I’m aware that the Fable series comes with a bit of a stigma of disappointment thanks to Peter Mollenuex’s propensity for overpromising and underdelivering, but since I wasn’t exposed to any of that, it didn’t affect my experience in the slightest.

I finally got around to finding a PC version of the game, and I had a great time with it. This is a game that I’ve wanted to get into for a long time. Technically, players can keep going infinitely, but personally, I found the credits rolled at just the right point in the game, and I was satisfied to leave it there, which is something not many games like this can manage. This tale of lovers forced apart is one of those bittersweet things that hits you in just the right way to stay with you for a while after the game is over. It’s fairly simple, but life-sim games don’t need huge & complex plots to be memorable. The game’s story and atmosphere were nice and warm too. Even with such a limited inventory, it was always a great thrill to come home with many new slimes and things to feed them. Its map isn’t particularly huge, but it carefully staggers the rate at which you can explore it to ensure you’ll always be working toward something.

All they really need to do is have a strong sense of theme and enough explorative elements to stop things from getting too repetitive. This kind of game has had its formula perfected by this point, so new games don’t necessarily need to do much innovation to be great. Interestingly, I was partly convinced I’d already played Slime Rancher at some point, but it turns out I didn’t even own it until this January, so I immediately jumped on it. Platforms: PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Windows, Mac, Linux As usual, I’ll be updating my 100 Favourite Games list throughout this piece, stating the ranking I’d give to any game I felt deserved a spot. However, that just means there’s been more time for me to play some of the games from previous years that passed me by, and I played some really great ones this time around.Īs in, I got a new favourite game of all time this year…but we’ll talk about that in a bit. I mean, the reasons why are fairly apparent, but still. That’s not to say there haven’t been any good ones, but the list of major releases this year felt pretty lacking compared to the past few. Obligatory reminder that “Old” in this context just means “released before 2021”.Ģ021 hasn’t been a fantastic year for games, on the whole.
