    What I like about Dead Ialand 2 was that it looks exactly as advertised and the game didn't have any bugs. I had more fun with Dying Light because there is so much to do but I hope they continue the Dead Island series. For the time being, Danbuster should focus on adding more content for Dead Island 2. Haven't been on for a while. Maybe there is more now.

      It just felt very forgettable and I wasn't motivated to play a lot of the sidequests afterwards.
      The atmosphere is good at times during some of the heavily scripted sequences but that's about it.

    I think there should be a split on genres for certain games. Like for Final Fantasy, I think there should be both fast action games, AND turn-based games. I feel the same about Pokémon as well, where there should be both open 3D games that could even shake up the combat a bit, as well as traditional top-down turn-based games. Both series are large enough that they could squeak by financially making both kinds of games. The "big" 3D releases, and the smaller budget "traditional" games.

    Even though Atomic Heart does have an "open area", I found this area extremely hard to explore and enjoy due to the infinitely spawning enemies. There is really nothing to discover except for those training grounds (mini dungeons?) and it serves no major function besides going from one main underground area (Main dungeons) to another in order to advance the story. In terms of level design I think it's more comparable to BioShock 2, where you could traverse the open sea to go from one area to another. I really hope the developers decides to do another Atomic heart because the world, setting, and story they created deserves to be further explored. They just need to decide whether to do an open world kind of game or a more linear one like bioshock.

    Zelda TotK is just, wow. It has so many problems, and yet the new tools and gameplay mechanics are undeniably a thrill. Nintendo just missed the holy grail with it by not fixing BotW's innumerable issues. I do miss the old Zelda formula, but hey, what we got this year was pretty fun.

    The main issue I have with The Crew Motorsport and the new Avatar game being on this list is, in the light of Ubisoft's removal of the Crew (and the ability to play the single player portion offline on your own), we have no way of knowing if we can play these games later in the future. What they did with The Crew makes it more of a rental than an actual purchase than we have seen before and I feel they need to think on hard on such a decision. I am, for example, not buying either of these 2 until I figure out if they plan on releasing an offline patch so I can play this game on my own.

    • @DKTronics70

      They kind of did the same with the Trackmania franchise, where it's now just more of a service type game where you rent it for a year, or whatever tier you want to pay for, and will never be able to be played in the future because it's no longer an offline game. You can play it for free, but it's more limited now than it was when it first released as Stadium.

      @@DKTronics70 It's true that Trackmania is less than it used to be, but the Crew will be unplayable once this change goes through. This sort of idiocy should give everyone that wants to buy any more games digitally (which, let's be honest is quickly becoming the only option) reason to think twice since they have no idea what their purchase will be worth down the road. This goes double for any sort of game with a multiplayer mode baked in like the Crew's.

    This year was amazing for gaming (and VR gaming), and a large chunk of the plethora of great games was Open World games, and I have to give it to Cyberpunk, because it obviously wasn't one of 2020's best, but as Falcon already critiqued (more elaborately), they turned that game around in a big way, finally making it the game we all wanted at launch. But Hogwartz Legacy.. THAT was the biggest surprise hit for me, and I'm not even a big HP fan, it's just a really good open world game with some excellent combat and progression

That's actually pretty damn accurate, actually. I haven't played the game, not really a racing fan. But I've lived in Hawaii off and on since birth, and Oahu is one of the main islands I spent time on (Hawaii/ Big Island for the locals reading being the other one).

But I digress, entirely different combat systems have been developed in the engine. Modders have created Sekiro's combat inside of Skyrim. It's not the engine.

All the time I played it I was either thinking about how good FO4 is in comparison, or about the first review I read about Assassins Creed, which was, basically, "they have built an incredible world but forgot to put a game in it". The latter is probably the best definition I have for Starfield. Incredible world. But they forgot to put a game in it.

I just want a game with random targets, random events, random maps. Something more random than hitman or AC games. It doesnt even need an open world, I would be happy with a hub based system cause them it can randomize maps. Give me like 10 base map types, give a lot of set pieces per map and then mix and match.
