Night in the Woods
Memorable

Basically what Snake said, but I'm a little more forgiving toward it. The gameplay can be weak but the story, characters and art style all give this game a super-distinct feel from anything else like it.

B+

Hitman
solid

I suck at stealth games, generally, but still found this to be a lot of fun. While I didn't find myself getting particularly invested in the overarching story, the variety of kills and locations was a blast, and I found myself repeatedly going back to levels to try for new objectives. Almost a little too overwhelming tbh.

B+

Dishonored: Death of the Outsider
fun enough

More Dishonored is a good thing. Surprisingly fleshed out for what I initially thought would basically just be a DLC pack. Billie Lurk isn't as compelling a character as the developers seem to think she is, and the reasoning for wanting to kill the Outsider isn't particularly convincing, but overall it's a couple fun new abilities and just a really pleasant kill-fest.

B

Destiny 2
decent

Not a game I would've bought for myself, but a friend got me it and I've had fun playing it. Forgettable story, repetitive missions and a shit ton of microtransactions turn me off of it but it's still got some gorgeous worlds to explore and really solid gameplay mechanics. Headshotting aliens with a hand cannon just never stops feeling satisfying.

C+

Lego Harry Potter
meets expectations

Pretty much exactly what you'd expect. Probably one of the better Lego games out there, but really doesn't make any real attempts to separate itself from other Lego games. And never having the potential to get the bonuses on the first run is frustrating after a while. I also tried playing Lego The Avengers and Lego Batman 3 this year, but got burnt out on Lego games fast and didn't beat either one.

C+

Oxenfree
spooky

Feel like there's not much I can say without spoiling it, but it's really inventive and I pretty much immediately got hooked in the story and atmosphere, despite slight annoyances in the gameplay.
