For the past several months I've been kicking this around and decide whether or not I should bother with this list. I don't play quite as much as I used to, and in particular the last few years I've played less than ever. Writing, even inconsequential stuff, doesn't come quite as easy as it once did for some reason so that's made things even harder. Then this ridiculous pandemic happened and suddenly I've had more free time and started playing a lot more than I had in years, and it's jump started my interest in gaming again in a big way.

Still, the writing part hasn't quite clicked, but after a few false starts I decided to say 'fuck it' and just force it. If it sucks, so be it. Hell, 5 people at most are going to read it so really cares?

So what will the top games be? What will be number one? Will I finish my list before Vader finishes his Top 100?  To find out the answers to these questions and more STAY TUNED!!!!

Oh wow. I’m surprised with your number one pick. I enjoyed the game as well, probably not as much to put it at my number one of the 2010’s but well enoug. Glad you enjoyed it. I wouldn’t mind going back to it myself someday and playing through it again now that I got all the dlc for it.

Oh come on, you know better. Time spent playing is not directly in proportion to enjoyment or satisfaction.



MHW, and most of the series for that matter, is a steady well-paced enjoyable game. But the high moments are very far and few in between. There is also considerable grinding, which is fun and challenging, but does get stale after a while.  FFX delivered more fun and memorable moments in 50 hours and never overstayed it's welcome.

It's not about time being proportional to enjoyment. I'd have made much the same comment if the two picks had been reversed!

In any case, I really wanna check out FFXV, but feel I need to play XIII first for the redemption arc.
