I need to get back into witcher 3

Telltale Games are like a Christmas pastime for me. Due to Steam winter sales, the recently completed TellTale season is usually 66% off and it takes about a day or two to go through.

I played both Walking Dead games and Wolf Among Us around Christmas. Probably do the same for Tales from the Borderlands and Game of Thrones.

Game of Thrones is really cinematic during it's fights.

Thats not what I meant :/

But doesn't a lot of companies do similar things?

Look at Rockstar, most of their games are roughly the same type of gameplay, especially for their open world games. They all follow the same formula. Does that make it bad thing? Nope.

For all the accolades Irrational Games gets, they make pretty much identical games. Aside from setting, both Bioshocks and System Shock 2 are mostly the same.

Most developers follow some sort of process that makes their games fairly similar to one another. Obviously there are different cases.

Sorry if your comment was not supposed to sound negative.

Mario Kart has rather similar gameplay than Pikmin.

Everything is a copy nowadays, I'm going to go back and play some Ballon Fight -people say that game is like Joust, but I don't see it-.

No love for Batman?

It was really good but cant compare to some of the mentioned imo.

I'd say it's as worthy of a place, if not moreso than the likes of Halo or MGS.

Though the disastrous PC launch should be counted too, imo.

I don't think it's worthy of a place, not like the previous Arkham's, but my condolences to Mark Hamill for not winning anything while being there at the awards show last night.

MK X does deserve a spot though...😖hifty:

So does Dying Light...😛

Batman and Dying Light maybe.

MKX? Ugh.

Honestly disagree, but that's me.

Undertale and Tales of the Borderlands are never going to win GOTY unless we're in Fantasy Land.

I don't even know why you put them on this list.

Also, what you just said is opinion-based.

Mortal Kombat X is the absolute best Mortal Kombat game ever made.

Look everywhere, you will be very hard-pressed to find anyone who doesn't agree.

Its never been on par with Street Fighter, or even Tekken, but its up there.

What is so appealing about these two not-so-gamey games that puts them on par with all the Triple A games we've gotten this year?...

Look at all the games we have on here, real powerhouse games, MGS, Mario Maker, FallOut 4, Witcher 3.

Then, Undertale? Tales of the Borderlands?

What have these games done to deserve being game of the year?

It's almost as if this is entirely subjective...

I know thats hypocritical, but I can't be the only one uncomfortable with Indies being Game of the Year when there are all these BIG budget games with amazing stories, and awesome gameplay.

Maybe you should play them and find out.

Undertale is better written and has more honest heart and soul than any game on that list except MAYBE Witcher 3. It also has stronger themes and more interesting commentary about games and game design. Plus it actually has legitimately inspired gameplay that isn't just copy-pasted from other games and manages to make the players choices matter more than probably any game I've ever played. Lastly it has ****ing amazing music.

Tales from the Borderlands is really funny.
