I tried playing the first last year. Got 2 hours in and grew tired of it. The random encounters were too annoying.

Are you an r/games repost bot?

It appears that way

That was my joke, ya

Indie game of the year!

It’s a new game

SM2 over TotK is a joke.

Alan Wake 2 as GotY is correct though.

Man I was wondering why every single Aftermath article shows up on here.

I played about 3 hours of it and didn’t like it. Everyone talks about how great it is and how it’s a once in a lifetime game, but it just wasn’t that enjoyable to me. I might revisit it one day, but we’ll see.

TLDW?

Alan Wake 2, but TotK was so close. Spiderman 2 was disappointing.

I didn’t realize Star Ocean was out already. I really liked what I saw from the announcement in the NDirect. Shame to hear it doesn’t fix some of the outdated design of early RPGs. Guess I’ll check out some more reviews.

AWBW is awesome. I’ve been playing WarBits+ with my friend for over a year now (it is in Alpha/Beta stages). Check it out on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2338990/Warbits/

If it looks interesting to you, they have a Discord you can join to get access to the beta.

Dude RetroAchievements is awesome. I found out about it thanks to my MiyooMini and it changed the way I play retro games. I liked it so much an made an app for it for iOS lol
