AggroChat #554 – Games of the Year Show 2025 – Part Two

January 25, 2026 by Belghast

Featuring: Ace, Ammosart, Ashgar, Belghast, Kodra, Tamrielo, and Thalen

Hey Folks! We are back in full force and continuing our adventure through the second part of the Games of the Year 2025 podcast. We cut the list in half, giving us fifteen games that we were talking about in each episode. This is not necessarily a numerical list, but the titles that appear later in the shows did get more votes. It was a great year for gaming, but also a year where we were constantly getting distracted by the next big thing coming down the pipe. While we played a lot of games… we did not necessarily FINISH a lot of games.

Topics Discussed:

Fantasy Life – The Girl Who Steals Time
Chess.Com
Guild Wars Reforged
Cauldron
Ghost of Yotei
Dune Awakening
Atelier Resleriana The Red Alchemist & The White Guardian
Deltarune Chapters 3-4
Wanderstop
Where Winds Meet
Path of Exile Legacy of Phrecia
Split Fiction
Hades II
Blue Prince
Silksong

June 15, 2025 by Belghast

Featuring: AmmosArt, Ashgar, Belghast, Grace, Kodra, Tamrielo, and Thalen

Hey Folks! We have the full crew this week, and Kodra and Thalen have made their way into Dune Awakening, so we talk a bit more about that game. Bel asks what the dumbest thing we have done in a video game to make currency. Ash is back in Guild Wars 2 and attempting to catch up on the story. Kodra and Tam share their thoughts about the Microsoft PuzzleHunt event and contrast it with the MIT Mystery Hunt. Bel shares his early experiences with the Mercenaries of Trarthus as the Secrets of the Atlas expansion kicks off in Path of Exile. Grace talks a bit about Be My Horde as it lets you play a Necromancer, raising an army in a Vampire-Survivors-like game. Finally, we talk a bit about Deltarune actually getting a proper release and Toby Fox accepting money for the game.

Topics Discussed:

Kodra and Thalen Join Dune
Dumb Things for Money
Guild Wars 2 Catch Up
Microsoft PuzzleHunt
Path of Exile: Secrets of the Atlas

Be My Horde
Deltarune Purchasable

AggroChat #372 – 2021 Games of the Year Show – Part One

January 9, 2022 by Belghast

Hey folks it is that time again, time for the Games of the Year show. As is often the case we ended up with way too many things to talk about and could in no way fit them into a single show. As a result I will bring you part one this week and next week it will conclude with part two. We have nineteen games to discuss this year, which means we left some ten honorable mentions on the cutting room floor just because there was nowhere near enough time. This is probably the most diverse list of games that we have compiled because as a group there was not a whole lot of overlap in the titles we played this year.

Without further waffling I bring you the first round of discussion.
