More Shenmue II. I have to say, it feels weird doing photo mode stuff in an old looking game like this.

@neocweeny The cover arts are so sick! Wow.

@themarcv I'm so curious about how skateboarding works in the Mario & Sonic Olympics game. I'm hungry for a decent skateboarding game.

I haven't watched it yet (and I might not because I'm already sold with the game) but YongYea asked his viewers to submit questions for CDPR, and here's his Q&A with the dev video.

This is definitely not incidental.

Updated mine. I know Samurai Shodown is coming so soon but I've been literally ignoring it for a while so I want to add it for good vibes.

Best of E3:

• FF VII Remake. Now I don't feel so bad for being born after the original FF VII's time. Absolutely crazy stuff. The real time x turn based combat sold me on it. Thank you for making the shady deals, Sony and SE.
• Watch Dogs Legion. WD is the one Ubisoft franchise that I really care about, and the demo certainly pleases me. Ambitious is one word to describe it. Helen is hype!
• Skatebird. This looks too jolly. A fluffy bird on a mini skateboard? Count me in.

Least favs:

• Contra Rogue Corps. Graphically disgusting.
• Gears 5. Horrible presentation. The Escape mode trailer was uninteresting as heck.
• Wasteland 3. I never felt the disdain for a game trailer as I do with this one. One of the, if not the, worst trailer I've ever seen in my life. Nothing interesting, and it's super annoying from start to finish.

Turtle racing is hype af.

@dipset ...wrong thread?

Tried the Samurai Shodown trial demo. I never played any of the Shodown games before, and I have to say I really like the gameplay style of this one. High damage attacks are plentiful, and it's so easy to deal (and lose) more than half of the health bar in an instant, which I love. It makes the fighting feel more deliberate, like actual samurai duels. Combos are not prevalent at all, which I kinda prefer. The game looks great too, especially the visual effects of slashing and the gore. Now I really want to pre order this since it includes the season pass for free, but I don't know if that applies to my region too.

After watching the allies' impressions, I'm even more hyped about this game. It's pretty long, but it's absolutely worth the watch. My favorite thing they talked about is that they hammered the point of this game being a RPG, a real one. Character background lore and stats (and equipment affecting said statts) affecting things you can and can't do, multiple play styles, meaningful decisions. All of that happening inside a very alive and dynamic world. Still cant believe that it's coming this gen, my PS4 will once again suffer.

@iboshow I think A-Day is just referring to the Avengers Day event featured in the trailer.

I think Ducktales Remastered used that word earlier, it was released in 2013. Dunno what game actually did it first though.

Also, this is kinda wholesome.

Also, as someone who cares about practicality above all else, I really want to replay Witcher 3 on Switch. I honestly don't care about the graphics and performance, the idea of playing that on the go is too cool for me. Don't have a Switch yet though, lol.

Hype! Guessing this is temporary, like before. The Kill your Babies segment for this index is potentially harrowing, there's lots of games coming up that I dont want to see die, lol.

One of the best games of E3 so far for me. I want this so bad.

Fantastic show. Easily the most consistently engaging conference in this year's E3. Great showings of upcoming big games, great pace, and cool surprises. I don't really have much to complain about, other than that weird RE trailer. 9/10

This was a pretty great show. FF7R looks so god damn amazing, and they presented it very well. Also very excited about FF VII remaster, as a newcomer to the FF series, both of these are the ones I'm most interested in playing so I'm very happy about both of these things happening. Builders 2 is super jolly, I really enjoyed that trailer. Marvel's Avengers looks pretty cool. I'm kinda having Marvel fatigue though so it didn't help that they didn't really do enough to show the game, I was expecting a gameplay demo for this. Overall this is a solid 8/10 show, that FF7R presentation might be the best game demo so far this E3.
