Master Moltar 04/08/20 6:48:41 PM #390:	Round 1 The Last of Us vs. Crusader Kings II Moltars Analysis Blowout of the contest? Probably not, but it will be up there. Seems similar to the GoW match so Ill go with a similar percentage. Moltars Bracket: The Last of Us Moltars Prediction: The Last of Us 84% ____________________________________________________________________________ transiences Analysis Crusader Kings 2. Oh man. Look, that game has its supporters, and its supporters will die for it. But it's a Paradox game, and Paradox games are played by Paradox fans and not much else, especially on this website. CK2 is a political maneuvering game that entrances a certain kind of person (to the tune of thousands of hours of playtime -- CK2 heads are among the most dedicated fanbase in existence), but everyone else either glazes over or, more likely, just never hears about it at all. I know other people say this a lot, but I try to only use it when it's truly appropriate: this is one of the weakest games we'll ever see in a contest. The Last of Us is a huge game with a huge sequel coming. It's one of those games like Bloodborne that gets legit GOTD hype from everywhere. What I'm trying to say here is that a GOTD type of game going up against a complete nothing like CK2 is going to make Last of Us look really good. We're going to look at this result and compare it to Dark Souls's on Hotline Miami and call it the clear favourite. It's not exactly fair, because CK2 is such a unique thing whereas Hotline Miami can be enjoyed by anyone. But it'll happen. transience's prediction: The Last of Us with 86.66% ____________________________________________________________________________ Leonharts Analysis Were basically going to be comparing every match The Last of Us has with Dark Souls each round until they inevitably meet in the division finals. TLOU did pretty well in 2015, doubling up Halo 3 and then putting up a respectable 40% on Kingdom Hearts II. I have no clue what Crusader Kings II even is, but I imagine its going to be the 25th game I call one of the weakest games in the contest! This time, I might even be right! This should be ugly. Leonharts Vote: The Last of Us Leonharts Prediction: The Last of Us with 82.11% ____________________________________________________________________________ Kleenexs Analysis The Last of Us looked shockingly anemic back in 2015. Its not going to lose here, but much like Uncharted, it and all its other contest entries are way weaker than their apparent popularity would have you believe. Crusader Kings is like...one of the freeset freebies in the bracket. TLOU is probably going to look really good at the end of this match (cue massive underperformance), but I wouldnt put too much stock in that given its opponent.
