Gonna hold my vote until ATOM is out. Besides, I didn't play many games on that list, but the ones I did were utter shit. And I wouldn't count BT's remaster as a 2018 release per se.

Lurking II : A Madness gets my vote, thanks for adding it to the poll.
Oh man, I had completely forgotten about this game. Thanks for bringing it back up to my attention.
How much time did it take you to beat it? Wanna tackle it, but think I might hold until I'm in my summer break to jump into if it's a game that's best enjoyed in longer sessions.

Well Pathfinder is getting a landslide victory. Also, good lord at the amount of butthurt and shitposting that has gone on in this thread. Is it always like this with polls here? :butthurt:

Pathfinder: Kingmaker. I've not finished it, cause the last act is way too boring, still, it's the best party RPG experience since Mask of the Betrayer.

I've enjoyed Kingdom Come aswell, but P:K is more of an RPG

Pathfinder, because it is a decent game with a decent story and the devs actually seem to give a fuck about their product. Is it the bestest shit ever? No but it is the best RPG we are gonna get any time soon.
[REDACTED] expansion should maybe release in the possible future and if it does, which it probably won't but if it by chance does, will be enough to hold over to 20[COLONY SHIP RELEASE DATE GOES HERE].

It was by far the worst year since the revival era begun, so it's no wonder that KCD, Glitchmaker and dumpsterfire collect all the votes. There literally isn't anything else worth mentioning.

Is this really worse than 17's Torment, D:OS 2, and ELEX or 16's Tyranny and uh....

14 and 15 were great years but now we're back to normal.

Only one game I even cared enough to play was 40k Mechanicus, which I guess you could spin as a "tacitcal jRPG" since it involves stats and unit progression, as well as some light C&C.
