I'd give Mass Effect 2 a better shot at a 1 seed than Persona 5.

Also, I wonder if Allen will manipulate seeding the way he did with the first GOTD so you end up with games from the same series in the same divisions. He made a division that basically had no Square or Nintendo at all, and that was pretty cool.

He already said he's tweaking seeding by using metacritic and "other sources" so I'm sure he'll do that too

It's just his way of keeping Sonic 3 & Knuckles out yet again.

I dunno, I feel like the last character battle kinda showed that Mass Effects just not as relevant, and I know games arent characters, but I dont see how ME2 doesnt similarly fall, at least a little bit.

Meanwhile Persona matched ME in seeding in the last games contest and has no real reason not to gain strength, or at the very least not get a high nom tally

I think BotW, Smash Ultimate, Skyrim, Witcher 3, and GTA V are all pretty much locks for 1-seeds (assuming a 128-game bracket).

Three Houses, Persona 5, and Dark Souls are my bets to take the last three slots, with an outside shot of something like Last of Us, Mass Effect 2, Mario Odyssey, or Xenoblade in their place.

ME's stock fell too much. I'll be surprised to see ME2 be a 1-seed anymore.

My picks:

LoZ:BotW
TES5:Skyrim
GTA5
SSBU
The Last of Us
Dark Souls
REmake 2
Witcher 3

I think Shepard's performance in the biggest match of the contest was nothing short of impressive.

Oh right, my guess at 1 seeds. Considering the GameFAQs crowd makes this tricky, because some of the most pivotal or widely-played games of the decade won't catch a whiff of top billing. (Fortnite, LoL, PUBG, maybe even Minecraft)

Safe picks:
Breath of the Wild
Skyrim
Dark Souls series rep
Witcher 3

Likely:
Mass Effect 2
RDR 1 or 2
GTA V
Undertale

Possible:
SMG2/SMO
God of War
Persona 5
Minecraft

There is nothing, in any poll whatsoever, that suggests GTA V is a powerhouse in this site

2015 suggests it's the strongest GTA game here, and more importantly, it was one of two 2010s games to score a 1-seed in that contest.

you realize seeding isn't indicative of strength, right

see: GTAV getting a 1 seed in the 2015 contest which had no years restrictions

I wouldn't be surpised if GTAV misses the one seed. It has almost no B8 support that I see, and it's five years older on this site which could be a factor among non-B8er nominations. It will still get a pretty high seed, but I could see it falling short of the top 8 here.

The real question is how much digital loot they are selling.

Breath of the Wild
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
Skyrim
The Witcher 3
The Last of Us
Super Mario Odyssey
Dark Souls
Red Dead Redemption

I have a feeling RDR is the Rockstar game that has stuck in the consciousness more than GTAV, and it is probably stronger as well.

1 versus 4 is a pretty big seeding gap to reverse from 2015, especially when RDR's sequel will be taking nominations away from the original.

There's no way GTAV is not a 1 seed, it was last gaming contest, which was a stronger field, and has not really fallen since. Surprised to see how many people think otherwise. It needs a wewak division to be the favorite to go out of it, but it will be a 1 seed for sure. BotW, Skyrim and Ultimate are locks too. Then I would bet on ME2, Odyssey and Witcher 3 being as well, with the final spot being less certain.
