INSIDE is clearly suffering from CAPS SFF
Patience.

We already have a topic. Close
This is pretty rarified air for DOOM to be sitting at. INSIDE could be the weakest game in the division, but you better be hoping its the Draven of this contest if you are hoping for anything to unseat it.

88.15% is the number if you want to see how it compares to Ammy.

Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair is a visual novel adventure game

Well that explains a lot. I don't even dislike VNs, but RE2 should probably have like 99% if it wants a chance to beat DOOM.

Ulti if you want people to use this topic why do you have half the board on ignore like ffs the attention seeking needs to stop mate its contest season open the topic to everyone or let someone else who's neutral make it

You're sour about the discord or who knows what and now you've gone back to petty ulti and you wonder why no one ever believes you when you say you've changed

Yeah, there's zero chance ME2 wins this division.

I'm still pretty confident in it winning. ME2 wasn't exactly against fodder, contrary to all of today's games.

I literally made this topic on an alt that has zero people on ignore or blocked.

ie, it's open to everyone. If the other topic was made by someone who 95% of the board didn't block, I wouldn't have bothered.

Ace Attorney is probably the most popular VN series in the west, but Danganronpa is probably second and they share a genre. I'd think you'd probably enjoy the series.

DOOM 2016 would absolutely destroy PW1. Phoenix himself is one of those characters thats well above his games in strength.

Finally, we've got some results with a much smaller difference between registered and anonymous users. The matches with Mass Effect 2 and Fallout 4 both have less than a 1% difference between registered and anonymous users, and even the Borderlands 2 match is around 1.5%.

The only notable match is Horizon/Fortnite, with almost 7% difference between registered and anonymous. Fortnite doing way better with registered users could be the bracket voting factor, and Fortnite had 43.89% of brackets. The anonymous user result pretty much proves that the Fortnite rally topics had almost zero impact on the match. The number of anonymous votes in the match was similar to Day 1 of the contest, but we had our highest percentage of registered users yesterday thanks to an increase in the number of registered user votes.

Souls types are not as popular as the fans want them to be. I picked against all of them in every debatable match.
Bloodborne is also one of the games that I think might increase in strength from being in a Game of the Decade context as opposed to BGE. The whole Souls niche was one of the big stories of this decade in gaming.

Bloodborne might legitimately be stronger than Dark Souls 1 btw

its position as the best game in the genre has only become more and more solidified as time went on. back when it lost to FFVII it had just been released, had no time to build the massive reputation its garnered...that result should be almost irrelevant by now.

edit: FFXII i meant >_> VII would crush it regardless obviously.
