Here it is, the Game of The Year 2015 poll. We are asking you which games you thought were the best games in 2015 and which games you are anticipating most, to play in 2016.

You can enter 3 games, which should be entered in the order you think were the best in 2015 and think will be the best in 2016.

We explored our database and ended up with over 90 games that were released in 2015. Some of them only have very few RPG elements, but where covered at RPGWatch anyway. So if you feel they should not be on the list, feel free to ignore that game. If you feel a game is missing on the list, you can always add that game manually.
The three games you look forward to most in 2016, will all have to be entered manually.

Enjoy!

More information.

90 games!?
With a possiblility some are missing?

Seriously, even if I was playing games 24/7 for the whole year I wouldn't be able to play all of them. :D

Voted:

Underrail: Impressive game for small team.Tribute to classics but it also stands on it's own

Pillars of eternity:Not as good as I expected but still excellent game

Thea:The awakening:Maybe not that good but very addictive game and I put lot of hours in it.

Tough to vote this time, so many titles to chose from and also "SOMA", was a game I really loved but don´t consider to be an rpg. It would have made top 3 in my "Best Adventure of 2015" list

Anyway, I went with Pillars, Witcher3 and Shadowrun:HK for 2015. For 2016, I choose Deus EX: MD, Baldur´s Gate: SoD and Torment: ToN, though both years were almost equally hard to pick for. (fortunatly so) ;-)

Choosing for 2016 was tough because I have a feeling that some of my choices will get pushed back to 2017. Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is #1 for me as well.

I put Divinity: Original Sin 2 and Mass Effect: Andromeda as my second and third choices. Both of those games have December release dates though so it's iffy that they'll actually get released this year.

Pillars of Eternities, Shadowrun:HK and Witcher 3 for best stuff of 2015. I much prefer party based games and I consider The Witcher 3 to be more adventure than a RPG (also outside main story stuff, included tied side quests, the game is a bit lackluster).

Can't wait for:
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided
Mass Effect Andromeda
Torment: Tides of Numeréna

---
Divinity Original Sin 2 as well, but I'm 99.9% sure it's going to get pushed to 2017.

Apparently I only played two games that came out in 2015 so I voted None for my third.

For future I pay almost zero attention to games until they come out so I voted None for all 3 as I don't know whats coming out when.

2015:

Underrail
Pillars of Eternity
Divinity: Original Sin

(pretty lame year, actually)

2016:

Dungeons of Aledorn
Torment: Tides of Numenera
Enderal: Shards of Order
 
2015: The Witcher 3, The Witcher 3, The Witcher 3 … yes, I voted for it 3x for all three spots. I haven't even played it yet but I just know it's that good! :biggrin:

2016: Divinity Original Sin 2, None, None.

D:OS 2 is the only one I'm looking forward to although, knowing Larian, I'm 100% sure it will slip well into 2017. I backed Torment but I'm no longer looking forward to it after what I've seen of it so far.
Deus Ex does not interest me as long as they have that horrible player character and Mass Effect Andromeda = huge bag of meh after how they concluded ME3. But if the (user) reviews fly through the roof, I might check it out when it is on sale one fine day (2018-ish).
