Enjoy your baseball Kribbles
Not a bad presentation, I’d give it 7/10
yeah, I was pretty happy with it
GW3 is the big announcement
best conference so far
lots of other stuff looks good, only complaint was a few too many things that were just release date or patch reveals
I wasn’t too crazy about the “one final thing” being Final Fantasy 7 either
I'm just happy they're finishing it
since part 2 sold BAD
We knew it was coming though so it wasn’t really exciting as the final reveal or whatever
and I was worried they'd just cancel the 3rd part altogether
still, what a waste for FF
the FF7 remake was announced at E3 2015 (at a Sony conference)
and the final part releases in 2027
12 years
Give me something different square like parasite eve or Xenogears or literally anything else lmao
Part 2 of the remake sold only ~1M copies in its first year
That's tens of millions of dollars lost developing it
it's ended up selling a bit more, and I'm sure all 3 will sell well as a pack once the final part is out
I feel like they should not have split the remake of the game into three separate parts, and just made it THE remake instead of part x of the remake
but the remakes were supposed to be these massive global hits, and they're just not

1000%
Iirc it’s something more like a requel than a proper remake, but I feel like that’s still not an excuse for it to have been split like that ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I just assume they thought it was going to be a bigger hit, hence the massive investment, engine, ads, etc.
figured they'd justify 3 games since everyone "loves" FF7
oh well though
Finally over tho so now those devs are bogged down by it
yep, thank God
And we don’t get it shoved in our face every few years
Kribbles in need to an emergency hug it seems
Those are tiny beers mate
you can keep slammin' them

Oh yea i saw him release this yesterday, Bowlbo has been in dev since like covid iirc
you mean flappy bird?
I guess they won at least some of the legal battles, with mounts and pokeballs showing up

I went back and watched the part of E3 I missed, this and GW3 are my most hyped games I think

and I'm cautiously optimistic about the Witcher-dev vampire game

Then lots of cool JP stuff, mix of stuff we knew about and some new franchise games
This was probably the coolest trailer, Stellar Blade 2, not-published by Sony

The Fumito game (Ico + Last Guardian) looks like we knew it would, also confirmed to be an Epic exclusive for some reason

Yeah the stellar blade 2 trailer was cool
I'm realizing there was a lot of other stuff too, idk
really good show
The Gundum game, the cube game, the Ninja Turtle game (somehow), TWAU2,
and of course
goty

Marathon's free weekend
they said sales were 60% PC, 40% console
total sales are in the 1.5-2M range
Spooky, I don't know if you saw the direction of stellar blade 2's criticism
its just "its a pedo game"

ive only seen people shit on it for using gen ai, but asia in general doesnt have any social pushback for it
