HI EVERYONE! I'm going to run this Coint and Plick joint for the best games of the last calendar year, because forks has been doing it way too long and the guy DESERVES A GEE DEE BREAK ALREADY. Most of this is copy/pasted from his previous year's explanation (with minor additions/edits/changes by me).
As always, we're looking for games released in 2014; start adding your games for consideration here now. Please note the game AND the system it was released on like so:
WWE Supercard - MobileShadow of Mordor - PC/XONE/PS4/360/PS3
Console, PC/Mac, online only games, art games, MMORPGs, video game versions of card and party games, social network games and cellphone games are all entirely valid choices as long as they were versions released and/or maintained with updated material in '14. I will also accept any game that has been re-released this year in a new format/console, any game that is in a continuous state of change (basically MMORPGs) or downloadable content for a game made prior to 2013. That means World of Warcraft and any classic NES games released as Wiiware or iOS remakes are legit picks. Here's the catch though: I do ask that you keep in the spirit of the thing and only vote for reissues/new content/ongoing games if you played them THIS YEAR and (when applicable) only on the new system in question.
Things that shouldn't even be considered: board games, competitive card games, puzzles, tabletop rpgs, online fantasy sports, etc. Good rule of thumb is that if it can only be played on a screen, it's valid.
If you're listing an obscure import-only title, flash game, social network, art jam product, indie or lesser known game or basically anything on a phone, please include a URL for the game's fan/homepage/itunes/google store and (if possible) a screenshot or two for the listing so I can figure out what you're raving about and note appropriately.
Also, there's a LONG LEAD this year because I want to give ILX plenty of time to rep their nominations. PLEASE DO THAT OVER HERE. Let's keep this thread relatively tidy.
Yay video games!

I think this year even the good IF picks aren't that important to me, and there was no flash/online only stuff that I can think of to really rep for (not like Frog Fractions) so I might bow out entirely... maybe.

I am terrified to try puzzle and dragons. I think I asked this last year but: would I be too far behind if I started it now? probably won't but

Are we counting MPQ? What with it, you know, cleaning up in the 2013 poll? This whole "released in X year" thing is really getting fucked up by games that evolve that much.
also of note - zero wiiU games so far! :O
i'll probably dump a bunch of noms in here soon for games that people may have forgotten were in 2014, whether i played them or not.
― Francis Björk Morgan (Will M.), Tuesday, 6 January 2015 19:07 (ten years ago)
It's fair - games like MPQ/P&D get significant updates on a weekly basis, it's not different than votes for ongoing MMOs/yearly expansions of such.Also yeah, I'll be surprised Mario Kart 8, Smash Bros, Bayonetta 2 etc. don't end up getting voted for, though I don't own a Wii. Not to mention a ton of 3DS games as well: Smash Bros, Bravely Default, Weapon Shop de Omasse, Phoenix Wright vs. Layton, Yoshi's New Island, Fantasy Life, Tomodachi Life, Theatrhythm Curtain Call, Azure Strike/Mighty Gunvolt, , some others I'm definitely forgetting.... (Again, didn't actually any of these, even the ones I bought!)
― Nhex, Tuesday, 6 January 2015 19:15 (ten years ago)
btw if you vote for Clicker Heroes just imagine my eyes forming mystical daggers to eviscerate you across the internet space and time

haha I am "playing" clicker heroes today and yesterday b/c I am working on a crazy deadline and I need something to look at for 30 seconds now and then, to give a better sense of "progress" than I can get from 30 seconds of real work. & then it's back to the grind.

i'd do the first one. the second one is enjoyable for the way it expands on the mythology of the first game, but the gameplay is harder and more annoying.

I downloaded Secret Habitat from that RPS list over the weekend. Definitely recommend it for a quick test drive ... sort of reminded me of the Bubsy 3D James Turrell Experience, but not jokey at all. Procedurally generated paintings!

ooh good shout with mini metroi played so, so much of the beta when i should have been writing essays. i didn't realise it had come out for real though.
― olly, Wednesday, 21 January 2015 00:39 (ten years ago)
I wouldn't consider Mini Metro "out". You can pay "early access" for it (I did) but Disasterpeace (did music for FEZ) is doing music/sound engineering for this game and I'm so stoked to play with sound.

New characters and missions in a game that is essentially the exact same in all other ways doesn't really feel liek a significant change... besides do we really need it to be the top game of 2014 and 2015?

We've had games win and place the next year i think. usually on a new format, or because of major new content.

Towards the end of last year they put a bunch of the Castlevania handheld games on Wii VC. Do those count?

I nominated and voted for Rondo of Blood when it got on VC so there's a precedent.

Okidoke. I put Besiege and The Novelist on the list, I'll give everyone a grace period until... 4 hours or so from now, and then I am going to go home and build the ballot!
Stoked!

I guess Beseige didn't make it after all then? Ah well. I think I was the only one gonna vote for it anyway ( but go and play it, it's ace!)
― thomasintrouble, Friday, 6 February 2015 10:38 (ten years ago)
Shit! I thought I put it in. When you fill out your ballot, put Besiege 20th, it's at the end of the list for #20.

glad you like it, once i completed it i was like "....nobody will want to use this"
― otm rcuise (Will M.), Saturday, 7 February 2015 19:31 (ten years ago)
I do! Unfortunately, I won't get much use out of it as I didn't play enough 2014 games.
