If you like AA games, I wouldn’t miss the upcoming Koch showcase.

Watching it now. Hope they show gameplay of a few games from yesterday.

Can someone post links for those not able to watch?

15 minutes and no gameplay yet. JFC. Will never understand why companies do all this talking and explaining something that gamers/consumers haven’t seen yet. They should show gameplay and then talk about what we just saw. SMH.

Thanks, Bruno :+1:

Koch’s decision to suddenly announce 12 games while also announcing a new publishing label was so odd. No one is talking about any of them because no one knows what the hell is going on

Yeah, it comes from up top - Embracer Group. It’s definitely fucking weird to say the least and it’s very annoying. The host and this guy have been talking for what seems like 10 minutes already. Show a few games and gameplay. Not going to hype up anyone with this kind of presentation.

Most of the games announced are very early in development and doesn’t even have a release window. The new PayDay is not coming out before 2023. I’m starting to think we won’t see anything worth our while

I gave the Koch show almost 20 minutes and that’s all I could take. I’m out. I’ll just catch any trailers later. It’s really poorly paced.

Live performances could have been avoided… And interviews could have been kept short or no interviews at all… Only announcements

There’s a few that are scheduled for early 2022 and if so, they gotta have some gameplay to show. All they’re doing is fucking talking. They showed clips early on and it seems like they have gameplay but instead, nothing but bullshitting. UGH.

Fucking KCD soap bar??? Are you fucking kidding me??? I’m out. Closed that tab. I will check at 4pm EST to see if they ended up showing any gameplay. SMFH.

The only glimpse of gameplay I’ve seen since yesterday was from Final Form, which does not have a release window.

King’s Bounty II and Encased (PC-only) are the only ones coming in 2021. Dolmen, The Chant, Gungrave, The Last Oricru, Crossfire Legion and Scars Above are scheduled for 2022. The rest is pretty much TBD.

Not sure which game it is but the clip showed a woman shooting in a third person perspective with the HUD on the screen. They have to have something. If not, what’s the point of this show?

On the positive side, I found out that there IS something worse than CGI trailers…people talking non-stop instead of showing the games. UGH.

Hopefully, Ubisoft has a solid show tomorrow. I can’t imagine them being worse than Koch Media Showcase.

Finally a “World Premiere”

Yeah, awful first impression by Prime Matter. Some people seem to be really out of touch with what their consumers want

I feel bad for the devs passionately talking about their projects, but the publisher should had make it clear that the whole show would be like this.

I threw in the towel 15 minutes ago, no offense to the guys at THQ, but i sat there for half an hour and there was only 1 game shown off.
