Template talk:Poll July 2009

Just in advance
Obviously from here on out our monthly polls will start revolving around the newly announced Golden Sun DS. I believe our first set of polls about it should avoid simplistic questions that might be asked a lot on fansites such as "do you like it so far", so I'm gonna reserve this month with the following polls and choices:

"The long-anticipated third game in the Golden Sun series has finally been made a reality. What aspect of the new game do you most look forward to?"
 * 1) The characters, whether old or new
 * 2) The gameplay
 * 3) The 3D visuals and audio
 * 4) The setting and thematic elements
 * 5) The story
 * 6) All of the above

"How did you first hear about the announcement of Golden Sun DS?"
 * 1) Watching the E3 2009 footage, either live or afterward
 * 2) Seeing it announced as a news item on either an official site like IGN or a fansite like Golden Sun Realm or Syndicate
 * 3) Hearing about it on an online forum or message board related to Golden Sun or not
 * 4) Reading Golden Sun Universe
 * 5) Other

My thoughts exactly, but when it comes to the first poll idea I really think you need to get rid of the "All of the above" option. I think it makes the poll too simplistic and easy and it seems kind of obvious that almost everybody will choose it. But I think it would be good for these two to be the Main and Secondary poll.Zabbeth 21:19, 18 June 2009 (UTC)


 * I don't think the "All of the above" would end up skewing the results that much, though; if you check the GSDS board on GameFAQs, you get all kinds of GFAQs noobs complaining about things like how they don't like the "ugly 3D graphics" where the previous games had great 2D ones, people don't like the fact that it's apparently not focusing on the previous characters, people hated the current games' lack of "smart auto-targeting" and would hate that if it's kept in GSDS, people are apprehensive about how the 3D battles will probably end up being slower than the lightning-quick battles of the previous games, a HUGE amount of shipping controversy will be had if the descendant characters will be revealed to have had certain pairs of previous Adepts as canon parents, and so on and so forth. Because of this, I daresay that people who honestly look forward to ALL of these above aspects together in the game would be the uncommon ones. :/ Erik Jensen (Appreciate me here!) 21:31, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

Whatever floats your boat. But I must admit, with the news of GSDS I can't wait for all the new blood to join this wiki.Zabbeth 21:56, 18 June 2009 (UTC)
