This is the dumbest list I’ve ever seen. Are they intentionally messing with people? How is a game that just came out “most influential”? What did Minecraft influence other than half-baked clones? Shenmue provided the blueprint for open world games and, what, Ocarina of Time didn’t?

BAFTA continuing their streak of being on my black-list for being total nonsense.

Yeah I feel like games like Wasteland, Daggerfall, and fuck it even asteroid would be better. This is more like most popular retro games list.
