ZAU looks like a fun metroidvania, and I will keep my eyes on it.

Apex x FF7. Why?

Apex x FF7. Why?

[FakeSympathy]

Oh fuck, Skull and Bones is actually coming out. And around FF7 Rebirth release. Why?

Visions of Mana, Square Enix's other JRPG game. It actually looks interesting.

The last mana game was a remake of seiken densetsu 3 and was actually pretty good (but way too easy) so this might be worth picking up (althought the mana franchise had some real low point).

New jet set radio, which is great but an inidie just made a new one too and it did so-so iirc, so it might not work. New crazy taxi, another maybe.

Why is every news outlet acting like this Ikumi Nakamura lady is some big deal? I had to look her up and she didn't exactly have anything that special to her name...

 

[FakeSympathy]

A Blade game.... from Arkane? This will definitely work, if they incorporate mechanics more from Dishonored games and make more Blade

Nice to see my Sea of Stars boys get Best Indie.

SOR1 Poster Lady FTW! Check the background!

Stromgate, a new RTS from ex-Starcraft devs. Looks decent and it's free from the grasp of A/B.

 

[FakeSympathy]

Starfield didn't even win the only category it was nominated for lol

 

[hanselthecaretaker2]

Best Direction: Alan Wake 2!

Congrats Max Payne!

 

[FakeSympathy]

New Monster Hunter!

 

[hanselthecaretaker2]

BG3 gets it, the coveted GotY!!!

 

[FakeSympathy]

And BG3 wins GOTY! Very well-deserved, and now I'm laughing at TOTK

 

[The Rogue Wolf]

Oh fuck, Skull and Bones is actually coming out. And around FF7 Rebirth release. Why?

So that they can blame the abysmal sales on a competing game rather than their own game being utter trash?

 

[Johnny Novgorod]

My Top 5:

1. Sea of Stars wins Best Indie.
2. God of War: Ragnarok gets (free!) DLC.
3. Another Prince of Persia trailer.
4. Sam Lake wins Best Direction.
5. Whatever that Dave the Dredge thing was.

Bajezus that was a lot of announcement, I'll figure it out tonight but glad AC6 won something.

Haven't watched it. Not going to. Just looked up a roundup of the announcements, because let's be honest, that what it's about. Notably no real heavy hitters aside from Monster Hunter. Guess the big boys are saving that for their own dedicated shows.

Some stuff caught my attention tho: Pony Island, Harmonium, Windblown, Trasher, No Rest For The Wicked, Visions of Mana, Tales of Kenzera and Monster Hunter. Also Sega's new stuff, provided they actually put in some effort.

I agree with Max and the crew. The event overall is a C. C+ if I am being generous. There are some good gameplay trailers here, but I knows a lot of problem with these trailers is that they're just high concept CG trailers or animated CG trailer where is the game play? Enough with the Kill Zone 2 crap already. I thought we all moved past this. Just talking about your game and rambling on for 5 to 10 minutes cuz nothing for me and wastes everybody's time. I'd have some actual game player don't at this point. Honestly, the best thing that got me hyped up was the repeal of all those Sega games. I am way more interested in that than any of the other announcements.
