Fair points! Of course, any individual list is going to be more interesting/specific than a list that we argue (and argue and argue) amongst our entire staff to curate. So yeah, our list will be a "safer" list than any individual list would be. You should see Luke's individual list. It's just, like, Crusader Kings 2 Read more
