A lot of amazing, innovative, and ambitious titles came out that year, but there is something to be said abut polishing a concept to perfection. I can safely say that Odyssey has the most mechanically satisfying movement of any 3D action game. That alone is worth accolades, but the fact that the rest of the game is so charming and fun to explore makes it my GOTY
Splatoon 2 user. The ink mechanic is so different and insanely useful along with gyro aiming. Though the multiplayer cancer the game is trying to work around is starting to coming back. AFK, spawn campers, squidbagging are really putting a toll on the game. Ironically it's lack of on system voice chat is acting like a very thick filter so I don't have to listen to the constant squeakers, fur fag yiffing, and raging fan boys. As long as S+ fags stay out of Turf war it's 10/10 to me

Although not all games can be for all players, Nintendo shows us that there is something to have fun with for everyone. It makes me feel like this is a Mario game that come right from the heart of what Mario games should be. Even with the Hat trick, I have gone back to Super Mario 64 and found myself attempting to Hat trick because they made it feel so natural and rewarding. I do like how we can talk about the mechanics, because there is a lot of depth to it all. Although you might not like everything about it, the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

AI pls leave

Agreed on the controls, but the level and mission design really isn't that great
Hudson Parker
Odyssey unironically has the best movement mechanics of any platformer I've ever played, but my 2017 GOTY was Aztez
2017 was a good year for vidya
Nathaniel Perry
I can only consider a game good if it's technically sound, decently challenging, and not bloated on filler. That means it can't lock content behind DLC paywalls, it shouldn't be casual, and it shouldn't run at 30 FPS.

I think BOTW takes it for me as traveling from place to place never feels boring to me as I could be taking a horse (like a fucking loser), drinking potions, a motorcycle, launching my self with Stasis, gliding and ect. Puts a fun spin on things
Nathan Bailey
I literally played no good games last year. Played gachashit too much and only just now realized how fucking cancer it is because I'm one slow motherfucker
Well, actually I played melee again with my bros over xmas, and that, astonishingly, was still fun as fuck. So Melee is my goty 2017

Can't decide between Persona 5/Mario/Zelda or Nier.
Blake Roberts
At least you woke up from your addiction
Andrew Thompson
It breaks my heart more people didn't get into Aztez.
It deserves to at least be on every contender list for 2017 GOTY
Noah Cooper
The game is something i managed to get my hands on. I had to spent many hours going into overtime at work to make sure i could preorder Super Mario Odyssey. I am really happy I made the extra effort to get the game, as it was worth every extra shift.

>but there is something to be said abut polishing a concept to perfection. Is that the shill way to say its a rehash?
Ryan Carter
The controls have always been the best part about playing Mario games.That's what really sets them apart from other platformers.
Joshua Wright
Splatoon 2 got boring after 3 weeks.
Luis Hall
This looks pretty stupid user.
Kayden Brown
This is one of the shittiest rankings I have seen in a good while.
Jacob Brown
What's "shitty" about it?
Samuel Sanders
Your opinion.
Matthew Ross
I hated the controls in Sunshine and the Galaxy games were merely passable.
Odyssey is the first time (unless you count BUILDING SPEED FOR 12 HOURS type of shit in 64) that Mario's movement mechanics have been technically complex rather than just varied and fun.
Watching people make The Impossible Jump in NDC or doing high wall scaling shortcuts is something I've never really seen done in other Mario games.
Elijah Kelly
I guess if you don't like stylish action games it might, but that would signify terrible taste in vidya
Daniel Morgan
And I suppose your opinion holds more merit?
Andrew Taylor
I dislike platformers with run buttons and the momentum in smb was inventive but I never liked it much
Lucas Wilson
lol
Jace Wilson
H.A.N.K? But yeah its my GOTY for 2017 too
Josiah Reyes
momentum spin jumps OP
Aaron Wilson
it's obviously made by some PC dork, salty he can't get his hands on any Switch/PS4 games, so he made the image to feel better about wasting $3,000 on his indie machine.

ACfag why do you post your tier lists in completely unrelated threads and list your same tirades every time, usually even replying to yourself in the exact same way if no one bothers to challenge you
Isaiah Myers
Nigga most games run at 30 fps Jfc
Levi Adams
Yep
Matthew Wright
Says the nintenbro
Aaron Parker
What do you mean?
Benjamin Williams
Nier
Easton Turner
nothing is and nothing ever will be. If you think you have achieved masterpiece then you might as well off yourself because you have won the human race, to develop and be better in every aspect possible.
Anthony Morris
HANK get out of here you cunt.
Jaxson Miller
...
Gavin Cook
Op didn't say it was?
Owen Turner
Lmao this list is so bad I refuse to believe you’re not trolling
Xavier Green
Janderson believes Undertale is a masterpiece and one of the greatest games of all time if a bit flawed.
Aaron Harris
Not that guy but I burned out on in about 3 weeks too, but picked it up this week to see the new ranked mode, new music and new modes and it really feels a lot better. No more trisloshers every match, thank god.
