Seems to be time to ping the lazybones that were there last year and didn't show up yet: @S.Peelman

I was afraid this would happen.

Anyway, I'm kind of torn. I've participated 12 times now, and my list has matured. It isn't going to be much different from the previous few years, if at all. Last year I tried a ranking generator, which was fun to do, but the end result was barely different from what I had come up with the year before.Should I do that again this year just so the difference can be even smaller? I also don't really feel like writing stories about these games, because I already mentioned every experience I had with them by now. Or to make fancy graphics like I did for a few years, because that just takes too much time. Maybe I should have AI do it for me.

On the other hand, why not just sign up and at least enter a list? Especially if mZuzek quits hosting after this year. What's one more year?

So I guess, "why not". @mZuzek, sign me up. I will however be on a holiday until 16 november so I won't be here for the start of it, and I'm unsure if I find the time to send a list before I leave next weekend.

KOTOR needs you, Peelman!

Glad you decided to in the end - the main thing is adding your list to the mix so that the overall site rankings end up being more representative than they would've been otherwise. Though AI images sounds like it could be fun.

It does, doesn’t it.

Well I’ll be there to do my part then.

Yeah I wrote that as a joke, but now that I have thought about it some it’s actually maybe a fun idea to try.

I think I’ll at least check what it comes up with this week. Not copywriting the idea though so you or anyone may do it if they feel like it.

I mean, it's not like AI cares about copyrights anyway.

Good point.



Thanks for the invite! I'm in!

Thanks for hosting again too, mZuzek. You always do an excellent job.

Since there's really no point in anyone trying to guess what's on my particular list ever...well lemme say something about that. My lists are in large part a byproduct of ADHD. That's the real reason they're so...what's the polite word to use here?...imaginative? I'm a curious, neurotic person who lacks focus. Anyway, since there's no point in anyone guessing what's on my list, I'll just spoil the main changes now, as otherwise few will even notice.

I'm actually adding several titles from this year to the list. Namely 1000xRESIST, Lorelei and the Laser Eyes, Animal Well, Senua's Saga (which will replace the original Hellblade on my list entirely), and Nine Sols. Yes, recency bias is probably a factor, but oh well, I'm human and biased. Conversely, I've also been bitten by the nostalgia bug this year and as a result a couple really old titles -- Final Fantasy VI and Chrono Trigger -- will be advancing dramatically on my list this year. And though they weren't far from it before anyway, I've decided to move both Undertale (my favorite RPG of all time) and the original Metroid Prime into the top 10 this year. The rest of the top 10 though remains unchanged and pretty stable. Freedom Planet 2 has also moved up to 13th place, as it's become my favorite 2D platforming game.
