As you might have noticed, we posted IndieDB’s “2017 Indie of the Year” awards final top 10 list a couple of hours ago. Well, guess what? Now it’s time for ModDB’s “2017 Mod of the Year” awards final top 10 list =) So here it is!:
“December 29th, 2017 – This year saw many compelling entries however in the end it was Brutal Doom that took out 1st place, followed closely by the popular Star Wars: Thrawn’s Revenge II: Ascendancy and Twisted Insurrection taking out 2nd and 3rd respectively.
We believe that modding is going to play an increasingly important role in shaping the future of gaming, as new content and creativity is key to engaged and happy players. This is evidenced by the winners below, who have pushed boundaries and made something amazing on top of the games that they modded. The final top 10 includes:
10. SWAT: Elite Force
9. Age of Empires III: Wars of Liberty
8. Dawn of the Tiberium Age
7. Morrowind Rebirth
6. Age of the Ring
5. The Empire At War Remake
4. Third Age: Reforged

2. Star Wars: Thrawn’s Revenge II: Ascendancy
1. Brutal Doom
Huge thanks to all modders and supporters of the awards who recognize the work these developers dedicate to their craft, read the full results, the editors choice and best upcoming.”

I voted for “Brutal Doom” myself. Even so, I got very surprised when I found out that BD had won this year’s edition of mod of the year awards.
Sure, I had a feeling that “Brutal Doom“, “Dawn of the Tiberium Age” and “Morrowind Rebirth” would do really well in the voting department. Even so, I couldn’t even in my wildest fantasy think that I would see all three of them on the “2017 Mod of the Year” awards final top 10 list. I’m truly happy to see that’s the case though. Anyways, congratulations to everyone who ended up on the top 10 “2017 Mod of the Year”awards list =)
