Poll: Now the drought is almost over, what 2015 games are you excited for?

[bliebblob]

Let's see here...

Alleged 2015 releases:
Duelyst
Mordheim: city of the damned
Darkest dungeon
No man's sky? Apparently? According to others in this thread? I certainly wouldn't complain.

Definite (afaik) 2015 releases:
Armello
Blood bowl 2 (in large part due to the inevitable polaris rumble 2.0)
Satellite reign
Shadowrun: hong kong
And of course the big one: XCOM 2

You may notice a genre theme here, but I assure you my full wishlist is much more varied. Q3/4 of 2015 just happens to be the time to release tactics stuff apparently.

Persona 5 has me fucking stoked.

I've also been waiting what feels like a century for Fallout 4. I've avoided news so far, and I intend to keep it that way. It's going to be a good, good year.

 

[ThreeName]

XCOM 2 is really the only one I'm excited for. I don't really have expectations for MGS but I'll give it a go and see how I like it.

Bethesda's writing is so goddamn terrible I can't work up any enthusiasm for Fallout 4.

 

[Poetic Nova]

Rather 2016 but Battleborn is on my radar, but I will only buy it after I've seen reviews.
Maybe Mad Max, but games around mostly vehicles easily lose my attention.

 

[Sigmund Av Volsung]

MGSV, Persona 5 and Just Cause 3.

I'll try to finish MGS III before V releases, and see if I could get a used PS3 for P5. JC3 just looks like more of Just Cause 2, so yeah.

"Excitement" for me is games that do good enough. It'd be hard to fuck up any of the above. Everything else getting released doesn't...fill me with any confidence.

There's also Homefront The Revolution, but I'll need to see some more gameplay to get a good enough grasp on it.

 

[New Frontiersman]

Xenoblade Chronicles X

Xenoblade Chronicles X

Pretty much this. I'm super hyped for Xenoblade Chronicles X! I really wish I didn't have to wait so long.

Of the choices in the poll though, I'd say Super Mario Maker looks pretty interesting.

 

[Silvanus]

Of the choices in the poll though, I'd say Super Mario Maker looks pretty interesting.

I got to play Super Mario Maker at Hyper Japan not long ago. Was pretty fun, particularly trying the community's "hardest" levels leaderboards.

 

[Windcaler]

There are only 2 games Im excited about for the rest of the year. 1. Shadowrun Hong kong. 2. Fallout 4

Shadowrun made my best game of the year list 2 years ago and continues to be one of my favorite games to date due to the active modding community that creatres content and stories. Shadowrun Dragonfall was also in my top 5 games of the year list last year. Shadowrun hong kong is something that just says its going to be just as good, if not better, then the previous 2 stories done by Harebrained schemes

Fallout 4...well its fallout 4. I loved fallout 3 (new vegas was enjoyable though not as good IMO) and it remains number 8 on my best games of all time list. I cant wait to see what they do with the wasteland again

 

[[Kira Must Die]]

Fallout 4 and.... Fallout 4.

Yeah, not much else the rest of the year that interests me. I never played a Metal Gear game (Besides Revengeance,) so while MGSV looks cool I don't think I'll be getting it anytime soon. I hope the Mad Max game turns out good, though. Persona 5 I'm certainly excited for, but I don't know if it'll end up coming this year.

 

[DOOM GUY]

Metal Gear Solid V!!!

Metal Gear is probably my favorite series anyway, but The Phantom Pain looks absolutely amazing, totes one of the best games in a long time.

XCOM 2 and Armikrog also look nice, and I'm probably also gonna pick up Senran Kagura: Estival Versus, and maybe Project Mirai DX as well.

 

[Gordon_4_v1legacy]

I don't think Rise of the Tomb Raider is coming to PC until next year, unless I mis-remembered the details on that deal, so out of the choices above I can only choose Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain.

 

[stroopwafel]

MGS5 for me as well. I still feel the excitement that predates the release of a new MGS game, simply by how cool and amazing Phantom Pain looks. And this game is just around the corner.

Other than that I'm quite excited for Fallout 4. Really enjoyed the previous game(despite the bugs and performance issues) and I have no doubt FO4 will be an improvement in every way.

 

[SmallHatLogan]

Danganronpa Another Episode: Ultra Despair Girls, Dragon Ball Z: Extreme Butoden, and Salt and Sanctuary are the only ones that really spring to mind. There are also a few Vita ports of games that are supposed to be released this year but have no release dates. Mainly Axiom Verge, Not a Hero and Bastion.

As for the options in the poll. I don't know. Mario Maker will probably be pretty cool. Fallout 4 too, although I don't have a PC that can run it. I do plan on buying a good PC sometime though. Maybe when I see how much tax I get back.

 

[Scarim Coral]

Given to my computer hardware limitation and my console selection, I only got a few.

It's mainly Fire Emblem: Fates and Dragon Quest VIII for the 3DS and those upcoming kickstarter games like Starr Mazer, Hyper Light Drifter and Death's Gambit.

 

[duwenbasden]

a. The Overseer
b. The Overseer
c. The Overseer
d. The Overseer

 

[kasperbbs]

Fallout 4 is the only game i'm really looking forward to. And i'll probably pick up tomb rider whenever/if it decides to release the PC version.

 

[Foolery]

I don't get this whole 'drought' thing either. There's far too many good titles being released, or at least a solid handful of ones that are very engaging and stuffed with content. How do people burn through games that fast? I'm still playing Witcher 3. Anyway, Fallout 4. Also Xenoblade X, Star Fox Zero, Pokken Tournament, MGS:V, and Street Fighter V.

 

[EHKOS]

One Piece Pirate Warriors 3. Although I'm going to have to play it on my laptop since the Vita gets a release date but the PS3 version is still up in the air.

And of course Fallout 4, although I doubt I can run it.

A drought of releases, not really of content. There's been so much damn stuff this year to play that the typical July/August drought wasn't really there. I'm still playing Witcher 3 (not even found Ciri yet!) and I haven't even got to Level 20 in Splatoon.

 

[babinro]

Those are a lot of big names listed but I can't say I'm actually hyped about any of them.

Voted Other:

StarCraft 2: Legacy of the Void
Really looking forward to playing through the campaign and going for it's more challenging achievements as alternate means of beating the stages. I'm not into the multiplayer aspect of this franchise but as far as RTS campaigns are concerned, SC2 has knocked it out of the park.

Rock Band 4
I can't afford to buy the console or new equipment for this game alone so I won't actually be playing it. That said, Rock Band 1-3 make up my all time favorite game ever. I'm psyched to see this franchise return and hope to one day get my hands on it a few years from now.

Darkest Dungeon
I've heard magnificent things about this game and look forward to it's official launch this year.
