E3 2017 - June 10-15 - Press Conferences, Trailers and Interviews

[DramaticPopcorn]

I fucking lost it

 

[Metro]

So Bethesderp's big announcements were:

1) Paid mods.
2) Shitty VR versions of existing games.
3) Shitty sequels.

RIP.

 

[Sentinel]

Damn this E3 is pure shit. Not a single game that made me go "sounds cool".

 

[vonAchdorf]

All this super realistic environmental destruction is only possible because of the power of the cloud every XBone has! A game like Crackdown 3 wouldn't be possible without the cloud! (Even Microsoft seems to have forgotten about this and silently swept it under the rug.)

 

[Zep Zepo]

You got your Nigger in my Cloud!

NO! You got your Cloud in my Nigger!

Zep--

Only two games from Microsoft's briefing are XBOX console exclusives: Forza and some other game ... while everything else is not an exclusive or just a timed exclusive.

Even Ashen will come out on PC.

Except "PC" and "Windows 10 only"-titles are not the same. Windows 10 is being made to be an exclusive platform where you'll need the new piece-of-shit OS from Microsoft, suck down their restrictive UWP DRM and eventually say goodbye to all PC games that don't conform to it.

Repeat: A game that's released for Windows 10 is NOT a PC game.

Not every game shown will be a UWP game, just saying. Most of them will be regular Steam purchases.

Did you notice that in Doom VR you can't actually walk or run, you have to pick a spot and the you teleport to it

Teleporting instead of walking prevents VR motion sickness - VR totally is the future btw.

It's the difference between Seated VR, where you use the headset to look around and lean in various directions to closer observe something and orient yourself but use a controller for all movement e.g. the Oculus method and Room-Scale where you designate a physical space you can actually walk around in and your position is tracked 1:1 into the Virtual space e.g. the Vive method, which obviously isn't infinite since the room you're playing and walking around in will most likely have walls and shit and leads to design problems (there's a physical space you can walk around and do shit in, and to move said space you "teleport" it away to another virtual location with you in it).

Various games use different methods or a mix between them depending on what you're supposed to do, see for instance the tags for these games:

http://store.steampowered.com/app/646200/Dead_Effect_2_VR/ http://store.steampowered.com/app/342180/Arizona_Sunshine/ - Standing / Room-Scale

Fallout 4 VR seems to have been developed using the first method since it's a full port, DOOM VFR seems to have been developed using the second method, since it's a separate game.

 

[theSavant]

Interesting... might give a feel of Point & Click Adventures.

 

[jaydee2k]

Everything except Wolfenstein is abysmal shit.
Modern gaming my ass. I'm out of this shit!

you fags really think Witcher 3's shitty horse controls are better than Ass Creeds?

I haven't played Witcher 3, so I wouldn't know, but that wasn't your original assertion.

Unlike Witcher 3, ass creed games have had good horse riding mechanics since 2009

What I gathered from this is that AssCreed has good horse riding mechanics and Witcher 3 doesn't. I've played a few AssCreed games (unfortunately) and I found all the controls to be cumbersome and shitty, especially horse controls and combat. So if Witcher 3 managed to have worse horse controls than AssCreed, I'd be impressed... but I've heard it's a pretty shitty game in general so I guess it wouldn't be too surprising.

I'd only want to add that Dragon Age: Inquisition for sure had worse controls than those two.

Really, no mention of all of Starfield? Is that picture of the banner fake then?

I have not had time to follow it all so far.

 

[Jarmaro]

Wait, I don't get it. Someone did a leak, said about Starfield in the leak. But I fail to see why people expected Starfield if it was only leak, Starfield was officialy announced or not?
Am I missing something?

The banner photo is fake. The art is taken form a game called Shattered Horizon.

PC Gaming Show is going live:

Klei's new game accidentally(?) revealed before PC Gaming Show:

Griftlands is an RPG where everything is negotiable: money, loyalty—even morality. Choose your character and make your fortune.

Griftlands is the next game by Klei, and will be available Late 2017 / Early 2018.

JRPG/Visual Novel?

 

[vortex]

I think Starfield is alive only they didn't want to compete with Shadow of War and God of War 4 this year.

poor bastards, they don't know they live in a century where internet hoaxes and Photoshop coexist

 

[commie]

I wonder about the fools that bought a xbone, even worse who will buy a scorpio, you gonna pay money on expensive hardware to play stylized indie BS with shitty graphix that any budget PC could easily run, really, Microsoft doesn't know what it is doing. It is trying to get rid of the Xbone division but is too much afraid of the blacklash, so they keep the xbone around like a zombie.

 

[Jarmaro]

Mount&blade 2 Bannelord dissapointing so far. Battle looks like first M&B with graphic mods. Damn, even Assassin's Creeds get more changes per game.

 

[LESS T_T]

Intel guy: "How many of you people heard of Destiny?"

 

[Perkel]

hahah ok This is the best conference so far.

Bunch of good games.
Intel guy trying to sale snakeoil and no one buys it
"Who heard of Destiny !?" :small booo: :crickets:
