I feel bad for players who bought it and then sadly got in their ship and realized you can't take off. That has to suck. Getting pumped to just immerse yourself in space and just flying and you can even properly explore like you want. Hopefully we get a single player game like NMS with a story and RPG mechanics

It had to be in Armor Core 6 on the ice worm mission for the first time when Rusty shoots the rail cannon, and all the sound starts to cut out for the perfect shot. Gives me chills playing that mission!

In Jedi Survivor, the boss fight with Cere made my jaw DROP.

A very happy newyear Falcon, Jake and the whole team!!! Thanks for every video this year!

A few moments from my gaming year. Realizing that Tears of the Kingdom had three maps, not just one, to explore. And in Octopath Traveler 2, the final act where you face the final boss. In the second phase of the fight, you battle the boss with all eight travelers, and it is just the coolest feeling ever.

Fighting Titan made me go "damn this is cool" but fighting Bahamut really made me go "Holy Shit this game is awesome!" Lol the pure spectacle of going into the upper atmosphere to fight was just hella crazy lol

Titan was actually my least favorite fight in the game. But the random of shit were dealing with Bahumat moment was fantastic.

For the Alan Wake 2 point... "why the F is this happening?" Is exactly what I thought when the rock opera started. I was so confused but also very amused.

@TheFreshSoundsFlorida it definitely does. It's still fun, but I'd agree if you said it doesn't really belong in the game. Tbh I do have a lot of complaints about Alan Wake 2, but I still love it for what it is. It SHOULD have been better but it's still a good game.

It’s there because it was Alan’s idea of reminding himself who he was since he’s been stuck in The Dark Place for so long that he was forgetting himself. It’s also a reflection of his inflated ego and how it got him there in the first place.

A very happy new year to Falcon, Jake, Boston and everyone at Gameranx. You guys have made my years better for a few years now. Love from India.

That AW2 level was pretty good, but there is another crazy scene late in the game with the Old Gods of Asgard playing a live show while you fight that I think tops it. While playing it, I was literally thinking how I've never played anything quite like this and how freaking awesome it is.

Glad to see Ghostrunner 2 getting some well-deserved recognition. It is one of the best games of 2023 and one of my top 3 games of the year. Speaking of which, the first Ghostrunner is available for free on Epic right now. Can't recommend it enough.

Happy New Year, Gameranx!

The betray songbird quests are awesome in phantom liberty. You first start by shooting your way through Kurt’s forces and even killing him, then you have to hide from a spider robot in order to find her memories. I love the story and if tga had a best dlc this would take the award

I just went thru this today and the robot spider part is tense. Haven’t had DLC that I have enjoyed that much since Witcher 3 and ME2/3.

The whole Alan Wake 2 was f*cking awesome (especially with the NG+), I can't wait to play the DLCs ❤. But Star Wars was awesome too, I also liked that game. Happy new year to everyone 🙂. I hope we will get great games in 2024 too.

Lizzy wizzy's performance in cyberpunk phantom liberty definitely deserves a place. I mean it's not a holy crap moment but definitely a WOW moment to me. Great video thanks and happy new year 🎊❤

The venom mechanic should be the next big thing. It would be quite fun in games to control the bosses in a scene before a boss battle. Not only would it give you ideas how to fight them, but if done right make them all the more intimidating too.

Surprises not to see GoW Valhalla on here. The moment the old school enemies came in and when you got the Blade of Olympus blew my mind. Hopefully it's a sign a a trilogy remake

The Ice Worm fight in AC6 really deserves a mention.

Happy New Year 🎆 to Falcon and Jake!! Thank you to all the Gameranx staff for another year of great entertainment and news in the great world of video games.

Happy new year, Falcon! Thank you for everything you do on this channel!

What was surprising about Venom was that we got more Mary Jane than venom 😂😂😂

My favorite thing about sea of stars is how the music and menus change to reflect the new setting as well. It's honestly epic

that sea of stars one is insane

In Armored Core 6, finding out AllMind had selected Iguazu to pilot the finalized form of all the "arena tester ACs" 621 had to fight through.

