What was the best game you played through-out your entire '25

[Pearly]

You're really pushing there

Uh...

Rift of the Necro Dancer
Doom: The Dark Ages
Mega Man 8

phew I actually managed to list 3 games

Mega man 8 is THE most underrated mega man game. I love that game so much. When I hear the soundtrack, I'm suddenly 8 years old again!


Hmm, 3?

Majoras mask 3d, with the soundtrack patch and the project restoration patch, best way to play the game IMO

SMT V: Vengeance

Hyrule warriors definitive edition

As you can tell, I like to enjoy myself

Egads, this probably says just as much about me as it does the industry as a whole, but all 3 of my fav games so far this year have been remasters/remakes.

1: System Shock 2 remaster
2: Raidou Remastered
3: Oblivion remastered

I really wish the simplicity of those games, and just how fun and quick to pick up and put down was present in most modern titles. I bought Avowed and liked it, but it lacked the simplicity of Oblivion, as well as its world authenticity, if that's a word.

 

[bjork]

Blue Prince
Tokyo Xtreme Racer (the newer one)
Dragonsweeper

 

[Questless Knight]

my best 25? You mean this year ? Then I would say
Warhammer 40,000 Space Marine 2
Darkest Dungeon
Dragons Dogma II

If you mean in the last 25 years then I would need to think long and hard on that one.

 

[RETRO-VETRO RETRO-VETRO]

my best 25? You mean this year ? Then I would say
Warhammer 40,000 Space Marine 2
Darkest Dungeon
Dragons Dogma II

If you mean in the last 25 years then I would need to think long and hard on that one.

Nah, I mean in 2025

 

[Questless Knight]

Nah, I mean in 2025

Yeah then are my favorite games I beaten fully this year are
Final Fantasy XVI
Potion Permit
EverSpace
Visions of Mana
Rimmworld


I would wanna add But reason I won´t is.
Oblivion remastered = Honestly I never been a fan of Oblivion and even If I like the remaster honestly I like Daggerfall and skyrim and even morrowind mich more.

Monster hunter wilds = Because the game was way way to easy and run poorly even on a 4090 card with 64GB of ram Not my PC but that the spec on PC´s from Geforce now. But yeah game to damn easy and runs poorly because it uses RE engine which is bad for little more open world like games.

I love monster hunter world allot and I do like wilds but I miss the good old days when you did not have infinite sharping, you had to use pain balls to keep track on monsters you had to plan more you had to work more.
