Basically your PS4 GOTY for each year of it's life in the years 2013-2020. Edit: I have also made two more threads on the same topic, for PS3 and for PSVita.   Rules 1. Can be a mu

2013: Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag   Not my favorite game in not my favorite series, but the PS4's launch lineup was somewhere between bleak and dire. Not even Knack could save it.

I actually have a spreadsheet where I already do a top5-10 for every year, but mostly the year games originally came out. Not the port I have played personally. That complicates things somewhat.

 

2013:

Resogun

2014:

Transistor

2013 and 2014 are really lackluster to be honest. We have a much better transition because of backward compatibility this gen. 

2015:

1L109344.png

The Witcher 3

Runner-up: Bloodborne

2016: 

1L7c50e9.png

Odin Sphere Leifthrasir
Runner-up: Dishonored 2

2017:

Prey

Runner-up: Nex Machina

2018:

Hollow Knight 

Runner-up: Marvel's Spider-man

2019:

1L4f87d9.png

Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice 

Runner-up: Va-11 Hall-A

2020:

1Lc0b251.png

13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim

Runner-up: Yakuza Like a Dragon

2021:

1L446b03.png

Disco Elysium: The Final Cut

Runner-up: Lost Judgement

2022:

1Lecbe4c.png
OMORI

Runner-up: Chained Echoes

This is a really tough choice, because overall I think Chained Echoes a better game probably, but OMORI is such an emotional rollercoaster that is is hard to ignore it.

 

P.S. I don't get how to obtain links for medium size trophy pictures. I guess small will do.  Thanks for the advice! @breakingthegreen

What you can do is: right click the image you want, copy and paste it into the forum. Or on some sites (including PSNP), copy and paste the URL of the image you want.

 

Also double tap the image and you can change its dimensions after you've inserted the picture.

2013: Resogun
My first completed game on PS4. Love Housemarque since Super Stardust era.
2014: Dragon Age: Inquisition

Definitely not perfect. Most side missions are dull fetchquests but i loved first ever good looking DA game on consoles, characters and story

2015: Bloodborne

One of the best games with victorian setting and atmosphere ever created. The only better thing than the Hunt is a Hunt with your buddy when both of you cover your asses all the time. Even casuals who didn't play video games for years will be captivated by Yharnam

2016: Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA Future Tone

Hatsune Miku bible with pletora of songs. Also one of the hardest video games. Extreme difficulty will break you.

2017: Nioh

2017 is probably one of the well stacked years in video games history. I decided to pick one of the biggest surprises in my gaming life which reminded me of Onimusha and Ninja Gaiden Black days.

2018: Clannad

Thank god for Kickstarter and all the people that love Clannad. The game has been translated thanks to them and officially released in the West on PC and that translation was used as a base for first ever western console release of one of the best visual novels ever created. Try not to cry. Cry a lot.

2019: Final Fantasy XIV: Shadowbringers

Peak FF right here. This expansion is bigger and more fullfilling than most full video games i played in my whole life. 

2020: Ghost of Tsushima

Loved Sly. Loved Infamous. Ghost of Tsushima literally just blew me away. Ubisoft doesn't make best Ubigames, Sony does. I'm extremely happy we can play such great samurai games today.

2021: Final Fantasy XIV: Endwalker 
When i finished Shadowbringers i wondered if we can see anything better FF related? Of course we can, especially if you huge FFIV fanboy just like me. Yoshida did the unbelivable. He basically did 2nd FFIV remake. Loved every second of it. 
2022: Witch on the Holy Night

What a time to be alive. I never expected i will live long enough to witness official western release of visual novel made by Fate/stay night creators. I'm big sucker for anything witches related and i'm glad i had the opportunity to pay for Nasu work.

Two GOTYs per year cause I'm indecisive:

 

2013: Knack | Lego Marvel Super Heroes

Knack and MSH were both great couch co-op games even if Knack 1 is too simplistic in hindsight compared to 2, and I feel MSH really nailed voice acting in a Lego game.

2014: Dynasty Warriors 8 Xtreme Legends | Omega Quintet

DW8 is my second favourite DW, and I fondly remember Omega Quintet for being the PS4's first JRPG. The artist Fukahire got some retroactive recognition as Korone's illustrator too.

2015: Fallout 4 | Yakuza 0

Fallout 4's my favourite Fallout with an unusually short announcement to release gap for modern Bethesda which kept up my hype, and Yakuza 0's my third favourite RGG game.

2016: Persona 5 | Resident Evil 6

Persona 5 more than lived up to its half-decade long hype, and RE6 was a fantastic couch co-op shooter that looked and played far better on PS4 compared to PS3 for me.

2017: Horizon Zero Dawn | Megadimension Neptunia VIIR

Spent a lot of memorable time with HZD after Sony offered it for free during Covid, and Neptunia VIIR was my first lengthy experience with PSVR1 which was fun.

2018: Clannad | Fate/Extella Link

I was one of Clannad's Kickstarter backers and it was neat seeing it get a PS4 physical, and Fate/Extella Link is currently my favourite Nasuverse game.

2019: Final Fantasy VIII Remastered | Sakura Wars

FFVIII is my favourite FF and I didn't miss the rumble too much, and I've been a longtime Sakura Wars fan so it was nice seeing Sega finally having faith in the series again.

2020: Dragon Ball Z Kakarot | Yakuza 7: Like A Dragon

Kakarot's not perfect but it's the DB game I've dreamed of since I was a kid, and Y7 surprised me with how well Ichiban took over as protag within just one game.

2021: Fuga: Melodies of Steel | Lost Judgment

Massive fan of Fuga's Little Tail Bronx series and had been waiting for the game for a decade, Lost Judgment's my favourite RGG game and features KimuTaku as protag.

2022: Little Witch Nobeta | Witch on the Holy Night

Love Nobeta to the point I bought 3 LEs for it, and I'm ecstatic Aniplex is finally experimenting with Nasuverse VN localization starting with WotHN/Mahoyo which is a great kinetic novel.

 

Jumping the gun here since the game isn't out yet nor has the year ended, but I've already decided Fate/Samurai Remnant will be one of my 2023 GOTYs since it's a Fate Musou from Omega Force, which is an automatic winning combo for me.
