E3 2018 Discussion

I heard some commentator mention the game Tunic (which I must have missed) so I looked up the trailer. Tunic looks like a cool omage to classic Legend of Zelda games. Reminds me of Dot Game Heroes, but with a smoother visual presentation. I could legitimately dig this game. I might just have to blow the dust off the XBOne to play Tunic. I hope it’s a physical release, not a download-only title.

holy smokes! I missed this, too. Wow - this game looks pretty awesome!

Cyberpunk 2077

Cyberpunk 2077

I'm quite excited about this one too. I just don't think it'll actually materialize any time soon. I don't think we'll see it this year anyway.

So Square didn't show anything on FF7 Remake I guess, haha. Not like I expected it or even give a damn anymore.

Here's my realistic and not so bold prediction, with Square Enix's focus on "living games" nowadays (FFXV being a prime example since the base 2016 release was a $60 beta), their tendency to take a decade to finish one project (FF7R was announced in 2015 and they're hoping for a pre 2023 release of the start of this endless journey), and with FF7R already announced to be episodic... FF7R will be in ongoing development for the rest of our entire lives, for the majority of us here on RB. Please be excited!

Square Enix is an okay publisher but when it comes to FF and their main AAA projects they suck balls.

Pretty excited for DQ11 and Octopath Traveler though.

I'm still pissed we're not getting the 3DS version of DQ11 with its retro mode. I was going to just put the game in 2D and leave it that way for all 100 hours.

While it might not mean what you're saying isn't true, it's also possible that they're saving it for Sony's show or for the home audience via the Tokyo Game Show.

So....
Control looks interesting.
Seeing Ghost of Tsushima in action has soothed my worries and created excitement.
TLOU2 looks great.
RE2 Remake trailer... Yay! With a release window too.
Kingdom Hearts- don't care personally, but good for those who do.
I still don't have the slightest idea what Death Stranding is.
Nioh 2- cool!

Kinda disappointing we didn't see more, but Sony seems to be trying to push PSX more, so maybe we'll get some more end-of-gen dumps there.

Also, screewwww that after the end trailer for a VR game. I missed the mention of "VR", so when I saw FROM SOFTWARE and Japan Studios, I was full hype for Bloodborne 2, or something similar.

The Last of Us 2 showcase was the most boring part of the show to me haha, even if I'm excited for it. The conference was super janky but it finally got good after like 40 minutes of them dragging things out.

Resident Evil 2 Remake drops January 25, 2019 - GOTY
Death Stranding was further along as some rumors suggested, but we still have many questions and no release date in sight haha
Remedy's Control looks incredible
Ghost of Tsushima looks amazing but I'm weary about the combat
... in comparison Nioh 2 was a nice surprise and will be amazing
Spiderman looks fine
From Software branching out with some interesting looking VR game... hmm

Thumbs up.

My hype went through the roof as soon i saw Leon on that REmake 2 trailer. Best part it coming early next year so we are probably going to see gameplay soon this year.

WAIT

There was a second RE2R trailer later on and I just heard from Easy Allies, it's confirmed to have options for BOTH fixed or over the shoulder camera control.

EDIT: Second trailer:
