I´m talking about the 3 honorable mentions he says at the end of the video (Splatoon, The Witcher 3, Xenoblade X), I can understand if it was left out on a top 20 but this is a top 6, those 3 are worth to mention.

Oh yeah those could have done with being mentioned as well.

Love Jims vids and watching a few of his "squirty" plays. His choice in giving awards to 5 games instead of just one is a nice way to go about it, everyone wins int he end.

Can't wait to see his 5 worst though.

 


His worst 5 prediction: 

The order 1886, 

Battlefront,  

Devil's Third,  

Amiibo Festival,  

Random PC Game. 

 

What do you think? 

He liked Battlefront, so I don't think it would be on his "worst game" list, even if he despised the bussiness decisions behind it (who can't blame him?). So maybe just because of that, he could mention it. But, he actually plays a lot of shit games (Steam ones, very bad horror games, a lot xDDD) so who knows? 

Devil's Third is a given though. I adored his sentence about it:

"It’s just some shooting and slashing, clumsily stitched together and presented with all the class and style of Donald Trump’s flaccid penis."

 

And yet devil's third has become an extremely sought after treasure.  I just don't get this industry sometimes.  

 

@lawlight he just judges games on their merits.  If it deserves praise I gets it indie or not.  And I see what you're getting at.  So let's just be clear he is a massive critic of a huge number of the shovelware type indies the pc is plagued with.  He only rewards the good ones and they're quite a few good ones!

....it one guy, it's not like there is a team getting into fights over this list. The list is so subjective it means little more than me posting my goty here In this reply. Also he seems to be a bit of  hipster I find, usually pushing the indies as some sort of statement on how much of a hipster. ..um, in depth gamer he is. 

So he's just the average hipster you hate then?.

Are indies even worth a damn these days, I mean they are just indie games after all.

Maybe if you weren't so busy looking down on everybody you'd see that joke flying over your head.

Er, no, he's just one guy I dislike for his hipsterish opinions which he tries to push as objective views for his fans. It should not be about being cool and more about being true to his viewership. That's why I dislike him.

 

And you said it, not me. I couldn't tell the difference between an indy title these days and a small game by a big studio passed off as an indy title. True small team indies (and it sucks that I need to specify from a small team) are being over shadowed by these big studios who release child of light or whatever else. Rocket league is one success story.

Are we talking his general attitude and the way he talks to others?, because outside of the shows he does he's different, he's not always "thank god for me" and even then most of the points he throws out and issues with the industry are objectively right, the practices some pull over us as being bad is exactly what they are, I don't get how that makes him a hipster or someone to dislike, he wactually wants change brougt about in a big way and wants most of the big ehads to be brought kicking and screaming to the reality we want.

The way you talk about indie's as if they don't matter is what I was questioning, indie games are usually from "independent devs", if it's backed with millions from a corp or publisher then chances are it's not a proper indie game, Minecraft started out as indie along with the devs but now they made it big and then were bought by MS so they aren't indie no more, the game I'd think still is one since that's how it came about.

The devs behind RL also made the same concept of a game back in 2008 on a Sony system as well.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supersonic_Acrobatic_Rocket-Powered_Battle-Cars (same devs, same type of game and sport).
