Community RPG Codex 2023 GOTY - POLL IS CLOSED!

Tags: GOTY 2023

EDIT: Poll is done, results are here: https://rpgcodex.net/content.php?id=12309

And here we are again, voting time!

The voting for the RPG Codex's 2023 GOTY poll is now open - VOTE HERE: https://rpgcodex.net/goty_vote.php

We're doing Twiglard's Codex-only poll again, so you can only vote when logged in.

Every year the list gets a bit longer, time to test that scroll wheel. Remember: more than just deciding the GOTY, the goal here is to help us parse all these new games and help find some hidden gems.

The poll will run for a week until next Thursday, I don't know the exact hour since Twiglard has to close it. And, to avoid alt spam, only pre-2024 accounts can vote.

Cheers!

I wonder if Forspoken will be GOTY .

 

[Rincewind]

Well, haven't played any new game in 2023, so that disqualifies me right away.

Neither did I, but I still voted in 5 or 6 games I have played.

This is how we know you're not Polish.

 

[Modron]

Done but I forgot to make at least one troll vote so I may have to revisit it.

 

[agris]

Resisted the urge to rate bg3 a 1 despite not playing it, if for no other reason than to deny it one more “played it” credit it in the bayesian algo

For people rating "what?": games released years ago on consoles were released last year on PC.

 

[Rincewind]

Well, I have no time for that with all the dev work. Plus I'd much rather work through the many hundreds of titles from the 80s/90s catalogue. Those could last me decades without even touching the post-2000 stuff.

FUCK

YOU

 

[Gregz]

So many titles, and so much garbage.

 

[AlwaysBrotoMen]

Looks like I can revisit the poll and revote again.

Kind reminder that "RPG historian" felipecuck wimpered like a puppy after Grimoire: Heralds of the Winged Exemplar ripped him two new assholes

 

[Russia is over. The end.]

Saw Fallout Sonora Dayglow in the list. Didn't know it existed. Is it good? How much replayability does it add to Sonora?

So many titles, and so much garbage.

At least its not public anymore, so afterwards we can say with certainty that Codex is becoming like Reddit/rpg

Cohesion cried about "muh accessibility" and UI (in a retro blobber from 1993)

 

[Viata]

Also about late part being unbalanced, which was why for a while Cleve's signature was "muh balinse" or something like that.

 

[luj1]

Imbalance is the lifeblood of games. Tell that to Soyer who still doesn't get it

 

[Late Bloomer]

Why yes, I voted all JRPG's and their ilk a 5, how could you tell?

 

[Taka-Haradin puolipeikko]

I see that Pawsecuted was omitted.
Not that it's going to win anything. (I would rate it 3)

 

[Cheesedragon117]

Not only did nothing worth playing come out last year aside from Armored Core 6 and Lies of P, if anything else did, I wouldn't have been able to run it on my PC, nor get it for PS5.

All of my friends think I'm crazy for saying 2023 was an awful year for gaming. But I truly think it was. Starfield and Baldur's Gate 3 were far more than just bad, they should be taken as signs of Revelation.

Because the ability to produce anything resembling a playable game has gone extinct outside of Asia.

 

[Feyd Rautha]

Only game I played was Space Wreck and I didn't even complete it. I decided to wait for some future patches.

 

[flushfire]

I feel old looking at the list. Only recognize like 13 or so titles because of benchmarking and few actually played. Chose Colony Ship as the best from the few I liked enough to replay, the others being Heads Will Roll: Reforged & Front Mission 1st Remake.
