MechanicalWall 03/27/20 8:48:57 PM #414:	Keltiq posted... I started and didn't finish Pyre due to life getting in the way, but isn't the gameplay basically just 3-on-3 hoops? The story seemed pretty solid, at least. Meanwhile I must have beaten Bastion a dozen times and actually tried to speedrun it for a little bit. Transistor is similarly incredible. I just really REALLY hated the 'lose ability on death' mechanic in Transistor.

KamikazePotato 03/27/20 8:54:31 PM #428:	In fact I think you can group the indie games in this contest into three distinct groups: the early hits, the modern classics, and the Just Happy To Be Here. The early hits wouldn't make nearly as a big a splash if they came out today, but they gained notoriety for being good games that helped put Indie Games as a whole on the map. The modern classics are indie games that managed to stand out among the veritable ocean of indie games out right now, and thus have really strong fanbases. This group will overall be the strongest. The Just Happy To Be Here games are good and relatively popular, but they aren't as well-regarded as the Modern Classics and don't have the nostalgic edge of the Early Hits. They might've taken the indie scene by storm back at the start of the decade, but there's just too many options nowadays. They're the weak link. Early Hits: Bastion VVVVVV Binding of Isaac Super Meat Boy Modern Classics: Cuphead Hollow Knight Life is Strange INSIDE Undertale Shovel Knight Stardew Valley Journey Celeste Just Happy To Be Here: Edith Finch Baba Is You FTL: Faster Than Light Return of the Obra Dinn The Stanley Parable Slay the Spire Hotline Miami Dead Cells Terraria Subnautica Crypt of the NecroDancer Night in the Woods --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. <cite>KamikazePotato posted [p:936346865] in Contest St...

Lightning Strikes 03/27/20 8:55:13 PM #431:	TWD has a 94 on Metacritic, high GameFAQs rating, won the most GotY awards that year including the VGAs, and did well in the GotY polls.

KamikazePotato 03/27/20 8:58:33 PM #439:	I guess I should add Talos Principle to the 'Just Happy To Be Here' list? I actually have no idea what it is and I know basically everything in this bracket. Disco Elysium I excluded because a game that won as many awards as it really doesn't deserve to be in a tier called 'Just Happy To Be Here' but on GameFAQs it's not going to do so great. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. <cite>KamikazePotato posted [p:936347110] in Contest St...

HaRRicH 03/27/20 8:58:54 PM #443:	TWD is probably stronger in a Game of the Decade-sense -- it truly reinvented point-and-click games and tied cinema to gameplay in an influential way. I predict it's stronger in this contest than it was when it faced UC4. Also though, yes, TWD was always going to be weak based off its 2012-GotY showings. https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/4960-best-of-2012-game-of-the-year Fourth place in a poll featuring likely our weakest GotY winner this contest isn't inspiring.
