Kingdom Hearts 3
DMC5

Ketsui Deathtiny (the greatest title)
I was so ready to finally check out out Baba Is You. But I’m feeling piper pied to Supraland…

Hypnospace Outlaw really deserves a mention in here. I already know it’ll be in my top games of the year. I’ve never played anything like it.

dmc5 turned out that well? interesting
it’s both kind of unremarkable and close to perfect
Deliciously Masterful Cheesecake V
Capcom’s most impressive use of the newer tech yet, very easy to mash for glory then climb the skill ladder if you want, crazy modes/play available for those seeking ‘em.
Plot and level design are both extremely serviceable just to get the franchise Back to Formula, referencing and wrapping up as much as possible. Still completely welcoming to the non-familiar, somehow.
Right now that or Sekiro for me though the latter was muuuuch more engaging.
Yes, actually this. It is exactly what a game called DMC5 should be, based on DMC3 and 4, and kinda just an assertion from Capcom that “yeah, we can still do this shit the way it should be” and not trying for much past that (in a good way).
The strongest criticism I can give to DMC5 is the stages not having much identity of their own. I can remember a few spots fairly vividly from DMC3 and DMC4 but I’m only a month out of DMC5 and I can barely tell you of any super stand out stage moments except for maybe Nero’s platformer section towards the end.

Should’ve posted that list yesterday because Cadence of Hyrule came out today
(I haven’t even had time to play it yet but I’d be surprised to be disappointed)
