If you want to add more than one answer, put them here in the side-bar.

This could take a very long time. Weeks. Maybe months. It could even be a whole year.

How many maximum answer options does this allow?

I'm going to consider that Doom to be the original Doom, not the new one with the same title

Let's get something other than FPS in here, for the sake of variety

How about Demon's/Dark Souls
1 hour ago
Probably Demon's if the goal is to be as patrician as possible

I almost want to avoid putting down modern games because almost every one of them have some weird drama attached

Hard to say which is the best Miyazaki ARPG
1 hour ago
Even the best ones have massive flaws

True. I personally enjoy Dark Souls more, but I think the general consensus is that DeS is more tightly designed, which I'd agree with.

Honestly Bloodborne is on par with DaS. But like bb790762 said, going into modern games creates a surge of drama

Regardless of what ends up on the list people are going to be upset with it
1 hour ago
I guess the question would be is it better to include a broader scope of games and have people be upset that a game they didn't like got in, or is it better to keep the list really small and tight, and have people be upset that their favorite game isn't on it?

Well, my additional option is already out, its your call to make. For some genres like RTS, Grand strategy or JRPGs for example its hard to find a definitive game that represents the best of its genre
1 hour ago
Nah, I'm out of options too

Once we get a list, I want to gather together short blurbs from people who want to "sponsor" a game on /v/ itself. Something like you might see on a box cover.

Thats a testimonial
1 hour ago
honestly, if we're not going to do something because someone will get upset, you might as well not do it. someone getting assmad to some degree is inevitable

That's sort of why I thought a wiki would look better. If the idea is to have a definitive chart for /v/ essentials, it doesn't make a lot of sense to have the testimonials come from one person
1 hour ago
If we had a wiki we could have as many different testimonials as people felt like adding. If someone didn't like the comments on a game they could add their own. It'd be way easier than making a new chart is.
1 hour ago
That's why I just want to have people make comments, and then pick ones that give off a feeling of selling the game. It has to be from someone who really feels the game they're shilling is GOAT.

If the person who honestly believes Morrowind is the greatest RPG of all time is writing a blurb on Demons Souls, it's not going to have the right spirit in it.
1 hour ago
Actually not a bad idea. I like the idea that the chart is trying to sell you on each individual game there, but I think part of the goal should be to warn people if there are flaws in a game. I don't like the way the current wiki is set up where every entry is lukewarm and middle-of-the-road though.
