...Not counting Zelda or Persona.

Breath of the Wild and Persona 5 wrecked this poll last time it was held. Let's see what 3rd place is.

Some games I considered but had to snub:
Bleed 2
Gravity Rush 2
For Honor
Torment: Tides of Numenara
Yooka-Layle

Prey and Fire Emblem Echoes are coming up soon. Depending on how big of a (B8) splash they make, this poll might change in the future!
Black Turtle did a pretty good job.

Dragon Quest VIII 3D is the only one I've gotten to yet, and that doesn't exactly count.
Our brackets went under, but DpObliVion's lived to tell the tale.

I bought it on Steam and I fully intend to get to it soonish. It's just Persona 5 is loooong.

Nioh.

Amazing Souls game that would have been GotY if only it released in a year where there wasn't a legit GOAT contender in Persona 5.

For sure, berserias pretty damn long too

Berseria has a great story right from the beginning, the best protag since Yuri, solid supporting cast, finally back to TP-less battle system, etc

Hated the first 2 hours of Nier but it grew up quite a lot on me after doing some proper missions. So that.

Berseria seemed pretty easy for me...

I'm not voting for Fire Emblem Heroes before I've played RE7, Nier, or Horizon.

Looks like Nier is the clear third from these choices. Probably overall too.
C'mon, Joshua, do I really need a reason to be with you?
One step at a time. We'll walk it together to the end.

How is it underplayed? I can think of at least 13 B8ers who own it. That's probably the most on this poll outside of Nier.

'I didn't play any of these' is actually doing worse than I thought. The impression I got from the other topic is that people on B8 were still working through BotW and Persona.

Trails the Third would probably be getting more votes than a few of these.

To be fair, there were two months in the year before BotW came out.

Yakuza 0 is my goty so far, but I haven't played Re7, Nier or enough of Persona 5 yet.

Yooka-Laylee

But I am an absolute sucker for 3D platformers, so it gave me a fix that is hard to find these days.

Nier > Yakuza

Haven't finished Nioh or Andromeda to fully judge them yet but they'd probably be under Yakuza.

Have you played Cloudbuilt? It's my favorite recent 3D platformer.

Horizon is easily one of my top 5 games of all time. It wins 2017 easily for me.
