       As a reminder, as a game reviewer, I am more qualified to declare Game of the Year than any faggot running something called the "Gay Awards" or some nonsense. So that is what I am going to do. Below is the list of the nominees for 2024's Game of the Year. I will go into brief depth on each game in the replies to this post telling you why each game is good (and not good). There will eventually be a poll, but just like the gay awards, your vote does not matter at all.Granblue RelinkReverse Collapse Codename BakeryIron MeatShadow of the Ninja RebornMetal Slug TacticsCard en CielBakeruVirtua Unlimited Project

       Granblue Fantasy RelinkThis one speaks for itself. If you have not played Relink, what is wrong with you? Equal parts character action and MonHun set in a beautifully realized rendition of the Granblue Versus franchise.Cons: Endgame grind is so slow glaciers will pass you by, but you will, 99% of the time, be having fun while you grind because the game itself is still so good.More detailed review at https://tmdvidya.neocities.org/reviews/granbluerelink

       Reverse Collapse: Codename BakeryJust as with Relink, Bakery is another shot where gacha devs try to make a real game. This time the Girls Frontline guys revisit and totally revamp their first game. Most of you never played the first game, but the core point is that this is Fire Emblem with guns but also VERY hard. Important that it is Fire Emblem, not XCOM. Cover and cowering in such does not help you very much here, and the average fight is your four man squad including one barefoot anime girl versus 40-80 dudes, all of whom can down you in just a couple good shots.Cons: Dr. Skelton, a dumbass: "Man, most SRPGs are boring move-attack stuff. I really want one that makes me think every move!" I HAVE NOT ONCE, NOT FUCKING ONCE, CLEARED A SINGLE TURN OF THIS FUCKING GAME WITHOUT HAVING TO RELOAD AND RETRY AND RERUN IT SEVERAL TIMES TO FIND A COMBO OF MOVES WHERE I DO NOT EAT SHIT. It REALLY is hard as hell and extremely draining to play. I am never going to finish this crap because as exceptional as it is, playing it is just totally exhausting, and I am too proud to drop difficulty.

       Iron MeatLiterally this is Contra but good. That is all you need to know. It is fair, it is quick, it has a rocking soundtrack. At NO point does this game ever stick you in a vehicle or waste your time with a dumb mode-7 style minigame. There is no competition for Contrafags. This game wins period.Cons: It is JUST Contra. And there is currently no way to really play it arcade style. The game is full stage select, resets your lives every stage. It is still quite tough if you ask it to go hard on you, and I actually prefer stage based play, but if you are a purist, the game does not really care about you. (Then again, neither do the actual Contra devs, and they care a LOT less since they did not even make Iron Meat for you.)

       Shadow of the Ninja RebornThe makers of Pocky and Rocky Reshrined, Wild Guns Reloaded, and Ninja Saviors: Return of the Warriors remake another classic. I have seen the discourse here, I know you guys aren't playing those. But this is still a top notch platformer of top notch pixel art made by masters of their craft. There has not been an arcade length game that really called me to replay for mastery as much as this one. It is a blast from start to finish. Plus the ninja gorl has nice thighs.Cons: If you like your ninjas fast and agile and leaping and flipping everywhere, this game is not for you. They did a lot to make jumping a high commitment move and not an answer to combat. This game really cares about jumping and what it means in a way that very few have, but the way they treat it throws off a lot of people expecting something more conventional. I love it myself.

       Metal Slug TacticsThe quick answer is just to say this game is worthy of the Metal Slug name. What it really is is Into the Breach remixed as Metal Slug. A quick playing, elegant strategy game where health is small and fights are over quick. The core conceit is that the farther you move each turn, the more damage you can "dodge," as in you just tank and ignore it. But if you can attack something a teammate is attacking, you can join in for a follow-up attack. This tug of war dictates every single move you make in the game. Move far, but make sure far is still useful to your teammates. A relatively short run length, a lot of different team members with different perks, weapons, gimmicks, and five difficulties that meaningfully change enemy formations and abilities all give this a lot of replayability.Cons: Fairly buggy in its current state. A couple maps I keep running into feel overtuned, but since it is a roguelite, I do not get do-overs to see if it was just me misplaying. I do almost as much move recalculating here as I do in Bakery, but here it takes a fraction of the time because the whole game is designed around testing your moves and undoing them to see how they look until you finally make an action and commit, which again, might not be for everyone.

       Card en CielInti Creates makes a roguelite card battler out of all their unused art assets and attaches it to an idol song album and also gaming's only lap pillow simulator. Lots of variety in card abilities and rarer than an SSR gacha pull is Inti Creates finally making a game with a rank system that does not ruin casual gameplay.Cons: If you play other roguelite card games, the fact that the game predetermines your core deck gimmicks might feel unsatisfying, where the more traditional games of this genre have you cobbling together an answer to the game from whatever the game feels like offering.

       Bakeru3D platformer set in Japan that LOVES Japan. From the guys who did Kirby's Epic Yarn and Yoshi's Woolly World comes a game as joyful and fun as any Kirby game ever was.Cons: It is also as easy as any Kirby game ever was.

       Virtua Unlimited ProjectIron Meat was a crazy Russkie making Contra. VUP is some crazy chinks making Mega Man Zero, and this is good for the same reasons Iron Meat was good: MMZ done right is almost always going to be one of the best platformers you ever play and VUP nails that, iterating on the MMZ formula in several clever ways.Cons: Same as Iron Meat, it is still JUST MMZ. If you want spikes to instant kill you properly, you have to beat the game once and play on the unlockable difficulty.

