[Wunderbar]

You can't pick multiple responses.

 

[Wunderbar]

also Underrail Infusion is most likely a 2023 release...

 

[Plane Escapee]

Infinitron poll = not working as intended.

 

[Krivol]

New Atom game - I loved base game, and after few hours with stand-alnoe DLC I'm expecting even better game.

 

[NJClaw]

(multiple responses allowed)

 

[EveHC]

The new expeditions game, hope it didn't get scrapped.

 

[Taka-Haradin puolipeikko]

These claims about poll irregularities are being disputed!

 

[NJClaw]

14. Realms Beyond: Ashes of the Fallen (Ceres Games)
Release Date: TBA
The developers of Chaos Chronicles reform to develop a spiritual successor. Turn-based combat using the D&D 3E OGL ruleset.

Also where the fuck is the mighty Black Geyser: Couriers of Darkness?

 

[Taka-Haradin puolipeikko]

Kinda interesting to approach those games with "if you could choose only one" -mindset.

Spoiler

I chose Fallen Gods

Spoiler

Mainly because Realms Beyond is probable vaporware

 

[ghostdog]

At least half of those games won't be released in 2021.

Some won't be released at all...

Also, how do multiple vote polls work?

 

[normie]

Urban Strife and Colony Ship

I've seen nothing to indicate I should get hype for Infusion 2021, I would of course

I'll be looking forward to Stellar Tactics every year

 

[SoupNazi]

I don't really look forward to games anymore. It helps me to deal with the fact that everything is shit.

But given I've bought and played the EA version of BG3, and I loved DA:O2, I'm looking forward to that. I'm especially looking forward to playing it with the group of people I played Origins with, as those were hours upon hours of fun, drinking and just in general a kind of social experience, even if online.

 

[V_K]

(multiple responses allowed)

Not just that, you also can't see who voted for BG3 to shame them publicly.
Also the exclusion of Skald is pure decline.

 

[Alphons]

Voted for Colony Ship, but I'm also waiting for:

• Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous
• ATOM: Trudograd
• Space Wreck
• Urban Strife
• Prometheus Wept
• Encased

Infusion will come out probably in 2023/4. I'm also hoping third Expedition gets finally announced.

 

[Sentinel]

Don't care about any of them.

 

[KeighnMcDeath]

I won't vote for Steam only games so that will clip off a lot of choices.

 

[gurugeorge]

Waaaaah! I wanna pick Pathfinder AND Solasta!!!! Waaaah!!!!

 

[Infinitron]

Sorry guys, I'm retarded. Reset the poll so we can have a fresh start.

Also the exclusion of Skald is pure decline.

And also added this and Code of the Savage.

 

[Abu Antar]

I voted on every game in the poll.

 

[karoliner]

Most of the options look like trash.

 

[Bester]

Fuck you, kike.

 

[sser]

BG3
Saregnar
Colony Ship
Fallen Gods
SKALD
Solasta
Stellar Tactics


Probably most excited for Stellar Tactics and SKALD.

 

[Krivol]

WHERE! IS! BLACK! GEYSER! ?

 

[normie]

come on, we need to see who our choice bros are
