Best PC games of the past 5 years
- Thread starter HRL
- Start date
Dragon age inquisition was good, but pales in comparison to witcher 3. Certainly the second best rpg I've played recently.
There have been some amazing story driven games from Telltale (I highly recommend the walking dead season 1 and 2, as well as the Wolf among us)
Fps wise, there have been some great BF games, and as others have said the new wolfenstein games are great.
Alien isolation is not really a shooter, but is perhaps the most polished experience I have ever played. Just such a good game for atmosphere and story if you liked the alien films. So much tension!
Inside and Limbo are other very atmospheric games that are a joy to play through
Hitman absolution was, imo, very fun.
Payday 2 is great, although it's gone a bit nuts with dlc. Also best played with a team.
Portal 2 if you haven't played it was excellent

GTA V (still the most impressive game world I've ever seen in mamy regards), Sleeping Dogs (vastly underrated), Bioshock Infinite, Limbo, Oddworld New'n'Tasty, Inside, Phantom Pain, Tomb Raider 2013, Dirt Rally, Max Payne 3, Alan Wake, Shadow of Mordor, Arkham Knight, Metro 2033 & Last Light, The Vanishing of Ethan Carter, AC: Black Flag and many more;p

Alien Isolation - Visusally stunning and scary as *%$@ - best game for decades let alone 5 years.
Marvel Heroes - Action RPG, tons to do and everything can be had simply by playing. (free to play)
Planetside 2- Superb fps with thousands of players battling it out across humongous maps 24/7 - Gettting old now but it's still great fun.

I think maybe that wasn't clear. I meant DAI is the second best after the witcher. Nothing has come close to the witcher for me.
My List:
GTA 5
Witcher 3 (2 is alright also, 1 has decent story but combat sucks)
Dragon Age Origins / Inquisition (2 sucked)
Metal Gear Solid Phantom Pain
Dues Ex Human Revolution
Far Cry 3/4 (primal is decent)
Crysis
Mass Effect Series
Total War: Warhammer
Skyrim
Fallout Series
Xcom Enemy within / 2
Batman Arkham Series now the last one has been fixed decently
Bioshock
Dishonored
Supreme Commander Forged Alliance
Shadow Of Mordor
Metro Redux Series
Crysis Series
Assassins Creed Syndicate / Black flag / Enzo story arc
Tomb Raider Series
Pillers Of Eternity
Divinity Original Sins
Anno Series
Cities Skyline
Damm, I have played too many games, but these are my fav of the last few years and some going back abit like mass effect.

Got any better suggestions that aren't "Overhyped"?
most will be down to preference so others probably wont rate them as " their " best of the last 5 years.
my fav games of last 5 years
Titanfall 1 was different to the normal fps and played really well.
DirtyBomb.cant believe a free fps which i still play daily is still better once learned than most AAA fps games and totally free.
Dirt Rally. best rally game i played period also some of the best driving i played.
theHunter - i like hunting and it suits me and i play it daily.there isnt another good hunting game.
Dayz the mod.possibly most fun i had on PC with players i know and randoms.possibly best mp fun overall.shame they couldnt bring that to sa or the other arma mods which just arent as good.

Criminal how under-rated that game is by some
The combat was fun, but it's open-worldness just hindered the game for me. Was completely pointless as there was no side content, the Bruce Lee DLC was ace though.