       Just some other games of note: Granblue Versus Rising dropped this year but only faggots and homos play fighting games.Metaphor Refantazio probably deserves a spot in the list. By all rights it looks like one of the most interesting and full-featured things Fatlus has done in decades, but JRPGfags can suck it. SMTfags are losers and will NEVER get GotY. Plus Fatlus works for a child groomer publisher who loves Denuvo so I'll probably never get around to trying it.

       Antonblast is also coming soon and I am taking a big risk making this thread now but... I think I will simply put my e-cred on the line: I think it will be good. I do not think Antonblast will be GotY material like Pizza Tower was. I could be totally wrong, this is as risky as any political prediction, but I am going to make that bet.

       Every game I mentioned is S tier and GotY material. EVERYTHING they put out recently is gold and Shadow of the Ninja Reborn is no exception. Just, again, you have to accept the old school arcade guys know what they are doing when you expect to do your dashing ninja flips and eat shit for trying. (They do know what they are doing and it works and you still feel really agile but it is a paradigm shift.)

       For what it's worth, I played the developers card games and Puzzle Strike is one of the best versus deckbuilders ever created while Yomi is rock paper scissors while a bunch of deranged faggots pretend it is so much deeper (Which makes it a good fightan game simulator) but that averages out to be respecting the designer quite a bit.

       @Arkana @DrRyanSkelton hearing about this stuff this is why I scratched it off my wish list despite being interested in it. Atlus is too deep in the Leftist POZZ for me to ever play their games again. From their new stuff to their “remasters/remakes”. They used to be at least nuanced in their approaches to controversial or societal things like psychology, but now it’s just virtue signaling, Twitter-politics, with pride flag pins and censoring in P3 Reload, to equity proselytizing in Metaphor.

       @Arkana @DrRyanSkelton Another Japanese game that makes the bold assertion that people should stop being mean to one another, the rich should feed the poor and the strong protect the weak.I really wish they realized they don't have anything to add to any conversation happening anywhere.

       @Aviz @Arkana even some Japanese steam reviews talk about how puerile the politics are ("There is an election to determine the next king but the bad guy is in the lead and protag is not so we need to assassinate him" is the sort of political coherence you except from some dog mom on twitter) but Japs being unable to talk beyond basic bitch post-war liberalism is a 20 year old problem. Blackrock ramming a hand up their rear and using them as a puppet is a newer problem and I would need to actually play the game to know the difference. Plus the actual villains actual evil plans and grievances are tied to the actual story, it seems, and not as a political standin, at least from my brief research.

       @Arkana @DrRyanSkelton Yeah it definitely does. Its fun though. Definitely a persona clone. Writing is decent at least.

       I am and I think the only thing fantasy strike was good for was having its developers move on to work on 2XKO / Project L with Riot Games... Unless im confusing it with Rising Thunder. Which is also not that interesting. It also kind of pioneered the idea of a free to play (traditional) fighting game which is good, so far only Riot Games and Cygames/ArcSys have replicated this with GBVSR having a f2p option and 2XKO / Project L planned to be free to play like LoL and make money off skins. They both come from a weird era (Pre-covid SF5 era) where rollback netcode was starting to reluctantly become the standard and there was a massive push for new player accessibility and simplicity above all else.

       YOMI Hustle is the much better turn based fighting game simulator and im still upset they had to change the name to Your Only Move is Hustle because of said card game.

       Personally I dislike that design philosophy since it hinges on the long-term replayability of the game and the cycle of innovate > hone > achieve mastery on waiting on the next patch to add more to do since everything is so easy. As someone invested in being competetive in the genre, I can live with a very simple game, but there is a huge audience of fighting game players that enjoy having a lot of depth to chew on while not actually being able to replicate it fully themselves. People like being challenged.

       Rain Code got ported to PC from Switch this year and I really think that despite how good the games are this year, Rain Code would sweep this year without question. Rain Code is just that good. Some big game only losers play Elder something?... whatever, it got some DLC too but I don't think anyone takes that seriously. Astlibra's DLC would beat the shit out of it and probably sweep too.Honestly no other big after the fact PC ports come to mind. Rain Code is pretty big though as leaving Switch to PC allows the beautiful environment design to actually function

       It's the Danganronpa writer too. It's basically the Danganronpa guy doing a detective story and doing just a bit less fucking with the viewer for shock value. I would say it is easily his best work.

       I will admit I have the biggest smile on my face every time I hit the Declaration of Miracle button (but I still have to redo those turns a half dozen times too)

       @DrRyanSkelton The feeling of curbstomping the swarms of assholes is incredible, been slowly replaying through each level on hard mode while trying to get achievements and yeah I would have definitely stopped if I hadn't already finished the game on normal (and I have ballistic missiles in case I just fucking can't)

       @shotgunner I tried running it again even down to Normal and I just think I would rather be playing Metal Slug Tactics at this point (watching the old boss man get critted and one shot while in a fucking house from an enemy I did not even see among the 10 I killed that turn made a strong argument too). I cannot take anything away from the depth, quality, and quantity it has. It deserves a spot on any GotY contenders list, but I still am not finishing this nonsense

       It's really good but honestly the back half got so boring I just quit. Keying in the same order of commands for the same solved fight 12 times just so I could get to the boss where I do the same order of commands but turns 1, 4, 7 etc I do a turn of buffs just felt way longer than I liked. Consumable checkpoint/savepoint/warp point items were a big help but not big enoughThat said, exceptional implementation of a specific focused design and I had fun until I didn't.
