They are not in any order, because when games are great trying to nitpick them into slots over minor subjective nonsense is a waste of time. Also as usual, these are games I played in 2014, they might not have come out in 2014, but I don't give much of a shit about that. They're what I played in 2014 that I thought were great.
This War of Mine- This game is incredible, and I am so happy I live in a world where it was made. It's a good game mechanically, it's a good game in its message or whatever. It has consequences for being a dick. Like, a lot of games present being a dick vs being moral as something of a player choice (as in, the only difference is you THE PLAYER must make a MORAL CHOICE that means nothing to gameplay), but in this game it has mechanical consequences, your survivors get depressed if you are a dick and you have to deal with it.
Valiant Hearts- Ubisoft doesn't fuck up for once. An easy puzzle game about WW1. I remember a long time ago there was a person on the Codex who was adamant that there could not possibly ever be a good game about WW1. He was smart in some respects but a moron in general. The soundtrack is okay, but honestly if you listen to it outside of context it's very simple. I'll admit to getting invested in it enough that the ending gave me some watery eyes.
Wolfenstein New Order- Very simple game, yet very fun. Good job on achieving that, that's like the unicorn of modern shooters. It's most fun if you try to play a stealth run.
Walking Dead Season 2- Well, yeah.
Stanley Parable (I played it in 2014, it came out in the last month of 2013, it counts): Bonus achievement: My favorite game I played this year. You know I am currently re-reading Terry Pratchett novels, and the voice in my head is this narrator. I fucking hate Dota and never play it any more, but I still bought the Stanley Parable announcer packs just in case I ever in the future play the game again). I can't really express intelligently how I feel about this game, I have found all the endings, but once every 2 evenings I find myself wanting to play it again. I love it.
Transistor (It wasn't as good as bastion, but it was still pretty neat)
Metal Gear Rising: Revengance (came out in 2013, but I played it in 2014)- Possibly the best video game ever created on so many different levels, it's brilliant. Two tracks from the soundtrack got up for grammies, but grammies don't matter. They put a lot of effort into them and they bore fruit. Awesome game, awesome soundtrack.
So, I'm at 7, 2 of which are from 2013. I'm looking on my Steam games list and my GoG account for ideas.
Oh. I know.
Bayonetta 2. I know for a fact that if I had a Wii U and played this game I would love it. I have not played it myself, just watched streams and youtube, but we can derple the requirements so that it fits in right? I kind of want to buy a Wii U and a TV to play the Wii U on just for this game, and the promise of a metroid game in the future.
Worst Game of 2014:
Planetary Annihilation- Fuck these people. This is the one time I succumbed to early access beta access shit eating access or whatever. And it's a fucking awful game. God damnit. I wish so hard it was good, because I assume like most people I wanted a total annihilation successor. They failed. It's bad in so many ways. God damnit
Dota 2- Why have I been playing this game for almost a decade now. It's never been fun. I never have fun when I play it. I am doing okay now, I play maybe 1 game a month. Soon I will be free. It's just my real life friends play it, and so I play it to hang out with them on Skype. Even then, I wish we did something else. We played Left 4 Dead 2 once, and I had a ton of fun, though apparently everyone else thought it was too hard. Christ.
Not Included Specifically:
Wasteland 2- A game that made me at almost every point want to go back and play Fallout 1 because it did the same thing so much better. Disappointing.
Tell me if I missed something important that is not a console game, I'm eager, sir, eager, to consume more good things.
