Fallout 76 was an absolute garbage piece of trash that was insulting to its fanbase

At worst Cyberpunk is a bit buggy and dissapointing.

CDPR also don'tmake games like Bethesda with s***ty outdated engines.

Cypberpunk is going to be hugely ambitious and inspired game regardless.

What if Skyrim scores the same % on MK8?

also this is the ONLY Nintendo game Witcher faces until BOTW. Unless pokemon upsets Skyrim

I'd take Skyrim to at least double Mario Kart, but if something like a 60-40 thing happened I'd be pretty worried.
It's an honor being part of Board 8's community.
If Skyrim only 60-40s Mario Kart 8 then it isn't getting out of the division.

I think this is pretty bad for Witcher 3, but it's not like anything but BotW is lighting the world on fire.

is it bad or is it bad for trying to get 40% on BOTW?

I mean Witcher is still a lock for me to get to Finals.
Skyrim is the type of game Mario Kart 8 would do best against, there's very little overlap between the two games thus MK8 benefits from the "at least I've played it" vote.

this performance is currently slightly below what Skyrim is expected to get based on past stats

Skyrim is likely weaker now but this doesn't scream "lock to the finals" to me. especially if Dark Souls ends up being stronger than Skyrim

... surely this goes both ways
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.
I think Witcher 3 retains its favourite status, but it's no longer as impressive as it was in the past two rounds. Besides, we need to see the other top games in action before we can pass final judgement.

Rallies don't work when a game is too far ahead or too far behind because the intended audience doesn't see the point.

I think its unfair to flip a match this big in front

Close matches? sure.

The Mario Kart series is one of those things where people like it, but you won't find too many people having it as a top 10 game so it avoiding a game with little Nintendo connection (I guess it was released on the Switch, but did anyone play that version in 2017?) is a boon.

neither witcher rally has any engagement so far, that fanbase probably needs to validation that Witcher 3 is game of the decade, they know it and they let the rest of the internet know it on an hourly basis

Like I said. ITs a small sample of votes. Current UK time is 4 am and match started 1 AM. The only people who are gonna vote are probably the FF7 fanboys still awake talking about the game

Lets not build excuses for Skyrim

Anything less than 60% would be an utter embarrassment.

That's what I was getting at. People are already saying that the performance is disappointing because Witcher 3 is undershooting Skyrim's projections against SMG2 and uh, that is probably not how this shakes out after 24 hours.

True but Witcher doesn't rise more than 2%. End game might be 61-39 Witcher at best

Well, I'm saying it doesn't necessarily mean Witcher 3 stays at 67% because the sample size is too small. Those kinds of discrepancies usually work themselves out as more people vote.

I will give Persona 15 minutes before collapse like FE, but this is JRPGfaqs. It could go 50/50 with Witcher out of nowhere.

Persona 5 going to the final would be utterly amazing.

Also a JRPG hasn't won a contest since FF7 in 2005...but yeah ok

Last round against Red Dead Redemption, Persona 4 Golden broke the record for smallest max lead by an entrant that led wire-to-wire.

This round's win against GTA V also ranks #7 on that list. It's the only entrant, be it game or character, to show up on the winning end of two matches in the Top 25, though there are three characters and one game that show up on the winning end of 1 and the losing end of another and one who shows up on the losing end of two.

Witcher 3's looking good, but I don't think this is an exceptional #2 contender-type of performance either. Skyrim was expected to do better in 2015 and I don't know how much Fallout 76 is supposed to hurt Skyrim when FO:NV is looking alright today. Maybe it hurt FO4...but Skyrim seems a little distant from Bethesda's current woes.

W3/Skyrim still feels really close and at the moment I'm sticking with Skyrim.

Skyrim's already underperformed its 2015 x-stat by four or so points so idk if this a point in its favor here.

Still, I'll be disappointed if Witcher doesn't crawl up to 60 at some point, hopefully when I wake up in 8 hours

Judging by the pick stats: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/features/gotd_stats

Persona 4 Golden and Xenoblade Chronicles are the two biggest upsets of the bracket thus far, with only 14.01% and 16.7% of people predicting them making it this far, respectively.

I don't think we can say anything about a Rockstar hierarchy actually. It looks like RDR is slightly stronger indirectly, though it's certainly within the uncertainties. But we don't know which game fans would side with if they met.

New Vegas is probably exempt from the deboost to a good extent because Bethesda didn't develop the game. They only published it.
