I love how quickly JP uploads the podcast to UA-cam
With chapters too
yes
Agree. Each week is like a Sunday cartoons in childhood
I love that I can choose what to listen with the chapters
y its ridiculous!
Glad you guys have had 10 years, hope you can get another 10. With the fickle nature of the internet and how quickly things come and go....10 years is great achievement!❤
It's been 9 years. It's 10th year starting, so next year will be 10 year anniversary.
@@guvkon ^ this
I mean, Baldur's Gate 3 being so close to winning 'Favorite New IP' doesn't surprise me.
Imagine how many versions of 'Lies of ..' there was before 'P'.
THIS HAS MADE MY WEEK. Thanks as always JP for remembering us guys that can't be there live. Wish you and your family another amazing year!!!
I say it every year, but it remains true so I'll say it again: Best Games of the Year show on the internet. The only games award show I look forward to each winter. Looking forward to the 2024 awards!
This is by far my favorite list crew. Three completely different gamers I recognize myself in depending on my mood and I can agree with everything on that list. Jp and Cohh are mostly like me, but Zeke is always interesting.
I have not watched a second yet but I fully expect Zeke to be told to wrap it up about 10-30 times during this episode. Cant wait, here we go
What a great episode! Can't believe its been 9 years in the can already! The last couple minutes of the show had me rollin!! See you all next week! 😀
Always a treat to watch these yearly shows, good luck and vibes to JP with the Fatalis struggles
Finally back to the regular episodes :D
Look forward to this video at the start of every year. The Cohh Best Feature jebait was perfect *chefs kiss*
I LOVE this show so much. Thank you guys for doing it every year. All of you bring your own perspective into your picks and it brings an amazing and broad selection for (almost) all the categories. I look forward to this show every year! Thank you!
So fucking glad to see Breakout 13 made it to Zeke’s top 10, Such a big surprise and I’m so happy to see, I still remember last year’s list we got Not for broadcast at 4 on the list, Glad to see Zeke still being the variety enjoyer
Ezekiel is a legend, I loved Talos Principle 2 so much, it's to TP1 what Portal 2 is to 1. Huge improvements fantastic story, UE5 graphics. Loved it.
YEEES holy shit it's such an amazing game! BG3 is still my favorite of the year, but fuck man TP2 is right beside it because it was just so good!
The creators of Serious Sam made Talos principle..blows my mind. A guy using a cannon to blow up headless dudes and a deeply philosophical puzzle game
@@BloodyBobJrAnother surprising thing is the people who made fall guys made hateful boyfriend, The pigeon dating simulator, I still am mind fucked learning about that
Great show as always, and thanks for another great year!
The whole show went great, I love the jokes and banter!
I'm glad to see the results for best performance - to avoid spoliers I'll keep it vague: a truly impressive voicing of a character comes around several times a year in games and the VAs doing that work deserve so much credit for it (credit to the writers where it's due), but it's really unusual for that character to be the entire world.
Also happy to see contraband police too Pog
one of my favorite shows every year! THank you so much!
Glad to be watching your content in 2024, dropped frames is one of the main channels I rely on for gaming news and entertainment. Love it.
Great show guys keep up the good work happy new years
I can't wait for the first proper show of the new year to hear all the great news now that 2023 is behind us.
To justify for the people who just clear voted BG3 for every category. A lot people don't have time to play the plethora of games that come out every year, they're still working through the backlog of games too, and BG3 is SUPER long for regular players, it might be one of the only large games people would play all year.
Fucking love Dropped frames. I've watched every episode (on youtube due to Timezones) Congratulations on 10 years!
Talos Prinicple 2 is amazing. Glad to see it get some love.
Happy new year!
Second year watching the GOTY podcast for Dropped frames. My favorite Game Awards show, sorry Keighley
happy 10 years of DF, 10 years more
ALWAYS love the DF GOTY year show, thanks for all the work you (and Barry!) put into it, JP!
Cohh's crazy, Pictomancer looks awesome
Remember this is a man that thinks Machinist is a well made job
I think his criticism is entirely valid. The spell animations they showed for pictomancer look like generic ass magic. The ice block is literally just a blizzard spell. There's just a beam of paint. I think the flashiness is dope, but the animations they showed? Like he said, zero creativity. I want to see the pictomancer draw things and it comes to life to do the attack. If I want a block of ice to hit my enemy i'll just play BLM. There's so much potential here and so far what they showcased is not taking advantage of it.
@@altairian8 Disagree
@@altairian8 and yet the ppl mostly having this take are the same ppl who say the art style is too distracting and doesn't mesh with the game, so the solution being offered is something that will then cause even MORE of that perceived dissonance?
