The AGDQ Fire Emblem Three Houses run just ended. People are just getting back to GameFAQs. Link isn't the only one who kicks ass. Congrats to Advokaiser for winning the CBX Guru Contest! |
Based
on these results so far, I think we have to run a 3-way or 1v1 poll
tomorrow to eliminate LFF as a possible factor in determining this
year's GotY winner. The presence of Link's Awakening is not good for
Fire Emblem and I'd rather see a result that is legitimate as possible
(meaning no LFF or SFF). Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as Advokaiser, Guru Champ! |
Kingdom hearts 3 is a solid #3 in this poll I’m guessing behind FE and RE2. Sekiro is my GOTY and I voted for it but I’m shocked it’s doing so well considering how many people could not come close to beating that game. especially on Jrpg/Nintendo faqs also if RE2 wins will it be the first non RPG/Nintendo game to win GOTY? |

RE2 just had a massive spike on that most recent update (gaining about 2.5% there). Yuri_LowelI posted... also if RE2 wins will it be the first non RPG/Nintendo game to win GOTY? RE4 was a former GotY winner, so that's not true at all. We also had San Andreas as a former winner too.

It’s obvious what the two strongest games of the year are. FE and RE2. We don’t need LA being in another poll. last year it was fine because god of war was unknown and people didn’t know how it would perform against red dead 2 id be interested to see how red dead would do if it came out this year. Would probably be a close 2nd or 3rd. God of war is take over any of these games easily though. |

LA is currently in fourth place right now, so it would miss the cut-off to get into a 3-way poll. Though it's still close enough that it could move up to third place at some point before the poll ends.

RE2 just had a massive spike on that most recent update (gaining about 2.5% there). ok so 15 years ago. Still with lower votals and a more RPG centric site. Impressive. or is it? Because let’s be brutally honest. If Kh3 wasnt garbage it would walk this poll. Oh well. |
WarThaNemesis2 posted... Goose vs. Dante who ya gotDon't do this to me Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
I just noticed two things... what was the point of the VR poll if the winner isn’t on here? And if we’re removing that due to low votes. Why the f*** is Mario kart tour on here? No FFXV shadowbringers? mario kart tour....a terrible money grabbing mobile game. (edited 1/9/2020 9:33:08 PM) |
Go Fire Emblem! Dilated Chemist All hail Advokaiser, our Guru Champion! |
At
this rate, it might not be worth it to run a Final poll. I'd still like
to see Fire Emblem vs. RE2 without all the LFF, but this is getting
brutal. Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
I wish Allen had randomly decided to include KH3 in the final poll despite omitting it from all the other ones. also non-RPG/Nintendo GOTY winners: 2004 - San Andreas 2005 - RE4 2009 - CoD: MW2 2012 - Borderlands 2 so yeah it's been a while unless you just mean JRPGs in which case there have been a few WRPG winners (ME2, Skyrim, and Witcher 3) |
RE2 vs. Sekiro: PS4 poll - 56.96% Xbox One poll - 57.93% PC poll - 62.08% Overall GotY poll - 65.92% Sekiro is getting blown up by RE2 to a much greater degree in the overall GotY poll than it did in PS4 or Xbox One poll, though the PC poll result is closer to what it's doing today than the first 2 results. As for Fire Emblem, it had an impressive 62.38% on Link's Awakening in the Switch poll, but is only putting up 57.95% on it in the overall GotY poll.

