Xenoblade X was largely criticized by fans of the first game for its plot. A letdown both coming off the amazing plot of XC1 and the setup premise for XCX made it seem like it'd be equally/more amazing and it just...fell on its face.
That being said, the exploration and combat in XCX were top notch and I think after XC2's awful story and characters, XCX has become remembered more fondly since it at least had great side quests and all the incredible gameplay.

Can only speak for myself, but Undertale pissed me off for going over a bunch of less-known/appreciated great games that I loved in that contest. If it wrecked OoT in round 1 I wouldn't have cared, but its trail of destruction was needless and wanton. I don't even like OoT much, when it came down to the two of them I didn't even cast a vote because I wanted both to lose.
So yeah, damn right I anti-voted it. If the whole rallying bs was about keeping the always-winners from winning, why not just rally against them early? Oh, b/c you want the accolade of your pet favorite game downing the most popular one in the late rounds? Boo hoo, then.
(if it were up to me, winners for best game/character ever would be retired from future contests, so no game/character could win over and over again, but GameFAQS doesn't do that)

Was Witcher 3 really that underrated on this board? Anywhere online, I usually see it mentioned almost as much as BotW for the best game this gen/decade/etc....
