Bottom 768 — Week 5 — Poll 19

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!

Both good games, but I like Skyward Sword a little more.

This is tough. I like Heretic best of the Hexen series, and Skyward Sword failed to capture me the way Twilight Princess did. I'm going to go with Hexen, though, for blending a bit of quest and item fetch mechanics into the typical FPS format, something that almost makes it feel a little like a first-person RPG-lite.
