Give me nominations for the best new game you played this year. Didn't have to come out this year, just new to you this year.
Sometime in December I'll run a poll, for fediverse GOTY
Animal Crossing: New Horizons
Seriously didn’t have any free time today so I dabbled in Animal Crossing for the first time, actually had some fun.
If Pikmin came out this year I also played that
But well… I barely play games (sticking to anime/manga/novels instead).
>new game
>this year
mfw most of the games i played are from past years
does dlc/expansions count? new game is the one that released in 2024 or new to me?

@dielan@shitposter.world it doesnt really need a connection to anything. it gives you a very brief summary at the start of game, but if you want to learn about the base story, watching the granblue anime is enough to get the gist about the story before relink (basically relink starts where the animation stops).
for now i think i'll go with gt4 because i've just started oot
@dielan@shitposter.world @kura@hai.z0ne.social i'm very bad at finishing games, but relink is a pretty good action rpg imo. Didn't regret the purchase.
Old release but new to me: Choro Q Wonderful on the PS1. Absolutely wild game as it keeps going and would recommend.
@vala@shitposter.world @dielan@shitposter.world is it the reboot?

Zero Ranger, it was fun, I'd give it 8/10

Flip Witch, This one was straight up porn
That's all of them.
@dielan I played basically nothing this year. I started but haven't finished Siren (PS2), but I'm enjoying it pretty well. I guess I'd give it like 7 or an 8.
It's got a great gameplay loop, the story seems interesting so far, but some of the puzzles in the game feel kinda weird (like, how am I supposed to know I'm supposed to do X, then Y, then Z - seems arbitrary).
1000xRESIST
Underrail
Animal Well
Picked 3 from here. I'd include all of these but that would bloat the list a lot https://pl.kotobank.ch/notice/ApMjROh5tysHUVPKXA
