I got counterpicked twice, which I expected.
-
Everyone forgot about Metal Wolf, which was hype.
-
A three-hour long draft session, that was. Didn't feel that long, I had fun. And stress. We saw some solid picks there. Also bold picks. Even a few dumb picks? In any case this really spiced up the year, a cool meta game to play. Thanks everyone! Slim especially.
-
Now to wait and pray that Anthem is good and The Last of Us Part II doesn't come out. I'm also a tad worried that Griftlands won't come out.
-
@Sentinel-Beach Dumb picks add to the fun! :D
-
I'm sorry I missed the draft. Thanks Tokyo for taking care of me. I actually think TLOU Pt II will release in 2019 and it'll be like 98 on Metacritic, so I think I'm pretty set with this pick alone. I don't think Anthem will score low either.
What's funny is that I have a bet for a $25 PSN card that Days Gone will score in the 65-70s so now Days Gone is a pony in two races and I need different results for both.
-
@dipset Well your best outcome I guess is that it scores low 70s, so you still get the gift card and a couple points. Just gotta hope Nintendo and Sony hit it out of the park.... this year.
-
The drafting session was so much fun! Seeing my favorite picks get stolen from me was especially painful, lol. Can't say I'm not happy with my list though, even if it's way off from what i imagined it would be. Counter picking Ghost of Tsushima hurts a bit (i have to believe that it wont come out this year, as much as i don't want it to), but other than that it's great.
-
Wait how do we get the pictures of our drafts?
Granted only having a phone to check this, might have missed something.
-
I of course had to have Ooblets, my heart and soul. Also, @Inustar I just used the snipping tool.
-
I'm feeling confident all of these games will come out this year... and that's about it.
I'll be working on organizing a list of expected release dates, should be up sometime today.

@sabotagethetruth said in EZA Forum FantasyCritic League signup EDIT: My league is full! (you can start your own though!):

That might actually be the deciding factor.
-
I've gone ahead and created a Google Doc ordering the release dates of what has been chosen, who chose it, and if it has a counterpick. I'll link it here instead of flooding this space with a lot of data.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1WKUXBjlUoP73NVyKVuBgd2N1V4neP7buWDGQtXk-1WM/edit?usp=sharing
The data is organized by 3 sheets at the bottom. Date is first, grouped by team is next, and games in alphabetical order is last.
-
@tokyoslim Yeah, I think my games are solid but I am worried that none have release dates
-
We are 4 days away from first blood. Two drafted games come out on the 18th:
TEAM GARUDA: Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown
Youtube Videoand
CAPN'S QUARTERS: Travis Strikes Again: No More Heroes
Youtube VideoWhich one of these will score highest on Opencritic?
Travis Strikes Again has been counter-picked by Tyrell Corporation. Do we really think this game will score lower than 70?
Is anyone picking these games up?
-
Already pre-ordered AC7 (first ever pre-order for me btw), so you know that i'm really excited for this. I have the utmost confidence that it will at the very least get better a score than Assault Horizon (78 on Metacritic). My guess is 84-86.
As for Travis Strikes Back, i don't know how to feel about it to be honest. It looks kinda cool, giving me Furi vibes, but it doesn't really interest me as much as i thought before. Switch seems perfect for that kind of game so i'll say it wouldn't go below 70. Guessing 75-78.
-
I mean, unless Ace Combat 7 really messes up there is almost no way it scores less than Travis Strikes Again.
