Topic	An analysis of how each year performed in Game of the Decade 2
MechanicalWall 05/17/20 11:02:57 AM #93:	Other Thoughts: Do I need to belabor the point here? Look at how far this field of games got; outside of Mario Kart and Shovel Knight, NONE of them even made it past Round ONE. That is by far the most abysmal success rate of any year this decade. Its not even close. And its not like any of them looked good in defeat, and a lot of them were the victims of upsets and blowouts from games that arent even that strong. Destiny and Hearthstone got pushed to around 30% by Stardew Valley and Divinity 2. These are not top games in the field. Im fairly certain theyll end up in the bottom half of the x-stats. And they still scored blowouts here. Christ. I guess Bravely Default was ok; BotW and DQXIs match implying that it would beat FFXV head-to-head is so. Freakin. Funny. And South Park only getting doubled by 3H doesnt sound great, and it isnt, but it was yet another clue that Fire Emblem was not going to be anywhere near as dominant as wed hoped. Bayonetta 2 was another game that had let us know ahead of time that its opponent, Nier Automata, wasnt all that, but unfortunately it wasnt until the following Round that people realized that of course Platinum SFF would be a thing. In the unadjusted x-stats for Division 8 (a division that was otherwise SFF free), Bayo 2 is below Journey. Whats easier to believe, that Bayo 2 became significantly weaker since 2015 with a Switch release under its belt (or that Journey got an insane boost, which based on Skyrims end performance, it didnt), or that it got SFFed? Platinums fanbase is hardcore, and you can bet that a lot of people who own one of those games owns the other. I dont know why people were dunking on me for suggesting this when a lot of much more dubious reasons for SFF were commonly accepted, but its nice to be so thoroughly vindicated by pretty much every piece of information that eventually came to light. Enough words wasted on this year. The worst thing is, it actually has competition for absolute worst of the decade. Yes, really. Final Rating: F - Badbadbadbadbadbadbad. Bad. ~~Goodn't~~ --- If you're only on this board to whine about "SJWs", please redirect whatever you type on to the nearest trash can. And hop in after it. <cite>MechanicalWall posted [p:939291203] in An analysi... [t:78682510]...</cite> <quote>Other Thoughts: Do I need to belabor the point here?
