The E3 2021/Summer Game Fest Thread

Yeah, hard to say what to make of Starfield beyond "it's a game set in space" right now. Maybe in a way better that it leaked and expectations were set.

[Bobfoc]

The original STALKER games were balls hard. I hope this one has an easy mode.

[Your Mom]

This looks weird. Was the first one any good?

 

 

Also I think that trailer may have me less interested in Starfield. I don't know a lot can change in a year and a half

It was, but it was really hard.

I'm thinking the same. I wanted something like Outer Worlds or Prey, not NMS. Like, it might be that, but it doesn't seem that way. 

[Bobfoc]

That's further out than I thought it would be.

3 games shown, all 3 on gamepass day 1.  

[Your Mom]

I was absolutely not going to bother with Back 4 Blood but I may now that it's free!

[Bobfoc]

Excellent news about Back 4 Blood on Game Pass. It leaked early, but official confirmation is nice.

Avalanche, eh? Interesting.

[GoGo Yubari]

I don't think there was enough there to make me sway one way or the other on Starfield. I'll wait until I even know what kind of game it is. Of course, it's Game Pass so odds are I'll have day one access to it either way.

Interesting selection so far.

4!

[Bobfoc]

Sea of Thieves? Finally, a game I'm not bothered about.

[Ruki]

Pirates of the Caribbean?! Woah. 

[Your Mom]

Jack Sparrow! I could not roll my eyes any harder than I am right now

[Bobfoc]

Sony has Spider-Man, but Microsoft has Jack Sparrow.

[GoGo Yubari]

I get the appeal of Sea of Thieves, I tried it out with friends for a couple nights early in the pandemic, but I'm not wired for it. Clearly it's working out for Rare, though, if Disney was willing to partner with them on this.

[Bobfoc]

Yakuza! Who'd have thought it?

[Ruki]

Like A Dragon It is so ridiculous and over the top. I love it. The Yakuza series is great.

 

TODAY?!

[Your Mom]

I have to admit after playing Yakuza for a while I just don't get the appeal. Like having a guy threaten to powerbomb me was cute but that was about it

[GoGo Yubari]

I'm working on Yakuza 0 right now. I'd have finished it weeks ago except I decided to get sucked into the side stories (real estate, cabaret club, etc.) before finishing the main story. What a fucking franchise.
