Outriders is better than people say once you realize it’s not a cover loot shooter despite the chest high walls but more of a run and gun magic shooter with loot. However it doesn’t have “staying power”. Kind of a One and Done with friends game.
I played the game a few weeks ago, they fixed some bugs, but content wise the game is still pretty much the same. So everything shiny and good looking is ingame store exclusive…
They also do not explain all the values of the weapons and armor to this day…I don’t know this game needs a complete overhaul of all core systems except gameplay, sound and graphics…
I played Forza Horizon 4, 5, and 1 in that order. I’ve never played motorsport. I absolutely love the driving and the freedom the game offers. Can someone tell me if I would like Motorsport? Other racing games I’ve enjoyed are burnout, need for speed, and Mario kart.
Baldur’s Gate III just came out and it’s an absolutely phenomenal RPG
Octopath Traveler II is also a really great RPG
Zelda Tears of the Kingdom came out earlier this year, which was also amazing, though obviously that’s (officially) only on Switch
Final Fantasy XVI was super fun, but that one is a PlayStation 5 exclusive
Then there is Starfield, the big new Bethesda game is space
A new Yakuza (though the series is being renamed to “like a dragon” now) game is coming out later this year as well (it’s a very storied game series though, if you’re not familiar with it, I’d suggest starting with either Yakuza 0 or Judgment)
Early this year there was actually another Like a Dragon game, Like a Dragon: Ishin, which is also great
A new Assassin’s Creed comes out soon as well, which is going back to a more traditional gameplay loop (recent entries were RPG-like, and this is going to be more stealth focused again like AC1-Unity)
Armored Core 6 is supposedly also a really good game where you build your mech to fight big enemies (though I personally don’t know much about that game)
Hi-Fi Rush was a really really good game, it’s a sort of rhythm adventure game where you have to fight in the beat of the music.
Ubisoft is also releasing their Avatar (blue Aliens, not the air bender) game late this year (December if I’m not mistaken), which should scratch your FarCry itch, I’d say.
I’m sure there are more that I either forgot or aren’t necessarily my wheelhouse, but those are the big ones
Awesome rundown — thank you 🙏 I enjoyed the only Assassin’s Creed I played (Egypt one) so a new one coming out is exciting! The Bulder’s Gate game definitely sounds like a hit though I’ve not played many RPGs in the past. Might also check out that rhythm game — sounds like a novel idea for a game, which is always refreshing.
Only some are purchasable at the moment. Last I checked there’s a rumored remake being done or something so that might be why they were removed, but I have no clue really.
But my friends have said this is the worst year of gaming since like ever? What am i supposed to do with all these incredible games that keep ruining their narrative?
Not sure why you’re downvoted; I agree, still pretty good games this year. I like GP because this way I can try these indie games I would probably haven’t bought otherwise.
In what way? I feel like I have way too many games on my list, but not enough time… Zelda, Diablo 4, BG3, Bomb Rush Cyberpunk, Starfield, Street Fighter 6, the list goes on
It's pretty different from the soulsborne games. Fast paced mech action with a focus on tinkering with builds. I'd watch some videos from vaatividya or iron pineapple to get an idea of how it plays.
