fill in the blank: _____________ is the hamilton of video games

Undertale. I actually cheated and saw other people's answers, but this still immediately came to mind. Some people think it's overhyped, but for me it's really polished with a lot of little details that show there was a great deal of care put into it. It is an homage to its genre(s) while still being a welcome part of it. It is really clever and with a casual or passive experience you will probably miss some of the more brilliant nuance the first time around. The people involved wanted to tell a good story that on the surface is a pretty hard sell, but if you give it a chance, you'll find it has a lot of heart and you get super invested.

Also this I need to answer because yes S1 was extremely good and cool and fun.

Season 2 was ehhhh, I still sorta liked it, but it felt like some sloppy storytelling and the seams were beginning to show in how linear their "branching" storyline really was.

Like hey, you save someone from death. They no longer have any lines in the game and went from being important to being basically a prop.

I played very little of SC:BW. Didn't play online games when it was popular and then only played it a few times with friends about a year or so before SC2 came out, and we'd just play BGH or stupid incomprehensible custom maps.

You can set your auto-pick draft preferences in the system, by going to Autopick Strategies (where you tell the system in which round you wish to draft for each position) and Pre-Draft Rankings (where you sort which player you'd want to take over which other player.) If you're not there and you don't set strats in advance, it'll just pick the best available player (by projected point total) for you. I think someone would have to manually log into your account to actively draft in your place.

If there isn't another option, I'll do that, but having someone draft for me is infinitely better.
