In my opinion:
Most underrated game of 2025: Two Point Museum
Most overrated game (but still very good): Clair Obscur: Expedition 33
Favourite game I played *from* 2025: Elder Scrolls Oblivion: Remastered (the nostalgia 🥺)
Favourite game I played *during* 2025: Metaphor: ReFantazio #gaming

So Jolly McTrouble is genuinely delicious. Festive spice top half, inoffensive sweet vanilla bottom.
Gary the Penguin (Doo Doo Doodoo)... I could still taste the white pepper at 4AM. Probably doesn't help I'm not a massive bubblegum fan.

I've given 10/10s to two games in my lifetime: Worms Armageddon (1998) and The Witcher 3.
I'm thinking #Metaphor #ReFantazio might be my third. 50 hours in, I love everything about it. Except Del. He's the Ryuji of this game. #JRPG
