pony Island
(2 Points) - Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc
(1 Point) - Momodora: Reverie Under the Moonlight
I'm thinking of swapping Momodora for Stardew Valley. Momodora has a lot of flaws and I'm not sure I'd count it as one of my favorite metroidvanias (axiom verge, cave story and guacamelee are way better imho).

I gotta say, I'm really liking Shantae and the Pirate's Curse. I would have gladly picked this up for $5.
I'm also liking this Project CARS demo. I might have to look for a key.
If it doesn't out the box, it will with the new Steam beta.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
I love that the PC supports 3rd party controllers.

You only need RE6
I love Dishonored and it's one of the only games with enough great tools to feel like you can do fuckin anything, I feel like the first game was better mostly due to story and consistent level design
(things like way better verticality across levels and switch-ups like Boyle estate)
Evolve Stage 2, in what little time it had, gave me the most out of a multiplayer I've gotten in a long fuckin time. In terms of if you put the time in you feel the game giving back. I understand the criticisms because it does take a lot, but people berating the concept was utterly depressing. What I expected was L4D, what I got was an entire fps shooter match consisting of RAID BOSS MECHANICS THE GAME. There's nothing more I love than REAL player agency, meaning every single person has actual jobs you uphold instead of just wailing bullets arround, every single person maintains consistency as there's no Ultimates or anything to bail you out just pure darksoulsish consistency in gameplay to survive, and so much movement and freedom that you can actually play and have a distinct gameplay style. All that mixed in with fantastic jetpack usage and verticality that makes the high risk air juke gameplay I love so much better. That said, it is unfortunate that the launch didn't turn out as expected, they really should've waited to the equivalent of like a month after they originally planned to do so, things missing such as TUTORIALS, FUNCTIONING SHOP, and FUNCTIONING MATCHMAKING were borked upon the first couple patches and the loss of the initial interest mixed with ZERO way to obtain helpful information for people who even wanted to try to stick with the game was too much. Best of wishes to TRS next endeavors.

6 is the only one I've played. I kinda want to get 7 after playing the demo but think I should play some of the older ones first and save money to get Nights of Azure and Atelier Sophie next month instead.
i have 6!

Using Depressurizer, I can filter my own library, and this is what could be added from there:
Likely added:
- Crawl
- Mini Metro
- Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes
Possibly added, yet it would be surprising due to the previous prices during sales:
- Besiege
- Broforce
- Infinifactory
- Nuclear Throne
- Status
