BOTTOM 320 — Week 1 — Poll 22

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 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!

I like Smash Ultimate, and it is a good improvement on the formula - but it IS a formula, and I think Melee is the more important / groundbreaking entry.

KOTOR 2 really interrogated Star Wars' setting in a way that that it needed. KOTOR started the job a bit with Jolee Bindo, but KOTOR 2 was more interesting and mechanically deeper. I think the only thing KOTOR2 did that I didn't like was the power-fantasy stuff that comes with Bioware territory, specifically what happens with almost all your companions.

Maybe the newer Star Wars shows have gone where KOTOR 2 did - finally. I'm not up to date on them.
