The best games of 2018 (so far!)

Qt3ers, remember when @tomchick would list his favorite/best games for the first half the year? I remember, the forum search remembers, and so does Pepperidge Farm! I am not sure if we are getting a list from him this year. I did PM him, but he is a busy man with limited time to play Guild Wars 2, yet alone reply back to me. ;)

So here is a 2018 thread, because lists are important!
But first have some recaps:
2010
2011
2012
2013
2014
2015 (can’t find any via search)
2016 (can’t find any via search)
2017

I believe the rule of thumb is that the game must be released in 2018 (or ported in 2018, Nintendo Switch ports everywhere.gif) and it must be version 1.0 , so no early access stuff.

And with half a year over, here are my top 10 for the first six months of 2018.

  1. Subnautica
  2. Vampyr
  3. Frostpunk
  4. Survivng Mars
  5. Warhammer: Vermintide 2
  6. Railway Empire
  7. Northgard
  8. For the King
  9. The Elder Scrolls Online: Summerset
  10. Warhammer 40,000: Inquisitor – Martyr

I haven’t gotten around to some the great AAA games that came out like Farcry 5 , Battletech, Pillars 2, Overload, Wreckfest and such… But that’s why there will be end of the year top 10 lists. ;)

Quick reference to help jog your memory, not all 2018 releases are noted:
