BOTTOM 112 — Week 1 — Poll 2

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’m pulling for Wizardry here. Best dungeon crawler I’ve ever played. Kind of shockingly so really. Metroid Fusion is fun but doesn’t give you as much room to be a creative problem solver as Wizardry. I like having a lot of Liberty and Wizardry definitely offers that.
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.

Arg! I don’t get it.. but I often favor unpopular games so maybe it’s just another instance of that.

I have a feeling 100% of the people on the forum who have played the game voted for it. :D
