[This Old Neon]

Welcome to the #BGE2020 BRONZE MEDAL MATCH!

These games both lost their first and second elimination matches. They're out. They're finishing in 3rd and 4th place. So we might as well figure out which game deserves which rank! The winner will take the BRONZEST MEDAL EVER!!! while the loser will finish in 4th place overall.

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, there will be no ties, so vote!

My vote here goes to Chrono Trigger. Not my favourite RPG of all time, but certainly one of the best. Despite its reputation for being expansive and having lots of endings and such, it's actually quite a tight little plot. The only way this will take anyone over 100 hours is if they're running multiple endings to try to get everything.

This game does individual character stories/arcs better than Final Fantasy VI, its most usual competitor. The combat system is also snappy and fun for a menu-based turn-based system, with each character having individuality (again, better than FF6) while still all being viable enough to let you run whoever you want in your team.

It goes without saying that the music is excellent.

Alright, I gave these two weeks this time just to make sure everyone who wanted to have their say could have their say and to make up for some staggering of the initial release of the polls. But now the ballot boxes are locked and we have an official "THIRD BEST GAME EVER!!!": Chrono Trigger!

DOOM takes 4th.

I'll be making some summary posts with stats, as well as side-events, in the coming weeks.
