Voting has concluded with the victory of Laura Matsuda with 22 out of 46 total votes! ZAP ZAP!!
The lead stays respectable to the very end but by no means it was a landslide. Like I said earlier this week, FF7's reputation is so strong a lot of people don't mind voting without any proof of concept. Which leads me to a few points of thought:
-in the grand scheme of things this looks to be the perfect start for me, as having one main character means I can keep the scope of the project small enough.
-furthermore, I can use this first project as my proving ground to sharpen up my skill for, who knows? maybe a second game featuring FF7 waifus?;) because the demand is unsurprisingly, significant.
-although I give all my heart and pride for every project, the DOA one will have to take a backseat for now, I think that's the true value of this poll; to give me perspective, and I'm happy to get that. Doesn't mean it's the end, but I can't promise you anything for now.
TL;DR Laura won, I'll make a game featuring her. FF7 is very popular obviously, ride with me and we'll see how it goes. Thanks for voting!
