Since the normies are starting to do their GotY thing.
I think mine’s Hardspace: Shipbreaker, although 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim continues to grow on me.
The second one, forbidden west, is good too. But I find the world building and architecture of Meridian and the surrounding towns very interesting and very beautiful in many ways. I think I prefer the first one, the mechanics got changed a bit and I don’t really like that you can just fly everywhere in the second one.
