28 - Now a bonafide classic, this game was hated by casual audiences upon its release for its art direction. we as a community know better now.

15 - The bears in this game were clearly the inspiration for the developer's next big open-world platformer on the N64. 
06 - While I do think #3 of the trilogy has better gameplay, the art direction, sound design, and score on this game are all better. 

28 Wind Waker?

15 Donkey Kong Country 3

6 Donkey Kong Country 2

Alright, I'm gonna try to get a bit more specific with these two, though still kinda doubling down on the same hints.

#5 - A game about a group of misfits getting together to steal treasure and ultimately save everyone from a greater evil.

#4 - Probably the game I've played the most this year, I've even streamed a lot of it.
Hint 2 - The streams were for speedruns.

5) Persona 5?

45 games guessed. 5 remain.

5) Released in the same year as Read Dead Redemption and has a main character who John Marston reminded me of

Hint 2: Only this guy is more of a space cowboy

4) I quite liked the whole trilogy, but this 3rd game went above and beyond

Hint 2: That did definitely not go unnoticed as this game sold more than the first 2 combined

3) The villain is still a bit sore after you MURDERED them

2) The remaster might have been a mess, but I've been playing this game on a regular basis for years and still do

1) A mission to save your world becomes a lot more complicated when you learn the cost

Okay, I'm done editing that post. Sorry for pinging you who knows how many times, UnderwaterFunktown.

#4 - Probably the game I've played the most this year, I've even streamed a lot of it.
Hint 2 - The streams were for speedruns.
Hint 3 - It's a Microsoft published game, but I first played it on a Nintendo platform. Definitely not where I do speedruns of it, though.

Cuphead

Cuphead

No.

Edit: the Switch doesn't seem like a bad place to do speedruns of Cuphead. It was a pretty decent port from what I remember.

The Switch version seems to be just as good as the others looking at what reviews say.

Ori and the Will of the Wisps! :D

And now I feel bad for giving it away.

Oh damn, you've got it ranked even higher than I have.
