That was certainly the consensus precontest though It had the plurality of Gurus, but not quite the majority. 53% of the Gurus had something other than Skyrim in the finals, and for many of the 47% of us who did, we weren't exactly awash with confidence. For example, I went with Skyrim, but Skyrim/Witcher was my most debated decision of the bracket. --- Yoblazer https://imgur.com/gByqgPg <cite>CaptainOfCrush posted [p:938905752] in Contest St...

LamarJackson 05/09/20 10:36:04 PM #359:	Sharinnegan posted... Dark Souls is used as a point of reference so often that it literally became a meme to see things being compared to it in reviews. "this is like dark souls" "that game is the dark souls of xxxx" "it feels like dark souls". Skyrim had that going for a while ("skyrim with guns" etc) but it died down fairly quickly. DS is still maybe the single game used most often by mainstream gaming media to describe other games. Depends on what you mean by influential, I guess. Like there are a ton of niche action games that are "soul clones", but how many of them are selling 10-20 million copies like the games that Skyrim influenced? Skyrim is much more influential on the big scale than Souls was. --- https://imgur.com/6aYmEPY You can't stop him, you can only hope to contain him <cite>LamarJackson posted [p:938905968] in Contest St...

CaptainOfCrush 05/09/20 10:38:01 PM #361:	transience posted... there sure has been a lot of talk here about how Witcher was a lock for the finals. At this point, I think we're all just certain in Witcher's impressive SFF ability. I have no idea if it could even eclipse Skyrim's 60% against Pokemon. Basically, I wouldn't be terribly surprised if Skyrim and Witcher both fare about equally against the formidable Nintendo/Square stuff, but Witcher's ability to soul-snatch every other Western game puts it clearly higher on the overall totem pole than Skyrim. --- Yoblazer https://imgur.com/gByqgPg <cite>CaptainOfCrush posted [p:938906048] in Contest St...

MechanicalWall 05/09/20 11:34:18 PM #389:	Before the contest started I thought Smash would be the clear #2, but now... that Xenoblade result was deeply unimpressive unless there was ZERO SFF involved, and even than that only puts Smash 9 points over P4. Meanwhile Witcher is running 4 points ahead and counting on P5. --- If you're only on this board to whine about "SJWs", please redirect whatever you type on to the nearest trash can.