@wr5488

5 ай бұрын

DAMN there were some great moments scattered about. Wasn’t a huge fan of the game the first run but damn the finale of the 2nd and entire 3rd were great. Teaming up with Rusty and the reveal of Iguazu were so good! The Iguazu thing had me thinking really hard. Because right before the reveal we can learn there’s one other mystery pilot AND someone told Iguazu where to find and ambush you during Snail fight. I figured out that ONLY Ayre and Allmind would know at that point, so I kinda guessed it would be Allmind. That being said, the final fight caught me off guard. Really fun fight too. I love how his mech is strong as hell but not really piloted that well. Like in the final phase he’s gonna annihilate your health but he’s kinda easy to evade. Made it seem like the last ditch efforts of a guy that’s going down. Whole 3rd run was really smartly done.

It’d be cool to see you guys do a video similar to this on epic music moments (if haven’t done already). Like that climb in Returnal to get to that boss playing the organ as the music slowly gets louder ad more intense is just 🔥

Horizon's Horus fight is the one thing that gave me the spark I needed to run mega huge monsters in my D&D game. Before, I was always hesitant to bring in truly enormous titanic enemies for my higher leveled games, because even though you have a legendary sword that's not going to do squat against Godzilla if his outer carapace is like 100 feet thick, but that fight scene gave me the ideas I needed. Instead of the giant beast squaring up against the players, it is wading through the set piece, each time its turn comes around the entire battlefield changes, every one of its titanic steps are sending shockwaves across the land, opening ravines and fissures in the ground itself, and the player characters will have to keep pace somehow. Instead of hacking numbly at the beast's stone-like skin, the player characters are rolling to hit weak spots in the creature's skin, sites of old wounds, ancient weaponry stuck in its carapace from a long forgotten era, the gaps between its armor plates where its titanic blood vessels carry the nutrients to repair its body. Eventually, the characters must find a way inside the monster, where instead of facing the monster as a whole they are facing the monster's immune system, the parasites or symbiotic organisms that live within the beast, that seeks to either block the characters' way or are just seizing an opportunity. The more time the characters takes fighting off the immune system, the more defenders the immune system sends, until eventually the trillions of immune cells would overwhelm them, so they must work fast, killing just the ones in their way and making their way deeper into the creature's system, until they can take out the creature's core, or cores, such as its heart's pace-making nerve bundle, its brainstem's connection to the spine, the central part of its brain that regulates all muscle movements, and so on. Of course, the insides of the creature itself is an alien and hostile environment, with blood rushing with the force of a tsunami, and body temperature soaring to such a degree that even stone starts to melt. I ran this game with my most experienced player group using their level 18-20 characters, and four out of seven died by the end, though they did slay the beast, and they tell me that it's one of the best high-level games they've played. Oh yeah and for context, the monster in question measured 3 miles from nose to tail, and stood nearly 1000 feet at the shoulders, so not anything that's normally found in D&D games.

Building size? There are structures in the first part of the Titan fight that show Ifrit is building sized. Titan Lost is basically fighting a mountain. Great video!

Happy New Year to everyone here and thank you Falcon for all the great and informative Videos.

Happy new year Gameranx I m looking forward to your content this year

Falcon is the most immaculate and gentlemanly talking bird on youtube

One thing they could’ve done in Spider Man 2 is the good and Bad ending like they did in Web Of Shadows, plus you get to pick which character to play as like in Transformers FoC

I haven't played or even looked at any new Spider-Man games until I'm able to play them but damn, Venom looks brutal.

Awesome, video! Thanks, Falcon

I really like the mortal Kombat 1 twist of Kuai Liang being Scorpion like seriously loved it Kuai and scorpion were my 2 favorite characters so them being one and the same blew my mind

Fighting Titan in FF16 left like watching a hyped up dbz fight. It just kept getting crazier and it was great.

Man I tell you, Falcon and Gameranx are my intro to games I may likely have never given a glance to. Ironically, those titles I've tried may be deemed old in "year" standards, but are new to me in terms of introduction.

I would have personally chosen Cals darkside segment over the mech fight. Seeing him embrace it then go nuts and slaughter all those troopers was crazy

I can truly appreciate this list

I would definitely include the Light Dragon in TOTK, once I finished that questline and realized the insane scope of time that had passed after the decision, I just almost felt sick.....like, just fuckin traumatized for a minute, lmao

Happy new year Gameranx!

Happy to see Sea of Stars on here. It was such a short sequence, but my jaw was open the whole time. Totally mindblowing.

