I love when I’m looking for something to watch and a Gameranx upload shows up
They just uploaded again!! Lol
I agree!
Fax
And you can't skip their videos 🔥 lol
It’s honestly one of my favorite feelings lol
Indie games have been absolutely killing it on PC in 2022! So many talented small studios putting out some seriously impressive stuff. It's great to see the creativity and innovation they bring to the table. Can't wait to see what other gems the future holds for us indie game fans!
Yea its everything that was in the soul of the AAA market thst was sold for money lol
A lot of triple A games have been same-old, and with dev teams moving to smaller shops, or opening their own to get out of crunch culture and other shitty work conditions, the Indy game scene has started to become utterly incredible. Don't get me wrong, I love glorious graphics, but Gimmie a /fun/ and engaging game and I'm in. Love to see it!
What are some of your favorites?
@@BrandonAdams1010 the Mortuary Assistant is pretty magnificent if you're into spooky vibes! It's procedurally generated in its scares, so you never know what's going to happen
Great as always. Love your content. Keeps me sane everyday. Keep up the work. You guys are the goats of CZcams gaming content.
Much appreciated!
THIS is what I have been waiting for! Them triple AAA games usually come our way, but the PC segment really deserves it's own video to get into all it's many exclusives and indies. Thanks fams!
Yes indies have taken over AAA a few years ago already in heart. And 2022 is absolute blast, a golden year in the history of gaming like 96 and 98.
Gunvein is missing from the list though, it's rare to have great SHMUP like this and even for casual like me it's too goood.
@@kroooassant9899 2018, 2011 and 2007 were the best years in gaming, imo
@@MobikSaysStuff what games do you have in mind? You need multiple platforms to show top notch games in order to validate a golden year imo like 1996 and 1998 nintendo, ps1 and pc all got legendary or cult games these years I can't find top games from these years on top of mind, maybe 2018 but I don't know the games release date by heart ;)

there are a bunch more, a lot of classic titles came out in 2007 as well, but this reply is already long enough XD
I always love these lists to find out what I missed!
Glad you like them!
Teardown for sure! Really fun gameplay with surprisingly good performance (although some of the mods can get crazy)
The daily gift of a Gameranx video is something I relish even if the content is not catered to my tastes as a console gamer.
Half these games are on console. Lots of recycling going on here.
Would add the entropy Centre 😊 great game, has a valve feel that makes it feel both like a spiritual sequel to portal, while also feeling unique enough to justify its own franchise.
Amazing content as always keep it up!! 😀😀
Thanks! Will do!
Hi gameranx!
hi
lets go 2023 , we will be expecting tons of new great games released. and the review from gameranx after that xD. more games more content !
Dead Space 💪💪🔥
Great list, I am so happy we had PS5 ports, because I loved GoW, Uncharted and Spiderman and how well optimized they are, incredible games.
Some of these games I didn't even heard of. Going to look some of them up. Thanks for the list!
Great video, this compilation is very much appreciated and I'm glad you guys like Scorn!
scorn was underwhelming and terrible
Thanks for how you structured the video, with the time stamps. Very useful.
I totally forgot about Planet Crafter! It was lost in my wish list. Your video prompted me to finally pick it up. Thanks! 😃
Thanks for the list Gameranx
God of War and Elden Ring are obviously fantastic games, but my game of the year goes to A Plague Tale Requiem - what an emotional rollercoaster and an absolute piece of art all around.
Nothing beats an amazing and innovative story
IF HUGO DIED IN THE FIRST PART, WE WOULD NOT HAVE A MASTERPIECE LIKE REQUIEM
None of them come close to the Majestic Elden Ring.
How was the PC performance? The recommended system specs have put me off the game for now.
@@lycanwarrior2137 I have a 3050 on laptop and it's on high presets, but sometimes the game fps drops when going to a new region of the map, I experienced a crash once
I'm really happy to see some love to Chained Echoes. One of the best games of the year to me
Crisis Core was one of the first video games I forced myself to finish as a kid, and I will never regret it. Such an amazing game and story with a very fun and unique combat system. And such amazing character writing all round.
Same here it's a big nostalgia game for me
love you guys thanks for existing
❤️
this channel makes me so happy. I could watch your content all day, great work everyone
Great list. Happy to see Grounded on this list. Underrated survival game that is so accessible for adults and kids. You never feel behind in this wonderful game.
Absolutely. My brothers and I are all over this game. Great change of pace and scenery from the usual...
I've been keeping this game in my steam wishlist, the only thing that's holding me is the price is not cheap for me even after sale, need to increase my budget XD
Love grounded but haven’t played since the 1.0 release. Need to get the boys back together
Hellooooooo 😁More top notch recommendations.
hi paul
Me well knowing my PC can’t run most of these but still watching the video😅
The Ascent is actually what i've always imagine what a futuristic cyberpunk world would look like !
