It's almost GOTY season. What's your top 5 games of the year [that you've played] thus far?

[stumblebee]

So, I'm not exactly expecting EVERY game on your list be from this year. This question is about games you've played for the first time, in 2018, that may have released a few years ago.

For example, in no particular order,

I think my top 5 games I played this year are:

Tetris Effect
DOOM (2016),
Nier Automata,
Monster Hunter World,
Titanfall 2 (Very likely my number 1)

What's yours?

In no order:

• Monster Hunter World
• Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age
• Valkyria Chronicles 4
• Red Dead Redemption 2
• Hollow Knight

 

[Mauricio_Magus]

• Dragon Quest 11
• Deltarune
• Dragon Ball FighterZ
• Celeste
• Monster Hunter World

That's for games released this year.

I also played The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky the 3rd, and that would be my GOTY for sure if I can count games from 2017.

 

[Calibro]

Hitman 2
Return of the Obra Dinn
The Gardens Between Us
SYNTHETIK
Into the Breach

All masterpieces without any bloat. Pure games. Deserve all the praise in the world.

 

[rochellepaws]

Of those I've played so far I'd pick:

Valkyria Chronicles 4
Spiderman
Warioware Gold
Dragon Quest XI
Sonic Mania Plus

 

[Cess007]

Shadow of the Colossus
Dark Souls 3
Guacamelee 2
Uncharted: Lost Legacy
Rayman Legends

As I've yet to finish RDR2 I can't put it in the list yet. And this year I've barely played games that launched in 2018, I've been going through my backlog instead.

Not sure about the others, but my top pick is definitely Celeste. That game just felt really special to me in a way I can't remember with any other game. Story and gameplay working together in a way I've never seen before.

1) Red Dead Redemption 2
2) Forza Horizon 4
3) God of War
4) Dead Cells
5) Probably Battlefield V from what I've played so far

Spider-Man
Monster Hunter World
Mega Man 11
Hollow Knight

Top 5 for me has to be:

Monster Hunter world.
God of war.
Spider-Man
Forza horizon 4.
Red dead redemption 2.
