So in yesterday's poll, Final Fantasy 1 finished with a playrate of only 62.61%. This is nearly 5% lower than a playrate poll from 1 year ago. For reference, here are the 2 most recent playrate polls:

https://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/6932-
https://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/6551-

Both polls have a different set of options, so it's a bit harder to make solid comparisons here. Looking at even earlier polls suggests last year's poll was either an outlier, or last year's poll was flawed in some manner to otherwise inflate FF1's playrate. In the Board 8 wiki page on playrate, FF1's playrate is listed here:

Final Fantasy 1's Playrate history - 58.47% on 6/26/06, 58.50% on 2/16/07, 59.04% on 12/18/12, 67.21% on 12/18/16, and 62.61% on 12/19/17

The 67.21% playrate result seems out of line with the other results, although the playrate was trending upwards in every poll after the 2006 poll. I'd put yesterday's poll as being more accurate than the poll from 2016.
