So this thing sits at 376th with a 58% win rate over 309 duels, which honestly tells me the voter pool is just too niche to place it fairly against the usual…

    So this thing sits at 376th with a 58% win rate over 309 duels, which honestly tells me the voter pool is just too niche to place it fairly against the usual suspects.

    Honestly fair point, my votes lean the same way.

    FramePlayer

    The voter pool argument feels like an excuse though, other niche genres still climb higher when they earn it...

    People keep pitting this against open world RPGs but the voter base clearly comes from different crowds entirely.

    IronPlayer

    You'd think the crowd difference would explain the win rate, but I still lost interest around the same act everyone mentions here.

    Honestly I've lost more sleep to this game than to any relationship I've had, and I don't even feel bad about ranking it this high.

    Pareil de mon côté, sauf que la première ligue m'a clairement perdu avant de m'accrocher pour de bon.

    Ça vient vraiment que de communautés différentes ou c'est juste plus dur d'accès, du coup?

    lo mío fue distinto, entré por streams y ni dormí esa semana, cero relación con perder el sueño por una relación real

    not sure why this sits where it does, the systems are deep but the onboarding is brutal for anyone new, feels overrated for casual voters

  5. BerryRunner

    Oh sure, it's deep, if by deep you mean a wiki tab open at all times just to understand your own character.
