I actually cannot think of a game that was released in 2022 that I've played and really really enjoyed....

Thats a real pity, as I say, I honestly cannot think of a single year in the last 41 years of gaming where I have gone the whole year without playing at least one game that I really really enjoyed. Should that year ever come then I will know my time with gaming is over. Thankfully it hasnt come yet :)

If you look back at last years, Nothing was actually the top result if I recall correctly. So it might well be that for some people its been 2 entire years since they played anything that they consider to be the best new game they've played. Fingers crossed for 2023 !

Agree with this - the problem is I have such a massive backlog that I rarely actually play games in the year they come out, so my GOTY might be something from 2 years prior :cry:
 
Dying Light 2 for me.
Tried Elden Ring and after 10-12 hours had utterly hated every minute I played so sacked it off. As a solely M&K player I couldnt stand the roly poly mechanics and mushy controls of Dark Souls so not sure what other result I was expecting.

Totally understand why and how its so popular though and it deserves all the praise its getting and I'm glad I bought it if not only to support the devs who are clearly one of the better ones around. Its just not a game for me.

I have this problem too, or I keep going back top games I enjoy for another playthrough - as I enjoy management / sim games as well as the usual AA guff :P.

This year I think Elden ring edged out GOW (which I also really enjoyed and only played for the first time on PC). My other big played games are still either EA or old lol

Thats pretty much the same for me. GOW would have been my GOTY if Elden Ring hadnt come along other than those almost all of the best games I played this year are EA titles as I play a lot of base building/survival sorts of games which always seem to be in early access for years and years.

Being 40 I've had my fair time of gaming and I have no intention of giving up any time soon. I just think the quality of games has just dropped off a cliff in regards to mechanics and story line so there is nothing really of note this year.

Exactly - Satisfactory is my big time sink and isn't due for 1.0 for a little bit yet.
 
Don't think I have got into any single game this year. Tried a few but nothing has grabbed me. I just think they are all style over substance these days. Flashy graphics with no actual gameplay.
 
Mount and Blade Bannerlord officially came out this year but I've not really played it since the official release so doesn't really count I guess.

I've played fair amount of Farming Simulator 22 but that actually came out towards the end of 21.

So nothing from me.

Next year we will have hogwarts legacy, and the latest Bethesda game. Those surely will be worthy of top spot and push down no game/nothing. Hopefully

And Baldurs Gate 3, Sons of The Forest, Star Wars Jedi Survivor, Stalker 2, Diablo 4, Starfield and hopefully Warhammer Roguetrader. Surely got to be something in that little lot for everyone
