#94 - Animal Crossing: New Leaf (3DS, 2013)

Animal Crossing was always one of my favorite series (even though I skipped City Folk all together) so I eventually went to the early release at Nintendo World in NYC and got the game a day early. Since Animal Crossing is very much entrenched in is mandatory tutorials that have you waste days (and is entirely the reason New Horizons won't be making my top 10 this year) it was actually great to have this early. Even had some great online experiences with both board 8 and some players on the Something Awful forums during my 50 hours with it. It was better than the two previous titles at the very least.

#93 - South Park: The Stick of Truth (PS3, 2014)

I haven't watched much South Park in years and only remember a few episodes, but The Stick of Truth is one of the few licensed games that really stick the landing on the humor of the show and bring it into a honestly great turn-based RPG, despite the framerate drops and slowdown on the PS3 version. Beat the game with a Thief the first time through, and then a Jew to get the one trophy and cleanup the collectables missed the first time around. I still have yet to get to Fractured But Whole, but I'll probably enjoy that one once I do!

#92 - Letter Quest: Grimm's Journey (PC, 2014)

This is probably the least recognizable game on my list. It's basically a RPG crossed up with Scrabble in which you have a pool of 15 letters and you spell a word to damage enemies. Several enemies have different conditions, like taking more damage with a word with a certain letter, or they can affect the tiles used by having them inflict poison when using some of them. It's very addicting, and I've gotten the achievements in it three times - the original and remastered versions on Steam, and the Vita version. Sadly the only other game these developers have made is some idle game for mobile devices, and I'm completely uninterested in that.

#91 - Dynasty Warriors 8 (PS3, 2013)

Dynasty Warriors 8 was the first Three Kingdoms Warriors game I've finished, so it's also naturally the highest musou on my list as well. I initially only completed Wu and Shu first and thought the game to be merely average overall, but eventually got to the true heroes in Wei, Jin, and the Others and was much more invested in their stories. This is still one of my favorite videos regarding the series:

I still have not earned the platinum in this because it is ridiculous for how much time it takes to get the last bronze trophy, and I don't think I'll be doing it any time soon. Still, this game caused me to buy many other Warriors games, some of which I've enjoyed (but not as much as this one) and some that are best left forgotten.

Jin > Wei > Others > Wu >>>>>>>>>>>>> Shu
