    His choices are:

    The Best

    1. Hi-Fi Rush
    2. The Talos Principle 2
    3. Shadows of Doubt
    4. Amnesia: The Bunker
    5. Dredge

    The Blandest

    1. Starfield
    2. Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora
    3. Hogwarts Legacy
    4. Final Fantasy XVI
    5. Jedi Survivor

    The Worst

    1. Gollum
    2. Forspoken
    3. Hellboy Web of Wyrd
    4. Mortal Kombat 1
    5. Redfall

    Most of these are not at all surprising I would say. Except Yahtzee not putting Amnesia as is #1, considering how much he seems to love it, and maybe Hogwarts being in bland not bad.

    (edit)
    Does the formatting also break weirdly in how there is no empty line after each enumeration before the next headline for you?

      HL being in bland is less about it being bland and more a statement about how bad bad the games that made the bad list actually were.

      I’m surprised by Amnesia. I thought it felt incredibly dated. The AI pathing/logic was rough.

      If it came out in 2012 I would have enjoyed it a ton, but it just felt frustrating with how the AI worked.

    Lol a lot of the games I’ve played this year have been classed as ‘bland’ so I’m not sure what that says about my tastes. TotK was my GOTY but I put a lot of time into Starfield, Hogwarts, and FFXVI and enjoyed all of them. I’ve played a chunk of BG3 but haven’t been able to get into it as much. Think the battles go on too long for my liking.

      this is just one random dude’s opinion. it has no meaning whatsoever to anyone except him and his fans.

      You love what you love! don’t worry so much about what one dude says about the games you like. 💕

      Yahtzee is infamously hard to please, and honestly I thought one of the games he put on the ‘best’ tier was bland!
