"Life Is Strange"

"The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt"

SOMA's more screwed than the joke itself.

Actually, if Life Is Strange wins, seriously, good job! Just for SOMA to be put in the same category as Life Is Strange is spectacular, given how deeply emotional and striking the narrative really is.

It is spectacular, given what a funnel-tastic throwaway joke of an ending setup Life is Strange has

It must just be me being older here, but although the narrative of Life is Strange was excellent, half the time I was thinking 'God, what a bunch of whiney teenagers' Wink

SOMA should compete along with the art direction and the settings.
The athmosphere and captured loneliness in the abyss and other underwater areas are well crafted.
You don't get often particular captured moment this well done.
