Top 512 — Week 4 — Poll 20

Welcome to the #BGE2020 Elimination Round of 512!

Each game is seeded based on its performance in the two opening rounds of pools. Every game in the Upper Bracket has defeated multiple other games in 1-on-1 polls to get to this point. These are still the best of the best.

Polls are updated weekly, typically on 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!

Oh man I'm tempted to dig out my unplayed copy of EBA just to get a feel for it. I have sentimentality for Twilight Princess since it was my first Zelda, but I realize it's nothing exceptional overall. Hmm...

Honestly, do that, sometime this week.

I give Twilight Princess a bit more credit than a lot of people apparently do. I think it's a pretty competent Zelda game. Better than Skyward Sword and Ocarina of Time, but not as good as Wind Waker or Breath of the Wild.

EBA is very good for what it is, funny, very entertaining, but also a really good execution of the touchscreen rhythm micro-genre. Those Theatrhythm Final Fantasy games, for example, are atrocious compared to this (they are entirely carried by their excellent soundtracks rather than their shite gameplay).

I think you'd find it fun.

Twilight Princess is the game Ocarina of Time should have been, but doesn't get the credit because it refines more than it innovates. Still, for me, TP feels like the true expression of what OoT was trying to do.
