Ladies and gentlemen of the interwebz!

Okay, here we go again. Hello to everybody who can read me!

you had the option to post
suggestions to the
genre categories and after an internal discussion, following genres are up to vote:
1.) Action - Plays out mainly through a clash of physical forces. Frequently these stories have fast cuts, tough characters making quick decisions, and usually a beautiful girl nearby. Anything quick and most likely a thin storyline.
2.) Adventure - Exploring new places, environments or situations. This is often associated with people on long journeys to places far away encountering amazing things, usually not in an epic but in a rather gripping and interesting way.
3.) Comedy - Multiple characters and/or events causing hilarious results. These stories are built upon funny characters, situations and events.
4.) Drama - Game that often show life or characters through conflict and emotions. In general, the different parts of the story tend to form a whole that is greater than the sum of the parts. In other words, the story has a message that is bigger than just the story line itself.
5.) Fantasy - Game that are set in a mythical world quite different from modern-day Earth. Frequently this world has magic and/or mythical creatures such as dragons and unicorns. These stories are sometimes based on real world legends and myths. Frequently fantasies describe tales featuring magic, brave knights, damsels in distress, and/or quests.
6.) Horror - Game whose focus is to scare the audience.
7.) Martial Arts - Game whose central theme revolves around martial arts. This includes all hand-to-hand fighting styles, including Karate, Tae-Kwon-Do and even Boxing. Weapons use, like Nunchaku and Shuriken are also indications of this genre. This is a sub-genre of action.
8.) Music - Game whose central theme revolves around singers/idols or people playing instruments
9.) Mystery - Game where characters reveal secrets that may lead a solution for a great mystery. This is not necessarily solving a crime, but can be a realization after a quest.
10.) Parody - Game that imitate other stories (can be from TV, film, books, historical events, ...) for comic effect by exaggerating the style and changing the content of the original.
11.) Psychological - Often when two or more characters prey each others' minds, either by playing deceptive games with the other or by merely trying to demolish the other's mental state.
12.) Sci-Fi - Game where the setting is based on the technology and tools of a scientifically imaginable world. The majority of technologies presented are not available in the present day and therefore the Science is Fiction. This incorporates any possible place (planets, space, underwater, you name it).
13.) Sports - Game whose central theme revolves around sports, examples are tennis, boxing and basketball.
14.) Supernatural - Game of the paranormal stature. Demons, vampires, ghosts, undead, etc.
15.) Strategy - A genre that focuses on skillful thinking and planning to achieve victory. It emphasizes strategic, tactical, and sometimes logistical challenges.
16.) Thriller - Thrillers are characterized and defined by the moods they elicit, giving viewers heightened feelings of suspense, excitement, surprise, anticipation and anxiety.
For clarification: We're talking about the
main genre. As in, what the game is built on.
Side and sub genres will also exist, of course, but unlike
Ecchi Sensei, which has multiple main genres, the focus will be specifically on the genre you vote for (but it remains an erotic game. Don't worry ^^)
How we move on:
The results will be evaluated and if a genre wins by a big margin (e.g. there are 1000 possible points, genre X gets 370, genre Y gets 250 in 2nd place), then the most popular will be picked.
But if one or several genres are quite close together at the top, I'll decide which of them has won or I'll make a genre mix if possible (e.g. action + fantasy)
Good. We've got a winner.
Next up you can vote for a subgenre and the setting (e.g. vampires + alternate reality)
Because there are twelvety billion million subgenres and settings, we'll make another pre-selection that you can then vote for.
We're going to need
2 polls for that again; since I want to let Tier 2+ patrons vote in one of them, you can use the current poll to vote if the subgenre or the setting will be a T5+ poll again.
You will find the options at the bottom of the poll, marked as:
SUBGENRE = T5+
SETTING = T5+
The winning option will be up to an exclusive T5+ patron vote again.
Alright, happy voting and stuff!
The poll results will be evaluated by
March 22 2020 and I'll notify you about the results by updating the poll itself (you should get an email if this happens as long as Patreon doesn't mess up)
Alternatively, I'll post the results on Discord in the Tier 6 channel.
As a reminder: Of course you can vote for more than one genre. Your vote power isn't divided in that case.
Vote power: To determine how much vote power you have, look at your current tier and check the benefits chart.
So long,
Blue
