47868 gingerale I had decided back in Spring that my Game of the Year would be Disco Elysium. This still holds true, and it is my pick, but it's not very interesting to just state the obvious like this. So here are some thoughts on other great games of 2022, starting with Shin's mentions from above.
Haven was a fantastic time and really a co-op experience I wish I could have more of. Absolutely deserves any praise it gets.
Horizon: Zero Dawn was excellent, but I am very glad I ended up splitting playing it in two halves divided by a full year or more. It's just too much at once due to my need to 100% areas in games that track things to do for you.
A returning title I've been incredibly happy with in the past weeks has been Mass Effect Legendary Edition. I didn't realise how much I missed my silly space opera. If only the remake had been a visual novel instead then I could get all the good parts and decisions without all the combat padding.
Finally playing through Metroid Dread was fantastic! But it's not a game that makes me want to try the harder difficulties or the in-built speedrun challenge. Loads of fun to just run and gun in a world of excellent aesthetic in under ten hours of play.
And of course, Splatoon 3 has been such good fun to play online for me. I'm having better time than in the previous game and it's quite a bit more challenging for me as well.
As the last thing I suppose I could list Astral Chain. It was most fun hack and slash I've had in a while, and I loved the story. I just wish I had experienced it for the first time myself. It was one of those games that I felt to be better played than watched. Still, got to finish the post-ending missions and all the secrets and get letter rankings on the files someday.

47866 shinmera GotY 2022
Well hecko, it's the time of the year again, and for once it's a difficult decision for me.
I played both Disco Elysium and Haven this year, which were amazing in very different ways. Disco Elysium is a fantastic work of art that should definitely be experienced on your own, and Haven is the best coop game I've ever played. Since Disco Elysium already has enough awards going for it I think I'll give it to Haven though.
Honourable mentions are Horizon Zero Dawn, which I enjoyed a lot more than I thought I would, and Tales of Berseria, which has a nicely fresh take on a jRPG story.
Unmentions go to Splatoon 3 and Rune Factory 5, both of which were big disappointments for me.

47840 gingerale Turns out there is one more item that my friend's sharp shark eyes missed. A very fine pen! Nice and light and draws clear and has very cute design to it. Thank you!
Edit: Sent the wrong image file..

Christmas of 2021 has arrived! 🎄
I finally received the package from Mithent. Thank you for seeing it through!
Now, presenting is my dear friend blåhaj ready to help me unwrap the package. And thank goodness, as the gluework was tight and tough. But nothing is match to those handsome and sharp teeth!
Inside was a curious looking green bag and a card with lovely Christmas wishes. The blåhaj curiosity immediately took over and the bag was emptied to reveal four finely wrapped gifts! These did not require the strong toothwork but rather the finesse of an intelligent ocean predator. And with that the giftwraps were undone post haste!
This revealed many goodies to us! Fruit pastilles, minstrels milk chocolate, orange shaped orange chocolate, and really lovely looking christmas tea. None of which is available here despite their apparent deliciousness! As a testament to my previous statement, more than half of the orange chocolate may have already disappeared while preparing this post...
Once again, thank you so much, Mithent, for making sure the package finally makes its way here. I really appreciate!
Edit: Didn't realise the image order had been fixed and had to remake the post. Ignore the deleted one above!

47830 Haackula Nah I lost my phone and had to get a replacement with a new simcard. Try it again bruh. I don't even have your number anymore. I literally lost every single persons number.
Also a lot of these songs are good.