Fire
Emblem is going to overlap way more Dragon Quest than Zelda does, so
it's not surprising that it's doing worse than the Switch poll. I'm just
hoping it doesn't lose end up losing ground to Dragon Quest, because FE
is also going to overlap with Zelda more than Dragon Quest does. Being
Fire Emblem in a multi-option poll is suffering. Black Turtle did a pretty good job. (edited 1/9/2020 9:43:36 PM) |
LeonhartFour posted... I wish Allen had randomly decided to include KH3 in the final poll despite omitting it from all the other ones. borderlands is sort of RPG shooter. But yeah I did say non RPG. mass effect 2 is my GOTD so I’ll be voting for that if that poll comes up |

yeah
Fire Emblem doesn't have long-time series loyalty on this site the way
Zelda, RE, or even DQ does so I think that's working against it here |
KamikazePotato posted... At this rate, it might not be worth it to run a Final poll. I'd still like to see Fire Emblem vs. RE2 without all the LFF, but this is getting brutal. there will definitely be a final poll. We got 2 years ago when it was obvious BOTW would win by a large margin. |

I'm just hoping it doesn't lose end up losing ground to Dragon Quest, because FE is also going to overlap with Zelda more than Dragon Quest does. Being Fire Emblem in a multi-option poll is suffering. The one result that doesn't make sense is Link's Awakening more than doubling Dragon Quest in the Remakes/Remasters poll, but is now losing to Dragon Quest in the overall GotY. LFF/SFF can't fully explain the dramatic strength shift between the 2 polls. Even if it's being hurt by LFF or SFF, it shouldn't cause it to go from more than doubling Dragon Quest to losing to it. LeonhartFour posted... yeah Fire Emblem doesn't have long-time series loyalty on this site the way Zelda, RE, or even DQ does so I think that's working against it here Also doesn't help that Fire Emblem has generally been very low in the Nintendo hierarchy.

i guess if we want a fair final three, Sekiro is probably our best bet for 3rd? [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] [NO Advokaiser NO PEACE] |
LeonhartFour posted... yeah Fire Emblem doesn't have long-time series loyalty on this site the way Zelda, RE, or even DQ does so I think that's working against it here I disagree. FE has way more love on this site than DQ. DQ hasn’t looked this good ever. FE awakening did very well the year it was released. and let’s be real. Part of FE not being a juggernaut is because it’s a grid based SRPG. If this series was a staple action or turn based RPG it would be Dominating just about most things out there that aren’t Zelda or Final fantasy. which makes me wonder how popular golden sun would be if they made more games. remember golden sun beating GTA Sam Andreas? yeah that’s the power of a Nintendo RPG right there.

Yuri_LowelI posted... there will definitely be a final poll. We got 2 years ago when it was obvious BOTW would win by a large margin. actually we didn't in years where the #1 option won by a landslide we haven't gotten a final poll (2017 - BOTW, 2014 - Smash 4, and 2011 - Skyrim) in all of those situations the winner doubled second place so I don't know if that's Allen's threshold |
AxemRedRanger posted... i guess if we want a fair final three, Sekiro is probably our best bet for 3rd?I can't see Sekiro doing anything but maybe take away a few votes from RE2, so the most fair final poll is probably Three Houses vs. RE2. Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Yuri_LowelI posted... I disagree. FE has way more love on this site than DQ. DQ hasn’t looked this good ever. FE awakening did very well the year it was released. Eh, Awakening is the only other game from the series on this site people care about. I'd take DQ8 to beat it, and probably DQ11. Dragon Quest might not be super popular, but it at least is a long-running series that an older population (like ours) would appreciate. |
LeonhartFour posted... actually we didn't oh ok. Thought there was. The 2011 one was hilarious. Can’t believe Skyrim only doubled Zelda. |
FE7 and Awakening probably aren't too far away in strength. Link isn't the only one who kicks ass. Congrats to Advokaiser for winning the CBX Guru Contest! |

Dragon Quest might not be super popular, but it at least is a long-running series that an older population (like ours) would appreciate. I wouldn’t take it over 11. Not now. But 8 yes. 11 could be a juggernaut in a few years time. That game is amazing. but Nintendo need to make another modern Golden Sun game. |
Actually,
there are a couple of instances where we had a final poll where 1st
place won by 10-15% in the overall poll, so I feel good that we'll get
one as long as Three Houses doesn't completely collapse. |
More
than the hierarchy thing (which is another factor), I think Fire Emblem
is hurt by how much it overlaps with other properties. It's both
Nintendo and an RPG, and the 3rd/4th place options in this poll are a
Nintendo game and an RPG. https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/4217-best-of-2010-game-of-the-year https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/4218-best-of-2010-game-of-the-year-final SMG2 *did* manage to close the gap significantly when the Nintendo options were removed and the field of options was shrunk. Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |

