Uncharted 4 of course. Or Gravity Rush 2, or Ni-Oh, or The Last Guardian.

I liked Uncharted 4, but the game hardly had any gameplay, it felt like you spent more time climbing than in the action. The dialogue in the game is pretty comfy and makes me wish I had friends like sully

I;m pretty convinced No Mans Sky will get GOTY.
Not everyone will like it but it will get the spot for it being unique and ambitious.

Other contenders are Dishonoured 2 and The Last Guardian.
>>
>>345100696
Climbing isn't gameplay?

The multiplayer is fun as fuck, by the way.

Dishonored 2 is doing nothing new or interesting. goty belongs to a next gen game, something that pushes the industry forward like witcher 3 last year. Uncharted 4, FF15, or Last Guardian are the ones closest to fit that bill this year.

I started playing through it today and considering how bad the shooting feels I don't count that statement as a negative.

it's bait but let's be fair, gameplay wise and cutscene to gameplay ratio is far worse than it was in Uncharted 1-3 and Last of Us.

i played it alright.
and the shooting segments and the setpieces were really great.
that madagascar chase is fucking amazing.
but there is just not much of it.
the first half of the game is a lot of story exhibition and very little freedom in combat.
it gets better towards the end but even on the island there is just a shitton of mindless climbing, wich was never fun in uncharted games.

10 minutes of walk and talk that far into the game.

>>
>>345104573
You can't have action 100 percent of the way through otherwise it just becomes dull. Yo have to sprinkle it and have it ramp up near the end. The real meat of the game comes from the exploration and piecing together this side plot of captain avery while also dealing with character conflicts and picking up other treasures
>>
>>345104863

That's why you vary the action, retard. Pushing forward on the stick while people talk at you kills the momentum
>>
>>345099190
>Uncharted 4

That strong independent woman pleases neither side. On one side she loses all her power and importance in the story, and on the other she conveniently offloads her villainy onto someone else so she basically gets away scot free with no chance for you to avenge the losses she gave you.
>>
>>345104191

Literally nothing happens the game. Better call it sleepthrough.
>>
>>345105103
The action is varied though. Compare the open ended madagascar encounters to the big bombastic multilayered chase after the clock tower to the elaborate psx area where you're isolated without teammates to the towering fantastical libertalia market and housing area with sam and how that ramps up the collapsing buildings and showdown with nadine where you're falling through broken boards and climbing around to continue the fight meanwhile dodging bullets then compared to the multi-leveled jeep escape with elena and the use of bouncing from elevator to elevator in midst of firefights then compared to the fight and chase agaist the armored truck where you're jumping over towers, running through markets, using your rocket launcher, sully saving you in the knick of time, then the ropeswinging ship graveyard and the bossfight. There's plenty more spots I'm skipping. The point is, there's A LOT of action.
>>
>>345105369
>offloads her villainy
There are no villains in Uncharted 4. Did you watch the video already posted? Keep the fuck up. She did nothing evil. Only Rafe did in the beginning by backstabbing the mexican security guard, but even then that was a more in the moment, give me what i came here for, we gotta get the fuck out of this jail type of ordeal.
>>
So far I'd have to give it to Overwatch, but I have high hopes for Dishonored 2 and Gravity Rush 2
>>
>>345106146

So in summary: multiple scriptee vehicle segments, repeatedly hitting th x button to make him jump, scripted shooting, and a boss fight that may or may not scripted. Thrilling

>>345105103
>Pushing forward on the stick while people talk at you kills the momentum
You're not pushing forward on the stick in linear environments though. You're in a boat, in a jeep, climbing, sliding, ropeswinging, etc. looking for treasure, diaries, talking with your partners. One of my favorite sections is the Island part with Sam when you're going to individual islands, looking in sunken ships, playing marco polo and looking for clues on where Avery's stash is.

