Top 3 games of the decade

[Father Jack]

If I rank games by roughly how much time i sank into them it would be:

3. GTA V (although I barely recognise online now whenever I happen to briefly drop in for a look from time to time)
2. Fallout 4
1. No Man's Sky

Honourable mentions go to RDR 2, Skyrim, Civ V and Crusader Kings 2.

For some reason I just couldn't get into Witcher 3 even though I generally love that style of game and I've read a whole bunch of Witcher books and I'm very much looking forward to the TV show.

Red dead Redemption.
While I enjoyed the stunning 4k visuals of the third instalment in this series (RDR2), I just felt Red Dead Redemption flowed a lot better. Played through it again after flogging RDR2. Just loved crossing the border and riding through the south. The story line was more engaging and wasn't tiresome like RDR2.

Minecraft.
Just loved this sandbox pixelated game. It's been a massive hit and the exploration/crafting is second to none. Getting lost underground was what hooked me to this game. Spent many hours building random stupid shit.

Assassin's Creed Origins.
Played the earlier Creed games religiously until Black Flag. The series went to shit until Origins. Absolutely stunning in 4K and the map is delightful. Will be playing Odyssey this x-mas break.

Each to their own on GTA 5. Thought the map and style was lazy and boring compared to past GTA games.

3. Bioshock Infinite

1. Dishonored (3 votes)
2. RE2 (2 votes)
3. Wolfenstein: The New Order (1 vote)

First 2 were easy for me but 3 could have gone to either of The Last of Us, Quantum Break, Soma or A Plague Tale. Ultimately went with Wolfenstein TNO cuz I just loved the shit out of it.

Not sure if this is supposed to be favourite games we've played over the past decade or if it's restricted to games released in the past decade. As I have no idea when most games were released I'll go with the first option.

3 votes: Civilization 5
2 votes: Ark: Survival Evolved
1 votes: Archeage

Honorary mentions to : Endless Legend, Entropia Universe, Rift, Darkest Dungeon and Don't Starve Together

 

[Supersuns]

1: Skyrim
2: The Witcher 3
3: Red Dead Redemption 2

 

[Determinant]

1 Fallout 4
2 Skyrim
3 Fallout New Vegas

 

[Vedder]

The Witcher 3
Skyrim
BL 2

 

[Marlowe]

1. The Witcher 3
2. Red Dead Redemption
3. The Last of Us

Honourable mention: Red Dead Redemption 2 (probably a better game but the first one is so formative for me), BioShock Infinite, Skyrim, Uncharted 3 and 4 and Lost Legacy, Alien: Isolation, Journey, Battlefield 4.

 

[Gethelred]

1. Dark Souls: start of a passion for me, and (outside potentially Bloodborne) the only one that I feel the PVE is worth it without the PVP. I beat Gwyn and I jump straight into NG+ and into the undead berg almost without thinking, where I defeat Soul of Cinder/Nashandra/Aldia/moon presence/Gehrmann and I turn the game off for a bit.
2. Tales of the Borderlands: the start to middle of Ch.5 remains to me one of the most affecting moments within a video game, one which almost transcends the medium and becomes literature.
3. Skyrim: drop me in a cave - any cave - on the mainland, and I could probably tell you where it is. Poured sooo much time into this beast.

This took me far too long than what it needed to be but I got there.

1. Witcher 3 - not only of the decade but one of my genuine GOATs. What a game.

2. Diablo 3 - not initially at launch of course, but by the time Reaper of Souls released it was like an entirely new game. In terms of time investment it's only second to WoW for me. Probably my favourite aRPG looter of all time.

3. Fallout New Vegas - the gameplay certainly came with a lot of warts, but it was one of the last true AAA RPGs.
