Total Warhammer is definitely up there. Right alongside Stardew Valley and Tyranny for how much they surprised me.
I've really got to dive back into XCOM 2 to see how I feel about it. It's great, but the performance issues really brought it down overall.

It's a great game, especially at that price. It's got its issues, sure, but I was perfectly satisfied buying it at full price when it came out.
crt filters are terrible in every game
they're so lazy and look nothing like old tvs -___-
characterization and plot was my #1 issue with disho1, i was kind of hoping that with emily as a lead and a talking corvo things would be a lot better :/

You linked to the store page. I'm pretty sure that invalidates the nomination.
Should have mentioned, I meant at launch.

New releases, five dollars, game developed by the guys who made Broforce and published by Devolver Digital.
You can thank me later.

listen to the mad man

My steam GotY would Dark Souls 1. As for 2016 releases it'd probably be The Witness as I love everything about the game (from what I've seen) and generally consume puzzles, but I'm still waiting for a decent sale... 1 month left though.
How can you possibly say a game is goty without playing it?
Jim Sterling didn't like Dishonored 2 that much. He gave it 5/10.

I've added Xanadu + TitS to my wishlist - will keep an eye out for them in the xmas sale. From the Ys series I have a couple, just never got around to playing them, will install them this weekend.
Added Age of Decadence to wishlist. Have played both Baldur's Gates, enjoyed them (especially 2), but this was before the EE came out - might give that a shot.

I was about to post that my GOTY is probably Regency Solitaire, by default and simply due to me having/playing very little that was released in 2016... but a peek at the store page indicates that it was released in 2015.
2016 has been awful and the low-point of my life for many reasons, but effectively being excluded from SteamGAF GOTY voting really seals the deal.

I didn't say it IS, just that it probably would be, as I tend to be very picky about games, and rarely wrong about whether I'd love a game or not (don't buy much new stuff/usually one year or so after release/follow many different impressions and make a choice, as you see that limits it to a very small number of 2016 releases), I also called it my possible GotY so that I'd somehow force myself to buy it haha.
The only games that were released in 2016 that I played are Deponia Doomsday, Stardew Valley, Cyber City 2157 (which I didn't like), Tharsis, The Banner Saga 2, Agatha Christie - The ABC Murders and Oxenfree. I think Deponia Doomsday might win my GOTY vote, but I'm not completely sure yet.
Dark Souls 3 is the GOTY for me no doubt. The entire last half of that game was just amazing boss fight after amazing boss fight all to the way to the end. The music was so good too. The last boss is probably the best last boss in any game since MGS3 imo.
Your Steam library will never be complete without MGSV. Just sayin.

Not many games released in 2016 that I've played so far.
I beat Pony Island, which was a really nice game.
I also beat Moirai, which was a fun little experience.
There's also Riff Racer, but that was an early access game before 2016 so I'm not sure if that counts.
Can't think of any others at the moment. Oh well.

i think dks3 had a better "singleplayer" than 2 tho, really good level design and bosses. i love dks2 and i had a ton of fun with its multiplayer actually
dks3 it just felt too derivative for me, little about it felt original or exciting

Titanfall 2 and Overwatch both on sale at Best Buy today. Who will we lose to temptation?
Yesterday I impulse-bought Rise of Tomb Raider and the Koei Pack, but I ended up on refunding it istantly because I have no time to play them. The price is good, but I can't manage to clear the titles I have installed, FFXV will release in 11 days and I risk to end up with those titles in my library untouched and meanwhile a bundle or a deeper discount will happen for sure.

hi steamgaf i am dead and tired and dead inside and i want to tell you about a little thing called Islands
AM16 pulled my head above the water long enough to feel like swimming towards Islands right away. It's as short as Carl advertised - about 40 minutes - but it never repeats itself, despite the central mechanic severely limiting what a scene can do. Burton's hazy dreamscapes reminded me a lot of the mystery in old web games back in the early 00s, where the creator's intent was impossible to nail down, and there was no telling what could come next. Some sequences have a more sensible logic to follow that makes it easier to 'accept' the space, but I could never predict what was going to happen whenever I clicked on the next series of flashing lights. It even subverts pacing expectations by mixing in shorter pieces between more complex, multi-stage gags.
Be it due to the sheer absurdity of the progression in a non-space, or the potential commentary for what the non-space is trying to say about its real-world counterpart, Islands had me giggling at its very dry sense of humor. Simple laughs, but the fact that they got me to express anything at all after being so emotionally flatlined towards games over the past year says a lot about the game's wit. Or maybe I'm just that broken! Either way... it's likely to be a one-time-use sort of experience for most, but I feel comfortable enough saying that the moments where each scene clicks easily justifies the asking price. Those who seek out the strange will find unusual comforts here in the islands.

What's the problem? If you mean latest Pascal memory issue - that's on partners and their overclocking policy, not Nvidia's fault.
You mean nvidia did not know what's happening with their partner cards and only test drivers on reference cards?

I am going to make it through this year if it kills me
It's a great game, and I bought it because of the glowing reviews it got from gaffers, but - I got really REALLY bored a bit into it. Since then I haven't touched it.
CRT filters are great when done right. Unfortunately I've been spoilt by the versatility of Retroarch in that regard and so the vast majority of implementations provided by games pale in comparison.
