I have Witcher 3 in GOG so I can't vote for it as my Steam GOTY
Sure you can. What matters is if it RELEASED on Steam in 2015.

I wonder what the cross over between people who think the writing in Life is Strange is good and people who watch a lot of anime is.
not chapter 2. and definitely not MGO.

It's gameplay is sensational, mate.
It outperforms all three of those in that category alone.
Also, even trash can do great things. It's called trash can, not trash cannot
I voted for XIII last year and it didn't even crack the top 20 in the results.

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.
I'll see if I can put something like this together. The problem is that it will likely create a list with as many games as there are people responding, but I don't see any harm in doing that as long as it's not something that affects the general vote and is completely optional.
Your hilarious.
In pure gameplay terms it's one of the best games I've ever played and by far the best playing game this year IMO.
I also quite liked the story.
Witcher 3 is still GOTY though, don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

Just done the last episode of Life is Strange.
God damn.
GOTY.
EDIT: huh, fair timing considering the chat on last page
God damn.
GOTY.
EDIT: huh, fair timing considering the chat on last page
I know, it was just a bad joke.
Yep.
So many good games this year though. Kerbal, Prison Architect, Witcher 3, Pillars, Cities Skylines, Life is Strange, etc.
Kerbal is probably going to be my GOTY.

This year has also been an amazing year for horror games.
That only I and a few others will vote for.
Your absolutely right, this year was a fantastic year for games.
I should really get back to playing Pillars before the year ends =|

DreadOut is underrated, what did you think of it?
I just finished Life is Strange.
I... I don't know what to say. It's certainly a game that I'll remember for a long time. I can't wait to see what Dontnod will do next.
Now, The Witcher 3 is still my GOTY: CDPR crafted an almost perfect game, with an ending that was personally more satisfying than the one in the books (well, at least my ending).
But Life is Strange is certainly second place.
I'll probably start Tales from the Borderlands next, I feel like I need something cheerful now.

Loved it, you can find my review on it here: http://steamcommunity.com/id/AestheticGamer/recommended/269790/
And there's been a high number of underlooked but great horror games this year, and even some with more attention this year. It's been a good year for horror.

I hope REmake and Revelations 2 get the recognition they deserve on the goty lists.

How can REmake be included when it's a re-release remake?
We will do our own HorrorGOTY thread with jumpscares and hookers. In fact, forget the jumpscares!

Rocket League is multiplayer only, common.

The only eligibility requirement is that it has to have been released on Steam in 2015, so that includes things like REmake as well as a number of Final Fantasy ports such as Type-0, The After Years, V, and Lightning Returns
if it releases on time

Your asinine OT opinions were just the tip of the iceberg
Some inspirational PR stuff right here. (I mean if you enjoy doing 50 missions of the same thing. Airlift everyone and kill those you can't extract)It's gameplay is sensational, mate.

Still has a better story than MGS V
and Destiny
MGS V is such a disappointment in term of story and characters.
Two days ago I finally had to send Steam support my first ticket. I was expecting the worst but I still wasn't prepared...
So two days it took them to reply. A bit long but within acceptable limits all things considered. However the actual reply has 9 sentences to solve my issue, of which none have any relevance at all with my issue. So basically their automated system took two days to send me an automated reply. I mean the reply itself might be a copy/paste job done by a human being but it's fair say a poorly programmed human being at best. If their customer support isn't going to read even the first sentence of an issue before sending a copy/paste answer that has nothing to do with the issue, how about you actually automate this first step and go from there?
I'm not sure I should even try to reply. Giving up right away might be the only reasonable solution.

One of my favorite games of 2015 that's criminally underrated:
According to SteamSpy it's sold around 30,000 copies, and only about 5 people on my friends list played it long enough to finish it, which is sad.
This game is pretty legit guys. It's like Zelda but with more RPG mechanics (such as a character leveling system) that simply nails it on atmosphere. The game is also somewhat short (took me 11 hours) and the achievements are plentiful but well spaced. Combat feels good and the puzzles are really well done.
Will probably be in my top 5.

By most accounts the first reply is always worthless, you should still send a reply if you still have the issue.

I'm really looking forward to getting this but I'll admit it's in the "looks like it will be bundled" category so I'm holding out until at least a big sale. 30k full price copies is pretty decent for a $15 indie though.

Congrats, had to eventually lose one and I'll gladly take this. After the lackluster game on Saturday I wasn't expecting anything more than a draw which it would've been without Neuer's error (not gonna complain about Giroud using his hand, defense was just too bad) but when even Lewandowski can't hit a ball while Özil scores you know it's one of those days.

Hopefully it gets a hefty discount during the Autumn/Winter sale this year, so more people get the chance to play it. It was $5 on the Humble Store last month which is totally worth it. If it hits 75% off, it'll be a no-brainer. As far as bundling is concerned, this would actually be a good inclusion choice for the Humble Monthly if they wanted to wow people the first month with a great game.

Not 100% sure about the manuals in OlliOlli2. It sort of renders getting long combos so easy they're pointless.

If that was true they'd ditch uplay.
if you're going for every objective as you go (as do I and should you) the game gets hard enough even with em, believe me
maybe not OMG hard, but definetly challenging and fun

You do know that what you just said applies to Rocket league as well, right?
I tried playing the original and had a really hard time getting the timing of landings down. Am I alone on that? Maybe it was the input lag but I thought I had to hit it way too early to feel natural.
And to me.
Yet to play anything beyond 5. I couldn't even complete the damn thing, despite it being the game I bought my PS3 for.
It was, incidentally, also the only game I really ever played on that bloody console. Such a waste. >-<

The game, apparently, makes over $12,000 US in revenue every day on iOS. I think they'll be fine.

Well that's great news, honestly. I love seeing good work like this being rewarded.
Witcher 3 is just trash.
Witcher 3 is about as good as your flashbang throwing abilities
can't quite remember how it felt but I never had an issue. It's one of those things that you'll never have trouble to get once you get it once, I think
maybe vsync was messing you up or something? 2 really relies on those perfect landings FAST if you wanna get the objectives done
im like on the third world and it's already asking me for level-long combos with perfect manuals and rails
the "tricky" part of the game for me was always trying to get the tricks you're asked to do. It's not quite clear if I can blame the game really but somteimes shit just doesnt pop where you feel like it should.
Gamebryo wouldn't be able to handle the amount of polygons and the resolution of Triss' boobies though.
So it can't win. No way José.
TW3 is, objectively, GOAT for RPGs of it's kind.
Objectively.
And if you disagree, you're wrong. :>
yeah, Zesty port is fine, I had no problems with it so far at all (only had to restart after changing settings as per Bamco suggestion), 29-30 fps is kinda odd, I thought it will be locked at 30.
Can't say about combat much yet, seems to be pretty standard Tales combat, at least at the start. I wish it looked a tad better, especially character models, but I know it's Tales and not FF13. So yeah, it's fine.
