My game of the year though, by a mile, is Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. Wonderful in every way.

Did most of my gaming on PlayStation this year, so this is pretty representative of my year.

Can’t remember the last time I had a perfect victory in The Bazaar, let alone two in one day! Admittedly this wasn’t ranked though.

Just finished Lords of the Fallen. What an unexpectedly great Souslike. The final boss looked pretty cool too.

Too intimidated by the reported difficulty of Silksong to pick it up. Decided I wanted to play something easier, so I’m replaying Dark Souls III instead.

What does it say about me that I love hanging out in the forlorn worlds of the Souls games? Loved Shadow of the Colossus’ world too.

I’m playing Monster Train 2 on covenant 10 because that’s what @retromation.bsky.social does, and that’s what real gamers do, but OMG it’s stressful and I’m barely hanging on by the skin of my teeth. 😕

Finished Sword of the Sea. It looks incredible, traversal feels great, and the use of the PS5 controller’s haptics and speaker is excellent. It lacks the emotional heft of Journey though, and sometimes I thought its callbacks to that game (and Abzu) were a little heavy-handed. Still, recommended!

Sword of the Sea’s photo mode is so good it’s annoying, because I’m constantly compelled to interrupt my game to snap a new vista! 😀 Don’t think I’ve used photo mode in a game so heavily since Horizon Zero Dawn!

This is my favourite shot so far. Photo Mode is up on the D-Pad, if you haven’t discovered that yet. #swordofthesea

When I said it was a mix of Journey and Abzu l meant it literally. #swordofthesea

Sword of the Sea: “What if we literally put Journey and Abzu in the same game? And brought back those fun skiing sections from Journey, except this time you’d move like that *all the time*?!”

Horizon Forbidden West is very pretty.

In Horizon Forbidden West, I just realised that you can dive underwater. So I tried it in a small pool and realised it was really deep and there was an underwater passage and I swan through it and came up in a freaking water-filled cave!! The joy of unexpected discovery in an open world.

I’ve been getting back into Beneath Oresa again, this time on the PS5. Really satisfying roguelike deckbuilder with deliciously kinetic combat, nicely accentuated by the controller rumble!

Finally managed to beat not only Endless 2 but Endless 3 in Monster Train 2! Stacked Multistrike on my Umbra hero with Trample using multiple Furnace Taps, and handled all the Emberdrain with a Perils of Production with Holdover on it.
