Xenosmilus. I wanted a name for my Charr character for the at-the-time upcoming MMO Guild Wars 2, so I did some research on tigers. I eventually read about the Xenosmilus, which is a subspecies of the Smilodon(saber-tooth tiger), and chose that. I've stuck with that as my screen name wherever possible ever since

I'm glad my GotY (Metro) actually made it to the top 10. I expected a lot of the games mentioned beforehand to have more points considering this community. I've loved the Metro video game series since playing 2033 back in the day. I do still think that the first game is my favorite in the series, but this game has added so many things that make this series even better. Love the story and characters. It's a nice mix of new and returning characters, so new players don't feel too out of the loop. Like the upgrade system, and how you can change your guns' properties on the go. It's nice that they don't flood you with crafting materials unless you want to grind for them, so I barely had ammo throughout the latter half of the game. I feel like all the other things I want to say involve spoilers, so I'll leave it at that.

Also, just recently finished Disco Elysium, and I wish I can revise my list lol. That game is amazing.

Same, I've heard quite a bit of good things about the series

I had, and still have, a lot of fun playing Borderlands 3. This is with the caveat that you're playing with friends though. I can play the game for hours with friends; but once they all log out, and I want to play some more, I get bored pretty quickly and log out soon after. It's just my personal preference that prevents me from doing so. I'm honestly not a fan of random stats to the guns, but when playing with others, it creates a sort of surprise fun aspect. There are some UI stuff that irritates me, and connectivity issues happen sometimes. I also preferred the story and characters of the 2nd game. Great QoL changes though. I still loved playing as Mordecai, but Zane is cool too.