It's very obviously a different aesthetic that just simply doesn't appeal to some, which is perfectly fine. They showed probably a quarter of its kit, ppl need to wait for the job action trailer to actually have an informed opinion. Hell the viper trailer was literally just basic attack animations and ppl creamed themselves over it too
Edit: Also the "beam of paint" is literally the moogle shooting a beam, you can see the model. It's kind of hard to claim it isn't creative when the action in whole is effectively draw-summoning a moogle to attack for you.
@@necroguy11 Not sure why you strawmanned me, I didn't say anything about the art style of it. I didn't catch the moogle shooting the beam, that definitely does improve it a bit. Hopefully the majority of the attacks are like that, where it's something drawn doing the attack, and not just a block of ice dropping on their head.
If Cohh is setting up his VR room for Asgard's Wrath 2, then he needs to play Into the Radius. Especially since he's such a big Stalker fan.
I always look forward to this show every year. You guys are awesome. :)
Cities Skylines II still feels like a really fun game, in spite of itself. I did make some graphical compromises but it's not a game that really needs it anyway.
It's ok JP, that was the first thing I noticed about Spider-Man 2 as well.
This year was a bit of a surprise. I thought Cohh was going to place Alan Wake higher based on how he talked about it.
I have to admit, I forgot Hogwart's was this year.
Here's to ten more you beautiful animals !!!
zeke's choice are always the wild cards and it is prob the best part of these GOTY shows
1:39:30 What happend to Shadow Gambit, was Cohh not interested at all?
yay!
Ahti for character of the year!
Damn, Talos Principle II is Zeke's favorite game of the year, but I can't find his playthrough anywhere, youtube or twitch. What happened to VOD? =(
You could probably find it on his twitch uploads section, It has like tons of VODs backed up since like 2022, Twitch automatically deleted VODs normally after 2 months or 60 days as partners, But you can upload it as a mod or a creator to save it permanently
Tried it. Nothing, unfortunately. :\
Only demo. Maybe he didn't stream it?
@@Umbra_6 Correct, he mentioned in a previous episode that he was playing it off stream.
BG3 was a surprise for the community? These people must have never played a Larion game before. After DOS2, I was 100% certain that BG3 was going to be incredible.
When JP said the only way he got through Alan Wake 2 is by playing at 10% volume, I just imagined him running away from monsters with Running Up That Hill by Kate Bush blasting at 100% volume xD
That's correct.
I've had BG games on my backlog for ages but only recently finished BG1 and I'm currently 40-ish hours into BG2 for the first time, and it's GREAT!
Once you get immersed in the superb writing and quests and roleplaying, nothing else matters and it's smooth sailing!
EDIT: Here's a hot take... Being into PRGs but not liking reading, to me, kinda sounds like being into cars, but not enjoying driving :)
The one frame of JP in the intro
such a shame that Remnant 2 did not make it on any sort of list tbh.
Glad to be here for all these years, can’t wait for next year’s list
Nice to see Talos get props. I still prefer Talos 1 over 2, but it is a great game.
for the community vote: is there an option were i can see what i voted?
i don't remember.
on steam there is 'community voted X, you voted Y'.
would be cool if there was an option in the future.
I adore Owlcat games. But my rule of thumb is wait until Cohh finishes his play through before I start my own. That month or two wait means I'm not watching him stream it either in order to avoid spoilers, but that's what the YT play list for. In that time, Owlcat will patch and paint a lot of the most glaring issues.
Good lists and winners all around. God help you guys when the community still writes in BG3 for all the awards next year
Sad that chained echoes didn't make Cohh's list, I remember him playing it last January and saying it would've been his GOTY for 2022 had he played it that year
It couldn't, it came out in december 2022.
regarding meta gear solid revengence..
RIP TotalBiscuit ❤❤❤
Damn, I missed cohh playing yakuza, now I know what to do (since I dont have time to play it)
When are you guys gonna have Karak from acg reviews on, would be a sick crossover!
The biggest surprise was how bad BG 3's act 3 was lol
-I would argue that the popularity of unfinished and bad games for streamers will always invite developers to make such games. We perpetuate the problem.
I wonder how long it's going to take for someone to take that AI text to speech program and have it learn what is already there in RogueTrader and fill in the rest of the lines as a mod.
Sad that I miss watching it live, Would have loved to see the chat and the reactions, But we always will have next year
Cohh never finished AC6 right?
Agree that Kiryu having a good happy ugly cry was such a great powerful moment.
