    I really like this format to talk about games from the last year. It really helps show off unique games I might have missed like Chained Echoes. If I had to give out one it would be the most unique award to Chants of Sennaar. It's a puzzle game where you play as a traveler that has to use contextual clues to learn the languages of the different people.

    Fire Emblem Engage is easily my GOTY. It's everything I love about Fire Emblem and more, great gameplay, great music, great visuals and a super colorful and fun cast to make me want to replay the game over and over again so I can use them all with different classes and see all their supports.

    Daniel successfully pulls off a great awards show that's much better than the Game Awards!

  • @GentlemanGamer94
    @GentlemanGamer94 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +16

    As others are saying, this Award Show format rocks. 🙂 It allows you to showcase games that do certain things super well, and highlight titles which might not otherwise be part of a GOTY discussion. Games like Suika, which looks adorable and fun as all heck!

  • @ZoRowArk3
    @ZoRowArk3 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +9

    Really liked this different spin on the video :D
    And thank you for talking about Genshin Impact, the Fontaine Arc was seriously incredible so far, and these Characters grew so dear to me in just a few patches. It's really the best Arc of the Game so far, and it just seems to get better with every new region. Really excited for the future at this point~

    Man if FE Engage had good writing it would easily be my favourite game in the whole series... For now it's just comfortably in my top 5

  • @Daniee78
    @Daniee78 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +10

    Engage is my most played game of the year. I think the gameplay is absolutely brilliant. While I live the simplicity of older titles, it's also very fun and satisfying to make use of this game's huge toolbox and creative use of the Emblems to deal with the large amount of enemies it throws at you. As someone who likes to play these games multiple times and try out different strategies, it's kind of a dream and has only gotten better the more I've played it.

    • @GentlemanGamer94
      @GentlemanGamer94 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I look forward to one day replaying Engage myself 🙂 I put in well over 100 hours into it, the gameplay was just so fun and addicting, and I found the world and characters vibrant and charming.

  • @TaliesinMyrddin
    @TaliesinMyrddin 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    I think I prefer this format to the game of the year videos, actually. I may not agree that TotK is game of the year worthy (from a critical perspective, individual GotY is fair game), but I can certainly agree its new mechanics are impressive and ambitious.

    • @Oscargoo
      @Oscargoo 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Fully agree with you one this, was getting a little annoying watch TOTK sweep and be treated like obvious pick when I have so many issues with it. But focusing on just the ultra hand/crafting primarily lets me more easily appreciate some of the good things about the game

  • @shadowcat7795
    @shadowcat7795 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

  • @EvilLucario
    @EvilLucario 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    The one hilarious thing about Metroid Prime Remastered that no one has ever brought up is how it now has an option for Federation Force's default control scheme with the Hybrid controls, because FF played like the GameCube but you could enable gyro for free aiming. It's that good, they allowed you to tap into FF's controls if you're somehow only used to that.

    • @rhettmitchell
      @rhettmitchell 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

  • @SomniRespiratoryFlux
    @SomniRespiratoryFlux 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    You're really selling me on Chained Echoes, when you described the Overdrive mechanic I was genuinely mad I hadn't thought of something like that myself. Such an interesting idea to keep you from just spamming one attack to win... Though I can see pairing up an increase and decrease attack and alternating to stay in green as a strategy, that still sounds like a satisfying system.

  • @mikeyboombox
    @mikeyboombox 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Absolutely love the format. You are the man Daniel, looking forward to more of yours and the rest of the crews videos in the new year.

  • @Kazzujin
    @Kazzujin 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I love this idea and format. If only beacause everyone else was oing the same old GOTY bit and they all put TOTK at number one and felt like i didnt need to watch the whole thing. this is good content. Thanks Daniel

  • @blazestar2590
    @blazestar2590 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

    3H is in my top 3 FE games and is just one of my favorite games in general, so I was initially a little disappointed when I saw Engage would be going in a different direction. But I'm honestly glad that it did. The story may be a hot mess, but damn if it doesn't have the most fun game play in the series. And even the characters, while lacking in depth, I still found to be likeable and endearing. Engage scratches a very different itch compared to 3H and both games can co exist with each other.

    • @rhettmitchell
      @rhettmitchell 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Exactly!! If we can have the pros of 3H’s story/characters/lore, Engage’s gameplay, fidelity, and animations, and Shadows of Valentia’s gorgeous artstyle and character designs, I think that’ll be the perfect FE game

    Hey Daniel, if Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door remake is your most anticipated game next year, maybe you'd be interested in Born of Bread? It's heavily inspired by that game, and is super adorable and charming, and funny to boot! It has some bugs to iron out, though, especially on consoles, but it's definitely got a lot of heart!

