GB Patch Discord Emote Poll: August 2024
Hello! This poll is going up a bit late since the 10th was a day off this month, but it's ready now.
In August we're gonna vote on replacing one of the older emotes in a different artstyle with one that better matches the rest of the set. Let's do the "swoon" emote. Currently, it features January from A Foretold Affair, that's the first commercial game GB Patch Games ever released! We can keep him in the new version or use the same emotion for someone else.
If you have another character in mind, feel free to leave a comment below on who you think it should be!
This poll closes after the 16th

Please keep January we mustn't forget our roots 😭😭
I'm thinking either Baxter or Chiu
Their name is spelled "Qiu"! But thank you
lynn if it’s an xoxo character definitely
I know dulcie already said the same but I'm also pretty unhappy with the way these polls let emotes of characters from older games be replaced. I know most of the people in the server are here for Our Life but the emotes were a good way to direct people's attention, even subtly, towards the older GB Patch games. I know seeing people talk on the server about Lake of Voices is what lead to me playing that game and the first way I really heard about it was people asking about some of the emotes. And this idea goes tenfold for a game like My Magical Divorce Buereu, which isn't on Steam
I replied to dulcie, so you can see that, but again it makes me happy when people like the older games, unfortunately I'm not trying to promote those old games anymore and that's not how I view the point of emotes.
I don't think polling to replace characters is really smart... They're just going to vote to replace characters with new characters, and I don't think it's really fair :( Removing the rep from the older games is just going to make people not even think about playing them or wanting to play them. I'm already sad we've lost Peony, and I really don't want to keep losing emotes because the only people who are on the patreon are here for Our Life content. Of course they're going to vote for Our Life, they literally don't care about the rest of the games
Obviously, whatever gets picked is what gets picked... but why do all of the older games even have the opportunity to get replaced by the games who will obviously win??
If it’s an xoxo character I think it would be hilarious if it were Lynn
