Nothing wrong with not using it a ton. Sometimes it is about the journey not the destination. The thrill of building cool stuff vs the thrill of using it are two different things.

I think having a multiple choice selection would be nice, as that will ensure that we can see what the options are before voting. otherwise it is possible that everybody votes for a unique game and every game will then have one vote.

Could do two rounds of voting, firat one is a format like this, open ended. Where people can put whatever. And then round two takes games from round one in a multiple choice list. This wouod allow people to google the games and look them up to see what interests them.

This is great news! Obsidian's other games such as the Pillars games, Outer Worlds, even Fallout New Vegas really shine due to Obsidian's world building and lore crafting. I'm glad that they aren't trying to copy Skyrim and just doing their own thing.
