Yes they really put Mass Effect Androgyny above Nier
David Perry
That's the readers' top 50, the staff's is much worse.
Anthony Allen
No that is the staff's choice.
Reader's choice had Nier at #5
Christian Torres
Activision has 100% paid for Destiny 2 to get such high ratings from every website. The game is a boring slog filled with relentless abusive microtransactions.
Sebastian Ward
It may be a walking sim, but What Remains of Edith Finch was actually pretty goddamn interesting. Not top 5 interesting, but I could see it being top 15-20. I don't think I saw a single thread on Sup Forums about it though.
Tyler Bailey
WHERE IS DREAM DADDY?
Jeremiah Parker
Oh, you're right. Yeah, the staff's list is pretty much "I'm too old for video games" soydad list, so games that are easy to digest are up there. That and their voting system among staff was kind of shit. I prefer the way dualshockers did it, you had individual, shorter GOTY lists.
You'd think that, but an absurd amount of people bought the game and still countless people play it because of sunk cost fallacy or because "it's fun with friends" and they think it'll get better.
Luis Anderson
Top20 is pure pleb
Gavin Edwards
>when DF is pulling more subscribers than EuroGamer main branch I can imagine the staff meetings.
Levi Long
what is DF
Isaac Brooks
>39. Lawbreakers ???
Jordan Thomas
>47. Persona 5 Stopped reading there
Dylan Taylor
>yakuza 0 over War of the Chosen
Already trash.
Cooper Carter
Digital Foundry. They are part of euro gamer as focus on benchmarks and vidya tech analysis but their youtube channel has more subs than euro gamer main channel which is aimed toward the normie crowd.
Jack Cox
>Autistamata at 36 Yeah, that's about as high as that should go.
Bentley Walker
>41. Pyre This is how you know the list is bullshit. It's probably based on how much money they get from each dev/publisher
Charles Wood
>Pity poor Cliff Bleszinski. Okay, so he's probably not that poor and still rolls up to work in a Ferrari, but Lawbreakers deserved a better fate than the one it's currently enduring. See through the generic artwork and you'll be met with one of 2017's very best shooters, one that's inventive and full of boisterous energy. It's brilliant, in short, and if there's any justice it'll end up finding its audience.
Oliver Peterson
Deliciously Flat. It's a reference to superior flat chested girls.
Jeremiah Anderson
BILLION
Adam Sullivan
DF top 5 list. The first one I've seen without BotW
5. Nier: Automata 4. Cuphead 3. Super Mario Odyssey 2. Prey 1. Sonic Mania
Grayson Reed
This, it should've been much higher.
Michael Richardson
Thats the list of John Linneman and not the DF official list.
Eli Davis
>37. Everything REALLY now?
Anthony Martin
>xcom 2 that low Stopped reading there
Jace Moore
>Apparently Cow of Duty World whore 2 is better than >Xcom 2: WoT, Persona 5, Pyre, Ruiner......
Is funny thought that Everything is better than Cod.
Sebastian Rodriguez
Good list imo
Logan Parker
i'm worried
Asher Davis
>What Remains of Edith Finch What the fuck is this and why do I keep seeing it everywhere?
Leo Allen
>Digital Foundry's GOTY was Sonic Mania The Patrician choice.
Gavin Brooks
>soydad
What is wrong with this place? What does this even mean?
Asher Lewis
...
Henry Murphy
>35. Nioh
Absolute fucking bullshit. Pleb-tier nigger cunt fuck of a list.
Matthew Kelly
People in their thirties acting like they're in their 20s, with the latter based on a false interpretation of what's hip gained through social media and trends. The hipsters of yesterday who grew up. Chic dilettantes.
In this case, it's people who aren't as passionate about gaming, and have other responsibilities to boot. They might have the mind to appreciate the work put into a game, but will generally get along with shorter games, or games with short-term rewards.
Cameron Thomas
There is a movie called The Comedy. I recommend you watch it,it sums up the current social landscape quite well.
Joshua Powell
...
Luis Fisher
I'd rather get that bitching glass set than a memebox
Charles Walker
The only reason why I would consider Xbone is backward emulation and piracy.
Dylan Bennett
Better than being in your twenties and acting like you're in your teens like the manchildren of Sup Forums. What's wrong with people growing up and gaining appreciation for different kinds of video games?
Jaxon Nelson
>When I was a child, I used to speak like a child, think like a child, reason like a child; when I became a man, I did away with childish things. As you grow older once supposed to become wiser and see through the veils of creation. These people are nurtured since day one to be spineless creatures that dont know their ass from elbow.
Cooper Carter
Go suck a fat cock you pseud, employed adults who have responsibilities but still try to find the time to enjoy video games outside of those are infinitely less childish than the Sup Forumsirgin neckbeards who shirk from such responsibilities and retreat into their fantasy worlds where they can be 13 forever. As if anyone who ever unironically used the word "soydad" could possibly know anything about the world that can't be found either in his basement or on Sup Forums.
Landon Bennett
>Go suck a fat cock you pseud You sure showed me.
Samuel Foster
>47. Persona 5 Stopped reading there
Ian Scott
>Better than being in your twenties and acting like you're in your teens No? I'm sure you're proud of writing that zany comeback but it's pretty much the same problem with different results and in a different age group.
>What's wrong with people growing up and gaining appreciation for different kinds of video games? It's less gaining appreciation and more about losing appreciation. You can pretty this kind of thinking with ribbons and bows but at the end of the day these people are jaded and they no longer hold the same enthusiasm for the same range of games they once did, and the hobby becomes more of a habit than a passion (case in point how they continue to fire up Destiny 2 in spite of writing almost nothing positive about it).
I'm sorry adulthood sucked the soul out of you too, user, so much so that your envious of and angry towards others who survived growing up.
Justin Williams
Is that good or bad? Persona always looked like weeb game to me.
Josiah Robinson
>No? I'm sure you're proud of writing that zany comeback but it's pretty much the same problem with different results and in a different age group. So not the same problem then. Fact is the difference between teens and twenties are a lot bigger than those between twenties and thirties. >You can pretty this kind of thinking with ribbons and bows but at the end of the day these people are jaded and they no longer hold the same enthusiasm for the same range of games they once did, and the hobby becomes more of a habit than a passion Are you sure you're not just projecting? How often do I read on this very board that video games all suck now or that only a narrow range of video games are acceptable?
Grayson Nelson
>P5 47 >Nier 36 >Sonic Mania 27
>Lawbreakers 39, above P5 >Mass Effect: Andromeda 26, above P5, Nier and Sonic Mania
I mean, the list isn't good in most places, but holy shit, this is awful.
Lucas Nelson
>FOR HONOR >FIFA 18 (and not just because its a sport game, fifa 18 is the worst fifa in a while) >hellblade >Arms >Andromeda >Fortnite (dead until they had to copy pubg to be relevant)
Brandon Evans
the reader's top 50 is way better retard
Jonathan Brown
It is the same problem. Just take your medicine and read again. The core issue is a lack of maturity in both age groups.
>Are you sure you're not just projecting? Nope. I enjoy a lot of different games, sorry. Pretty much the only genres I steer clear of are time sink strategies, MOBAs and to a lesser degree racing games. Your argument basically boils down because group A is shit, that makes group B's shit justifiable. It's a logical fallacy.
