The top 11 games of 2017 so far are: 11. Persona 5 10. Tekk

>>383166213

No because Horizon Zero fun is worse than Zelda by far.

>>383166213
Prey should be switched Resi 7, move Tekken to where Injustice 2 is and knock Injustice off the list.
Other than those, yeah it's good.

>In 10 years, people will still be talking about innovative things that 'Horizon Zero Dawn' does. They will still be talking about how gorgeous it is, how smart and funny its main character is, how it succeeded commercially in the shadow of a new Nintendo console and a new 'Legend of Zelda' game.

>While playing games, I often experience a small handful of emotions: frustration, accomplishment, fear. While playing 'Horizon Zero Dawn,' that list expanded dramatically -- outside of delighting in the graceful, smart gameplay systems that underlie the game's narrative focus, I often laughed out loud at Aloy's smart quips (she's the antagonist you see above). I found myself endlessly curious about the surprisingly deep lore of the game's world, its people and religions, and the main character's story arc. Perhaps most important of all, I actually cared about the main character, believed her motivations, and wanted her to succeed.

>'Horizon Zero Dawn' is a magnificent accomplishment of a game that stands out among standouts. And I didn't even mention the giant metal dinosaurs.

Holy SHIT they are shilling this game so fucking hard it is ridiculous. I picked it up, it's not that fucking good.

it will win goty on some shitty feminist websites like kotaku, poligon or whatever is the one in the OP.
But it has no chance in actual sites that go over many journalists and find the overall "best". Zelda or Mario are much more likely to win those.

So, either a massive SJW wrote this list, or a massive Sony shill.

And I say this as someone who owns a PS4 and got Horizon. I played for a few days before realizing just how boring and uninspired in terms of mechanics the game is.

It's essentially you're typical open world action game. It doesn't really do anything to set itself apart because ROBUTTS and female with manjaw for main character.

Other than that, I guess it's pretty looking, but that's really the only praise I have for it. Everything else is just generic or copied wholesale from other games.

Objectively right. Horizon Zero Dawn was a dud. It had a huge hype and vanished pretty much entirely in short order because it did not deliver. It's story was shit and ideologically driven, the gameplay was bland, etc. It was mediocre at best.

HZD actually deserves that spot. It caught hate on /v/ due to being an exclusive and because this crowd is triggered by female leads.

Once you play the game from an objective point of view, you realize it is the most visually stunning, original, open world title released in a long long time. It was extremely polished, had a compelling story, fantastic gameplay, and a totally unique setting.

The ONLY complaints /v/ could come up with was 'it panders to SJWs' (bullshit btw) and a few character animations were sub par. It is the best game we have seen this year.

So you admit, outside of the containment side for lunatics, nobody gives a shit about the game. Because it was a worse Skyrim/Far Cry Primal in the future that massively suffered from it's obnoxious characters and atrocious story?

>>383168556
>Couldn't afford Zelda

To me, it seems like most people defend BotW because they forked ~360 dollars to play a mediocre game. It's like Stockholm Syndrome. After being held captive by it, they've fallen in love with it.

There are zero points in your post. Just some obnoxious opinions. If you want to bring an actual point including all that entails and have people tear it apart, feel free to do so. So far you are making wild claims and stating opinions with nothing to back them up, which makes debunking them rather pointless as you can always just move the goal post or go "NOOOOOO!". Which I am certain you are wholly aware of.

The game was a worse Far Cry Primal in the future/Skyrim with robots with an tacked on agenda. Outside of your tumblr crowd, nobody gave a shit within days of the release. If you guys weren't constantly bringing it up again trying to tell everyone how great it is, nobody would even talk about it anymore as there is nothing to talk about.

You guys claim it's a great game. How so? The story is uninspired ideologic drivel. The gameplay was buggy and blatantly ripped off other open world games. There was nothing new, nothing exciting, nothing outstanding about the game.

>BUT FEMALE PROTAG
From Samus to Lara Croft, we have had those since forever. The Horizon one only stands out in being fugly. So please, name something that was great about the game, how it broke new ground, how it stands out in a mass of regurgitated open world games who all copy each other. Come on, do it.

