While Take-Two is riding high on their announcement that a GTA 6 trailer is coming, its CEO has some…interesting ideas on how much video games could cost, part of a contingent of executives that believe games are underpriced, given their cost, length or some combination of the two.

    Would you say bastion is the best supergiant title pre-Hades? I've been eyeing both that and transistor for a while

    I would. But I didn't play a lot of their games. Bastion is kind of unique. Story is pretty linear but its structure is quite a novelty. There's an awesome narrator that is telling the story, but he reacts to everything you do and has a snarky sense of humor. Game is well designed action RPG with a good variety of weapons and in my eyes very little replay value. Still worth the asking price though.

    I recently played Outer Wilds for the first time last week. Games like this, I always worry they're overhyped, but it was great.

    There's a lot of good games on this list, plus ones I've never played before, I should probably check some of them out.

    Ignore the pre-release hype (I mean hype before anyone gets to try the game, early access hype is good). If the game is hyped after people get to play it, then I find it's safer to trust, though personal preferences can still make it miss the mark.

    CrossCode! Why is this freaking game still such an underdog?
    Zero Sievert is also well worth mentioning.

    Yeah, CrossCode is absolutely amazing. I didn't hear about it until recently. I'm so glad I didn't completely miss out on it. It's like my number 1 favourite game now and I almost missed it.

    I like to make sure I bring it up anytime people ask about good games they may not have heard of.

    Literally my idea of the perfect game.

    Welcome to the CC simps, because you're certainly not the only one who does that. It's generally a no brainer considering that they also still offer a demo to just try it out. Of course that doesn't tell you much about the great story and characters, but I think the fluidity of the movement and combat system definitely can convince people over already.

    This list is utterly fantastic, but if you haven't given Dave The Diver a chance you definitely should. It's by far my favorite release from this year, and the devs seem to have even more content planned.
