bethesda e3 recap

1) d44m : it looks really soulless and bland. gunpaly looked worse than hl2. insane amount of cinematic takedowns.
2) uhh i forgot
3) dishonoured 2. pre-rendered cinematic footage, who cares
4)fallout: the mobile game. how do people buy this poo poo
5: fallout 4) i think this actually looks way better than fo3 and skyrim. weapon modding is cool and the alndscapes look interesting too. i'm sure all the Content will be pretty boring and lovely in typical bethesda fashion but it'll be fun to gently caress around in, and the inevitable obsidian sequel will kick rear end. ui looks truely awful this time around however, with the dialogue menus replaced by 4 face button mapped choices and an insane fov and gigantic hud.

also wroth mentioning: the fallout 4 cinematic intro sequence, which was introduced by todd howard saying "Waht everyone loves about fallout is the world that used to be there before the bombs hit" (WHAT?!?!?!?!) Where you create your cahracter and by some sort of mysterious method are frozen for 200 years only to emerge in the wasteland

They talked a lot about your dog pal but I'm gonna be disappointed if we can't bring your old robot along for the ride. Or at least invite him to clean up the crappy house I built in the middle of deathclaw town.

I'm really excited for dishonored 2 because it looks like it is basically thief 2: the metal age but more steam sea punk

The trailer for the first one was basically an exact match to the actual gameplay so I'm really excited for this.

I lay even odds on MIT offering to upgrade your dog into a cyberdog.

I mean, if Bethesda came into this with a "meticulously upgrade EVERYTHING" feel and forgot to give us a way to upgrade the dog so it doesn't constantly die, they hosed up.

Yeah that seems to be how most people felt about it. Even if that was all real gameplay footage its nothing special. Honestly I wouldn't even think that was supposed to be a revival of Doom if I wasn't specifically told so.

Why do you say that? It looks like a Doom version of Serious Sam 3 except without all the awful BS that made Serious Sam 3 really bad.

i only played the first serious sam which was pretty cool and also nonstop waves of monsters and poo poo and it was pretty fast... this didn't look like any of that

I tried Fallout 3 but found it super boring. I find the series kinda interesting but I think it's just not for me. A lot of what they showed off looked pretty cool but I wasn't convinced I'd like this one more.

Oh well Dishonored 2 is pretty exciting.

Nah it didn't look dangerous, the weapons weren't interesting, hell was uninspired.

You have to either have awesome design, or make the gamplay really drat awesome when it comes to an fps, a fake gameplay trailer that didn't even include anything besides enemies too slow to attack and at most 2 at a time isn't a hard seller.

I wouldn't have a problem with DOOM if it was called anything else, they could call it RAGE 2 even, I dunno. The original DOOM is just so fast and you waste enemies. Now you run as fast as Master Chief and you fight bullet sponges and do cinematic takedowns. It just looks like DOOM by Committee. Like the product of a million focus tests

I figure Doom looked like dull poo poo because they wanted to incredibly slowly and prescriptedly show off the wicked textures they spent 8 years making

Because in the other footage the guy actually seemed to move really fast

But who cares when there's Fallout and the possibility of constructing the Death Tower, a mile high structure of nothing but bathroom stalls, stairs, and deathtraps to the clouds, with a mighty dog house throne at its peak