  • @tzovlask
    @tzovlask 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    really enjoyed this format! i would like to provide my picks for your categories! Just a note, I am picking from the heart and do not care how obvious my choices may be. I am not trying to be alternative in any way :)
    Best Remake/Remaster - I cannot disagree with you here so I wont! Loved Metroid Prime Rematered! Shout out to Dead Space and Resi 4. And I know that it wasnt really a remaster, I enjoyed the re-release of Red Dead Redemption on the Switch. Just WOW!
    Best Immersive Feel - Alan Wake 2. While I was playing as Saga, I almost forgot I was playing Alan Wake. I was very compelled with the narrative, setting pacing, visuals, sound and just about everything! Shout out to Spiderman and the wingsuit! The feeling of speed was a great improvement! Also shout out to Coccon, so simple yet complex. What an experience! Thank you gamepass!
    Best DLC - Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty. Lets be honest here, this DLC was really about a re-do of the whole game. It is an expensive DLC, but it is worth it because sometimes it is worth paying for quality experiences. CD PR have redeemed themselves in my eyes. Shout out to Dead Cells; Return to Castlevania and Resi 4 Seperate Ways!
    Best of Late 2022 - I dont really have an entry here, I did get my Witcher 3 upgreaded to PS5 for free and loved playing through that again
    Best Returning Series - Street Fighter 6! I love everything that did with this game! So much better than SF5! Love that little single player mode where I created my fighter and had bouts with NPC's! Felt almost Yakuza like except that I was the baddie haha
    Most Addicting - Bomb Rush Cyberfunk. I was so happy this game came out, it brought back that arcade like grindy tricksy cool rad gameplay from jet set radio. I even love that graphics style. Great great fun!
    Best Sprite Art - I actually will agree that Sea of Stars is where it's at, but what about that beautiful little remake Star Ocean Second Story R and the impaccable Octopath Traveller 2? I have to agree, this art style has a place in gaming!
    Best Story - Bulders Gate 3. Easy winner in my opinion of 2 of your categories. Making your own story and the whole meaningful choices schtik, was not really accomplished until this game was made and blew eveyryones mind.
    Most Controversial - Forspoken. I know, just hear me out. I know that the majority of people hate this game and its character, but I am unsure if it is because of the memes or not! I actually enjoyed this game MORE than FF15 and think it did magic better than Hogwarts Legacy (which is criminally under appreciated btw). The art is great, really enjoyed the boss fights. LOVE the traversal! And I like Frey, and like that she isnt this perfect pretty girl. You can tell I am passionate about this game. It is my gem of 2023!!
    Most Ambitious - Zelda TOTK! Yes I completely agree. Pokemon Scarlet and Violet cannot run on the Switch, but somehow Zelda can.. This game tbf, woulld be an ambitious title on any system, but the fact that it works on the switch and even boots up is unbelievable! Shout out to Larian Studios that blew the minds of every AAA developer to the point they felt compelled to go online and make excuses about their inadequacy!
    Most Anticipated - Final Fantasy Rebirth. OMG I cannot wait to return to this epic story! FF7R is one of my all time fav games ever!
    ADD CATEGORY - MOST OVERLOOKED GAME - Remnant 2! This game is awesome, huge improvement from the first game which is pretty good, but this is glorious! People really do not talk about this one much which makes me a sad gangsta panda...

  • @jmx999
    @jmx999 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Was hoping the sprite art section would have mentioned cassette beasts. Something about making a full cast of collectable creatures with as much personality as they display while also having a fusion form for every possible combination really impressed me this year. Shame none of you mentioned it in your yearly favourites, was a personal favourite in this stacked year

    I'm genuinely pleasantly surprised you mentioned Suika Game! I downloaded the game during the recent game trial on NSO and I had the urge to play the game every chance I had! I achieved my best score early on in the trial and I constantly wanted to go back and try to beat it. But I often screw myself stacking the bigger fruit on top of the smaller fruit wondering how I'm ever going to get them to touch (which often never happened lol)! I'm too much of a cheapskate to buy it now but maybe there will be a sale or maybe I'll just bite the bullet at some point 😂

  • @jaretco6423
    @jaretco6423 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Metroid Prime Remastered definitely deserves to be the best remake/remastered category. But Kirby: Return to Dreamland Deluxe & Super Mario RPG should also get an honorable mentioned.
    Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door remake is gonna be getting that category next year whenever that game comes out and you bet I'm looking forward to it

Pikmin, Pikmin 3 Deluxe and Pikmin Bloom it didn't really feel as though the series was dormant, even if it has been a while since the last fully new "mainline" game

  • @spamoman
    @spamoman 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Three Houses and Engage were both fantastic games for totally different reasons, so I get why people were disappointed by it, but also I thought trimming the fat that was the between-mission BS was a great move, and the gameplay felt much more ENGAGE-ing. : P
    I think the story and characters were much stronger in 3H, but for what it was, I think Engage did a decent job balancing unique new characters and fanservice-y returning characters.

    To be honest, I feel like a lot of the criticisms raised against Engage were more that it failed in what it was trying to do outside of gameplay. The writing was dull to the point of not caring, the character designs feel like Genshin Impact characters trying to audition for the Hololive roster (something that’s even more glaring compared to the past protagonist that are in the game), & the hub world was poorly executed to the point where I would’ve preferred them to just not have the Somniel. It never had to be just more of Three Houses, & games like SoV prove that you can execute a simple story well. Engage simply failed to do that.
    Of course, if you just want some good-ass strategy, go ahead & pick up Engage. Just……skip all the cutscenes.

    • @diabeticman2194
      @diabeticman2194 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +2
