I haven't been so invested in a game like when I first played Witcher 3. Loved all expansions, especially Blood and Wine.
Runner Ups: Cyberpunk 2077 (CDPR does a good job with their concept art), Devil May Cry 5, Tekken (Asuka main), God of War (Greek Pantheon), Dragon Age Inquisition, Final Fantasy X (from the whole FF franchise, VII and XVI comes next), Nier Automata, Metal Gear Rising (unpopular but I did enjoy Platinum Games' smooth action gameplay)
