I’m
not too worried about Nier vs. Divinity. It just means that Divinity is
stronger than dome thought, but really it looked alright in 2017 and
had reason to get stronger. The thing is however, that Rayman’s strength
is still a massive question mark. I just decided to change this sig. Blaaaaaaargh Advokaiser |
Thing
is, we already have Divinity's R1 match to work with. Its performance
put it on par with stuff like Ratchet and Clank UYA and The Binding of
Isaac, so like, yah. 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. |
plasmabeam posted... You mean "upset a favored and higher-seeded indie game in Round 1." I more meant how struggling with an indie game doesn't exactly bode well for its strength in light of how this contest has progressed. Otherwise fair. I could still see Rayman Legends being weaker than Divinity, but there's no way to know for sure. I get the feeling the board might be underestimating it because it doesn't care about WRPGs and it makes sense they'd have never heard of one that isn't such a high-profile release. I knew about the game because my brother plays it and a streamer I watch online plays it too. "Nothing I could do!" -Darksydephil |
Wow FF XIV just folded right away to MK8... Into the woods, but mind the past... Into the woods, but mind the future! |
will round 3 only have two matches per day? miles davis fan |
yes The final Undisputed Champion in UCA history. |
I
would've loved to see Uncharted 4 vs. FFXIV in Round 1. Would've been
such an epically close match, especially since both games had very
similar trends against Mario Kart 8. Actually, I'd like to see a trend chart comparison between UC4/MK8 and FFXXIV/MK8 once this match ends. It's an honor being part of Board 8's community. |
Is this a satisfactory result for Skyrim? It's an honor being part of Board 8's community. |
MechanicalWall posted... Thing is, we already have Divinity's R1 match to work with. Its performance put it on par with stuff like Ratchet and Clank UYA and The Binding of Isaac, so like, yah. Hearthstone is going to end up well above its 2015 value unless something strange happens. |
Witcher/Skyrim is the one match I'm sweating about the most. Yeah, I went for Skyrim, but I had completely forgotten about Geralt's swashbucklin' run a couple of years back... Here's hoping Journey's strength has been greatly underestimated. Last finished: Big Adventure of Owata's Life (PC), Blasteroids (ARC), Asteroids (Atari 8 Bit), Space Invaders (NEC PC-98). |
lordjers posted... Here's hoping Journey's strength has been greatly underestimated. Actually... How much is Skyrim projected to get on FFVII? It's an honor being part of Board 8's community. |
lordjers posted...
Geralt got handed a weak eightpack and couldn't even build up enough of a bandwagon or rallying to beat Auron, so I wasn't too impressed by him. Courage is the magic that turns dreams into reality |
I
imagine Journey has improved a decent amount since its last showing.
That game was influential and continues to be brought up often within
the gaming zeitgeist. This isn't a great result for Skyrim, or even necessarily a good one, but I don't think it's doomed against Dark Souls just yet. Witcher is almost assuredly going to eat its lunch, though. The music was thud-like. The music was... thud-like. |
Advokaiser posted... Is this a satisfactory result for Skyrim?Satisfactory for what? Making it out of its division? Probably. Making it past Dark Souls? ...sure? Making it past Witcher? Lolno If

Advokaiser posted... Actually...Based on this match, 31.80% with a constant Journey and FFVII. Advokaiser is the man. Congrats! |
DoctorJimmy133 posted... Based on this match, 31.80% with a constant Journey and FFVII. Wow… That sounds awful, tbqh. It's an honor being part of Board 8's community. |
Advokaiser posted... Wow… That sounds awful, tbqh. Which should tell you there's something amiss because that probably wouldn't happen. |
Final Fantasy 7 (2015g) VS Skyrim (2015g) Final Fantasy 7 has a strength of 44.59. Skyrim has a strength of 34.93. Final Fantasy 7 wins with 60.83% of the vote! "Yikes" Leonhart4 posted... Which should tell you there's something amiss because that probably wouldn't happen. Maybe, but we haven't exactly seen too much evidence to the contrary from Skyrim yet. Advokaiser is the man. Congrats! (edited 4/19/2020 1:44:27 PM) |
I’m
going to guess Journey’s stronger now due to it being free a lot,
including right now, and coming to PC. It is also truly free right now,
not just for PS+ members - so that is a good 32% of the site who don’t
have PS+ but do have a PS4 who can now play it. Good reason for it to
improve. However, I doubt it is nearly enough for Skyrim to beat Witcher. I just decided to change this sig. Blaaaaaaargh Advokaiser |
OrangeCrush980 posted... Geralt got handed a weak eightpack and couldn't even build up enough of a bandwagon or rallying to beat Auron, so I wasn't too impressed by him.Beating a trio of Smash Bros. characters and putting up a fight against Auron isn't the definition of "weak". Geralt had a good run. |
