Bottom 1024 — Week 28 — Poll 1

Post by This Old Neon »

Welcome to the #BGE2020 Elimination Round Lower Bracket!

Each game in the lower bracket is still seeded based on its performance in the two opening rounds of pools! Every game in the lower bracket has already been defeated by another game in a 1-on-1 poll to get to this point. This is their chance to claw their way back into the main event... but the stakes are high. The games that lose in these polls are out of the tournament for good! The games that survive will face the next crop of upper bracket losers in the next round.

Polls are updated weekly, typically on Saturday... or Sunday or Monday. Check back throughout the week to make sure you don't miss a vote!

HOW TO VOTE

This is easy. You only get one vote per poll. The game with the most votes wins. In the event of a tie, the higher seed advances, so don't get complacent!

This was very difficult for me. AMFV is a wonderful piece of IF and a game I would readily vote for in many other contexts. But The Witcher 2 really improved that series dramatically versus the original. I like the first game a lot, but it has a number of problems - control being one of the biggest. The overtly pandering nature of the sex conquest cards is not something in its favor, either, really. The second game improves on everything - story, visuals, sound, controls - possibly the best of the series (3 gets a little too deep into open world silliness for me).
