The main give away is Death Stranding being there in any capacity besides some sprawling trailerthat reveals nothing about the game

Kojima promises the game will beat the date of the events of the movie akira which take place late in 2019 iirc

So maybe gameplay isnt out of the question. The hard part will be recognizing it as such

I'm glad to see Bioware still hasn't bothered to learn how to create sympathetic, nuanced, or interesting villains and continues to hand us "bad things are gonna do bad stuff!"

they used too sorta.

Theyre bad shooters and bad immersive sims. Theyre great for art and listening to taped conversations i guess

Ya I think we will see gameplay or maybe fake scripted gameplay like battlefield although Japanese devs don't really do that often.

The playstation list seems mostly plausible other than Jak & Dexter but Sony made new Ratchet & Clank games and made Knack loving 2 so it is possible they want a game for a potentially younger audience. The list seems alright but the quality makes it look fake.

Sony's only bringing 4 first party games to E3 this year to "deep dive" on and Death Stranding is one of them so I guess there'll be some gameplay.

There really hasn't been any leak about the gameplay or anything in game.

I would guess it is a 3rd person action/stealth maybe horror? Japanese devs don't make First person games so third person part is almost guaranteed. Only thing about the game we've learned through the voice actors is there is some form of player collaboration. Maybe it is like Souls game where you can message/help each other not sure.

Bioshock 1 had some neat bits, but it ended with a real whimper.

Minerva's Den is supposed to be amazing, but that was by a 3rd party studio.

Yeah I don't think a success rate of 3/4 of one game and 1 DLC out of 3 games and 4 DLCs counts as "wasn't that bad".

Oh ya completely forgot that game existed and I forgot it got delayed. I mean I saw the gameplay and the performance was really bad.

Also in regards to Bioshock. I quite liked it. The first one was a great atmospheric game and the combat was fun with all the powers. The writing and narrative was trying to say something about capitalism, Ayn Rand and self interest which was mostly superficial. The level design was quite good and on harder difficulties fighting a big daddy was a really scary experience for the first time

Bioshock 2 was just ok but the Minerva's Den DLC was wonderful.

Never bothered playing Infinite.

1 and Infinite had really cool aesthetics even if they're a bit icky and messy. 2 was technically a "better game" but it was just mediocre and generic.

Ya I have it but haven't touched it yet. I generally get kinda put off by games everyone praises maybe I just like being a contrarian. I do see over the years people have started to criticize it a lot more. At release I just remember this game getting universal praise.

pretty much. there is a good/great game buried underneith all the bullshit. the problem is its clearly stitched together from different "eras" of the game(the game was apparently rebooted like 4 or 5 times) if it had been like the various e3 gameplay snippets, it would have been amazing. instead it was weird mess in pretty much every area outside of few cool levels and areas. i feel like a bunch of areas were supposed to be bigger or more focused. for example the weird cult KKK frat house was probably supposed to be its own level instead of just some weird random building.

So my guess is Bordlerands 3 got delayed to 2019 to not lose any sweet money on the Borderlands 1 Remaster? All this remaster business is lazy as hell. We need new games on PC not remasters.

The most disappointing thing about modern E3 (what a thought) is that everyone, even Ubisoft, has moved away from entertaining train wrecks of presentations into carefully scripted, neutrally dull stage shows of "Here is game, here why game." Occasionally you still get things like hoopzgod but it's few and far between.

Death Stranding is a third-person action game with stealth and surreal horror elements.

I have no idea why this is so confusing for people.
