E3 2019 / 2020 - 2020 Update - Dear God, they're going to make it worse.

[Stoneheart]

The worst parts for me was probably the puppet and the RE skit which felt unnecessary and out of place, at least they still showed gameplay during those short sections.

Thats fine, you cant just show 25 mins of games back to back, you need some slower parts to let it sink in a bit.

they are also having hours of showing gameplay in their treehouse and stuff like

to show more for people who want to know more about a game.

Just got through the direct. Man it was so refreshing to see a short professional presentation with games and gameplay and no: corporate bullshit, developer diaries that nobody gives a shit about, skits, annoying shills woo-ing at everything, celebrities, presentations that drag, diversity, and more. The worst parts for me was probably the puppet and the RE skit which felt unnecessary and out of place, at least they still showed gameplay during those short sections.

I'm kinda conflicted as it'd be great if more followed their example, but i'd also miss some of that classic E3 cringe.

This year pushed past comedy into genuine frustration honestly. Shitposter emeritus Mr. Metokur sounded genuinely angry after the Square Enix conference.

Panzer Dragoon is getting a remaster for the first two games. Saga is rumored to be re-built entirely from the ground up(supposedly they were able to extract the assets and other shit by using the Pseudo Saturn method developed by fans) and may have Atlus Involvement just like Sakura Taisen does.

Saga used whatever engine the first two games had, if they have PDS 1 and 2 on a new engine then saga is not far behind.

Oh i didn't mind it too much especially since they were short, the RE one was weird to me because nothing at all happened. At least they didn't give me """""emotional""""" youtubers while wanking themselves off about how great a developer they are.

It's great that they showcase some games in depth afterwards. It's so much better than Microsofts 'we got 60 games' before proceeding to show 20+ CGI trailers, ~5 gameplay and 30 indie games shoved into a 2 min video.

Its not a bad idea to show off what makes the switch special. but yeah it lacked something.

the bowser one was just perfect.

 

[Billy_Sama]

Nintendo could have just showed a JPEG of BK in smash and it would be better than most of the presentations.

I am also hoping I can get a Banjo Kazooie HD collection on the Switch if they can get BK in Smash.

Yeah really. They did the whole montage of woke faggots three times in the Bethesda conference. In retrospect, that's perfectly in line with how they had those shills screaming their heads off to the point of interrupting the entire show.

Bethesda's just so desperate to appeal to cucks right now, I guess.

Port Rare Replay to Switch, Microsoft

Do it

Hammer that final nail in the Xbone's coffin

E3 is like a reminder that 9/11 is 3 months away.

and than they show of doom^^ can it be that they dont have controll over Id? is Id directly controlled trumps brother at zenimax?

 

[whatever I feel like]

Its a down year for everyone. Best two games looked to be Watchdogs and the FF Remake. That Obsidian RPG a dark horse as well. Wait til 2020 when the consoles are out.


Also, pretty bad showing for Nintendo I think. Their best games were Pokemon and a port of the Witcher III. AC could be good, but its nine months off.

 

[Mike Hunt]

There it is. Banjo-Kazooie for smash!

I have a suspicion a remaster of the original game might be coming down the line. MS/Rare could use the extra marketing boost from the nostalgia trip and channel it into sales.

BOTW 2 is going to actually be a thing. Nice, can't wait for it to be delayed so long that it'll be on the next Nintendo console on launch.

True, haha. Seriously though, I kinda feel like they're gonna use the same engine as-is with probably some optimization tricks they learned and not much else added on to it. It's probably more on the game designers to flesh out the story and dungeons rather than adding new mechanics.

I wish there was a bit more first party game announcments other than BOTW 2, unless they're planning to announce more during the Treehouse.

I don't think they announce new first-party titles on Treehouse. The Treehouse is really more for a closer look of already-announced games. New game announcements are gonna go into the next Direct, whenever that would be.

Overall, a great showing by Nintendo. A lot of games that I want, and they moved right along with their announcements, never taking too much time on one game. Even better, they're so confident with what they do and who they are that they don't need to wank themselves over how good they are. Also, zero pandering to the woke crowd and zero pandering to streamers in the hopes that they'll give some extra positive word-of-mouth to their viewers.

 

[Brain Power]

Apparently there's a Konami announcement in a few minutes?

 

[Marissa Moira]

That platinum game looks like ass and that mech game from marvelous won't turn out well because they're staffed by incompetents.

Ive always wanted to play Saga but its expensive AF I’ve heard their are issues with emulating the game

 

[ProfDongs]

I'm cautiously optimistic on DxM mostly to some ex-staffers from Armored Core being on the team. When they showed the on foot section for a second that got me a little worried about what they are doing with it though.

 

[The best and greatest]

I liked the first Luigi's Mansion so I'm up for a multiplayer version.

Also is anyone else having connection issues to the farms right now?

The first Luigi's mansion was solid. I'd be down for more of that but the ability to play it with others!

 

[Brain Power]

Pc engine mini lmao

 

[ProfDongs]

You expect nothing from Konami and they'll still let you down.

Zelda for some reason just ends up that way, with TP and BOTW, so I wouldn't be shocked if it happened again.

My main two wishes mechanic wise are more exploration tools as while climbing is nice and all for awhile, I want the game to make the exploration more interesting as we develop. Ravali's gale was the best upgrade overall because it let you ascend into the air immediately to rapidly scale things or glide over a cliff. Hookshit should become a thing as a climbing hook of sort and/or something that lets you try to swing yourself upwards instead of slowing climbing up hills. To me because this is a very exploration heavy game, the exploration needs to evolve with your progress not just combat options or stats.

I want the champion weapons to be truly unbreakable because they let you always have access to their weapon type, even if they're not amazing you always have them so they feel more special than just being really w/e weapons that you only use for a little while. They just felt like really crappy rewards and I think that should have been more special, even if champion weapons aren't a thing I think having unbreakable mid tier weapons is perfectly fine even if the rest of the weapons can break as long as they're rewarded in the right sort of content.

To play it properly you need a sega saturn, an action replay and a few CDRs as well as burning the game onto the CDR at a slow speed.

First you need to overwrite the Action Replay with Pseudo Saturn you do this by burning the pseudo saturn file onto the first CDR and doing the disc swapping trick at the saturn boot screen with the AR inserted. Pseudo Saturn turns the Action Replay into a modchip and then some.

Then you burn the ISOs onto the disc at the slowest speed possible and IIRC all current PDS ISOs are the properly patched ones that will work with pseudo saturn

The game will work flawlessly and this technique will work on any region Saturn, I've personally done it on both an American and japanese Saturn, the japanese Saturn boot screen is different so the timing for the disc swap trick is not the same. You have to do it before the logo even appears.
