25 Best Video Games of 2015 (The Guardian)

[JRPGfan]

decent list actually.

 

Honorable mentions – the games that just missed out

Cibele: Nina Freeman’s autobiographical tale has interesting things to say about love and relationships in the era of online gaming.

Volume: Robin Hood meets Metal Gear Solid in this clever minimalist stealth puzzler, which will soon be getting an outing on PlayStation VR.

Yoshi’s Woolly World: Another beautiful handicraft adventure, following on from the luscious Kirby’s Epic Yarn.

Star Wars Battlefront: Limited in terms of depth and progression, but EA Dice perfectly captures the look, feel and atmosphere of the movies.

Pillars of Eternity: Obsidian Entertainment’s spiritual successor to classic action RPGs Baldur’s Gate and Icewind Dale is as deep, engaging and well-written as fans demanded.

^ Pillars of eternity even got a mention. I loved Pillars of eternity, and feel like it should have made it top25, but even that it got a mention is fine enough.

This list is alot better than most of those best of year lists you normally see.
