9. Nier: Automata

The publishers behind Nier: Automata made one crucial mistake. They decided to release the game one week before Horizon: Zero Dawn (one of the most anticipated PS4 exclusives) and two weeks before Breath of the Wild (one of the most anticipated games, full stop.)

You can imagine how that affected the game...

All of which is a shame, considering just how fun it is to play. The combat is intuitive and really engaging when you start to master it. The world is vibrant, creative and full of those unique little stories you want in an open world RPG. It was endearing and a true gem hidden behind the more boisterous games released in early 2017.

I like video games, writing and writing about video games. Expect sarcasm and the dry wit of a Brit. And the occasional rant of a unhappy Scot. You know... the usual.
