Recall: Episode 14 – 2020 Year in Review

2021 Expectations

Omer: I just want Baldur’s gate III to come out of early access and diablo 4 to be out on Stadia (wouldn’t bet on the latter but one can hope). UBI+?, Lost Ark

Aviv: Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2, Hitman 3, Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake

Favourite Games of the Past Year

Omer (that are not League of Legends)

Inscryption – PC

Chivalry II – PC

Probably the most mindless fun game I played. Great soundtrack

Pokemon Unite - Switch

Most surprising game of the year, just…special and weird

Elden Ring – I’m not going to play it myself, but I have watched all Form games and this won’t be any different. Babylon's Fall –I’ve been waiting for it for a long time, release already! Tiny Tina's Wonderlands – yes, please.
