What are everyone's most favorite games from 2016? They don't have to have been released in 2016, just something that you only played in that year.
I'd say the ones I enjoyed the most were (in order):
The Talos Principle: Philosophical puzzle game with beautiful music. It doesn't get better than this.
FEZ: I loved the idea behind it and the atmosphere was beautiful. Unfortunately, some of the background puzzles were just a bit too obscure for me to get, and I stopped playing because of that.
Skyrim: It's Skyrim.
Dwarf Fortress: Not sure if I really enjoyed the time I spent playing this (it mostly made me angry), but I sunk so much time into it and I can't stop coming back.
Pokemon Alpha Sapphire: A great game, in the best region.
Honorable mentions:
GameMaker: Yes I know it's not really a game, but it's so much easier than building your own engine, and surprisingly versatile.
Python: Once again, not a game, but it's what got me back into programming. It's so much more fun!
Cities Skylines: I would have put this in the top five, but I didn't spend as much time in it as I should have, with how much I enjoyed it. I attribute that to starrting the Talos Principle at about the same time.
Shame (as in, I'm ashamed of how much I played these) pit of hell:
TF2: Curse you, matchmaking update!
Hearthstone: I will be happy if I never play that again in my life. It's like cocaine, but not nearly as fun and a lot more expensive. I never did spend any money on it, but the growing necessity to do so was what made me drop it.