Aware it’s been years since I first watched the first dropped frames episode which was the they are billions episode
Wait... Seananners??? I thought he quit youtube!!!
54.22 They should've used a different spelling in every frame. Oh well, missed opportunities.
Pog
Balding taint is my game of the year for sure
I think a lot of the things that made BG 3 so accessible to the mainstream are the things that made me not like it as much, but then again I didn't really love the Original Sin games either or am a big supporter of turn-based (especially if they use a dnd system the way BG 3 did). I could write an essay about what the problems of BG 3 are, but instead will just hope that Larian's next game will be even more to my liking. Overall I prefer Dragon Age 1 and 3, the Mass Effect trilogy or Witcher 3 in terms of an immersive RPG experience and the writing of something like Kotor 2 is just on a different level compared to BG 3. But if it all means we get more RPGs in the future, I'm on board. And Larian is a great company, so I applaud them in any case.
Writing in Kotor 2 was pure unfinished 💩
Hope that Larian will ignore such peeps like you and do what they do best - we don't need them making anything as worthless as DA Inquisition or ME3 LMAO
@@marcuskane1040 You are entitled to your (wrong) opinions, but I doubt you even know what writing means in regards to games if you call Chris Avellone's work poop. :)
But I suppose that is something BG 3 and Kotor 2 have in common, the last act being unfinished/rushed and all.
feel like they wanted to avoid BG3 at all costs. Other then Zeke, hes always the outlier and loves it.
These are the alan wake 2 awards 😂
Hi-Fi Rush not making either Cohh or Zeke's top 10 is understandable given neither continued playing beyond the first level, but not even making the community top 10 is really just disappointing.
Edit: Zeke did play through the whole game as well.
Actually Zeke did complete Hi-Fi rush and he did enjoyed it, But JP definitely liked it the most out of the crew
Thank you for correcting me on that, I thought only JP finished the game.@@Justin-ee1mv
Game I wish I had played: Final Fantasy 16. Exclusives screw over customers.
Wow.. Im amased that a game that has been the goty for so many people, sold incredibly well, got the best indie game and independent game awards, and has been called the best 2D turn-based rpg since Chrono Trigger didn't make a single goddamn list on this show (except that one wanted to play it more..).
It's just equally as mind-boggling and disapointing.
Thanx for the show though. Even though this year was disapointing, its always entertaining to watch these every year.
Last time I commented on this somebody was really offended by the fact I got there before them... what are the chances I get berated in a comment twice in a row I wonder?
Thank you for not playing Among Us 2 again
I really like it when JP played it
Among us 2?
Should really change the title of the top 3 games streamed. make it sound like there top 3 games that have the most hours in. I mean it's obvious if it was Cohhs number 1 would be rogue trade at close to 100 hours. Though, wow classic was pretty high up there since he played that for like a month+ but no way did one human have mroe hours played in it then rogue trader.
Agreed - Something like "Top 3 games we played on streams".
Not sure how Cohhs most anticipated game of 202 is stalker 2 when he barely even talks about it + he has said in the past few videos I've seen him in from a few weeks ago that his most anticipated game this year was yakuza 8 with FF7RP2 in close 2nd. lol
If his most anticipated game being Stalker 2 came as a surprise to you, you probably haven't followed him for that long. He's done at least 4 playthroughs of the franchise on stream. Even the "spinoff" series, Metro, was his #1 game of the year a couple of years ago when the newest one launched.
I've been following himn since 2018 just after he played P5. and to honest? sure he mentions the stalker series a lot but not nearly enough as he does yakuza series. I haven't hear him mention stalker 2 lately in the past like quite a while. yet mentions yakuza 8 at LEAST once a day.@@mikaeleriksen2994
My friend Cohh literally named one of his cat cause of stalker, Cohh also has stated that stalker and it’s style and setting it’s one his favorites, As mentioned by the other commenter above Cohh has done like 4 play throughs and if you looked at Cohh’s reaction when Stalker 2 is announced, he was excited as fuck as well as being well versed in the stuff being shown as well
Not even a single fuckign yakuza 6.5 on thsi top 10 list? especially from Cohh? lol who's number one almsot every year since he started yakuzas has been either yakuza in the top 5 or judgments in the top 5. weird to see one of if not the best game this year not even on ANY of there lists.
Venba was boring af, it just got love for representation. Not that there's anything wrong with that, just saying you're not missing anything.
this is like old men trying to be hip and cool
👴🏻
this is like a pointless internet comment
We are all getting old mate Aware
bro placed a mobile game on top 10 just a for a shock factor
