BOTW or Bloodborne? Which deserves to be called Game of the Generation?

[Deleted member 1839]

Two games that a lot of people on this forum really like where I've seen both games be called some of the best games of during the last several years or even being the absolute best of all time.

When it comes down to the wire and you have to only pick one however, which out of the two would you consider the game of the generation?

 

[TheInfinityGauntlet]

Yakuza 0

 

[Carian Knight]

RDR 2.

 

[Lotus]

Breath of the Wild

Spoiler

Nier Automata

 

[Farrac]

First post hijacked the thread already, because it's true.

Spoiler

Maybe BOTW, but I like Bloodborne too

 

[SgtCobra]

Oh God

 

[Kuga]

Outer Wilds

 

[jimtothehum]

Last of Us 2

 

[Modi]

Witcher 3

 

[Chumunga64]

DMC 5

 

[Dancrane212]

RDR 2.

Between the two in the OP? Yeah, I could be happy with the above.

Too early for me to consider anything from this year, but I'd also toss INSIDE out there.

 

[Dolce]

Uh, I don't really care much about either.

 

[Agni Kai]

You don't wanna do this, OP.

 

[Shark]

God of War

 

[Kinthey]

Witcher 3

 

[Adder7806]

Rainbow Six Siege

 

[Jaded Alyx]

Oh I'm sure this thread will be nice and civil

 

[LoNe_eXiLe]

Witcher 3
NeiR:Automata

 

[Xbox Live Mike]

BOTW I feel is more accessible than Bloodborne making it the better choice for game of the gen.

 

[catashtrophe]

Bloodborne

 

[Deleted member 39374]

On what grounds, criteria, or category?

If we're just going by sheer influence and popularity then it's probably fucking fornite or destiny

 

[Deleted member 56803]

Kentucky Route Zero

 

[Jawbreaker]

The answer is always Bloodborne. If it's not, you just need to be granted more eyes.

 

[Fulminator]

Bloodborne

 

[Count of Monte Sawed-Off]

Neither.

 

[Einbroch]

Genshin Impact.

 

[Zachary_Games]

The Last of Us: II

To play the rules, Bloodborne even though it's truthfully TLoU:II.

 

[Kuro]

Bloodborne is the better game to me but BoTW will end up being more influential in open world design to some extent. Bloodborne is already part of the sphere of influence that Souls has created.

 

[Last_colossi]

It's close but, BOTW.

 

[Deleted member 73507]

Knack 2

 

[TronLight]

I love Bloodborne, but it's Breath of the Wild. Also Yakuza 0.

 

[Grudy]

Without a doubt it's bloodborne for me. I was much more immersed in its characters and world than I was with BotW.

 

[J75]

Judgment

 

[Deleted member 2109]

Ride to Hell: Retribution

 

[monali]

Don't care about the consensus, for me tho it's either Rain world or The wonderful 101.

 

[ClickyCal']

Part II

 

[Meech]

Bloodborne for me.

But Half-Life: Alyx is GOTG.

 

[DNAbro]

Undertale

 

[lvl 99 Pixel]

The Witcher 3 probably
(of those 2 then Bloodborne)

I'd say more on a personal level.

 

[xem]

bloodborne. not even close for me. where is the poll?

 

[Weiss]

Why not both

They can be the Games of the Generation

 

[Dever]

Dark Souls 3 and Sekiro are both better than Bloodborne

 

[Angst]

Bloodborne is the best souls game and BOTW is the worst 3d zelda.

So bloodborne.

 

[Tibarn]

Both games are amazing, but IMO Bloodborne is just another Souls game, Dark Souls or even Demon's Souls are more relevant and fresh (when they were released). Sekiro is IMO a better game than BB and a better evolution of the "Souls" formula.

On the other hand, BotW re-defines open world games and offers lots of things I love but didn't know I wanted.

 

[Cess007]

Bloodborne

BoTW wouldn't enter my top 10 of this gen, I fear

 

[Pascal]

Ugh don't make me choose between my children.

Spoiler

BotW probably

 

[Necron]

Why always these difficult choices, man.

Life's hard enough right now.

Spoiler

It's totally Bloodborne, though.

 

[CptSupermarket]

Neither. The Witcher 3 is the correct answer.

 

[Derachi]

Yakuza 0