Man, this is as bad as your attempt at rigging the google search results by spelling out the entire name. Which is wholly ignoring that "a brand new" is not an argument, especially since brand new high profile games with massive ad campaigns and hype surrounding them often see massive sales. Take No Man's Sky as an example. Is that really what you want to compare your retarded game to?

I also have zero idea why you keep bringing up BotW, I'm not a fan of that game. Never even played it. I merely hate you HZD faggots.

>A self-glorified Witcher 3 clone

You should be a game journalist with those opinions

Breath of the Wild is just as normal an opinion to have for the spot of #1, but in its case it deserves the spot by a wide margin. Nothing that meets its level of quality was released in the past 2 years.

>>383174441

Nah it was weird going straight from Zelda to Horizon but I didn't play anything for a little while and when I picked Horizon back up it was fine. I think going from BotW to any game is going to be strange because you can't climb everything and you can't just jump off whatever ledge you want.

>>383166213

>>383174363

Both sides are shilling, no side harder than the other, you spaz. And I'd argue botwfags shill harder due to not being able to have a cohesive HZD thread without someone mentioning it's "competition".

>>383174897
You also see people still playing the game long after they got bored with HZD. BotW will win in sales, game length, acclaim, awards. HZD probably won't even win anything at the goty awards. It'll be hilarious.

The DLC is still on the way, so Sony will still shill it as if anyone cares and then drop it as soon as it launches. Honestly I don't expect it to even get a sequel. It waaaaay underperformed by something like five million units. The core premise of 'hunting Robot Dinosaurs' wasn't as cool as they had promoted it as being.

Expect to see HZD on some best of the year lists and then be promptly forgotten.

>In 10 years, people will still be talking about innovative things that "Horizon Zero Dawn" does.
I don't believe that for a goddamn second. I'm not really even talking about what the game may or may not have done right because I've not played it and so can't comment on the quality of the game itself, but even with its commercial success, I've not seen much in the way of commentary from other developers on "how it does open world right" like what I've seen for BotW.

also the title is fuckin shit, nobody wants to talk about a game with a title like that

Seriously though, Turd in the Wild needs to be lower, MUCH lower.
Horizon doesn't even belong in the top 10.

Anyone who ranks Snake Pass that highly deserves to be shot.

How does HZD have akrham combat you retard?

>>383172773
What do sales have to do with being the "best"

>>383177753
Yes, I did say that. I also didn't comment on the quality of the game, nor the quality of BotW. I'm not saying which is better, but rather which has garnered more talk from developers, both independent and otherwise.

Holy fuck, the hipster levels are off the charts.

Is this all 2017 has to offer? Better be something on the way.

By Arkham style combat I just mean combat that prioritizes presentation over mechanics. Assassin's Creed, Arkham, melee in Uncharted, etc, where it's very cinematic with lot's of animation while requiring very little effort from the player.

Get your god damn act together, linking to businessinsider and shit fuck man the hell is wrong with you.

I don't understand why you're being so hostile. I've seen die hard sony fanboys say it's the best game of all time.

Are you Jim sterling by any chance?

It's the truth. I'd rather play a poor man's System Shock than a poor man's MGR or another generic fighting game or Mario Kart.

I beat Horizon in four hours. The faces had Andromeda-itis. It's a pretty game, and some stuff is fun, but not variety to weapons and you eventually can unlock every perk, and completion of the game only took me five hours on top of the main quest. It's a shallow third person shooter but with bows. Game didn't try hard enough to do anything unique.

I hope the DLC is huge and involves lots of new gameplay, not rehashing the main quest or adding more of those gay tedious hunting challenges.

>>383166213
Not a single one of those games would be on my top 20 this year.

2-11. Fuck gaming

>>383178858
What's your top 20? Genuinely curious, I just want to play some good fucking games!

>>383178832
>four hours
yeah no you didnt

the bows in horizon are reskinned guns with their insanely fast projectile travel time and lack of drop
the bows in botw actually take aiming and drop/travel time 'calculation'

>>383178749
Nothing has been great this year. I'm just conceding that the AAA shit might as well be the best out since it's all shit.
