Well it has 33 in it, and that game transcends anything I've ever played.

If you showed kid me this back when JRPGs were the kings of the mountain, he would've been blown away. Adult me? Also blown away.

This year will absolutely clap cheeks:
KCD2
33
Death stranding 2
Doom dark ages
MGS3 Remake
Oblivion Remastered
Fatal Fury
Elden Ring NR
Ghost 2

You throw in gta6? Yeah holy wow my wallet.
 
Good year, but Switch 2 and GTA do nothing for me, sooo...
Yeah....I agree about the Switch.....MK World and DonkeyKong don't move the needle for me. Blah....

I am interested in GTA6 but we need more original IP like Awowed, Blue Prince and Clair Obscura. Not endless sequels and remasters
 
In recent years, I'd say 2017 and 2023.

For 2017, we got:

- BOTW
- PUBG
- Nier Automata
- Super Mario Odyssey
- Prey
- Assassin's Creed Origins

and many others

For 2023 we got:

- Baldur's Gate 3
- Tears of the Kingdom
- Alan Wake 2
- Hi-Fi Rush
- Hogwarts Legacy
- Spider-man 2
- Metroid Prime Remastered
- Xenoblade 3
- Dead Space remake
- Resident Evil 4 remake
- Super Mario Bros Wonder
- Diablo IV
- Armored Core VI
- Jedi Survivor
- Octopath II
- Super Mario RPG remake

and may others.

It's like it was the first big year post-covid where everybody released a big game every week or so
 
I expected nothing from 2025 just some months ago and so far i can say it's the best year since 2007, KCD2 and Expedition 33 are two of the best WRPG/JRPG's i've played.

If Path of Exile 2 finally releases this year.... damn

Sadly i don't see anything else that's interesting at all, Tainted Grail maybe? GTA is zzz for me, Outer Worlds 2 and Ghost of Yotei are going to be bland stuff..

Wait, Slay the Spire 2 could make it this year too right? That'd be huge.

If only big american studios weren't a mere shadow of what they were 10-20 years ago, right?

Why is there no YouTube of a Tier Maker evaluating the quality of gaming years?
This would be prime reason to make a video.

Best I could find (and timestamped starting at #10)

This year will be the best for the sheer number of good titles out or coming out, but 1995 will be my personal fav year in game ever.
Where I got Astal, Pazner Dragoon, Sega Rally, Virtua Cop and Virtua Fighter 2, Layered Section Darius Gaiden, X-Men: COTA on the Saturn and Lunar Eternal Blue on the SEGA CD