Skip to 6 minutes

You're blatantly ignoring the open ended nature in how these firefights go about. Look at what BG is doing. He's grabbing dudes behind cover, vaulting over, ropeswinging and doing takedowns, getting caught in holds while having Elena help him, jumping into the water and flanking them. This is a whole lot of shit, but no it's just generic. You're just going to continue to lie and shitpost.

You better not be talking shit about Kirby Lagann.

>>
>>345109674
He's not Indiana Jones, he's not a "good guy" and was never established as one. He steals things on his own accord for his own gain and thrills in the pursuit of a destined path bestowed by Sir Francis Drake. We root for him though because he's likable, charismatic, and we're with him the whole way through. He's also a human being with flaws and moral complications.
>>
>>345110157
The game wants you to look at him as a good guy though. It never implies Drake is in the wrong for his actions.
At least with stuff like GTA you're playing as a guy who admits he's a criminal.
>>
>>345110157
Let's not forget that he's basically a thrill seeker that kills without remorse and often kills hundreds of people throughout every game.

Sure you can sometimes try sneaking past enemies without killing anyone in Uncharted 4, but it's not like Drake gives a shit if you don't bother.
>>
>>345100895
Please stop ;_;
>>
>>345110703
You only kill out of defense though. You never kill first unless you do so. You never have to. That's you doing that. Even in 2, during the stealth sections, Drake and Flynn both explicitly pointed out in cutscenes to use tranqulizers and sleep holds to be quiet.
>>

Mario doesn't offer "muh realism" as one of its selling points, like Uncharted does.
>>
>>345111338
Because they were going up museum guards, who might as well be innocent people who are just doing their job. If he was going up against mercenaries or any other group of trained killers, then he wouldn't hesitate to kill any of them if given the choice.
>>
>>345111832
>If he was going up against mercenaries or any other group of trained killers, then he wouldn't hesitate to kill any of them
Doesn't hesitate to kill native people either
>>
>>345111801
What are you getting at? You're able to bypass entire enemies in 4, and you only really have to shoot when they're shooting at you or driving fucking tanks at you. It's self defense and their mercenaries. They know what they signed up for. Why are you even debating these things like they detract from the experience. They've put enough thought into them, certainly more than any other shooter series, yet Uncharted is still nitpicked incessantly. The guys nate kills are goons and thugs. When he's on his adventures, it's the wild west, but Naughty Dog make sure no civilians get cought in fire.
>>
>>345112073
>Doesn't hesitate to kill native people either
When did he do that??

>>345112458
Not saying it's good or bad. Just that Nathan Drake is a materialistic psychopath who kills without remorse. Furthest thing from a hero, or even a likeable protagonist.
>>
Uncharted 4, literally nothing else coming this year looks like it will come close.

>Nathan Drake is just a trash protagonist.
But how? If they took away the ability for you to shoot in the game, you people would be complaining that the game was too "boring"
>>
I was gonna suggest DOOM originally, but the game didn't feel quite as fun on the second playthrough and the multiplayer is trash.

Overwatch destroyed whatever love I had for team based shooters and it made me never want to work with another human being ever again. Easily the biggest disappointment of the year even if the critics try to argue otherwise.

Uncharted 4 might be the best contender overall. It might not be the most fun game of the year, but the presentation and the production values are like nothing I have ever seen before. It truly did feel like a movie at times, and I mean that in the best possible way.
>>
>>345112608
Personally I think we should focus on Samus.

She massacred the entire Metroid species just so the Space Pirates couldn't use them, and then when a baby Metroid latched onto her thinking she was it's mother, she donated it to science slavery.

Basically, Samus committed Space Government-sanctioned genocide, and she's the hero.
>>

2016 isn't over yet, so this question makes no sense and you are retarded for asking.
>>
>>345113836
Then they should change his character to someone who isn't obnoxious.
>>
>>345099190
For the first semester of 2016, I'd say Blood and Wine or DSIII. I actually enjoyed myself more with Blood and Wine, but combat in DSIII was excellent.

However I won't consider these to be GOTY until I get my hands on Dishonored 2 and Deus Ex.
