We talked about our favorite games of 2013 in another post, so lets go forward and talk about what we are looking forward to in 2014.
There seems to be lots of games coming in 2014, and these are just a few of that I can think of off the top of my head.
What are you looking forward to this year?
Not sure if all of these will be out this year, but these are the games I'm most looking forward to, in no particular order:
GalCiv 3Tropico 5Divinity: Original SinGrim DawnTex Murphy: Tesla EffectWasteland 2Age of Wonders 3Pillars of EternityCarmageddon ReincarnationHero U: Rogue to RedemptionDreamfall ChaptersTorment: Tides of NumeneraArmikrogMassive ChaliceEndless LegendWarlock 2 (Hoping they add click+drag and hotkeys)Banished (next month woo!)South Park: The Stick of TruthBroken AgeWitcher 3
You think they'll stop milking the franchise?
Hm, judging by Company of Heroes 2, this thought is only logical. Should we see DoW3 in foreseeable future, it will probably have cracking ice and slightly more sophisticated line of sight system. And a lot of enduring.
Slitherine is, a, well, "Slitherine". Not that I don't like their games, but I rather grab my minis instead. At least for now.
We're talking about Games Workshop. So milking the franchise for like ages is set in stone. But there's nothing wrong about that.
I don't know what to make of the secrecy about Dawn of War 3. If a developer is working on a good product and feeling confident about it why no talk about it. So much time has past and no news about it one can only assume it will be delayed even further. But I think we will see Dawn of War 3.

I meant Relic - GW obviously decided to throw away licenses to everyone.
I'm not sure what Relic could add to DoW3, I mean if DoW2 took something from Company of Heroes, what DoW3 should take from Company of Heroes2? "Enduring"?
It would be quite a stagnation. IMHO.
Could be wrong, but maybe it's not a good time to announce DoW3, it may be too early in development, or they analyze data they gather from CoH2, to implement them in DoW3. No idea. But indeed, I doubt they'll stop milkin that cow, bringing them golden eggs.
You win the award for the most interesting use of mixed metaphor!
JUST RELEASED:
Heroes of a Broken Land, an old-school indie dungeon crawler with some nifty additions such as multiple party dungeons, random events and multiple difficulty sliders to tailor the experience.

It may on the surface seem to be a grind, but the wealth of tactics (both in dungeon and out) and ways of developing your characters make it a great little indie title.
Doing my best, sir!
There are several games that sound very interesting. Some on the PC and some on the IPAD.
Shroud of the Avatar(Looking pretty good. Looks and feels like an Ultima)
Wasteland 2(seems like everyone agrees on this. I am debating whether to join the beta on this)
Exiles (IOS)(I loved Ravensword)
Galactic Civlizations 3(of course)
I am hoping that Disney will allow 1313 to go through. This sounded like this game had serious potential.
I am sure there are other games that I am not listing, but these are the ones that come to my mind.
No particular order:
Transistor
Wasteland 2
Dungeon of the Endless
Sins of a Dark Age
The Witcher 3
Dragon Age: Inquisition
Invisible, Inc.
Homeworld: Shipbreakers (not sure if this will come out in 2014 or not)
Ok. The Ones I already preordered are...
I think I will be busy... Then there are other sequels that I might get when/if they come out...
It's been a few months since the original post, and several games have come out, quite a bit more have been announced, and some have been delayed.
I've updated my list with:
I'm still going through all the new stuff announced recently, so I'm sure more will be added.
Witcher 3
Risen 3 (because of sentiment to Gothic).
LH 1.7
+1 (and the next build of GalCiv3, though technically it's not a game being released but I'm still Jonesin' for it!)
I just realized I pretty much "own" and play early access to the games I'm looking forward to already.
Sunless Sea
Maia
Planetary Annihilation
Spacebase DF-9
I am also looking forward to Massive Chalice and The Darkest Dungeon but I don't think either will release this year.
Mostly looking forward to Divekick: Addition Edition and hopefully a PC version of Ultra Street Fighter IV
Sid Meier's Civilization Beyond Earth
Galactic Civilization 3
The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt
Now that E3 is out of the way and we more or less know what is 2014 and what is 'some time in the next millenium'
GalCiv3
Beyond Earth
Invisible Inc (from the game previously known as Incognita)
Xenonauts (coming out Monday!!! Get it before the price jumps to $25!!!)
Dragon Age Inquisition
Evolve
Borderlands the Pre-Sequel
FarCry 4

Divinity Original Sin is coming out in a few days. I bought early acces and this game is a blast for fans of hardcore rpg`s. Wonderful graphics with oldschool rpg elements.
