Time to evaluate this year Adventures ?
It is obviously that (2012) is giving its best as it ends, but i thought of someone wanting to evaluate the games that came out so far ‘til now ,of course maybe someone else’‘s would say its too early yet but should we wait for the last day of the year to start this Topic .
then thank to the AG new feature of editing your post anytime anyone can change anything for anything better.
i think 2012 has been so generous as far with good Games and Much as well for instance Daedalic Entertainment had given 3 Adventures, and might surprise us with 4th before the year ends, telltale had giving the best series/episodes since its creation (Not IMO) by market standards, and what is fun that all of this might be just a sort of warming up for the next year, which all adventurers have great high hopes for.
anyways, if anyone would like to mention the the best game he encountered this year or as many as he/she wants to mention ... or maybe just wait until Christmas or later on i mean to see the whole picture .
for me i see no harm in mentioning my favorites Now:
Resonance,Botanicula and Deponia 1&2 ...
those were actually the hot spots of the year so far

Below is a poll for Half a year of Adventures (2012) that was made at the mid of July.

There’s still some excellent looking games coming out shortly, so I think it’s a bit premature, maybe? Personally I can’t wait to play Primordia and have high hopes for it!
Yes, it’s the end of the November, but some great games are coming, like those already released in Germany.

its kindda premature that why i added the Question mark at the thread title.
but do you think however Primordia will be great can easily replaces your opinion about your Fav so far,
Plus doesn’t they take months to create the Aggies…
anyways it your choice kasper , which i am sure it will be for many others as well.
I’m excited for the Aggies and for updates to the Top 100 (GK1 needs to be in the top 10!).
I still need to play some of this year’s games (see signature) and probably won’t get around to it for a couple months, but I’m guessing The Walking Dead is going to sweep the show.
Way too soon. At least another three weeks, if not four.
Now playing: ——-
Recently finished: don’t remember
Up next: Eh…
Looking forward to: Ithaka of the Clouds; The Last Crown; all the kickstarter adventure games I supported
Way too soon. At least another three weeks, if not four.
I’d say wait until the end of the January. Or February. Oscars, aggies…

IF I were to pick a favorite so far, it would probably be a toss up between Deponia and Resonance 
I also think it’s too soon for that, considering December is a big month for new releases, as usual. But hey, I’ll go ahead and say that my favorite at this point is Cognition. And by far.
Definitely going to have to say Resonance at this current point of time. I found the whole adventure… pulchritudinous?
However, that might all change once I get a chance to play Virtue’s Last Reward.
Don’t think there’s anything coming out this year that’ll beat The Walking Dead or Satinav’s Chains… and between the 2 I think I’ll go with WD.
AGOTY is TTOSH no doubt.
“Going on means going far - Going far means returning”
This is going to be a difficult year for me to decide, but at the same time very interesting - there doesn’t seem to be a single outstanding game everyone agrees on so far.
It will probably between 4 or 5 games for GOTY, and hard to predict the winner.
My two favourite games so far this year must be Chaos on Deponia and The Walking Dead. If I had to choose one of them it’d be Deponia 2, since it sticks to the formula I live and breathe for. I also have very high hopes for Daedalics 1954: Alcatraz, though I’m getting somewhat nervous as to whether the English version will see a 2012 release.
A list of worthy GOTY nominees could be nice to see in this thread.

It took me a good 10 seconds to decode this… 
Anyway, personally I like giving out “Best of the Year” awards AFTER the year is over, to make sure all of them are included. Otherwise you’d need a cutoff-point (like “December 1st”) and still count the games from the previous year that were released after the cutoff-point.
Anyway, I can’t vote on this category. I actually only played TWO games that were released in 2012, and neither of them were adventure games (Mass Effect 3 and London 2012).
I’m still in “(re)play the classics”-mode, and I have a LOT of catching up to do…

Maybe this time I can be strong, but since I know who I am, I’m probably wrong. Maybe this time I can go far, but thinking about where I’ve been ain’t helping me start. - Michael Kiwanuka

I got the first bit, but not the second. The Tchains of SHatinav? Could fit, if you’re slightly drunk
