On the bright side, Skyrim and Witcher have similar trends, so they may not draw any votes in the first five minutes. Agent Triple Zero at your service! This line reserved for the true greatone, the 2020 Guru contest winner. |
CaptainOfCrush posted... Skyrim can't establish itself as the favorite against anything in this match IMO. The Mario Kart series is too weird. It'll need a very strong showing against Pokemon to raise its stock with me.Skyrim might lose to Pokemon outright.

It'll need a very strong showing against Pokemon to raise its stock with me.I feel like Dark Souls probably took itself out of the running. It did very well against MGS5, but didn't really live up to the expectations it needed to be a Skyrim killer. Persona 5 is a wildcard, which is thematically fitting. It's Reyn Time.

NieR staying in this! Agent Triple Zero at your service! This line reserved for the true greatone, the 2020 Guru contest winner. |
Keep it going Automata |
KamikazePotato posted... Did we ever hash out the % Skyrim needed to be the favorite against Witcher 3i would take it. $20 bet too. mk8 beat uncharted 4 60-40, winner of 200+ goty awards. it has a shiny nintendo logo on it. smg 1 & 2 have never performed well in these contests. they were critically acclaimed upon release but seem not to have lasting appeal on this site. smb3/w/64 beat them by huge margins.

Witcher / Skyrim seems likely i love persona 5 but barring a rally it hasnt got a chance against witcher 3. Maybe in an alternate universe where atlus had made a switch port. |

Sens-Hangar_18 posted... Skyrim players exposed as poke e man lovers!I love both! I am definitely what one would call a "genwunner" though if such a term exists for only thinking 1-3 exists.

Let's not automatically pencil in Pokemon yet! Pokemon would need to do better than this to seriously think it can beat Skyrim though. |
INTERWEBUSER posted... i would take it. $20 bet too. dragon age won over 100+ GOTY awards and how did that do? uncharted 4 is probably the weakest uncharted game. FFXIV is an MMO. MK barely got 60 on them. Games like Galaxy and Odyssey would destroy it odyssey more so. |
Leonhart4 posted... Let's not automatically pencil in Pokemon yet! I don't even think Pokemon is the favorite here if Nier is already cutting at this point. https://imgur.com/6aYmEPY You can't stop him, you can only hope to contain him |
Leonhart4 posted... Let's not automatically pencil in Pokemon yet! i mean id take both Pokemon and Nier over MK easily. skyrim probably beats both in the low 50’s. and id put maruo galazy 2 above both pokemon and nier as well or at least on the same level |
I'm
really proud of Nier. I still remember when this series was getting
made fun of by 'professional' reviewers who couldn't follow directions.
Now it's hanging with a nostalgic mainline Pokemon game - a kneecapped
one, but Pokemon nonetheless. It's Reyn Time. |
Yeah,
I never really considered NieR as a world beater, but that it could
take down a weaker G/S/C proxy. A close match just means the winner
gets to lead at the freeze before rolling over to Skyrim's late start. Agent Triple Zero at your service! This line reserved for the true greatone, the 2020 Guru contest winner. |
Yuri_LowelI posted... i mean id take both Pokemon and Nier over MK easily. Skyrim is going to get a much higher percentage than whoever wins this. |
where are all those people saying HGSS= GSC??? no seriously come out of hiding. You need to be shamed. |
Pokemon tanked really hard on gamefaqs after SwSh RBY might even slip out of the top 10 on this site at this rate 2 line break(s), 160 characters allowed |
KamikazePotato posted... I'm really proud of Nier. I still remember when this series was getting made fun of by 'professional' reviewers who couldn't follow directions. Now it's hanging with a nostalgic mainline Pokemon game - a kneecapped one, but Pokemon nonetheless. i mean the first nier would get tripled most likely. automata is on another level. |
Sword/Shield has absolutely nothing to do with the older Pokemon games. It's Reyn Time. |
keep on rising, Skyrim. https://imgur.com/6aYmEPY You can't stop him, you can only hope to contain him |
Automata sporting the mark of the beast This cannot continue This cannot continue |
GranzonEx posted... Pokemon tanked really hard on gamefaqs after SwShI would not go that far. RBY is absolute nostalgia fuel. That would require GameFAQs to seriously shift away from 90s games.

