The Aesthetic was created to respect the wishes of the Balinese tribe from where the story, art style and music derive from. Everything was signed off by the Tribe before release. The game was only made possible, with the high production values at least, because Sony financed it, so it probably would likely have been an isometric dungeon crawler and not a real time 3D adventure if not for Sony picking up the bill, they did the same with Stray too.

I found it pretty meh, i mean it looks great but for a game that revolves around movement, it plays a lot like Doom, as in it completely lacks fluidity, each movement technique is disjointed and often leaves you feeling as though your character is intentionally going slower than what they're clearly capable of doing. I mean, you can dash at supersonic speed but your sprint is about the same speed as a 5 year old on a tricycle.

Kena's a great game. It plays well and looks beautiful, plus it doesn't overstay its welcome. Definitely worth a shot.

Pathea (the studio behind the game) is still actively creating content for the game, updates regularly and is very involved with the fanbase via multiple social media platforms (like Discord for example).

Evil West is my top reason I'm glad I'm subbed to Gameranx, because it still is the only place (in my life) I've seen or heard it brought up, and I LOVED it. Anyone who's a fan of bad ass action and cheesy 80s style story & dialogue, should definitely check it out.

Chorus is such a good game. While the interactions between the protagonist and ship is a bit awkward, the combat and fast-paced action is so fun and the side quests have substance and are worth it.

I spent about 8 hours playing Evil West on Game Pass and I would definitely recommend it. Kind of like Bullet Storm mixed with a God of War. Levels are very linear but there is a lot of opportunity for mixing things up in combat: Combos, finishers, knocking enemies off cliffs, impaling them on the environment, blowing them up, hitting their weak spots, etc. I played it on hard difficulty and I think that is the way it was meant to be played.

If you liked kena, i HIGHLY recommend Asterigos. Its similar combat but with more weapons and gear choice. It also has an interconnected world, backtracking for secrets, and hidden side quests like dark souls!

If you play Kena Bridge of Spirits, it'll break your spirit with its difficulty, then smash your heart with the story, I think it's a crime that there's no sequel for this game, it's no joke of a game, I had an easier time fighting Elden Ring bosses than the bosses in this game (You can't cheese the bosses in this game), the first boss alone killed me so many times that I got hooked on the game so bad and ignored all of my other games to focus my muscle memory and reaction time, but the real challenge is to not cry or stop your heart from bleeding because of the story, it's right there with Mircale in Cell Number 7, Hachiko, and The Steve Irwin Story.

Unlocking the world is also satisfying… and the spirits that come with their own history and stories -- it’s almost like being in a dream that somehow continues across a couple nights. Kena is definitely my soul game -- it’s weird how it just makes you feel like a better person playing it.

Kena - not new, but must play, period. My time at Sandrock (first game of this genre I played) kept me engaged for far longer than I thought it would (about 300 hrs). Not just for the gameloop, but especially for the really good writing (dialogues etc). And yes, there are twistssss. Trine 5 - looks awesome, great co op as well. Metal Hellsinger - wouldn't even touch it with forceps, because thats def not my kind of music. Does Palworld count as a AAA game in your book, or why is it not included here? Other than that - good list, will check out some of these.

I've been playing Metal HellSinger since the Open Beta and I've loved it since my first go and it grew on me the more I played, so needless to say, I bought the Full Game the day it was released, and that year....It was my Game of the Year !! It's an Awesome, Fun and Fast-Paced Shooter that gets your heart rate up, once you've got the hang of it and understand all the mechanics of the weapons and damage buffs to help boost your score etc.....Which is the same with any new game, simply put-in a little time to practice and learn it and you'll see why people are loving this game !!

Man, it's been a while since I last played Kena. It was a surprise that I enjoyed it as much as I did, and it certainly ought to get a sequel or two. There's a _lot_ of potential in there for both the story and the developer. It would be a real joy to get to do more with that world. It's _impressively_ solid. Sure, it's got a couple of rough patches (control scheme is a little unintuitive, as I recall, which could create some fake difficulty) but they never really detracted from the experience all that much. Just enough to be noticeable in a "well, that's there" kind of way rather than controller-breakingly infuriating to deal with. It's pretty, the core ideas are really intriguing, and it really does draw you in in a way that's astonishingly kinda rare in modern gaming.

I really liked Kena, but I was very very dissapointed by Evil West. Ugly graphics, interrupted gameplay by jumping, gliding etc and overall not a fun gameplay loop. Gonna give Banishers a try when it's 50% discounted.

I only play AAAAA games.

