Hi everyone, and welcome to the Best RPGs on Switch vote, Spring 2023 edition!
It’s going to be set up in the style of the hidden gems thread - to nominate a game, simply make a nomination post about it, and the ‘Yeah!’s of the community will act as a voting mechanic.
To make a nomination post, check the directory below to see if the game has already been nominated (go give it a yeah if so!) If not, make a fresh post and list the name of the rpg you’d like to put up for Fami’s consideration in bold, and add at least a paragraph of your thoughts and a piece of media (either a review, an image, a video, a piece of music or something, your choice!). Feel free to write as much or as little and make it as snazzy as you like within those limitations, I’ll add the first one below as an example.
Please only make one nomination per nomination post or we won’t know which title all those lovely yeahs are for. I’ll add a directory with links to all nominations in the post below too, so everyone can see at a glance what has already been nominated- any later duplicate posts will have their yeahs discounted in the final vote. However, feel free to chip in and reply with commentary on the nomination posts anyway- just use the template to mark up if something is an official nomination post to make it easy for everyone (and particularly me!) to keep track.
I’ll add up the scores at the end of April and make a fresh thread for the winners.
FAQ-
“Why this thread now?”
In the last 18 months or so we’ve had a pile of critically acclaimed rpgs added to the Switch library, so I thought it might be worth seeing where they fall amidst the popular perennials.
“But PK, I need even more rpg chat!”
Come find us in the fami rpg thread !
“Should I tell my friends on Fami to come vote in this thread so my favourite wins?”
Yes.
“When are you gonna stop raving about Octopath II!”
No further questions at this time, thanks
To lead us off I’ll pick perhaps an outside runner as an example, and leave the nominations posts for the big hitters to others. If you’ve already made a nomination post, please let a couple of members add some more before adding new ones, particularly on page 1, but there’s no limit to the number of nominations you can make really- the yeahs will tell the story in the end, and if anyone wants to talk about stuff that already has a nomination, that’s fine too, just don’t frame it as a nomination post.
Cut-off point for the yeah count is end of April, so there’s plenty of time, the directory should help cut down on duplicates and reduce the advantage of those on the first page too.
