The people who are more ingrained in the TL community seem to be much older and much more sensible on average. | ||

The world really did end. Yeah there's been some sad results so far...though I can't say I agree with everything :D Dark Soul's for me was much more enjoyable than Demon Souls but I loved both. I can see how some people might put Diablo 2 over BG2 though I wouldn't in 100 years, if they didn't like/play that type of game back in the day then its a easy choice to pick D2 which they probably played. I'm really sad Planescape: Torment went out so early =/ I would put that even over BG2 and definitely over NWN... This thread makes me want to revisit a lot of games >.< | ||

The people who are more ingrained in the TL community seem to be much older and much more sensible on average. Very good point. Thanks for making it. It's hard to remember all the time but TL is kind of like the whole London rats thing. They say whenever you see a rat there are 10 underground that you can't see. I guess that is the same with TL. Whenever you see a poster there are 10 lurkers or casual users. And yeah, they probably care less about video gaming and have a shallower appreciation of gaming/ have played less games. Although it is very sad, however you look at it, that so few people have played Baldur's Gate II or Deus Ex. And Chrono Trigger apparently. (Wtf) | ||

Or it's that the people who are posting are butthurt and want to vent their frustration, or they want to raise awareness for the game they want to win because the game is behind in the poll. | ||

Pick EVE people. It's the right answer. (If you pick WoW you will fail the test) | ||

I can see why BW (and sc2 kinda) were left out xD A few games that really deserved it didn't make it through (BG2, whyyyy)Sooo glad to see HoMM III made it so far! My favourite installment in one of my favourite strategy series (turn-based in this case, but w/e) Also thought it was fun to compare WC3 to DotA 2, considering WC3 means you get to play WC3 + custom modes...including DotA xD Couldn't say no to WC3, even without DotA... made for a great part of my teens. Finally, sad to see Curse of Monkey Island isn't making it through I know I'll be shot down, OoT is a great game, but Monkey Island...just too awesome to pass | ||

Well, I would argue that the sensible and mature thing would be to not vote in a category if you don't know BOTH games. That would dramatically alter the results. | ||
