Divinity II not being turbofodder is still one of the bigger shockers.

its a shock for people who have never played the game sure.

its one of the highest rated games on pc switch ps4 and xbox one. Game is insanely respected. This isnt your average jrpg like a octopath traveller.

I like this one cause Geralt will soon be chlling in his bath watching BotW get crushed by the moon.

if you assume 2015 Witcher 3 = 2020 Witcher 3, currently MM beats BOTW with 55.13%

which bodes well for BOTW in the bonus poll, at least indirectly

10 users fell off the Second Chance Top 50. Mexicola, Chansey, TheMightyPeanut, HeroicSpiderPig, Jesse_Custer, Steiner, TienLen, PunkRockGiik, Denzokuken and BigK1016 didn't quite make it to the pre-finals Top 50.


And my Chansey account only fell off because I made a mistake and picked the wrong winner. I must have moved the slider in the wrong direction and didn't realize the mistake during the bracket entry period. So that likely ends any chance of getting one of my accounts to finish on the leaderboard unless Witcher gets a successful rally to win the contest.

Without that mistake, my Chansey account would have scored a 48 on yesterday's match for a total score of 656 and a placement of either 22nd or 23rd on the Second Chance leaderboard.

I'd like to praise Geraldo in thanks, because it literally wouldn't happen without him

Speaking of whom, that f***ing Henry Cavill picture actually made it in I'm speechless
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 am 1 point off the leaderboard! Might get on it if someone above me picked anything other than BoTW.... probably not happening.
LusterSoldier 5/12/2020 6:06:24 PM#260
I have one account on the leaderboard right now which did not pick BotW, so it would drop off if Witcher doesn't rally its way to a win today.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt vs. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
Registered Vote Result:
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - 4880 (53.90%)
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - 4173 (46.10%)

Anonymous Vote Result:
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - 4691 (58.10%)
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - 3383 (41.90%)

Despite both being WRPGs, Skyrim was heavily favored by registered users by slightly more than 4% over the anonymous users. Brackets can't fully explain this as Witcher had a higher prediction percentage than Skyrim in the round prior to meeting up here. At best, the main bracket contest was pretty evenly split between both games.

If the registered user bonus is used for the bonus match, then I'll be able to provide registered/anonymous user splits for the bonus matches. I have a way of calculating this even without publicly listed stats on the official stats page.

You can always try the Discord servers, but i dont want a rally to happen, if Witcher 3 were to win, let it win from the users here, if not then it simply is not the choice of GameFaqs for game of the decade.
The only good thing that will come out from a rally is watching Zelda fans get angry about the poll result, it will be hilarious.
Sharinnegan 5/12/2020 6:36:23 PM#275
if BoTW does turn out to indirectly = Ocarina, how strong does that make Witcher 3 in an all games contest? would it crack the top 10?

Skyrim getting weaker over time was talked about extensively pre-contest and has the benefit of being clearly documented.

Better yet is FFV creeping up on GTAV.
