E3 was terrible. It was literally just buzzwords and pre-rendered cutscenes. I watched the Xbox next .5 720 clip four times and they just rattled off specs and said nothing about it but EXCITING words. You know what would have been sick? If they played some sort of tech demo on it to show what it can do but nah. Words. AMAZING. What we can do is great. Never before. Yeah real good conference.
I only wish I knew "amazing" would be the word everyone was using to describe everything this year, or I would have included it on our E3 drinkgo.
Literally the only thing that excited me was Kojimas game, which surprised me because I hated the MSG series, but it looks different as fuck.
I feel like this is your first E3? You're complaining about these things as if it's not the same thing every year.
"Ehhh it's shit every year must be your first time if you're complaining about it being shit!
DDDD"
Look I'm aware that posts attacking it like mine, and defending it like yours are going to be the status quo now.
We'll be seeing "the new ips and library are shit!" and the "no I like them lol" posts for at least another month because all of this is
>opinions
But I'm sick of announcements for things without anything concrete behind them. I hate seeing developers stand on stage saying how incredible something is and to "take a look firsthand!" and have there be nothing but cutscenes that show nothing and footage with such high graphical quality there is no way in hell it's ever going to be in the game.
I'm not 18, single, rolling in fun money anymore to let me buy all consoles with a stacked PC and any game that comes out anymore. I'm 26, married with a mortgage and other shit, doesn't mean I can't afford >muh games, but I can't afford as many if I want to play something when it comes out, so I have to be more selective and it's hard to be selective about it when everything presented for the most part is bullshit.
Companies get sued for egregious false advertising, it should be the same.
And I find it funny that you complain about buzzwords and lack of demonstration, but then you praise Kojima's game.. A game which literally showed nothing except a teaser and was flaunted with some power words.
I have no idea if it's going to be a shooter, adventure, farcry clone or death simulator whatever. I've hated all kojimas previous games so it would be no surprise to me if I hated this one. It's just the only thing that excited me because of the way the pre-rendered nongameplay cutscene looked different to all the other pre-rendered non-gameplay cutscenes. At least one game from the entirety of E3 had to get me to look forward to something I suppose, so yeah point conceded you got me.
Oh and there was Fifa, having an actual career mode like NBA2k, finally. I liked the look of it, but I hope it's more like 2k15s RPG elements than 2k16's spike lee cringemovie
As for Project Scorpio, they most likely don't have anything presentable yet..
This is what shits me. If there is nothing presentable why are we presenting it with such force? If it's an announcement of a product why is there a developer montage saying how great it is when there is nothing presentable? There are people already saying what it can do, how what it can do is amazing so why the hell can't we see any of what it can do? How does this make sense? If we're at the point of montages hyping up a consoles specs, there should be something to show for that at E3.
