Games Played in 2023 Ranked
I guess Ill rank em as I go. Dont take the specific rankings too seriously, especially those at the top but not in the top 3 and those at the bottom, theyre pretty interchangeable and I could change my mind retroactively
165 Games
Cool but utterly draining
Cool little historical sewing sim
For all my gripes I still enjoy this game too much to put it any lower
The First 15/20 hours of this game would be on my top3 of the year, regrettably the game continues past this point
Whats the VN equivalent of page turner? Dialogue Box Clicker?
Great stuff
Its alright but so grindy and padded, I just cannot be assed
Its the 1st of February and this might already be my GOTY
Charming and funny, but gets old real fast and this is a long ass game. 10 hours was enough for me, thanks
Look, I'll probably play it again at some point, cause I quite liked the first few hours I played, but its so fucking buggy man. Like my ass got trapped at the explosion on the warehouse mission cause a door just wouldnt let me go through even though it was open? There was no way through, it showed a locked icon but the door was open and there were npcs shooting at me. Idk that just really soured me, and I didnt want to start that generally annoying mission all over again
Banger game, an accessible take on the rhythm + action hybrid
A game too good for its own...good
Pretty cool game, reminds me of Deus Ex, unfortunately its strong first impression kind of dribbles away into slightly uninteresting stuff, it makes its most potent statements in the first hour.
might try again sometime, I think Im just too stupid for this game, it made me sad very quickly.
Massively disappointing given the prologue
Replay, originally played the base edition. I dont quite like the farewell edition as much, but its still great
Outstayed its welcome
Lovely
Heartbreaking
Its pretty good, but padded and didnt really strike much of a chord with me personally
Replay. Every time I play demon souls I love it and hate it even more than last time
Played it cause Jsawyer cited as the main inspiration for Pentiment but man I do not vibe with this at all. Unlikeable protagonist, awful dialogue and If I wanted to experience what it was like to be a fuckup returning home after dropping out to a town full of people whom I despise but cannot escape from, well the punchline is that that is already my life!
Cute
It was cool, a reverse detective game
Idk man in theory I like it but in practice I find the combat kinda annoying
Thought it would be a shitpost but its surprisingly sincere. I can't really be mad
Cool shmup
An interesting evolution of Cosmo D, slightly infuriating at times but funny and cool
Golden Boy, Born To Love and Live For Joy, I'm a Golden Boy
Pretty good adv game, even if it falls off a bit
Replay. A stylish open world mystery
Kicks Ass
Pretty cool but jesus christ if I am required to wall jump one more time I will uninstall the game when it comes out
So far my favourite pentiment inspiration game. A cool story about a found family which combines mundane interpersonal drama with supernatural magic stuff
Really cool existential beat em up, very bold design decisions, which is to say 50/50 on whether or not youll enjoy or despise this game
Great character focused farm sim
Really enjoyed it, very clever
Quite like these Bitsy games. I like how even though the map loops, the yachts are on the "higher" area doing fine and the struggling people are on the "lower" area
I didnt rate this, and I kinda feel bad even ranking it, but I guess Ill put it here near the top
Yeah, trash that record store!
Normalize games with a cool core mechanic being over and done with in an hour or two
Pretty cool, but kind of a mixed bag
Lovely narrative adventure game about helping out at a geriatric wing of a hospital. The mundaneity, humanity and independence of these characters from the player are wonderful to see
Where the hell do I even rank this? I liked it I guess but didnt rate it cause why
Good vibes
It might not work for you, but by god it worked for me
Burns brighter but shorter than most pokemon games. 12 hours and I was done
Couldnt stick the landing unfortunately
wonderful climbing sim
almost feel this game, but I guess not quite enough
Kino platformer/run and gun
worst game with lung in the title Ive played
I love Imperialism!
the definition of mid
Charming and cozy
Wooden acting, overexplains everything
As we say in Spain : "pasó sin pena ni gloria"
More like Demon Turd: Toilet Splash ha gottem
Rough in places, but overall a smart engaging minimalistic sim.
Again feels odd ranking this. It was a cool experiment
Like when I watched Eraserhead : How boring for such a weird thing
Lovely, charming, funny and short
Kind of cool
Bleh
I feel, conflicted about it
Its okay, but its length and almost hobbesian view of humanity just didnt sit right for me. It just feels closer to a zombie apocalypse and human suffering for its own sake rather than how wars of this kind actually go. idk
Middling
Pretty cool VN about a taxi driver in Chapinero, Bogotá
Interactive Fiction piece about fictional disease in industrial environment
A charming, energetic adventure game adaptation of the boris vian novel of the same name
Im being pretty generous here. Beyond being based and the sheer funny novelty of "palestinian max payne" the original is undercooked and the remake is basically in early access. Thankfully you get both bundled into one for the same price but just bear in mind its quite rough around the edges. Fun though
I liked Ringo a lot better
Wow we are cool and edgy! Strikes cause capitalism amirite?! Shitty controls and tries way too hard to be umurangi.
Idk, felt flat to me
Just Boring honestly
whatever
Really cool 0 tutorialisation roguelike
This is absolutely insanely ambitious for Atari 2600 and disproves my intuition that no 2600 would be all that complex to require a guide. Insane. Also dope cover art
Idk maybe I am dumb but after a couple halos I just felt kinda frustrated by the process of building new ones
Its good but man does the difficulty spike
Alas, most of this game's innovations were really taken from German Expressionist game design
ye
Great first impression, shame about the rest of the game
He just like me fr
An okay enough adventure game, a shame it didnt live up to its potential
That sure is another purate warriors game!
Ok I guess
Lovely Atmospheric Exploration game/survival sim about the grieving process
Pretty Cool 3D Platformer, if you like the grinding sections in 3D sonic games this is probably the game for you. Short and cheap
Adventure Game/Walk Sim about a cult, gripping
Trite, forced and manipulative
Its a comedy game that didnt make me laugh
Sacrificing gameplay for story is all very well until your story is told through the lens of an unlikeable character and the bafflingly written dog companion.
Its fine... Basically an adventure game/vn set in a sort of choose your own adventure creation myth underwater. Its alright
More like that which sucked balls
At odds with itself
If my adhd meds' dosage hadn't lost their effect, I might have had enough patience to endure this bullshit. Skill issue Im sure, but I just dont care
Lovely medical/epidemiological detective game which is tragically riddled with bugs
