#BGE2020 - Round 2 - Pool 106

Post by This Old Neon »

Welcome to the second round of #BGE2020 pools!

Each game is randomly seeded into pools using the sequence generator at Random.org. There's no seeding, no ranking, and no preference or prioritization.

The results of the pools will determine how each game stacks up in the elimination rounds, coming... realistically in early 2021.

HOW TO VOTE

Voting is ranked, but it's not super intuitive, so listen up.
  • You have 6 total votes to distribute.
  • You can only select up to 3 options.
  • You can only give each option up to 3 votes.
  • NOTE: The number you pick is not the RANK of your choice (i.e. 1st, 2nd, 3rd), but the number of VOTES you're giving it.
  • The more votes (bigger numbers) a game gets, the better for that game.
EXAMPLES
  • You could pick three games and order them by giving them 3, 2, and 1 votes.
  • If you like three games equally, you could give them 2, 2, and 2 votes.
  • If you only like two games, you could give them 3 and 3 votes (or 3 and 2, etc.).
This gives you a lot of granularity for how you assign your votes and thereby a lot of influence over which games can do well. Use your power wisely!

If you have questions, ask before voting! :neon:

Timely vote for The Final Fantasy Legend, a.k.a. SaGa 1, seeing as it's being ported to Switch in a compilation with its two immediate Game Boy sequels. Great game.

Vay is a little-known Sega CD RPG. Sega CD was actually surprisingly good for Japanese RPGs, maybe as a late-gen juke into territory that the SNES had traditionally been strong in.

Had to go with Rastan here due to its awesomeness. It’s too tough though but oh so cool.
I never thought I would feel this way, but now I know. Now I know. I never thought I would see things as I see them now, but now I know. I never thought I would hurt so bad, but now I know. Now I know.

Panzer Dragoon II Zwei is one of my favorite redundant titles and a very good 3D shooter. I look forward to its HD remake by the same folks that remade the first.
You got BOOST power!
