The gems aren’t hard to find. Good games have fans singing them praises from the rooftops. I could give you an almost endless list if you asked for good games, and they wouldn’t all be old.
minus-squaremohab@piefed.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·11 hours agoDepends on the genre. Not every genre gets a boatload of new good games every year. We only got like 2 action games last year and one of them was not so warmly received (Lost Soul Aside) and a handful of indies in early access. By action, I mean Bayonetta, Devil May Cry, Ninja Gaiden… etc. not the broad, useless Game Awards definition. Not many new good shmups or fighting games either.