But 2 games only. We don’t need 3 games |
Yuri_LowelI posted... i think it’s only fair to do another. But 2 games only. We don’t need 3 games Eh, I think as long as 2nd place isn't winning by a wide margin, I imagine it'll be a 3-way. But every possible combo favors RE2 unless Sekiro gets 3rd. |

Yuri_LowelI posted... yeah but if you take away god of war 3 it probably makes Me2 more stronger than Mario. I mean Galaxy 2 lost to Mass Effect 1 in 2015 Games, so yeah. |
LeonhartFour posted... Eh, I think as long as 2nd place isn't winning by a wide margin, I imagine it'll be a 3-way. even if that happens. Well have another final Final poll with just two. |
LeonhartFour posted... I mean Galaxy 2 lost to Mass Effect 1 in 2015 Games, so yeah.That reminds me...i wish me1 or 2 was in that first poll against undertale instead of 3. If only. |
Remember: everything that happened that year is Mass Effect 3's fault. Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Not everything: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/6163-best-game-ever-day-33-division-i-final-chrono-trigger-vs Link isn't the only one who kicks ass. Congrats to Advokaiser for winning the CBX Guru Contest! |
KamikazePotato posted... Remember: everything that happened that year is Mass Effect 3's fault. Mass Effect 3 #2 in the X-Stats it's a compromise I'll accept |
I'm still confused at how badly Mass Effect 2 did that contest, at least compared to all the other polls it's been in. Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Team Rocket Elite posted... Not everything: actually if undertale didn’t happen then the melee fans wouldn’t be trying to rally for that game to win. i wonder how strong melee would be today. Obviously stronger than 4 and brawl but what melee fanbase almost achieved that contest was insane. |
KamikazePotato posted... I'm still confused at how badly Mass Effect 2 did that contest, at least compared to all the other polls it's been in. Eh, I think the only time it looked bad was against MGS3. Starcraft is no slouch, even if it doesn't have rally power behind it. The MGS3 performance only looks weird because BioShock did so well the round before, but BioShock looked good in GOTD, too. https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/7514-whats-your-all-time-favorite-2-game and there's this to inspire confidence too I guess...! |
KamikazePotato posted... I'm still confused at how badly Mass Effect 2 did that contest, at least compared to all the other polls it's been in. it had an abysmal pic in its match. And that contest was over when all the tranny loving tumblr fan girls decided to stick around and vote for random games so you couldn’t really take it seriously anymore. |
Yuri_LowelI posted... actually if undertale didn’t happen then the melee fans wouldn’t be trying to rally for that game to win. nah Melee fans are the worst and literally rallied in a completely pointless match against G/S/C where it was already winning comfortably makes me glad Melee isn't eligible for GOTD2 because man that fanbase has a raging inferiority/superiority complex because of Brawl |
LeonhartFour posted... nah Melee fans are the worst and literally rallied in a completely pointless match against G/S/C where it was already winning comfortably i was one of those. f*** brawl. Where is that game now? Irrelevant. |
The
real irrelevant Smash game is 4. Brawl at least has Subspace Emissary
and nostalgia. Smash 4 was on the Wii U and has been completely
supplanted by Ultimate in every way. Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
KamikazePotato posted... The real irrelevant Smash game is 4. Brawl at least has Subspace Emissary and nostalgia. Smash 4 was on the Wii U and has been completely supplanted by Ultimate in every way. brawl does have the best theme. I’ll give it that to be fair. They’re both irrelevant. smash ultimate will be irrelevant when they make the new smash. |
LeonhartFour posted... Mass Effect 3 #2 in the X-Stats me3 was a great game. Luckily I never experienced the original ending. |