Barony is by far one of the funnest and most infuriating games I have ever played with friends, it comes off as old RuneScape mixed with Minecraft in a rogue like dungeon crawler where the goal is to delve deeper and deeper into a dungeon filled with monsters and traps I promise you that if you get this game and you play with friends it will be the most frustrating but rewarding experience and the only advice I will give you is turn on friendly fire and watch for boulders
Thank you for the Planet Crafter shout-out!!!
Console gang where ya at
👇🏽
the judgment series was a highlight for me!
im glad jake did this and not falcon
Thanks for introducing me to Cult of the Lamb.. it's super good!! :)
just built my first pc and you guys are the only ones I trust to tell me what to buy first
It's kind of remarkable how Rollerdrome got forgotten so quickly given that nobody even put it in their honourable mentions list
Because it is a niche game and I read the reviews on steam, most people drop the game halfway because it gets very difficult and that's a game design issue not the players given how many have this issue, even people who used to play tony hawk back then. See Tony Hawk 2 was relatively hard but you had motivation to keep going until you became good, Thunderdome is good but the peak in difficulty out of nowhere kills it. It is a great title for its creativity no doubt and that should be praised but there are better experiences out there I think it's that simple.
Thanks for the content. Just built my first gaming pc so looking for something fun to test it.
I can't believe they finally finished dwarf fortress
The games we've been playing this year are tiny tinas wonderlands, satisfactory, elden ring, cult of the lamb, and high on life and my friend just picked up god of war. But out of everything the game that really had us hooked recently is satisfactory, my friend has been straight up missing work to log hours in that game.
Love your content bro, thanks for everything anytime ✌️
🤝
The outro that's cut a little. Best start of the year lol
Although 2022 has been a pretty rough year overall, the silver lining has definitely been the fantastic selection of games that have been released for PC. These indie titles have provided a much-needed escape and a source of enjoyment during these difficult times.
It's amazing to see the level of creativity and quality that continues to come out of the gaming industry, and I'm grateful to have these amazing titles to play and help get through the year. Here's to hoping for a brighter future and even more incredible games in the years to come!"
2023 will be better, he will give us the muller powell
My favorite was embers adrift. It is an indie MMO. With no cash shop and weekly updates. Best armor system in any game I've seen.
i love you for mentioning entropy zero 2!
The way you describe Scorn is how all my exes would describe me
Lol epix comment
7:27 - Honey I shrunk the kids. Not sure if many remember that film. I loved watching it as a kid and I rewatched a year or so ago. Great film! A Classic!
I would highly recommend Project Zomboid for a list like this if not for the fact that it's still technically in development. It's a brutally challenging isometric zombie survival game with a big focus on realism. It's extremely punishing (to the point where it isn't for everyone). However, for the hardcore zombie survival fans out there, I can easily recommend it as the best option on the market.
It's been in development by a small indie team for several years now, but the current build of the game (41) was a massive leap forward. It added a ton of content and mechanics (including multiplayer), and build 42 probably isn't far off. The game has picked up a lot of steam recently, and looks to only keep getting bigger and better. Again, I know it doesn't technically belong on this list since it's still in active development, but I would definitely recommend not sleeping on that one.
Yea its a fun game but imo it gets boring pretty quickly when u dont have any friends to play with... if ur alone expect playing all by yourself all the time and maybe, just maybe if ur lucky enough find friendly people to team up with in game. For people who love survival games and colony managing games id definitely recommend rimworld, mainly made by 1 dude and theres a massive mod community ( over 18k mods and new ones are getting released all the time ) to add up even more diversity to the many different gameplays u can have. It should have been in this list instead of dwarf fortress tbh, but dwarf fortress is still good aswell
This H. R. Giger / Alien inspired Scorn looks out of this world and awesome.
drinking game, every time Jake says loveletter
Glad you guys mentioned chained echoes.. that game slaps and it was made by just 1 guy
long time fan love all of your videos
I WOULD LOVE A BEST 2022 COUCH COOP GAME'S VID :>
Great list! Kinda salty tho it was released the same date as Steam Sale ends but what can you do, I'll patiently wait until summer.
Great Video
thx this video was so good and helpfoul good taste in games my guy!
😀
Love that a lot of these games are on PS5 😊
Sony just carrying pc gaming also now. Kinda funny.
Played the 2 Spidey games, Good fun finally for a PC gamer ^^^^
Glad to see Chained Echoes here I'm about 55 hours into this 900MB game and it is by far the best JRPG I've played in years we need way more eyes on this one.
Loved it too. Got a good 60-70 hours out of it.
