HaRRicH posted... guilt-simulatorsI've never heard that before but it's actually pretty funny and accurate, especially for Life is Strange where Max will guilt-trip herself no matter what choice you make. If
you're only on this board to whine about "SJWs", please redirect
whatever you type on to the nearest trash can. And hop in after it. |
squexa posted... So has anyone played Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana? I consider myself relatively informed about gaming but I have absolutely no idea what the heck this is. And the subtitle doesn't help clarify things either. It's Kingdom Hearts on coke, with S-tier music and 3D Metroidvania world design. Mac Arrowny posted... Ys VIII is awesome yo. One of the best games this gen, and the best action RPG ever made. Agreed. Quite possibly the most fun RPG ever made. ~Jacksonville Jaguars~ |
Thanks
Mech, I made up the term sometime after hearing walking-simulator catch
on. TWD/LiS are more of a point-and-click genre by our usual labels,
but I don't think people play them for their puzzles so much as they do
for exploring difficult decisions. Limited rewind abilities? So-and-so will remember your choice. And yeah, to your point, how often do you see choices like "You won the lottery -- would you like to donate a portion to Meals on Wheels or Toys for Tots?" It's almost always gonna make you feel bad one way or another. Nah games, ya'll just trying to make me feel guilty and you're still somehow enjoyable.

So The Walking Dead was fodder all this time. |
Nintendogs posted... So The Walking Dead was fodder all this time.It wasn't exactly debated before this contest. It was just whether or not Bastion was worse or not. Agent Triple Zero at your service! This line reserved for the true greatone, the 2020 Guru contest winner. |
I'm
excited to see our Guru nom and my personal game of the decade Super
Meat Boy have a match in the next set of matches. Its opponent Slay the
Spire is one of the four games I never heard of before this contest
though. I streamed it for a bit...looks like a card-based game, maybe a
short one. Is it good and is there reason for it to impress in a match
here? O P E R A T I O N O U S T : Nominate SHEIK! https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/ssb/images/0/0d/Sheik-Victory3-SSB4.png |

_SecretSquirrel posted... I don't play David Cage games. What the hell am I looking at?An origami... something - dog, I think - since Heavy Rain's big bad is called the Origami Killer. Incidentally, I would guess someone made the decision to have said origami object as the centerpiece of Heavy Rain's boxart to tout how artistic the game supposedly is.

Heavy Rain has some of the most AMAZING dialogue I’ve ever heard in a game |

_SecretSquirrel posted... I don't play David Cage games. What the hell am I looking at?An origami swan. It’s the serial killer’s calling card in the story. And no that’s not a spoiler. It’s on the back of the box. Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest http://www.twitch.tv/ultimaterializerx ; https://imgur.com/dsnL40n |

I will never vote against this https://youtu.be/Yy44s_de15Y (click to expand) Hardest man on gameFAQs |
LeonhartFour posted... I think you're either overestimating BotW or underestimating the field. 85 games in the original GOTD were at 25%+ on MM, so you're either saying this field is just that much weaker or BotW is just that much stronger.As Yo sussed out, I was talking about the absolute measure of 25%+ on Base Link, not the relative measure of 25%+ on BotW. For what it's worth, I would certainly take fewer games this contest to exceed 25% on BotW even indirectly, but it would be something like 30-50, not barely in the double digits.

The absolute measure of Base Link is entirely theoretical anyway, especially when it comes to games. |
Sens-Hangar_18 posted... I will never vote against this FF4 music was great, but I could've done without the laughs. Last finished: Big Adventure of Owata's Life (PC), Blasteroids (ARC), Asteroids (Atari 8 Bit), Space Invaders (NEC PC-98). (edited 4/5/2020 4:48:48 PM) |
Theories on New Vegas's underperformance:
|
This is an underperformance? You guys are getting spoiled by all these quadruplings! |
Stanley Parable can't be that much stronger than Talos Principle, can it? |
It is 0.6% off a quadrupling as it is. It started pretty slow then roared upward through the first 3-4 hours. We are living our lives Abound with so much information |
43.53% had Nioh |
Damn, look at Persona 5. Heavy Rain isn't that weak... Game of the Decade 2 - Current Score: 34/40 Today's Picks: Persona 5, ACIV:BF, SM, SMB |
when i voted persona, sonic and meat boy all had 90%+ i love these wacky board votes Born to lose, live to win! |

So close to being the 1st Jaaaaason voter |

I imagine Persona 5 will drop but yeah that's a great first minute |
Persona crossed 100 votes at 102-12 - what a delicious board vote. We are living our lives Abound with so much information |
Assassin's Creed IV recovered quite nicely after losing 60/40 to Civilization V Game of the Decade 2 - Current Score: 34/40 Today's Picks: Persona 5, ACIV:BF, SM, SMB |
Wow Black Flag is garbage lmao Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest http://www.twitch.tv/ultimaterializerx ; https://imgur.com/dsnL40n |
Persona coming for that BOTW ass |
Alright I need Black Flag to come down by 3% to avoid losing everything in spread betting. I was the final Undisputed Champion in UCA history, however Advokaiser was the Guru Champion! |
Also this early Sonic result disappoints me I was the final Undisputed Champion in UCA history, however Advokaiser was the Guru Champion! |

Haha, Civ V annihilated the board vote, then backfired. It's an honor being part of Board 8's community. |
davidponte posted... Also this early Sonic result disappoints me Seems about right. It's weaker than DQXI and Ys VIII is stronger than Trails in the Sky. |
Also, My boy is in action, how cute. :3 It's an honor being part of Board 8's community. |
davidponte posted... Also this early Sonic result disappoints me im more dissapointed in gamefaqs for choosing it over ys 8 |
Wow, Meat Boy tanked a lot of percentage in that last minute or so. |
Leonhart4 posted... Wow, Meat Boy tanked a lot of percentage in that last minute or so. meat boy is already surpassing expectations. |
Yuri_LowelI posted... meat boy is already surpassing expectations. This is about what I predicted! Slay the Spire is going to be really weak. |
Ys Viii vs Slay the Spire what you got I have Sonic > Meat Boy in my bracket so yah If

Ys VIII is great. Glad to see it going out with some semblance of dignity. "Those who cast the vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything." |
