TF2 HAT MINING RIG posted:The vr segment this year wasn't so hot. I totally agree issue is the industry was loving going crazy over it the last 3-4 years straight. The investments finally came to fruition, and there's a lot riding on these investments, from gaming to advertising. It's still the early adoption period, they are just trying to give reasons to adopt, even if it's just "EXPERIENCE YOU ALREADY KNEW IN FIRST PERSON, NOW WITH FLOATING ARMS AND A WIDER VIEW" along with some titles that actually use VR from the ground up. Issue is, I personally think they jumped the gun and should have mastered AR. We still have to see if the early adopters accept and adopt to VR, so we should expect this for a bit. Unlike 3d tv, it won't necessarily just die, likely just remain niche.

VR is just a really hard sell for most people, most promos just show games that look a generation behind and really getting a sense of it requires hands-on at stores or something, which in 2017 is, uh, problematic

I met a guy who works at Epic a while back, and his take on VR was "It is insanely great, it really is going to be the future; don't bother investing in it for at least a couple of years." I think it's pretty telling that this time last year MS was touting the Scorpio as being a system designed for and ready for VR, only for them to say post reveal "Actually VR is not a priority for us at this time and don't expect to see it on the Xbox anytime soon." So-so tech has been pushed to market as proof of concept, and nobody's quite sure how to best utilize it yet. The VR segment of Sony's presentation reeked of "Hey, 1 million people who dropped hundreds of dollars on this niche peripheral! There are still new experiences (and opportunities to give us more money) coming soon! We definitely have not forgotten you, nor will we quietly abandon you in the near future!"

Even MS doesn't want to go there, and didn't even bother with the other XBOX and VR and left it to PC.

Of the conferences I had to attend: EA: loooool Bethesda: I hate everyone involved with this. Microsoft: Mostly competent I gue$499USDOLLARS Sony: I'm sorry, I can't hear you as for some reason they decided that setting off flashbombs every time something exploded onscreen in a video game is a good idea. Was Ubisoft hilarious?

Give it a few years for the tech to catch up. Right now you can see the potential, but it's not worth it for most people. Once it takes off though, hoo boy that's gonna be neat

Sony could have at least announced a price drop to turn the screws on Microsoft. Or end their conference with a surprise like the good old days of E3.

TF2 HAT MINING RIG posted:Sony could have at least announced a price drop to turn the screws on Microsoft. After like 3 solid years of surprise announcements from Sony, this year felt staid. If they had just pushed the SotC teaser to the very end, after the Spider-Man demo, it would have solved the problem.

I don't get how a fighting game, with how little it has to render on screen, can look so bad.

hey everyone. pretty much every year i post these threads and don't get to participate in them because i spend the days of e3 animating little recaps of each day (i wont embed it, watch only if you give a gently caress). but i managed to get a little ahead so i can actually make a post DURING E3 WOW!!!!! wow (wow) so right now I think Ubisoft had the best conference unironically. I mean l loving loved the lucid dream that was Twitch's Pre-Pre Show, but in terms of an actual thing, Ubisoft had the games and were prepared and even had a little bit of stupidity for old times sake (loving love them being ages late to the toys-to-life genre). it was maybe the most balanced conference there. i expect disappointment but I was surprised at how disappointing Sony was, mostly in that past years were about "here's the future of our library" but this year they went for more of a Nintendo-style "here's what's coming very soon" which left only the MonHun announcement which is multiplatform. they had no real indies on stage (leaving them in pre-show), and there were games like TLOU 2 that were just bizarrely not there. it doesn't help that I don't really care about VR or about Days Gone or Detroit and those made up half of the dang event the worst conference by far was easily Bethesda's. you could make a case for EA's being very boring and not having much (if anything) in the way of reveals. but bethesda was the worst of both worlds: a Nintendo Direct-style event with not only next to nothing new to show but a bunch of stuff that was already out or about to be out. stop it with the Youtubers screaming in your videos everyone STOP. IT. stop it. also it was so short what the heck, imagine flying out to LA and getting a ticket for that event only to be sitting there watching the same video as everyone else. i will say WOLF 2 LOOKS COOL, Dishonored Daud DLC LOOKS COOL, but that's not enough the theme of this year in general is Not Enough, there's just not enough in any conference to get me hyphy (or make me laugh). not enough trainwreck not enough chaos dunks. if you were to just rate it based on games and volume i guess maybe Microsoft? But none of that was exclusive so who cares. not that igaf about console warring but that was pathetic Hero of E3 is probably Jon Carnage or Zeke, they were up for over 24 hours on Twitch and still had energy and their voices (i don't understand how). best moment was burgerbear thanks everyone for enjoying these threads and posting and having fun goof-em-ups about these bad video game boys and their stage shows. there's gonna be another thread tomorrow and it's for the rest of the show. i'm gonna try and scrounge up Steam page links to the interesting games shown at E3 so far (to me anyway). have a good rest of the show
