Re: RM's Best Video Game of 2020
I felt that The Last of Us 2 was the best game that I played in 2020 - an excellent linear game that featured some of the best storytelling ever. It featured very mature themes, some say to a fault. For once, enjoyed my time listening to Future Days too.
Currently, I'm enjoying my time playing Immortals: Fenyx Rising more than my time with any other game this year. A Zelda clone, sure, but a great clone of what many, myself included, consider to be the greatest game of all time in BotW.
My vote goes to Animal Crossing. A life simulator that was released just as real life went to hell. Can't socialize with real friends - you can socialize with your islanders. Can't goto work - work on your island. Fishing, collecting insects and digging up fossils was the most structured activity in my life for a while. No wonder this became the #1 selling Switch game in just a few months - this life simulator was more enjoyable than just about everyone's real life. A much needed escape for sure.

Re: RM's Best Video Game of 2020
I agree hands down with all the praise of The Last of Us II, especially the part about Future Days. It's my #1 this year for sure that I still regret spoiling for myself.
I haven't played Cyberpunk yet, and although it's release controversies were inexcusable, I still think there's probably a great/decent game wrapped up in a pile of unfinished shit. I'm holding out for the next gen version of that game to experience for the first time.

Re: RM's Best Video Game of 2020
I cannot in good conscience vote, but I do know Demon's Souls is a truly jaw-dropping next-gen experience, which none of the other games are, unless Tsushima is as pretty as they say. Edit: Whoops, I meant to say, because I have only played a couple of the games on the list, ...

Re: RM's Best Video Game of 2020
Only game I've played was Animal Crossing. You're welcome for my vote putting it over the top.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?
