For me it is a very close race between Breath of the Wild and Dark Souls. Not sure which one is better really. I also like them for very similar reasons. Both feel like they use old school sensibilities, design principles, and challenge. But they also take all of these things and put it into a modern looking 3D game.
I guess I can say that Breath of the Wild is the game of the year for all Nintendo systems of the past decade and Dark Souls is the game of the year for all Sony systems.
curl-6 bet me that PS5 + X|S sales would reach 56m before year end 2023 and he was right.
