Right now, we are in the early 2020s and I think there's enough distance to really see what the 2010s were all about. The 2010s were pretty crazy but really what decade isn't?
Anyway, I have 3 years from this decade that I'm really fond of. Now some caveats, my list will be very gamer-centric as to me, that's the subject I had the most awareness of in the 2010s. However, I can also touch on Music and politics/culture somewhat. But please feel free to add in anything else to a year review like technology and stuff like that.
2017
This year was honestly amazing and I don't remember hating it all that much. It felt like for a moment things were healing and everything was booming. Japanese game devs ROSE THE FUDGE UP this year and showed the industry who's boss. I also felt like this is when 3D platformers and mascots made their grand return after a decade of FPSs and games like that. Bright colours were finally back and dominated. I would also argue this is when indie games peaked. And on top of that, we finally saw gamers demand to not be so nickeled and dimed in the way of the battlefront 2 loot box controversy and it actually brought SOMETHING in terms of change. maybe not a lot but it was something. Also, AMD made some processors this year.
Culture? I love this year simply because it was the peak of Trump's Twitter and it was crazy and honestly hilarious. Twitter will never be the same without his tweets. Also, fidget spinners were pretty neat. And one last note to touch upon, this was the year that I actually LIKED the simplistic cyber minimalism aesthetic before it became so overused. It looked very fresh, clean, and to the point. But now I hate it LOL. Also, remember the net neutrality apocalypse? It was one of those rare moments where it felt like we were actually UNITED on something.
Music? I will be honest, I think the music this year is strangely forgettable and I don't remember much from it. So that's one thing about this year that I don't like.
In conclusion, I think 2017 is my personal favourite year from the 2010s.
2019
This year was awesome for me in terms of self improvement and I was really happy this year. Very optimistic this year. I made major advancements, I got out of my shell more often and made more friends that I'm still around with today. Games were also VERY solid this year and the 10-year Minecraft celebration was awesome. I remember the politics around this year being kinda focused on Climate-related things. I think of this year as the Optimism before dread (2020 and Covid). Area 51 raid meme was also just.....perfect and beautiful.
2011
This year was AWESOME for games. Minecraft officially releases, Terraria comes out, Valve still made games (LOL), Skyrim came out and blew our collective minds and for once... a 3D sonic game was actually.... good!?
Also, the music felt FUN this year. There are so many bops I still remember today and actually like. I also think this year is when YouTube peaked.
So those are my favourite years from the 2010s. What are yours?
