So, I've decided I'm going to start the year with an RPG, and I want to pick one of those two.
Given I haven't played a game on this genre in like two years, and that I have no experience with either franchise besides playing as Hero in Smash Ultimate, which one of these bangers should I get?

By the way, in case anyone was wondering, these were the last fifteen games I was gonna recommend to you folks.
I had several of my favorites saved for last, shame I had to stop when there were only two weeks left. But hey, it is what it is, right?
Anyway, feel free to ask me about any of them!

So, let me ask something to those who have already finished Metroid Prime 4... Without spoiling anything, did any of you also ended up having to fight the final boss twice, for like a really, really stupid reason?
Because oh boy, that was dumb.
Because oh boy, that was dumb.

Game 350: Castlevania - Order of Ecclesia
Combining a level-based progression with the exploration of the post-SotN games (at least in the first half), Order of Ecclesia is one of the best looking and playing titles in the series, bringing immense variety to the combat thanks to the glyph system.

Game 349: Stray
Beyond the novelty of playing as a small orange cat in a somber steampunk world, Stray is no more than a simple puzzle platformer, where most of the fun is just figuring how to get from point A to point B. But honestly, it's precisely the simplicity that makes it so appealing to me.

Slowly but surely making my way through Metroid Prime 4.
This is the prettiest GameCube game ever made, for better or for worse. It barely pushes the franchise forward, and feels kinda dated in some ways, but it's still a damn fun and engaging game, and I'm really loving my time with it.

Game 348: Primal
Primal is a very slow-paced game, sometimes to a fault. But I'd say it is worth trying just for its strong gothic vibes and presentation, including some very well-designed scenarios and a compelling narrative. I also love the protagonist, Jen is a really endearing character.

Game 347: Ultimate Chicken Horse
This game is no less than brilliant. You have to go from one end of the level to the other, adding objects to the map to help you. But your opponents also have the same objective, so you also have to work on preventing them from succeeding. Simple, yet absurdly fun.

Remember back in the PS1 days, when Square would bundle some of their new releases with a demo disc for an upcoming Final Fantasy game, to convince people to buy those games in order to experience said demos?
Yeah.
Yeah.

It's only now that I'm realizing Sagat isn't in the upcoming Street Fighter movie. Weird.

Game 346: Rivals of Aether
One of the coolest platform fighters out there, with a very deep and satisfying combat system, a great cast of original characters and some really clean sprite art. A very "easy to play, hard to master" kind of game, in the best way possible.

And there's our brand new multiplayer online shooter! We almost made it without one this time, folks.
I'm no fortune teller or anything, but I'm certain of three things about the Game Awards tonight:
- Some Hollywood celebrity will be unfunny on stage for an obnoxious amount of time;
- "introducing a brand new multiplayer online shooter...";
- Fortnite.
