DOS2 has no chance of being GAF GOTY. It might be SteamGAF GOTY, but it'll be fortunate to get into the top ten for the GAF GOTY list.
Summoner Incarnate with level 10 summoning is hilariously huge. Add a giant bone spider from Necromancy on a second character and you get nonstop complaints from your coop partners "your stupid pets are in my way I can't charge/ backstab".
Middle-earth: Shadow Of War bundled with GeForce® GTX 1080/Ti
Game code offer good beginning September 26, 2017 through October 16, 2017 or while supplies last.
I'm not sure if promotion could be still active during Black Friday sale providing that supplies last until then.

You forgot about mario o
"Through October 16" means "up to and including October 16" (i.e. it's the last day), so the promotion will be over before Black Friday regardless of key supply.
Well, anyway. Hopefully the fist Yomawari gets a nice discount when the sequel releases, or in the halloween sale. I plan on getting that and Nights of Azure as my primary sale purchases for the rest of the year.
New game-wise it'll boil down to Ys VIII, Zwei Zwei and Tokyo Xanadu, I guess.

Sky the 3rd really is the perfect epilogue to the trilogy. A great game (cannot be Steam GOTY with Nier Automata around though)You know that the one true GOTY can only be Trails in the Sky the 3rd.

But I am playing the fan translation of Trails of Zero right now and I like it even more than the Sky games so far!
Zelda and Mario will probably be 1 & 2, but there's also a little game known as P.Unk BaG.
Thanks for the clarification JaseC. Oh well then, it's a pity.
Well yeah, not enough have played that game for it to win a popularity contest
I'm waiting for the good fan-translations to be finished or until Xseed suddenly announces a release date tomorrow.
I do know that I'm not going to play CS3 before the Crossbell arc though. (Well, first I need to play 2 still).

I hope there will be a Yomawari/Rose bundle again like they had it with their prequels.
And I hope Yomawari 2 will be longer than 1. 1 was around 4-5 hours for me with 100% completion.
The available unedited translation of Zero can be rough, but the story is totally understandable. I fear for Ao though. I'll buy CS3 Day 1, but like you won't let it spoil me on the Crossbell games. Crossbell is a such a beautiful place!Well yeah, not enough have played that game for it to win a popularity contest

Dishonored 2
I hope I'm not wrong this time, but I think that currently Dishonored 2 has the lowest price ever on Gamesplanet UK. £12.99 // ~$17.50 ~15€
With voucher of "forUNCUT steam group" is about £12.60

Seems to have sold a lot of copies. But I do agree PC Gaf is a little underrepresented.
Think Zelda will get the GOTY over mario. Mario will have to hit it out of the park to have a chance.
Ah drats - I forgot about PUBG, that's a contender too.
I was like you, but then I finished NieR:Automata. Provided Umineko releases this year, 3rd will have to make do with 3rd place.You know that the one true GOTY can only be Trails in the Sky the 3rd.

But mario o already looks great
Great sense of trvaersal and some good looking puzzle and platforming challenges
Funny thing is, I was debating long and hard between 3rd and NieR, but overall 3rd just came out on top by a tiny little bit and ultimately you could use any of those 2 and I'd be fine with it.

Yeah, too bad it's not an RPG (Torchlight III).
It doesn't help that this game does nothing for me. Torchlight 3 please.

They are pretty mediocre at best and garbage at worst. The only good aspect to any of them is the art direction. Id recommend skipping all 3.

Yeah, they look great but are ultimately completely hollow.

Oh rock of ages, do not crumble, love is breathing still. Oh lady moon shine down, a little people magic if you will.
I'm not what you'd call a "critical gamer". I prefer to focus on what I enjoy in a title and/or what works instead of what I dislike, but AC Chronicles India was a soulcrushing experience.
Avoid like the plague.
The only thing it got going for it is it's artstyle and even that get's bland after a while.
(Re)Play Mark Of The Ninja instead.
Damn.
I was hoping there was something there worth the current sale price, but I guess not!
Thanks!

So, Assassin Creed sale. I kinda want to see how Unity would run on my new GPU, but it's still pricey and reviews doesn't look very promising. Is it at least good game? Or should i save money and wait to see how Origins would turn out?
It's a great looking game that is a bore to play after 4-5 hours. If you're okay with that then go for it, otherwise you're better off with the other game from the same year, Rogue.
That Eurogamer review tho...

I like the look of Hob. It seems like a fun, solid medium-sized game. Im glad Runic is doing something other than Diablo style games too.

Ive been playing Shadow Complex Remastered after finishing Hollow Knight, Ori, Headlander and Axiom Verge earlier this summer and it is surprisingly a really good metroidvania. I dont like the art style really and I get random FPS drops and I am not sure why but overall it is quite fun.

New Firefox Quantum is some good shit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YIywpvHewc0
Also fixed a session restore issue for me that was in introduced in some older version.
Sadly all non FF 57 compatible addons get deactivated by default now. You have to rely on devs to update those addons.

I like the sound of that, Christian Donlan is a solid reviewer, relatively speaking.
Ah I didn't mean it wouldn't have a chance. I'm sure Mario will be right up there in the GOTY rankings.

Origins, of course.

Universally good advice. Just thinking about makes me want to reinstall.
I need to push through Hollow Knight. I think I've been subconsciously holding back because I don't want it to end.
It may not look like it but a Puncher going through a lot right now.

With patches, it's a serviceable AC game. i just finished playing it a few weeks ago. It looks beautiful and is an excellent GPU show piece. its only slightly better than the first AC game. Maybe better than Liberation. Everything else in the series is better than Unity.
A man robbed of his jifs...
The only big thing missing right now for me is NoScript. However, the dev has been working on a webextensions version, and hopes to have it done by the full release of 57 (December, I think).
Still, seemed like a dumb move by Firefox to just throw out the old addon support. They could gone to a limited API that made some addons incompatible, but would allow a lot of addons to just continue unchanged. Maybe a generic shim that would allow some of them to run on web extensions, with possible performance loss.
As a side note, I know it's petty, but I always find it strange why people use "quantum leap" to signify a big change. In physics, it's literally something small and unobservable. Hell, that's literally in the name, a quantum is something really, really small. *sigh*
I honestly don't think Persona 5 is going to make much of a splash come GOTY season. Feels like people bounced off of it, esp. when compared against P4. Still has lots of fans, but it just doesn't seem like it caught everyone's imagination like more popular GOTY candidates.
I expect console 'Gaf to gravitate between Zelda, Nier and Horizon.
More excited about Steam 'Gaf's thread where DOS2, WotC, etc. actually have a chance for recognition.

They were trying to grab your prize. They work for the mercenary. The masked man.
Im afraid to ask this in the gaming side, so maybe someone here knows. Has anyone at Valve ever said why theyre moving to a new office (apparently finally happening this week)? Are they planning to grow bigger, or did they already outgrow the old place? Or was their lease up or something?
Gotta make room for the new Artifact team.

They've been banging away at this drum for around two years now and I still don't understand it. Their market share of the browser space has fallen off a cliff in recent times and that means you have less developers creating less addons for the software. Past creators have moved on to other things. By disabling legacy addon support they are going to throw away so many useful extensions that will never get updated. Does Mozilla actually think they have the clout to get developers to do the extra work required to maintain compatibility?
If things keep going the way they are going then Firefox will enjoy all the security and obscurity that Opera has had for years now.
