ctesjbuvf 05/20/20 10:42:34 AM #112:	Round 1 Division 5 Day 10 God of War 84.92% The Talos Principle 15.08% Prediction Percentage 96.10% God of War was hyped to be something that could upset some #1 seeds before the contest. The game was very well received, and it got very close to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate in the final Game of the Year poll of 2018, a poll that people like to being up more often that it probably should be, but nevertheless served to hype God of War quite a bit. God of War was however put in division of The Witcher 3, which had the potential to be the worst one you could draw other than of course Breath of the Wild. God of War did its best to live up to its hype, by almost cracking 85%, something that is never a bad result. It was against The Talos Principle, which is one of the weakest games of the bracket, but again, getting a percentage among the best of the contest isnt bad. This match didnt make its chances of living up to the hype worse. The problem was that The Witcher 3 did almost just as well on Assassins Creed Odyssey, and while those two are more similar, Assassins Creed is also a much bigger name than The Talos Principle. God of War looked to be in a very similar situation to Super Mario Galaxy 2, which also demolished fodder but looked right ahead at The Witcher 3. The chances of God of War making it out of the division were not looking great. The Talos Principle is just happy to be the contest. Its one of the most obscure games in the bracket, but perhaps being ported to consoles in recent years gave it just enough exposure to make it in. It probably needed to be against something unknown or something that gets anti-voted if it were to do better than this. Considering its a #15 seed, only the latter seems possible, so I guess Three Houses was its best bet? Or The Last of Us if the leaks of the second game had emerged earlier? Its a fun game if youre into puzzle stuff, so hopefully its contest showing made some play it that had not already. --- Guinness Book of World Records is the name of the diary that belongs to azuarc, the winner of the Game of the Decade II guru contest. <cite>ctesjbuvf posted [p:939440088] in ~~ Ctes' P...
