I know, but interactivity with link to various topics gives it different form of usefulness.Felipe's book is great, and this list isn't made to compete with that.

It's coming along nicely. I already exhausted every game I've played, so hopefully someone comes in and can be more specific with tags on the games. I can only get so far by reading multiple reviews/articles/watching gameplay/etc. for some tags to add.This thread is getting more and more amazing, it is informative and useful than felipepepe's RPG book.

All the Codex GOTY 2012 links lead to the Age of Incline 2016 vote. Was there even a GOTY vote in 2012? I thought they started a year or two later.
In the doc, there is the placements for 2012-2016. Sorted all together (age of Incline) and then sorted by year which which is what I use for GOTYAll the Codex GOTY 2012 links lead to the Age of Incline 2016 vote. Was there even a GOTY vote in 2012? I thought they started a year or two later.
Can you publish here the GOTY 2012 and 2013 lists you got that way?
Here is a link to database I have for all RPG's (up to 2013) + I sorted the GOTY for 2012-2015 in the proper order beause it isn't like that in the original doc (ex. DA:I is like 5th for 2014, but it's supposed to be last place).
The large list of all RPGs is ~85% correct, but MobyGames does have some wonky release dates so it's always good to double check those (+ some additions that aren't actually RPGs, release dates for console but not PC, Devs/Publishers for non PC platform, etc.).