Getting rid of your troops to replace them with demons and cultists or just only to resurrect them as eternally loyal, undead soldiers as a demon/lich respectively in WotR.

7:12 HOOOOLEEEE SHIIII! THAT was cool!! 😂❤

I would add the first time you turn from a HUMAN to a GOD in Asgard’s Wrath II on Quest 3. The perspective shifts so radically from the first person ground level to a God looking over the entire level, it’s incredible. And I love how you can still see your human form so tiny down below. It’s impressive use of VR in the best way.

Titan Lost isn't a "building-sized" monster, he's a Mt. Everest-sized monster. 😁

I love these countdown videos. This one deserves it's place at the end of the year. Great job.

Merry Christmas 🎉 Thanks for all the amusing videos you guys uploaded keep it up!

My only gripe is Allen wake should have been number 4 and FF16 number one. Other than that I agree with your list 100%

I would have thought Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty would had made the list, but good choices either way.

Mortal Kombat 1 has a multiverse... Hurray, my time machine works, it's 2015!

The Final Fantasy boss foght reminded me of Asura's Wrath. In fact, that makes me want to play it again.

THANK YOU GAMERANX FOR 2023

IBIS from Armored Core 6 was a pretty "oh SH*T" moment

Gameranx last video of 2023? Happy new years yall 🍻 and heres to the next one

Damn it was a good year, Robocop was the surprise hit for me,FF16 was a return to form/status for Square and solid Indy hits (sea of stars) and new classics (Mario wonders), not even mentioning awesome stuff I didn’t have the time for (Zelda TotK/Baldurs Gate)… what a year.

i just wanna say, props to falcon for going to the effort of figuring out exactly what type of vehicle it is in #7. star wars fans appreciate this immensly

happy new year Gameranx... I've ordered the pizza, sending you the bill 😍

My honorable mentions: in Assasin's Creed Odyssey when you're on the starting island, you're not particularly impressed with the size but it's decent, and I spent a good 20 hours doing side quests and exploring before I decided to continue the story, just to have the map open up into an entire world, probably one of it not the biggest maps I've ever played in a game. Days Gone, similar situation. I played idk how many hours, and when I took the trek up to the snowy mountains I thought the story was pretty much wrapping up and he was going to ride off into the sunset (maybe I just didn't pay attention to the story as closely as I thought I did). NOPE. Turned around and slapped me with a whole nother map. I was only halfway through the game. Literally half the map had been blocked off. I had no idea this was coming as there was no greyed out area or indication that there was more because the map just ended at the borders. These may not be mind blowing to most people, but they were for me at the times of playing them.

For me a big moment was reaching the capital in Elden Ring and the map suddenly expanding even more. It blew my mind

@tigershrimp9025

Same, when you get transported there, and check the map and it's all greyed out, and you're like "where the hell am I?" and then you zoom out and realize how far you are from where you were. Excellent game design. Really made you put in the effort to unlock the rest of the map and explore.

That ending 😑👌 on point

13:56 "a building sized monster" lmao

So happy to see Sea of Stars on here. Got it for free on PlayStation and played it all the way through in like three or four days. Super fun.

For me, this year nothing beats when you finally fight Raphael in Baldurs Gate 3 when you heist his mansion in Hell. He suddenly starts singing DURING his own boss battle like a god damn Disney villain and it's glorious. It's also great that it's an actual hard fight at a point in the game when you are high level and can usually just brute force most things

happy new year! beers and peers brother

Getting chased (and eventually caught) by the spider robot in Phantom Liberty if you betray Songbird.

I’ve gotta had it to Remedy they went so absurdly over the top with Alan Wake II and I’m all for it. Herald of Darkness would be out of place anywhere else, but perfectly fits in a Remedy game.

Happy new year to everyone in the comments and everyone at gameranx

The bank heist makes me chuckle quite a bit actually. Like just imagine if the cops hadn't shown up and they got away with the cash, but then because there's so many of them after the split they each get like 2500$ or something ridiculous :P

Thank you for acknowledging the Horus. It was truly amazing. Honorable mention to GoWR Valhalla when Kratos conjures the Blade of Olympus. Truly hype shit. I was like "lets gooooooo!!" when I got to control Venom.
