Oh we might have our first close match here between TWD and Bastion. First update basically a stall.

halo reachs splits tells me everything I need to know - with so many brackets vs. votes this year, bracket votes are going to mean a lot.


We did have an unusually long bracket entry period of about 4 weeks because of the 2 contest delays, so that means more potential voters who will be very active in the voting process for this contest.

Probably giving BD a bit too much credit there
I'm not. I'm just really down on Ni no Kuni and think it loses to basically any game that people have an iota of emotions for.

I would argue the opposite. Sekiro is new, much more critically acclaimed, and has been somewhat popular on Twitch and those gaming marathons (AGDQ, SGDQ). Ni no Kuni, to my knowledge, has been invisible for over half a decade.

But if you'd seen it on Twitch or GDQ then you wouldn't skip the match. I'm talking about those who would've abstained, and for sure Ni no Kuni's picture makes it stand out more.

dq11 is the worst game in the bracket for trails to draw. I bet a lot of people think dq stomps this eightpack based on this but Im not as sure.

As someone who detests all things TWD, I would love if it choked.

Replace "TWD" with "horror" and I'm in.

i think people who would've abstained are more likely to recognize the "Sekiro" name as 2019's GotY winner and just vote for that because they heard of it.

it has a sequel that got a demo yesterday and is nintendo-exclusive, It'd definitely beat Ni No Kuni handily.

I mean sure BD could win, that wasn't what I argued against, but the vast majority of voters don't care for it either.

Still think it was given more credit than it probably should.

Hmm, I'm glad I decided I wouldn't dare picking TWD in LMS today.

I take that back with the cut BD just made.

I was actually somewhat hyped for Ni no Kuni (at least for the Ghibli connection) and dropped it after about 10 hours... it was just really, really bland. It surprises me enough people remembered it to nom it for the contest to be honest.

Bastion (and especially the developer's follow up, Transistor) I quite enjoyed though. Good to see it holding up.

DQXi obviously squashes the rest of this division. It got a highly publicized Switch port, a place in Smash Bros, and a fairly well-known franchise name. That's more than enough.

Oh yeah, Cold Steel would be more popular than Sky. For one thing, it's easily accessible on modern consoles, unlike Sky. Plus, Cold Steel III is about to get ported to Switch, which is the magic formula for anything!

(it would still be weak though, just not this weak)

Well since about S6 or 7 of the series, TWD's fandom has been on a steep decline. Game's awesome though.

Walking Dead's the underdog at this point. 0/3 on the first three debated matches =/

We have two more conceivably debatable matches tomorrow with Vs/Fallout and Horizon/Fortnite. Is anyone else growing less confident already?!

Was it even debated? Feels like everyone had TWD without thinking.
