(This is a difficult year to rank. I'm already leaving out games like Trails in the Sky the 3rd, Gravity Rush 2, Uncharted: The Lost Legacy and Breath of the Wild, all of which I love.)

I know what you mean about 2017! I'd have actually preferred to list more games for each year actually, but I felt like requesting more than five per year might be too unreasonable or overwhelming a task for many if not most, so I opted for a consistent rule of five per year.
Had I NOT gone with a consistent rule for the sake of there being any structure here, my list of favorite games from each year would've instead looked like this:
2016:
1) Diaries of Spaceport Janitor
2) Ittle Dew 2
3) That Dragon, Cancer
4) Pony Island
5) The Last Guardian
6) Inside

8) The Flame in the Flood
9) Uncharted 4: A Thief's End
10) VA11-Hall-A: Cyberpunk Bartender Action
11) Dishonored 2
12) One Night Stand
13) 1979 Revolution: Black Friday
14) Oxenfree
15) Hyper Light Drifter
16) Overwatch
17) A Little Lily Princess
18) Virginia
2017:
1) Butterfly Soup
2) What Remains of Edith Finch
3) Uncharted: The Lost Legacy
4) Night in the Woods
5) Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice

7) Dream Daddy
8) The Shrouded Isle
9) Tales of Berseria
10) Cosmic Star Heroine
11) Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus
12) Little Nightmares
13) Sonic Mania
14) Star Fox 2
15) Hollow Knight
16) Persona 5
17) Metroid: Samus Returns
18) A Hat in Time
19) Pyre
20) Horizon Zero Dawn
21) Super Mario Odyssey
22) The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
23) Life is Strange: Before the Storm
2018:
1) Celeste
2) Donut County
3) Return of the Obra Dinn

11) Deadeus
2020:
1) The Last of Us Part II
2) Spiritfarer
3) Hades
4) Sakuna: Of Rice and Ruin
5) ScourgeBringer
6) Streets of Rage 4
7) There Is No Game: Wrong Dimension
8) Mission: It's Complicated
9) Demon's Souls
10) Animal Crossing: New Horizons
11) Ghost of Tsushima

3) Oddworld: Soulstorm
4) The Medium
Honorable Mention: Kentucky Route Zero
That's not all my games from any of those years, it's just a list of the ones I replay or intend to. Crash 4 is excluded from this version of the 2021 list because I haven't replayed it and don't really plan to in the foreseeable future. Anyway, as you can see, this version of the list is a little unwieldy and thought it might get that way for other people too, so that's why I went for the rule of five.
