I’m more psyched for the upcoming review battle between Jesse and Nick on this 4/10 or 10/10 game.

I have no expectations for the Xbox Bethesda confernece. I’m expecting to see 3 first party titles at most to hold my expectations together.

@Ace_Maverick

you say this, but I’ve been watching Xbox conferences since the the Xbox 360 days. the last packed show they had with new announcements have all been CGI trailers (these past 2 years). What could they possibly announce?

Microsoft almost never shows vertical slices for their first party titles or gameplay unless its an IGN first a few weeks before release. It’s been this way since 2016.

How about you wait and see what they present at showcase first, before start posting the doom and gloom.

…h Dogs, Cyberpunk and many other gaming blunders have done permanent damage to the way we get to see our games before release. I’ve had a realization these past few weeks, go and look back at all the first party titles from Xbox and you’ll see that as a company they are pretty shy about showing gameplay at e3 for all their first party titles. The last few vertical slices for first party titles I have a recollection of if we don’t count Forza have been for Halo Infinite and before that it was Gears of War 4 back in 2015. I’m not expecting a Skyrim style gameplay reveal from Bethesda for Starfield at this conference. I’m expecting some trailer stuff with small bits of gameplay in it here and there. but as for a raw gameplay walk through? I expect that on an IGN first three weeks before launch.

He is baiting. Too big messages though.

Things change and really, they’re gonna have to.

Also, we did have a very nice gameplay deep dive thing for Forza Horizon 5 last year. We already know we’re getting deep dives of Starfield and Redfall. I personally don’t expect gameplay demos/slices for every game they show, and that’s fine. As long as the majority of trailers DOES show gameplay bits and not only CGI.

Showing some tangible stuff in trailers should be the bare minimum in my opinion. Nintendo and Sony don’t show long slices of every single game but they do most of the time have trailers that it at least more than just CGI/cinematic.

Should be fine.

Yup, it’s easy to read between the lines, what his intentions are. lol

Because I’ve been watching these conferences for a long time and I’m trying to temper expectations.

It’s fine to set your expectation low. At the very least, it won’t be hard to exceed it. Better low than high if anything.

The Nintendo method at E3 is doing the Treehouse streams after the show and playing almost every first party games shown on the Direct (and sometimes some third party ones) for like the next 3-5 hours. They’re the best at showing gameplay IMO I love the Direct and then Treehouse format.

…3 were a lot more than what we got . (31) Recore Gameplay Trailer - E3 2016 - YouTube So, just please temper some expectations. Don’t expect to see some beautiful 8-10 minute gameplay trailer for Contraband with tons of heist gameplay and a grand shootout chase happening. Don’t expect to see raw Avowed gameplay shown on stage for 8-10 minutes with uninterrupted gameplay. Don’t expect to see the same for Starfield. Temper those expectations, be happy that we’re all coming together to celebrate gaming. but don’t start list wars and hold wild expectations that this is going to be Xbox Game Studios only pipeline where they can show high velocity jam packed gameplay. Microsoft prefers to work with press partners like IGN and Game Informer a few weeks | month before launch for that sort of thing.

I am personally enjoying what I am doing so