Really need to get into the Total War games
Amazing Video
I still wanna know where the pizza is at my guy. 🍕
🍕
Top 30 of the best games and still can't see a game I reckon I'll enjoy, must be old age getting to me
Hi, look up entropy centre, relicta, superliminal, recursive ruin, manifold garden
Words can not describe how happy I am in the fact a Monster Hunter game was top 5
wow thanksss great video
Maybe I'm just getting old, but I found Stray to be a surprisingly hard game, and the Zurks in the Sewers level are an absolute roadblock.
I bought an X Box controller for my PC because at 60 I kinda suck at Keyboard & rodent now. Maybe look at controllers or a GOOD GAMING MOUSE
I'd love to check out Dwarf Fortress, but I'm already a bit slow with Rimworld and am a bit afraid if I start I'll end up in a black hole of my lifetime. Haha. One day I may try it anyway.
Other games of 2022 I feel are worth a recommendation are Age of Empires IV, Victoria 3, Expeditions: Rome, and Pentiment.
Great list! Thank you!
2023 will be amazing for SP gaming.
Lets goo I love this
I love that you separate your videos into chapters. I with some OTHER video game list channels would do that.
It's 3AM...I stopped gaming and decided to have one last peek at CZcams before going to bed
*2 new Gameranx video notifications*
Guess I'm not going to bed just yet ^^
I really liked Plague Tale Requiem! The first game was a bit rough around the edges, but the sequel feels really polished. If you can stomach subtitles, I STRONGLY recommend playing it with the French audio. The voice actors are stellar and the immersion is so good!
Although I have to say, I do speak some French, so your mileage may vary.
Teardown takes me back to playing Blast Corps on N64!
Solid list!
PC gaming was saved by indie this year.
It was very much needed with the obscene prices hardware got to,
a trend that is getting even worse in 2023.
Long live the indie scene, with its innovation, its freshness, and its low specs requirements!
Just a little feedback:
your "see you next time here on gameranx" line got cut off just as it was starting, at the end of the video.
Thanks for your videos!
I love this video , i sub
Was really hoping for a love letter strand type game to switch gears with
That ending though.
Darktide might be a top ten game this time next year but as of now, every one of your honorable mentions deserved it's spot more. Even you had a caveat about the way the game plays.
I agree. Darktide is a lot of fun...when it's working. The game feels so incredibly unfinished and broken. I think my friends and I have had the game crash almost consistently, like hard crash. How they sold this game at full price in it's state is insane.
I have to say, as a PC guy whose saving to build his next one, cause I was dumb and got the motherboard fried as a result have been away from gaming for months now. It's awesome to see PC games dominate this list..
Just when I thought of heading to bed after watching tons of stuff.......it's already 2:30 am lol
Crisis Core has some very fun combat that encourages and rewards you for trying new builds.
Also, FF7 Remake came out on PC in 2022.
2021 December for PC but only via Epic games.
Still the best channel on CZcams!
Would be awesome if you guys shortly included the minimum and recommended requirements for individual games
I feel Potionomics would be a great addition to this list.
The most fun game ive played these couple of days is chivalry 2 . I love it
Dying Light and Indie games were absolutely brilliant previous year
TUNIC was amazing and I just bought God of War. Will be starting it tomorrow, it looks so good!
If you are into story games with stunning visuals, try out Arise a simple story, and thank me later ... its so underrated honestly
Persona 5 royal was so surprisingly good. I don't like Jrpgs or anime or life Sims but this game combined them all into the perfect package. There is a sequel but the the first new character was a little too anime for me
I can't find any other games like Persona 5 Royal. I love the game and I wish there were more games like it so I could experience it more. I was looking for good games and Persona 5 Royal immediately caught my eye and climbed the ranks of my favorite games. It's definitely my top 3, probably will be my favorite of all once I get farther into the game.
@@copycruelif you dont mind the graphics, persona 4 golden was amazing, personally imo it had a more relatable cast and i loved the story and music in p4g. Highly recommend if u havent played it
you should do top 10 or so indie games
To be very honest, I really love your content from the core of my heart. I would like to thank you for keeping your audience, like me, entertained with authentic & updated info about TOP GAMES. Just keep this good work up♥️
Will do. thanks
I liked and it went from 3.9k to 4k. That’s pretty cool I think.
Potion Permit and Nobody Saves the World deserve to be on this list.
Funny thing is I don’t even play games on pc I’m console only but I see a gameranx video and I click
Them vids are just that fun
20 best Single Player games from 2010-2020 please.
With Elden Ring taking 1st place and God of War being further back I absolutely endorse this list 👍
At this point they put out so many videos they basically recommend every game that pays them to recommend.
7:49 haha good one
Vampire survivors seems like the closest I'll get to playing Merlin's revenge outside of a flash game.
A gamer is never late nor is he early he arrives precisely when he means to :- Gandalf the gamer
I pretty much knew what number one would be, so just watched for 2 through 30. It's to the point now where you need a list of best games of 2022 that aren't Elden Ring.
Cat game looks amazing 👏
