Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 1313 GameFAQs Contests
WarThaNemesis2 posted... What is the hottest upcoming Square/Konami/Capcom? A remake that we've heard basically nothing about for years? The hottest actual upcoming game related to those companies might be Bloodstained, a game that is being made because of someone Konami drove off. Kingdom Hearts III. >_> I get what you're saying though. xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
what is ageism but a preemptive self-own If I only consulted the Gossip Stones like BKSheikah, instead of listening to Tingle, maybe I could have been the 2017 Guru Champ! |
I
think Ganondorf is clearly on a tier where he's out of reach of beating
a Noble Niner. But at this rate there's certainly no guarantees Courage is the magic that turns dreams into reality. |

if Ganondorf beats Mega Man I'm cancelling Zelda "Those who cast the vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything." |

The hottest actual upcoming game related to those companies might be Bloodstained, a game that is being made because of someone Konami drove off. I'll admit I completely forgot KHIII was coming out, but I looked things up and KHIII is small compared to Breath of the Wild/Odyssey/Pokemon Let's Go hype in general. Really the only inexplicable part is Samus being so popular, but that's always been a thing here (and if the Metroid Prime 4 announcement was literally anything other than saying Metroid Prime 4 is being worked on it would probably be crushing KHIII's trailers outside of Toy Story). https://imgur.com/M1heX2g RIP Paul Bearer.

Lopen posted... Some game message boards here are decent. GameFAQs has a joke of a mod team, but somehow a lot of reddits manage to be even worse, mostly due to overmanaging content. I wouldn't come here much but there is some appeal to the site beyond b8. This 1000%. There are some great game boards, and in spite what the millennials will tell you, there is a veritable goldmine of game resources here that are simply NOT duplicated anywhere else on the net. It's like paying for bubble wrap. -transience on Final Fantasy: All the Bravest |

Spoilers if you're 30 now, you're a millennial. https://imgur.com/M1heX2g RIP Paul Bearer. Ohhhh nooooo. :( |
I'm over 30. And millennials are 100% the crowd that think Reddit/Youtube/Twitch have made the entire rest of the internet obsolete. It's not whining, just stating the obvious. It's like paying for bubble wrap. -transience on Final Fantasy: All the Bravest (edited 11/30/2018 2:37:34 PM)report |
Millennial is more a mindset than an age. I call people that are older than me Millennial I don't give a damn. No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
Ah, it's one of those "It's whatever group I don't like" things. https://imgur.com/M1heX2g RIP Paul Bearer. Ohhhh nooooo. :( |
Well I don't call racists Millennials so that's not accurate. No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
Second Chance bracket prediction stats have been corrected earlier. I got this response from Allen: Message From GameFAQs on 11/30/2018 Pikachu was correct; but Sonic (and the rest) were not. Points were awarded properly, just the count was broken. I specifically mentioned Pikachu and Sonic as examples of stats that I think were incorrect, but Allen admits that Pikachu's number was correct. Looking back on the stats page, the only ones that changed were Cloud/Crono/Zelda/Sonic.

Crono with the first-ever literal coinflip win! https://imgur.com/M1heX2g RIP Paul Bearer. Ohhhh nooooo. :( |
I'm sorry the word millennial triggers you. Feel free to replace it with, "young whippersnappers. " It's like paying for bubble wrap. -transience on Final Fantasy: All the Bravest |

I
mostly use the word millennial ironically when I do (which isn't often)
but saying it's "every group I dislike" is incorrect and dumbing it
down a lot. There's a pretty specific personality profile I'll call
millennial and it has nothing to do with me liking or disliking them. No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! (edited 11/30/2018 2:49:48 PM)report |

I actually think reddit has a higher chance of better managed content on average in major subreddits than GameFAQs It's just the competition you have to play to have your topic noticed in big subreddits can be really annoying Thankfully smaller subreddits are usually very nice ISFJ Big on Visual Novels, Anime, Video games.

NowItsAngeTime posted... I actually think reddit has a higher chance of better managed content on average in major subreddits than GameFAQs Well it depends if the content you want is fanart and memes or if you want to actually be able to use the search function in a meaningful way rather than having all the useful stuff segregated into daily or weekly megathreads. No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
Any
time I see/hear someone under the age of 40 complaining about
Millennials, I assume what they really complaining about are people from
Generation Z. CBX - Today's Winners: Samus and Mario |
NowItsAngeTime posted... I actually think reddit has a higher chance of better managed content on average in major subreddits than GameFAQs Reddit is much better for funny posts and fanart than this site but it's also trash for finding actual useful information unless you already have it bookmarked or know the specific name of the threads. There's a collection of item and enemy upgrade values for Breath of the Wild that was posted on reddit and it's impossible to find them with reddit's options, you have an easier time finding them through google than reddit's own site. If they were posted here? They would be right there in the FAQ list or stickied at the top of the board. Not to mention the search function on boards compared to a pre-determined list of "hot" "new" "controversial" which are useless labels and don't really help. You felt your sins weighing down on your neck. |
I use Reddit all the time myself...when Google links me directly to the specific information I actually wanted. It's like paying for bubble wrap. -transience on Final Fantasy: All the Bravest |
snake_5036 posted... NowItsAngeTime posted...I actually think reddit has a higher chance of better managed content on average in major subreddits than GameFAQs Once again a subreddit specific thing (bigger vs smaller) Some are in wikis, some are in sidebars, some are in pinned topics There is unfortunately a limit on pinnned topics unlike gamefaqs game boards ISFJ Big on Visual Novels, Anime, Video games.

Also
Reddit has better quick discussion/question thread topics where it
doesn't devolve into people trolling you (unless the question is super
easy/dumb) ISFJ Big on Visual Novels, Anime, Video games. Twitter: superange128 Planned 2018 Fighting Game Mains: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DgH4MCHVMAAKV9l.png |

Reddit
is better if you're bad at looking things up I guess because yeah most
communities heavily encourage you asking every question you have fresh
in a megathread due to OCD-like management of topics that ask questions
rather than just... looking it up, like you could do on a GameFAQs
forum. As such the community's reaction is kinder in those situations because it's encouraged, rather than GameFAQs which will have jackasses point out the other topics made on the question. But at the same time it makes the process less efficient for someone who might have a lot of questions and doesn't want to wait for an assortment of posters to answer their questions piecemeal. Some have some good persistent resources like wikis and stuff but yeah in general I would say the useful gaming reddit is the exception (but the exceptions are quite good) and not the norm.

Wow
Pikachu actually won his match, can't say that I don't have a sense of
personal satisfaction considering MM's choice of fashion... For today's match, I like all characters. |
Reddit's
always seemed really bad to me about the retention of key information.
In its peak days, GameFAQs would have a couple of stickies on every
major game board with all the info about that game that was very helpful
to know, along with some common Q&A. They were so useful -
especially if you're like me and don't actually like following guides,
but do want some advice to avoid major pitfalls and help get up to
speed. Those kinds of resources don't fit well with most subreddits from
what I've seen (or Wikis). We are living our lives Abound with so much information (edited 11/30/2018 3:56:37 PM)report |
