This is how these games, with top notch graphics quality and very busy, intense action sequences, run better than pretty much any 2000s game on modern hardware. It is no surprise that id Tech games win this award. They demonstrate some of the most incredible optimization of any game, really leveraging the Vulkan API and advanced technologies such as async compute and double-speed FP16 execution (Rapid Packed Math for AMD, double speed half-precision compute for Nvidia), along with some of the very best and most intelligent multithreading of any game. We had to go with its immediate technological predecessors, Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus (2017) and Wolfenstein: Youngblood (2019).

This was a very closely contested contest, that would’ve been much easier had DOOM Eternal not been delayed.

Arma 3 (2013) with JSRS and Enhanced Soundscape mods.Frictional Games has always been top notch with regards to sound, and even though SOMA abandoned OpenAL hardware acceleration, it comes out on top. On top of that, the recording and mastering quality of all of SOMA’s sounds are phenomenal, and it has one of the most effective surround HRTFs of any game that isn’t using DirectSound3D/OpenAL or a newer technology like Steam Audio. Many of its under water sound effects were recorded first hand using special equipment under water. The attention to detail in SOMA’s sound effects are breathtaking: it has a highly physics enabled environment, with pretty much every miscellaneous item being a physics object that you can move around, throw, drop, and every one of these objects will make a distinct and appropriate sound for every possible surface you drop them on. It was a very close call, but we had to give this award to SOMA (2015). Platforms: PC / Linux / Mac / XBOX One / PlayStation 4

So, without further ado, let’s move on and take a look at the first award. Of course, there are some genres we are unable to cover such as Tycoons, as we are a small team here at GND-Tech, so we will have to omit awards for those genres unfortunately. We do not want to ignore the fact that modders often surpass game developers in artistic creativity, ambition, and execution. The other main difference is that total conversion mods are eligible for more awards here than for regular game of the year awards.

These awards are similar to our game of the year awards, with awards for different aspects of games and different genres, however there is no overall game of the decade or mod of the decade awards, as that becomes far too subjective for us.

This is our Game of the Decade – 2010s article, the third in our game of the decade series of articles. Now that we’re officially in 2020 and we’ve done the 2019 game of the year awards, it is time to look back at the best games throughout the 2010s.
