Testing out the poll feature for game of the year.
-
Great idea! Ok I will get this process started shortly, just want to do a trial poll to see what I can do with it!

Thanks @Diddums that’s really helpful. I’ve had a quick play with it and the more I think about it, I’m not sure a poll is the best way to do this? I personally think it would work best if everyone submitted their top 5 or 10 games in a list, rather than everyone just picking one game. That way we can have a proper list and countdown of our top 5 or 10 games. Aware that not everyone would have played 10 or more games that released this year so thought maybe 5 would be better? Was going to use a scoring system like this: 1st place: 5 points 2nd place: 4 points 3rd place: 3 points 4th place: 2 points 5th place: 1 point With a poll I wouldn’t be able to determine the ranking of everyone’s picks. It’s still doable, just less fair in my opinion? If the preference is to keep it on this site rather than an external survey, I would be happy for everyone to message me their lists if that would work? Let me know your thoughts, really keen to get this to work well for everyone and seems to be something we all want to do!

Great point, sorry still quite new here and haven’t used all the features! Had a quick look at the polls page and couldn’t see how to set one up, might be missing it or don’t know if I need to be given permission? Is there a way to make the results private so only I can see? Think it would make it much more interesting if no one had any idea what game won until it’s announced?!

Sounds like there is definitely enough interest to do this! I will set up a survey for everyone to fill out, but I will wait a few weeks before sending it. This will give everyone a few weeks over the Christmas break to catch up or finish any games on their backlog (I know I have a few I want to get to), that way we will get a more complete list. I will send the survey around the 30th/31st December, and will leave it open for a week to allow for people to see it and fill it out. Il hopefully then be able to share the final standings and the video a week or so later! Hopefully that sounds like a good plan to everyone, let me know if you think there’s a better way. Should I send the survey earlier and leave it open longer? I like the idea of adding an award for each FG forum category @Riff Machine , so I will add those to the survey too!

Great! I’ll wait for a few more responses before kicking things off, the more people we have involved the more interesting it will be!

Inspired by last nights Game Awards. I thought it would be cool to organise an awards show for Forever Gaming! I’m still new here so not sure if this already happens or not, but I would be happy to volunteer to organise this. My initial thoughts are that everyone would submit to me their Top 5 (or 10?) games of the year, in order. I would then use a points system (top game getting most points, bottom game getting the least) to work out our collective game of the year! Not sure Forever Gaming has a YouTube channel or not, but I would be happy to make this into a video format too, counting down from the number 5 (or 10) spot. We could also do other categories, such as best RPG, best multiplayer etc. but thought for the first year it may be better to concentrate on just Game of the Year for now? Let me know your thoughts, I think it could be fun and interesting to see what this forum considers to be Game of the year!

I completely agree that the Essential tier I view as a bonus, but those fools of us (me) paying for Extra are not value for money in my opinion. Hasn’t always been this way, but recently it has really dropped.
-
Personally, I’ve been really disappointed with the PS Plus offerings for a while now. It feels like ever since they raised the price to ‘enable us to continue bringing high quality games’, the quality has actually dropped.

What do you do in your daily work life?
WelchyTV replied to Luseth's topic in Any General Discussion
I work in Insurance as an Underwriter, insuring anything that produces Power/Electricity. That includes anything from a Coal-fired power station to a Solar farm. Day-to-day is reviewing submissions that come in from our brokers, determine the terms we would need to insure the risk, taking into consideration factors such as Natural Catastrophe risk, claims experience, etc. It’s not as boring as it sounds 😄 -
Thanks again for the warm welcome everyone really appreciate it! I found the site through an old fashioned google search! Can’t remember exactly what I searched but something along the lines of “video game communities”.
-
Beat this game on Sunday, really enjoyed it! I thought the level design was fantastic and some of the puzzles were so intricate and clever. I would argue that it may be my favourite puzzle game since Portal 2!
-
Thanks for the warm welcome everyone! I play a pretty wide variety, my favourite game of all time is God of War / God of War Ragnarok, but then I’ve also played and enjoyed games like Sea of Stars and Cocoon this year! Multiplayer wise not as much as I would like but I dabble on Halo Infinite, FIFA (or EA Sports FC now), Fortnite etc I have PS5, Xbox Series X and a Nintendo Switch. PS5 is my console of choice but Xbox Game Pass sees me spending a lot of time on the Xbox!

Hi everyone, Welchy here, I’m new to the site, stumbled across when looking for gaming communities where I can talk about video games! I tend to play a lot of single player games as I don’t have too many friends who are also into video games. The struggle is I am very passionate about games and love to talk about them, hence why I am here! Look forward to chatting to you all 🙂
