"Starfield is the most important RPG ever!"

lol

Man, I really just cant be bothered to give a shit about any trailer that doesnt have game play, which is about all of them

[–] Silverhand@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

It's crazy how they came out ahead of this bragging about how all of their trailers would be either gameplay or in-game, and it's all just cinematic shit anyways.

[–] StarshipGardener@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago

When they announced that I had a feeling they meant mostly in-engine cinematics. Looks like that's exactly what we got

[–] MoonRocketeer@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah I felt a little cheated, but my disappointment with Xbox at this point can't go any lower. Still, South by Midnight and Clockwork Revolution definitely got my attention, and I'm obviously excited for Starfield. There are rumors that more Xbox game announcements are still coming, including a new Gears, so we'll see.

[–] WooChooTrain@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I agree as well. With Star Wars Outlaws, I was disappointed with how vague the trailer was regarding gameplay... but looks like they're revealing gameplay tomorrow, so looking forward to that!

I'm obviously really looking forward to seeing more on Starfield, but here are some other titles I'm hoping to hear about:

  • Fable
  • Avowed
  • Perfect Dark
  • Hellblade 2
  • Contraband

I'm already happy with what I've seen

FABLE, STAR WARS OUTLAWS, AVOWED??? All look great so far.

Hoping for an announcement of Psychonauts 3. Also it would be cool to see some kind of confirmation of Halo project Tatanka, although I think that's unlikely.

Also I'm guessing there will probably be a surprise Game Pass shadow drop, so that will be cool.

[–] TopHat@compuverse.uk 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hopefully an announcement of a global rollout of Game Pass Friends and Family too. 👀

[–] hybridhavoc@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

That would be cool. I know a lot of people have been eagerly awaiting this.

[–] babyphatman@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Thanks for making this! It's exactly what I was looking for!

I'm keeping my expectations low, but I hope to be surprised.

Wohoo! Direct thread is here! Let the hype begin! Even as PS user, I love Bethesda games. Have been hearing about Avowed a lot lately. I can always play these games on PC/laptop.

[–] TopHat@compuverse.uk 4 points 1 year ago

I'm honestly glad both Sony and Microsoft keep pushing PC ports to Steam. My Deck's taking advantage of that.

[–] tiwenty@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Tbh it's only been a year or so under Xbox, anyone can love any game anyway :p

[–] InfiniteVariables@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Jussant(sp?) Looked cool as hell

[–] hybridhavoc@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

Definitely looks interesting. Want to see more.

[–] thedeserter@lemmy.fmhy.ml 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Games so far looking good! Just funny that with 95% of the games, it ends with saying play day one on game pass

[–] Axemetal@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Fable looked like it had the right atmosphere.

[–] thedeserter@lemmy.fmhy.ml 4 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Still no release date for fable

CITIES SKYLINES 2

[–] chloyster@beehaw.org 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Thanks for this! Was thinking of making a thread for this. So excited!!!

[–] TopHat@compuverse.uk 2 points 1 year ago

You're welcome! I was a bit surprised there was no thread yet at Beehaw.

[–] simple@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Rumors have it that Avowed will show up in the Xbox conference. I'm really excited to finally see some gameplay for it after a looong time of radio silence.

[–] thedeserter@lemmy.fmhy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

I’m with you. After being teased that long ago, my body is ready!

Interesting title for the inxile game, Clockwork revolution

[–] hybridhavoc@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

Looks great.

[–] MoonRocketeer@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

Absolutely game of the event for me. I genuinely can't wait to see more.

[–] thedeserter@lemmy.fmhy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

This is a much better Xbox event! They have in game or in engine footage to show for a lot of games being shown. No release dates for a lot of them is a bummer but there’s an improvement. Phantom liberty looked rad! I don’t have a good gaming laptop, wish had a pc for starfield

[–] Luminance6716@lemmy.one 3 points 1 year ago

Thanks! I’m so excited for the Starfield portion!

[–] gorogorochan@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I was totally surprised by Persona 3: Reload announcement /s

[–] Biotic@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

I'm hopeful Ninja Theory maintained, if not upped, the quality with Hellblade II. What an incredible experience the first game was. It was so impactful.

[–] majornelson@ohai.social 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

@TopHat Hello all! Glad you enjoyed the show (well...some of you did!)

Come on Gears remaster

[–] thedeserter@lemmy.fmhy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

So many of the games shown today have this animated JRPG look to them. I wonder if that’s a trend we are going to see with these upcoming games. Kinda weird for me

[–] thedeserter@lemmy.fmhy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

There’s Avowed. Dang next year

[–] StarshipGardener@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

I'm really looked forward to Hellbade II, even though I never finished the original one (was NOT a fan of the combat bits, it felt like someone pausing a movie and refusing to unpause it until I did button mashing sequence). The atmosphere/vibes of the walking parts are so cool though.

[–] Silverhand@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Everwild seems like a realistic thing to hope for that would be exciting. I assume we'll be seeing Forza. Silksong seems like it'd be here if anywhere during this not-E3, but not getting my hopes up for that. Really have zero interest in Starfield, so I hope they don't spend too much of the time focused on that.

[–] TopHat@compuverse.uk 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Starfield's considered a separate show, being right after the Xbox Games Showcase.

[–] Silverhand@beehaw.org 4 points 1 year ago

I'm assuming they'll still show it a bit during the xbox showcase and then show more in depth in the thing after, but maybe not.

[–] thedeserter@lemmy.fmhy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Omg!! The new atlus game, Metaphor!! Can’t wait

[–] Silverhand@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

Pretty disappointed overall. Couple of the smaller things looked cool. Don't feel like I even had very high hopes, but everything either was uninteresting to me or was cinematics only with no hint of how the game plays.

[–] eukara@idtech.space 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

@TopHat Phil Spencer wearing a :hexen2: Hexen shirt made me go yoooo
