    this presentation continues to feel... kinda sloppy

    Legend of Wright appeared to show a trailer that was originally from 2019, complete with "coming in 2020" endcard.

    Whatever computer was streaming left their steam notifications on for the first ten minutes or so

    There was also the top-down shooter with Foxes (Fox Tree?) where the trailer was very obviously zoomed in.

    Also, nothing to do with the presentation itself, but there was one really terrible trailer in there, I think it was for a game called Industria. The developer narrates the whole thing, says it's inspired by Half-Life and Bioshock and David Lynch, but what's actually shown on screen is completely bog-standard shooter stuff at a terrible frame rate. A dog-like enemy shows up and the developer tells us they hunt in packs; a machine-gun wielding enemy shows up and the developer tells us they attack from range; and the developer wants to show us new environments, so they show us an abandoned apartment complex.

    Usually I like to give a bit of a leeway to indie devs and their trailers, since they slap them together themselves instead of having a Hollywood trailer house do it, but that trailer/showcase was just terrible. Reminded me of one of the times they showed Godfall where the developers narrated such useful things as "if you press the attack button multiple times in a row, you perform a combo".

    yeah the first year of Guerilla Collective was also all over the place in terms of editing, but it was hastily thrown together after Covid canceled everything, so they got some slack

    that they followed it up with an even sloppier presentation this year is just kinda strange, and it seems like this was pre-recorded but they left in things like the host mispronouncing names and asking questions to people who can't hear him

    i looked up a youtube review of craftopia, the consensus seems to be that it's still really rough around the edges but the core of it is really solid

    its pretty crazy fun but hells of goofy

    The Palworld Steam page is WILD
    ■ Survival
    - This world is full of dangers such as food shortages, harsh weather, and illegal poachers. You must be prepared to do anything if you want to survive. You may even need to consume Pals sometimes...

    ■ Building
    - Do you want to build a pyramid? You can have a large number of Pals work on the construction. Don't worry; labor laws won't be applied to Pals.

    ■ Factory and Automation
    - It is essential for automation to let Pals do the manual work. Build a factory and place Pals in it. They will work forever as long as they're fed until the end of their lifetime.

    ■ Dungeon Exploration
    - With Pals, you'll be safe in dangerous areas. If you are in danger, you use Pals to cover your escape! They'll give their lives to protect you.

    ■ Poaching and Crime
    - Endangered species Pals live in the hunting prohibited area. If you sneak in and catch them, you'll get tons of money! It's only illegal if you get caught.

    I feel like it would make more sense if, instead of guns, you had your pals viciously maim your opponents.

    Over on the XboxEra podcast Jeff Grubb says he has heard that Scarlett Nexus is a gamepass day one title

    So presumably that’s a an E3 announcement also that’s a probably a great get for both KoeiTecmo and Microsoft since those weird B tier Japanese games dont typically sell well on Xbox

  • BroloBrolo Broseidon Lord of the BroceanRegistered User regular


    I’m excited to share that I’ll be officially co-streaming the @summergamefest kick off in American Sign Language!

    We don’t often see that do we?

    Thank you @geoffkeighley for the opportunity!

    Can’t wait for a lot of gaming news til then!

    So Sony doesn't have any E3-ish plans?! They're the only ones?

    Everyone else I can think of has something scheduled for this week or next week...

    That was E3 2018.

    E3 2019 was a Sony no-show

    E3 2020 didn't happen

  • mxmarksmxmarks Registered User regular
    They still had a state of play with some reveals and stuff during the normal e3 week window last year.

    Sony announced like, horizon zero dawn 2 a week or two ago right? Maybe some other stuff?

    I thought it'd been known for a while and last week was just a gameplay reveal

    I assume that was all the big first party game stuff they had to show then

    there isn't really, just a loose coalition of publishers putting up streams of their upcoming release announcements around the same week

    E3 might be doing less organizing of these streams than I had initially assumed

    Ugh, that’s just organizing body shaming.

    I heard somewhere or other that GoW is having trouble and delayed until sometime in 2022 at least

  • -Tal-Tal Registered User regular
    2021 is a reasonable time to show a trailer for a 2022 game though there's certainly no need for them to do it around e3 time, but I'd probably expect that in september or something

    yeah I would assume that means it's not aimed at early 2022 for that reason

    I do not expect a lot to successfully release this year honestly

  • MadicanMadican No face Registered User regular
    I don't need a lot to release this year between Ratchet and Clank 2, The World Ends With You Neo, Tales of Arise, and now this Crimson something JRPG that's come out of nowhere? Not to mention FFXIV expansion dropping just before the holidays.

    Expectations for next year are always nice though

  • JuggernutJuggernut Registered User regular
    Yeah honestly, the less huge game drops this year the better I'll feel about not having to scrounge to try and find a new console.

    Yea this year is already honestly, pretty damn jam packed!(especially if you are into the weeb games)

    And that's before we get whatever are the remaining holiday season announcements.

    Like if not a single other game was announced right now I would not have a single break in new game launches to play all the way through the end of the year.

    And I'm sure there's at least something else lined up for the holiday season.

    BACK

    Why must you make me, specifically, suffer, Gearbox?

    Sonic creator Yuji Naka leaves Square Enix after Balan Wonderworld flop, may retire

    ...balan wonderland is probably not coming back

  • JuggernutJuggernut Registered User regular
    They will absolutely make another Balan Wonderland game before they give me my Brothers in Arms finale.

    Also, please watch the Dunkey playthrough of Balan it is absurd

    A message from the Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake dev team:

    i wonder what is happening to this game/team

  • shoeboxjeddyshoeboxjeddy Registered User regular
    I can't tell if you guys are all calling it Balan WonderLAND on purpose or not. As a reminder, one of the ten thousand bad decisions made on the game was to call it WonderWORLD instead of Wonderland.

  • Crippl3Crippl3 oh noRegistered User regular
    I'm morbidly curious about that Borderlands spinoff, the moment-to-moment gameplay and RPG mechanics of BL3 were vastly improved over the other games, if they can marry that to writing and environments that don't make me quit playing then I might be in.
