Games of 2021

What’s on everyone’s radar? I’m excited for Ghostwire and hoping God of War comes out. Besides that gaming looks like the pandemic finally hit good

I'm really curious about death loop. Big fan of dishonour and its sequels for the paranormal powers, and it looks like the same idea in a 1960's or 70's like aesthetic.

Outriders. its had a lot of trash talked on it but the gameplay is decent snd i like the story so far. the main character is a breath of fresh air.
just need to find people to play with.

It Takes Two (I love actual co-op games where you play together, not against), Kena: Bridge of Spirits, Solar Ash. There's a few others but those are the big ones for me.

 

[Revelations]

Let's see...

Shin Megami Tensei V (Big fan of the series and it being on a console after being mostly on the 3DS for the last decade is really enticing to me)
Hollow Knight: Silksong (The first game is easily one of my favorite metroidvanias and the 2nd is looking even better)
Nier Replicant ver.1.22474487139... (The original Nier is also one of my favorite games, so this remaster/slight remake is very enticing)
Rune Factory V (Farming simulator+dungeon crawling is a surefire hit for me, always has been with the series)
Scarlet Nexus (Looks like a fun action RPG)
Horizon Forbidden West (I got the first game for $20 with the DLC. Was a fun enough open world game, I hope the sequel improves on it!)
Total War: Warhammer III (Have 400ish hours between the first two games, so really excited for this one also O G R E B O Y S)

I have to admit, I'm curious about Cyberpunk 2077. I want to find out more about that game. It sounds really good.

Cyberpunk treated me well, for the most part, though it certainly was painful for a while on PS4 base. If you can handle some bugginess then it's a pretty good buy I'd argue. Especially if you can get it on sale somewhere. If nothing else the story I thought was pretty solid and well done making it worth at least one playthrough.

I'm aiming at Deathloop as my next big game. Guilty Gear Strive, however, has my undivided attention. I've been waiting for a fighting game to throw myself into and the online for it, from the most recent beta, made me more excited than ever. Also it's a gorgeous game so that helps.

I'm digging Outriders so far too. Server issues aside it scratches the same itch as Destiny without making me feel like I need to grind and pay for eternity (which is fine because I dedicated a lot of time to D1 so I'm good on that). Now if I could just get a legendary that isn't a Light Machinegun I'd be happy...

Been digging Valheim, game is amazing and in beta atm so I think it still counts.

Really excited to get Mount and Blade II Bannerlord! I love Warband, and Bannerlord looks like it's pretty much solved all my problems with Warband.

I'm also looking to get Children of Morta, which is a cute little indie roguelike hack and slash about a family of adventurers.
