Well I think it's MMO, so they can make it a little interesting by making certain resources rare and valuable to force players to war over them. But with infinite world there's every chance you'd never run into someone, so I think there will be a large social media component where people are saying "Large quantities of diamonidium on Keplar Alpha Lambda!" and get some guilds going. No real evidence of that yet though.

Nintendo will announce the 50th of one of their franchises. Nintendo fans will claim to have "win" E3 everywhere, very loudly.

Whoa. They showed so many identical TACTICAL SHOOTMANS games that I forgot which one this was. I was remembering the Terrohunt (sp?) talk which wasn't that bad.

Sony fulfilled a 10-year-old promise of a remake of an 18 year old game and everyone who has touched a playstation since the beginning of this millennium is losing their poo poo

New 50th of a 30 year old franchise beats remakes of15-20 year old games.

And if they say "But Prison Architect" (or whatever is the one decent Early Access game, there must be one somehow) you can reply with


I can't get enough of that $150 controller.

What... how... why...

and how did they manage to gently caress up the d-pad yet again when there's no reason not to just use the cross design?

hemale in pain posted:

Robots looked super cool but the main character narrating everything sucked and something about it just feels off.

Everything outside of the robot hunting part felt like "it's been done before" so that's probably it.
Or maybe the title, it's the most terrible generic poo poo ever. Horizon Zero Dawn, is that what it's called? What the gently caress does that even mean?

I don't know what I enjoy reading more--the speculation that this was some kind of test for Sony before they'd fund the game, or people forgetting everything they know about Kickstarter and the games it has produced all over again

Yeah those all did looked fun. But man those game's politics seem to be getting even more disgusting instead of toning down like you expect with Clancy being dead.

Was Tom Clancy ever involved with any of the games in the first place? Other game developers have been writing the same jingoistic fantasies about killing poor foreigners or surprisingly well organized American thug uprisings.

You know there's something wrong with the industry when Kojima is unironically the best at dealing with political themes.

I can't wait to sit in the dark, damp, dusty corner of my bedroom, snuggled up in my smelly blanket, continuously jacking off and subsisting on a box of cookies near me. All of my furniture, clothes, and other possessions are sold to pay the bills and rent in the studio apartment I now live in.

It will be cold in this apartment, but I will be warmed forever with my waifu holding me tightly as we watch the sunset together. The transcendence of my being into the virtual world shall be made a reality.
