Looks like my ironclad argument of 'MHW > Sekiro because Bravely Default > Ni no Kuni because who the f*** cares about Ni no Kuni' holds true.

I haven't played FF15, but from what I've heard the Bro Road Trip vibe t is easily the most interesting/fun part of the game. The problem is with the game itself on a fundamental level - combat, story, ect.

nioh 2 being out greatly impacted nioh for sure. I mean it would have beaten isaac anyway but orobably much closer

Final Fantasy sure is a split fanbase though, while I'm sure every Nioh fan appreciated a second game.

Anyway, the last vestiges against Cuphead overtaking a mega-budget AAA game have now been burned away. Shovel Knight is also guaranteed to win two rounds, but that's been the case for a week.

In the other match, we see the first blemish in the Soulsborne armor. Anything to spark some hope in New Vegas!

the "waifu" of FFXV was in like 2 scenes in the whole game. and we were supposed to care about her. actually, the plot NEEDS us to care about her to even work.

and they put her in 2 scenes.

Shovel Knight's task just got a bit harder from my perspective. MHW doing well makes Bravely Default look good and that's the closest analogue you get to Octopath.

GTA5 is sweating bullets right now, yes.

Yeah, I went from "Wow this game is actually pretty great" to "This game is legitimately awful" when I could no longer partake in the Bro Road Trip part of the game. Driving around doing side quests and hunts is cool, playing the actual game and progressing in the story is not.

like i said...sekiro isnt a soulsborne. Its just made by the same devs. Its more in lined with purer action games. Even within the souls community, sekiro is seen as something entirely different.

also MH isnt some joke game here. Its insanly popular. And i would put sekiro even below DS3 if were talking FROM games

I was rooting for Monster Hunter until I realized that I accidentally picked Sekiro in my bracket. Rip to my first Top 50 appearance.

honestly GTAV probably beats FFXV handily

so Cuphead still has an uphill climb ahead of it

Years did have a year of Zelda game meet a year of FF game, so that counts.

I forgot Midna was in the 2013 bracket, should've remembered but it didn't matter.

The gender of the main party has no bearing on what makes that game an absolute s***pile.

No, that would be the absolutely abyssmal battle mechanics. I don't know how Square got it so wrong in FFXV and so right in the FF7 Remake

Holy s*** at Hollow Knight actually doing it. This isn't just a mainline FF game, it's the first FF game since FFX to win GotY.

I'm not crazy about Hollow Knight -- I think it's interesting but gets overhyped -- but there's something legitimate here.
LeonhartFour 4/11/2020 5:32:12 PM#296
anyway I don't really feel like defending FFXV when half the topic wants to crap on any good thing I say about it so that's enough from me
GTAV beats FF15 easily but Cuphead (probably) beats Hollow Knight easily.

Still looking forward to that board vote where Cuphead gets a 100 vote lead handed to it for free.

literally calling FFXV great but FF12 not. Jesus.

FFXV is in every sense of the word mediocre

every system it tries to create, every story plot or characters it tried to engage the player with. The open world design is one of the laziest for a AAA game. The sidquests are incredibly tedious boring an uninspiring. The game has nice visuals. Thats about the only good thing i can say about this abomination of a video game.

theres a reason why a mainline FF game is struggling to beat an indie game thats not known to be popular on gamefaqs. Its not because people have played boTh and prefer HK. Its because Those who have played FFXV a majority think its absolute f***ing trash.

if you thought Undertale was being antivoted then this match today is a bigger example.