By now Auron is probably the strongest FFX character and maybe even stronger than the game itself too >_> |
I
feel like if Skyrim gets embarrassed next round a lot of people are
going to be surprised again because we're still trying to come up with
any explanation other than 'Skyrim got a little weaker'. I'm not sure
why that's still so hard to believe. If you've been on a gaming forum in
the past five years that isn't exactly surprising. If

swordz9 posted... By now Auron is probably the strongest FFX character and maybe even stronger than the game itself too >_> Auron has probably always been the strongest, but he honestly wasn't that great in 2018, so let's not get carried away about him being more popular than the game. |
swordz9 posted... By now Auron is probably the strongest FFX character and maybe even stronger than the game itself too >_> There's no 2018 xstats on Ngamer's website yet, but we have this: Auron (2013c) VS Final Fantasy X (2015g) Auron has a strength of 36.60. Final Fantasy X has a strength of 35.94. Auron wins with 50.90% of the vote! A win of 1,034 with 57,355 total votes cast. Close match! Advokaiser picked Cloud in Guru and rained on my bracket. At least I finished 20th overall! |
It
probably doesn’t matter too much to the current GameFAQs audience, but I
know numerous non-FF fans who still know Auron as “the cool guy from
Final Fantasy”. ...and they’re right! I just decided to change this sig. Blaaaaaaargh Advokaiser |
Lightning Strikes posted... It probably doesn’t matter too much to the current GameFAQs audience, but I know numerous non-FF fans who still know Auron as “the cool guy from Kingdom Hearts 2”. The final Undisputed Champion in UCA history. |
He was also pretty cool in KH2. That was my first exposure to him |
We already had our first match of GotY-winners facing each other: SSBU (2018) VS LoZ:LBW (2013) We're about to see our next: LoZ:BotW (2017) VS FF15 (2016) 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 |
This actually makes me think: What GotY winners from this decade are no longer the strongest in their year? Xenoblade>Borderlands 2 Doom>Final Fantasy XV Is that it? Maybe The Last of Us could edge past ALBW but I’m not sure. I just decided to change this sig. Blaaaaaaargh Advokaiser |
Lightning Strikes posted... This actually makes me think:I don't think anyone is a passionate fan of ALBW. Its a good game, but it doesn't seem like it has rabid fans. TLOU is a lot stronger than it I did not hit her! Its not true! Its BS! I did not hit her! I did not! Oh hi, Mark. |
2011, hurr hurr hurr hurr. 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 |
Hey, widescreen match pics are now a thing. Agent Triple Zero at your service! This line reserved for the true greatone, the 2020 Guru contest winner. |
Hey FFXV looked great for about 8 seconds there! The final Undisputed Champion in UCA history. |
_SecretSquirrel posted... Hey, widescreen match pics are now a thing. yeah they expand out once we go to two per day |
Oh my god BotW It's Reyn Time. |
he come to town "Those who cast the vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything." |
Monster Hunter already gaining percentage |
I know this competition is bad but I’m starting to legit wonder if BOTW is a top 5 game. add the c and back away iphonesience |
Zelda is murdering ff15.... Breath of the Wild vs Red/Blue I have no idea who would win SuperNiceChao about to win the Oracle 2020! TsunamiXXVIII and me will destroy all you noobs |
Please don’t boot the true game of the decade out. DQ11 is that amazing.. Ngamer64: Zylo, you're making less sense every day. Advokaiser >Me |
transcience posted... I know this competition is bad but I’m starting to legit wonder if BOTW is a top 5 game.This is what the 2015 stats project, based on Life is Strange, and we all know that projections based on fodder blowouts are 100% accurate It's Reyn Time. |
BotW saw what Witcher did to ME3 and thought it was cute |
Hopefully we get a MM bonus poll. If not an accurate xstat ranking, at least we'll know where it is on the pecking order "Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and hellboy" - trancer1 lol xstats |
@creativename Can you trigger a manual poll update for Poll IDs 8006 to 8010 to add the final update for those matches? I would have done it myself, but I can't do it now due to the switch to 2 matches per day. Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as Advokaiser, Guru Champ! |
KamikazePotato posted... Oh my god BotW I did not hit her! Its not true! Its BS! I did not hit her! I did not! Oh hi, Mark. |
Three 80s in a row is a record right I just decided to change this sig. Blaaaaaaargh Advokaiser |
just bear in mind that BOTW has lost the board vote in each of the first two rounds |
Alright can we skip to tomorrow now to get back to the interesting matches The final Undisputed Champion in UCA history. |
Lightning Strikes posted... Three 80s in a row is a record right Pretty sure Link managed it in 2004 CATS, Ganondorf, and Yoshi. |