Decent list, thanks. I recently beat Evil West and recommend it (it's also a little better using a controller than a m/k). Kena: Bridge of Spirits I kept getting confused as to what to do so I quit it, but it's a beautiful game, just may need a walkthrough at certain parts.

Love this. Please do more in the future. Really enjoyed Evil West and I’ve added Banishers to my wish list.

yeah ill pass on everything here

My Time at Sandrock is a lot of fun. If you enjoy it My Time at Portia is the first game and just as enjoyable. It's located in the same world but they have a different storyline. Kena is a very moving game and harder than it looks. I actually enjoyed learning all of the mechanics of the game. Shadow Gambit was so much fun. I love stealth games. Probably my favorite type. This was a new take on it for me. I love that you get a variety of characters to play as. Each with their own unique mechanics. Also, you're dead pirates with a talking magic ship that has a soul. Need I say more.

I actually backed Sandrock on Kickstarter because I loved My Time at Portia. I agree that it's one of those games you should definitely play to support the developers.

I like how you guys did the timeframes as number 1-10 instead of naming the game. Makes it more fun to watch 💜👍

Metal Hellsinger absolutely deserves first place here. I've sunken fifty or so hours into it and have managed to stay top 100 on some of the levels. It is an utter banger.

Agree with a lot of these and happy to see you guys put Kenna at spot 2, surprised its not talked about more. Its one of my favs

I’ve bought kena because of gameranx and i really enjoyed it. Played it on hard and it got really hard in several Boss fights. Gonna try some of these on The list, too. Thank you

Kena is just awesome. I was sold when the PSAccess team did a play through. The dev team does commercial animation (ads) and feature films and they’ve applied that talent to the game. The story is also pretty good - it’s rewarding to say the least, but there are certainly some tear-jerking moments.

Chorus is great, but you have to sit still for the story beats, it's easy to skip accidentally. I also appreciate the space setting that doesn't make you feel like you're lost in the void, each place is contained enough to keep from being too lost but open enough to have fun exploring.

Even sitting still didn't always work for me. I'd come to a stop to listen to the banter, then a random encounter would spawn, cutting it off. The gameplay was great, and I didn't mind the story as much as some. But I really wish it would stop interrupting the conversations! Or resume them after the encounter that just spawned is done.

This list had a lot of bangers on it. I added at least four of these to my wishlist, and even bought Evil West, since it's currently 65% off. Thanks!

Just a reminder that returnal is a AA game and is a complete masterpiece

Evil West. What a blast. Gow style, Arcade shooter. Loved it. Hope there is a sequel on the way.

Chorus is a gem,and one of the best flying combat space games i have ever played. its like a mature version of starfox and the special abiltys are amazing eg the drift lets you turn super fast and another lets you teliport behind the enemy ship. the whole game is skill based as there is no lock on. i have seen the devs advertise for new blood as it looks like they are going top make a sequal. and i am up for that big time.

@gameranx finally i see a vid where you talk about my time in sandrock and filled me in on it my time at portia is also really good also recomend Atom RPG

Shout out to Gunfire Games Remnant from the Ashes 1 and 2. (We dont talk about Chronos/Before the ashes other than its lore lol) One of my personal favorite shooter RPG's with fantastic build craft and variety of enemies. Cool lore too

The final act is awesome. More, there are FX in the background with crazy Hi-Def (like with explosions and smoke in the background IN FOCUS). It’s overall a lot better regarding cheap Marvel lo-res tricks. That said, plot is a tad derivative (what isn’t?) and pacing is slow in the 1st act (but with excellent flasbacks), just to go supersonic in the 3rd, all in good fun

tbh, i wasnt even aware of double aa games existing. i guess i was too busy enjoying indie titles and emulating my classics. however, they certainly look interesting.

The AAs have been more interesting than AAA big budget games lately. 4 worth considering are Kena, Stray, Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice and Plague Tale: Innocence. Those are the 4 that really made people start noticing the AAs, I think it's because the AAs with modern engines and tools can match the presentation of the AAAs while the devs can stick to creating their visions without interference, so a bit like indie devs. Plague Tale is also notable because that firm didn't use 3rd party tech like UE4/5 for their game but instead built their own in house engine from scratch, it'll be interesting to see how they progress, with their own engine they really could grow fast.

Pleasantly surprised how much I like Evil West and playing it on my OneXfly handheld is awesome!

yeah chorus! imo the only space game that does *everything* right. every other space game has at least one control/movement quirk that i cant get over. this one feels incredible. the drifting is sublime.

I think I first heard of Kena: Bridge of Spirits on this channel a year or so ago. Awesome game, honestly. I really wish we can get a sequel one of these days, but who knows. The animation and art design is straight outta Pixar or Dreamworks. Good recommendation.