KamikazePotato posted... I still remember when this series was getting made fun of by 'professional' reviewers who couldn't follow directions.? I would love to hear this. Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest http://www.twitch.tv/ultimaterializerx ; https://imgur.com/dsnL40n |
Leonhart4 posted... Skyrim is going to get a much higher percentage than whoever wins this. on Mk? Yeah i dont doubt that. Im saying both pokemon and nier would easily beat mario kart. |
Yuri_LowelI posted... automata is on another level. Yeah, this is a multi million selling action RPG that appeals to the kinda audience Gamefaqs still has. Seems weird if people thought pre-contest it wouldn't have a chance against a Pokemon remake. https://imgur.com/6aYmEPY You can't stop him, you can only hope to contain him |
Yuri_LowelI posted... on Mk? Yeah i dont doubt that. Im saying both pokemon and nier would easily beat mario kart. Well yeah, but I think it'd be within 60/40. |
UltimaterializerX posted... ? I assumed he was referring to professional reviewers dissing on the original NieR I have been more into visual novels and learning Japanese recently. With some fighting games and Switch games on the side. https://twitter.com/superange128 |
Skyrim reminds me of GTAV. Crap early board vote and % and then it just keeps rising in %....until it hit a jrpg. lets not forget the journey match though. that skyrim dark souls match is going to FIREWORKS |
Nier
1 had a reviewer abandon it and write a scathing review because he
couldn't follow the marker on the minimap and kept fishing in the wrong
spot. The choice quote "my spirit is broken and the damage is done" is
an in-joke among my friends group. It's Reyn Time. |
Yah even if Skyrim rises like 5 or 6 more points the finals dream is dead and buried. Beating Dark Souls is as far as it goes 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. |
NowItsAngeTime posted... I assumed he was referring to professional reviewers dissing on the original NieRI guessed that much, but... you know. Link? Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest http://www.twitch.tv/ultimaterializerx ; https://imgur.com/dsnL40n |
Not what I wanted to see. |
NowItsAngeTime posted... I assumed he was referring to professional reviewers dissing on the original NieR the original nier was a very flawed game technically. The story philosophy and narrative were still great but automata just outs Taros vision in a more polished package. But even automata has issues such as level design and combat being a bit shallow but that story man....route C and Route E are INSANE |
Better update for Pokemon. Not out of the woods yet but I'm not sure Nier has the trends to reverse this. It's Reyn Time. |
The
original Nier lacked an iconic character design like 2B to get people
to try it, and the combat was pretty lackluster. Its the definition of a
cult classic. https://imgur.com/6aYmEPY You can't stop him, you can only hope to contain him |
KamikazePotato posted... Better update for Pokemon. Not out of the woods yet but I'm not sure Nier has the trends to reverse this. Guess you’re gonna have to go rally all those hentai subreddits |
2B what's happening? Last finished: Big Adventure of Owata's Life (PC), Blasteroids (ARC), Asteroids (Atari 8 Bit), Space Invaders (NEC PC-98). |

Its the definition of a cult classic.The upcoming remaster should make it more popular I did not hit her! Its not true! Its BS! I did not hit her! I did not! Oh hi, Mark. |
MechanicalWall posted... Yah even if Skyrim rises like 5 or 6 more points the finals dream is dead and buried. Beating Dark Souls is as far as it goes skyrim has no business being in the final anyway. witcher is just a vastly superior wrpg in general. More modern better narrative and just a more polished experience. |
UltimaterializerX posted... I guessed that much, but... you know. Link?It was on Joystiq, so it's no longer available as far as I know |
I mean how much more is Skyrim going to rise and how much did it rise against journey? |
Yuri_LowelI posted... skyrim has no business being in the final anyway. They appeal to different kinds of players. The Bethesda formula still hasn't been emulated well by any other WRPG, the whole "every NPC is unique with their own behaviors and lives, every item is interactable, etc". Witcher 3 is a more polished version of a different style of WRPG thats more story focused and less interaction with the world. https://imgur.com/6aYmEPY You can't stop him, you can only hope to contain him |

Witcher 3 is a more polished version of a different style of WRPG thats more story focused and less interaction with the world. but even the type of game skyrim is. Its old now. Bethesda need to evolve with ES6 |
GranzonEx posted... RBY might even slip out of the top 10 on this site at this rate Something would have to benefit enough to take its place though, and I see no candidates. Heck Ocarina of Time is probably the weakest it's ever been but it aint going anywhere. |
KamikazePotato posted... Better update for Pokemon. Not out of the woods yet but I'm not sure Nier has the trends to reverse this. Pokemon does not have a good night vote and morning vote, so Nier can use trends to reverse this as long as it doesn't fall into a deep hole before then. I think it can come back from a lead of 300 or less using only trends, anything more than that would probably require the help of rallies. Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as Advokaiser, Guru Champ! |
LamarJackson posted... Witcher 3 is a more polished version of a different style of WRPG thats more story focused and less interaction with the world. Meaning a much more comfy experience for those of us grown on jrpgs! Yeah I should have seen it coming. |
Skyrim will finish in the mid-60s at this rate. Not bad, but not great. I'd give it third best odds for reaching the final. Game of the Decade 2 - Current Score: 164/184 Today's Picks: TESV: Skyrim and Pokemon HG/SS |
