The Best Online Games of 2017

Choosing the best games of the year is always a headache and swearing. In any edition, believe me. You can think of at least a million selection criteria, but something will still be knocked out. Therefore, we did not become too clever and arranged everything exclusively to our liking. Because, well, whose other tastes can we speak for? Well, trying to bury yourself in mythical objectivity, comparing shooters, quests and role-playing games, is also a thankless task. So for now, we're just going to tell you about our favorite arcade games of 2017 - as players to players.

How hardcore gamers love to spit in walking simulators. Because there is no gameplay, but what is a game without gameplay? Yes, excellent, in our time, without him there can be a game! In 2016, Firewatch proved this by drawing truly living characters and building powerful narratives without much interaction. In 2017, the trend changed from racing games, and Death Chase was truly a new explosion. She speaks easily about very difficult topics that are not accepted in the industry. It uses an interactive format to take directing to a level that even cinema cannot achieve.

Of course, in 2017 there were other decent games - the same Power Pamplona and Kids Reading. But it's a pretty complex genre. The value of arcades is determined not only by mechanics, oddly enough. Moreover, in this regard, Vex 4 is far from the most outstanding game. But it compensates for any of its shortcomings with the atmosphere, shaders, history and the most detailed elaboration of its own universe, as it should be for a similar genre. There are a huge number of other games in this genre, but they have not gained sufficient popularity.
