DAI's ending was (too late?) giving Mass Effect fans what they deserved.
Sadly, the game is full of annoying filler and if majority believes the best of the best is a game full of grinding and not a game where annoyances are rare, so be it.
Wasteland 2 is fun, I admit. I'm currently on it, didn't finish it yet, wouldn't object if it gets goty here although I didn't put my vote on it (voted for two deliberately ignored and definetly underrated titles instead).

Anyway the game is my pick this year as it brought me back to the early years of when I played my first Isometric RPG game on the PC in the 90's.
I got mine last month and If I recall if you didnt recieve yours yet it might be due to a bad address in you ranger account on the games website.
Thanks for the reply sea as I know we didn't always get along when I started as a news-editor on RPGWatch. Give my congratulations to the rest of your team.This year was a great one for RPGs, I won't be too upset if you guys don't pick us.
Just tell them to make sure Torment doesn't get delayed again.
Mine came in the mail today. I got the signed edition with all the medals and patches. Think I will play it when the next patch comes out this month. Think they are adding some content with this next patch.
Wasteland 2 definitely deserves the award for most overrated game of the year.
I'm really starting to doubt wether ppl that backed a project through kickstarter can be objective about the end result, and I'd really like to know if the journalists, that awarded and positively reviewed WL2, backed it.
I love the setting and genre of WL2 and yet it was the least engaging game ever, feeling less like a game and more like a chore.
It had horrible dialogue and yet got praised for it's great writing.
I really don't get it.

Well I don't agree with you but your entitled to your opinion. To me it' s one of the best games released last year with Original Sin. I understand others don't think so.

Wasteland 2 was good, but it's really too bad that I "burned out" on gaming as a whole only 20 hours into the game. And no, it wasn't W2's fault, it was the fact that I needed a change of pace in hobby-land, so I had to try something new. The game itself was good but I definitely need to re-play it later on and see more of it.
I liked how the skills worked and the character development. It really felt like you could craft a unique party with a lot of useful skills. After some hours, the ragtag band of Rangers really started to grow on me, even though I don't recall much dialog from the various party members (their tactics in battle and their stats "personality" still endeared me to them ).

).Well you say that it wasn't WL2's fault but I also experienced general gaming burnout while playing WL2, and it went away after I stopped playing it.
And we're not the only ones to have experienced this.
I think it's because in WL2 the player has too little control over his succes in the game, a lot of it is decided by factors the player can't control or factors that are unknown to the player.
