Coint & Plick X: The 50(ish) best games of 2016

weird mordy, i hadn't heard about that rimworld thing :( guess i didn't play enough to notice either

just a curiosity imo - you really wouldn't know anything was up without looking under the hood.

nb i'm feeling protective of dwarf fortress which i think is a far superior game but rimworld was good for some lolz i liked making a freezer.

yeah i didn't know about the rimworld controversy, either. many, many videogames have glaring problems with sexism and gender roles, of course, but i suppose games that simulate aspects of human relationships are different because you can actually addresses sexuality in the code. makes me wonder how games like The Sims evolved over the years.

because you can actually ^look into how the game ^addresses sexuality in the code, i meant

xxp it is! It's also one of three games from 2016 that I played last year, so expect to see them skewing the results in another 10 points.

also the watch dogs vote was me. i really had a great time with it. yeah it has a lot of "attitude" but i did appreciate how A) tonally consistent the whole thing was (even if it was puerile, it's rare to see a playyground game feel so... well-curated?) and the city is great (even if it's just based on sf) and has actually engaging content (looking at you, almost evry other open world game)

Aaaaaand that's it for today. Gonna start tomorrow with a tie for 20th!

Yaaay I think I voted for something

uhh... did you?

Just to say my easily pleased contrarian heart is delighted by the Deus Ex: Mankind Divided / Nuclear Throne / Picross 3DS Round 2 / Titanfall 2 run, and I haven't even played any of these games.

glad i checked in on ilx today to see the results.

I TOTALLY FORGOT I WAS SUPPOSED TO FINISH THIS TODAY

i didn't realize street fight v was a 2016 game, it seems so old already

18 - Steep - 30 points / 0.33 First-place votes / 1 Vote
http://i.imgur.com/eqUYL6X.png

it is over a year old, but that's more due to me taking forever to collect/release this EOY!

has anyone made a plugin yet that autoposts ilx poll results to a thread? :P

lol I just assumed if crashlands got 3 votes then that must have meant I remembered to vote; I only really put time into one nominee because I only play games that are either old or terrible or both

nope, 3 other ppl voted for it! never got a ballot from you (double checked and panicked when u said your voted, hence my confused response)

(any pref for the last 11 -- tmrw or monday?)

tomorrow good for me

So PO-ed about Jackbox 3 being current gen only. I've been such a vocal champion of those games. They owe me a PS3 version. Or a writing job, at least.

reading thread. nothing to add. but thanks

xcom 2 is a game i'm saving for a rainy day. i know i'll love it, and i know what to expect, so i just kind of want to save it for a while.

i'm kind of curious about steep. i played the shit out of cool boarders 2 for psx back in the day, and the thought of open world sounds enticing, but something makes me suspect that steep is a game where you spend more time on loading screens than the actual game
