Incline GOTY 2023 Games List discussion

[Viata]

I find it funny we have a thread for lost and forgotten games (except for us), but at the same time we only include games that have more than 50 reviews in the goty list.

A problem with past polls was that there were too many junk entries nobody cared about. If there's no thread full of discussion for it here, there's no sense including it.

 

[Abu Antar]

Gray Zone is missing in the list.
Even though it's too obscure even for the Codex,
and one migth even ask if it's RPG enough to be listed,
but if Mimimi's Gambit: Divercity Crew is there, so should be the Gray Zone.


Disclaimer: Not that I was going to vote for that shit anyway.

That's a 2022 game, though.

 

[Anthedon]

I only played two games on that list, damn.

We just know that, this year, the codex will Bear witness to a GOTY pick even worse than DA:O.

You could make a CRPG about raping little children and most Codexers would vote it GOTY "because it has good mechanics" and great graphics.

not a good comparison since BG3 has neither of those things , degeneracy is the main selling point the rest is cope

 

[Goldschmidt]

Although I was looking forward to it, I simply can't cast a single vote as I played none of these games on the list.

All the games in that list that I have played were last played more than 5 years ago. KEK

Go play Caves of Lore and Colony Ship

 

[IHaveHugeNick]

Honestly, Colonoscopy and RogueTinder should be on the next year list.

That's why I put the "" there. As to graphics, they are decent graphics for a non-action, non-FPP/TPP CRPG. And you can set how big you character's dick is. That's some detail! Not near the balls of horses changing size in RDD2 but close.

Wargroove 2 isn't an RPG

Wargroove 2 isn't an RPG

Half the list isn't, and that's nothing new, take a look at every GOTY vote and the stuff that makes it in

 

[Viata]

After Disco, wasting time saying X is or not rpg means nothing.

 

[IHaveHugeNick]

It would no longer feel like a proper Codex GOTY without pepe sneaking some p*dophile anime porn on the list.

 

[lukaszek]

Honestly, Colonoscopy and RogueTinder should be on the next year list.

already setting colonoscopy to lose? Could have picked easier contender...

 

[Nelka]

I'm looking for people, that are willing to troll vote Forspoken to RPG CODEX GOTY 2023, help the cause...

 

[Modron]

Sorry my troll vote for black fantasy magic chick game is going to Atlas Fallen.

Go watch GTO, Nelka.

We stopped after the second episode. Time to play some Like a Dragon™: Infinite Wealth. I can't lose all my valuable time on boys, c'mon...

 

[Nortar]

Gray Zone is missing in the list.

That's a 2022 game, though.

Bah, you're right.
But upon closer look, it was released just 2 weeks before 2023, so definitely had not enough time compete with 2022 games.
It has not enough of quality anything to compete in 2023 either, but at least it won't fade into complete obscurity.

Different eras. SteamDB gives me 3,033 games with the "RPG" tag released on Steam in 2023. That's probably more than we had from 1975 to 2014, even if you include all the every Ultima clone shared on BBS that only 5 people played.

Simply put, I don't think we'll have a "lost and forgotten" thread in 20 years where people discuss games like Mystery at Morgoth... even if that game would probably rank in the Top 10 of the 2008 Codex GOTY.

How many of those "rpgs" also have a "nsfw" tag?

The game looks fine, if encounter design is good, then the game may be good.

JarlFrank has the game. Did you play it, Jarl? If so, was it good?
