Bloodborne is one of two exceptions to that. As for 2013: The Last of Us, Rayman Legends, Zelda: LBW, Pokemon XY, Mario 3D World, Metal Gear Rising, Phoenix Wright Dual Destinies, Sly 4, Tearaway, Saints Row 4. And that's just the stuff I liked more than anything from 2015.
Those are mostly good games but with all of them except Undertale, RotTR, and Splatoon I felt something was holding them back. Like ten years from now there will be very few games from 2015 I want to replay, especially compared to 2013 or 2007
I think it being a contender is a stretch though and I felt 2015 was a horribly mediocre year for games.
You know I actually do like The Witcher 3, I just think giving it GOTY is like a girl giving you anything other than a pity fuck
Let's just say my dreams involving Blake most resemble an Itchy and Scratchy cartoon
I rented it on XB1 and am surprised how well it works with a controller. Still plan on buying it Steam sale later for keyboard and mouse and it's good enough to replay, but I'm still glad it works on a console
That is shitty. A shame too because it's a great game bit no game is good enough that you should take getting exploited to play it.
Well marking is optional. If you don't like it then you can try to keep tabs where enemies move to without it while being more cautious.
Also in the chance you do play it, see if you can get a save file for beating the game on there. Doing that gives you a wealth of options like cel shading and an HUD-less mode.
The production values are top notch, probably the best in the industry. But I did run into quite a few technical issues and the pacing was far from perfect in a series where pacing is everything. Mechanically Uncharted has always been the jack of all trades so it needs good pacing to work which it didn't always have here. At its best, I agree, it was some of the most fun of the year. At its worst, it dragged on for too long for me to give it a pass. After all, I have to review the whole product, especially one relying so much on its story.
I wouldn't say I'm lukewarm on a series where I consider one entry to be one of the greatest games ever made and half of another to be near perfect. And if you pay attention to my wording, I said that I feel only fans of the series would enjoy it which I did. I came out satisfied and nothing more which is what a 3.5/5 perfectly describes in my mind.
I'm hoping they let someone remaster Lion King and Aladdin on Genesis personally
