Bethesda E3 2016 Showcase Thread | Hype and Tear

Which totally unexpected announcement are you most looking forward to?


Results are only viewable after voting.
worse than that year they had NOTHING but shitty dev diary and "hey we have this idea" videos?

They had a video of devs drawing and talking about future Star War games. Which had random CGI X-Wings etc flying in real life cities to show the different studios. It was bad.

So, Eurogamer talked shit?!
 
Overall a good conference from Bethesda. Not as good as last years but way better than EA's. Quake is a nice surprise, knowing Prey isn't dead is cool and they showed way too much Dishonored but it does look pretty good.

Really disappointed at the lack of Wolfenstein 2 and Evil Within 2. That would have elevated my hype levels considerably.
 
How can people rate EA lower than this shit here?


EA at least showed ingame gameplay stuff... gave us a glimpse of ME and Star Wars games etc.


This here? Overwatch: Quake Edition, Prey Reboot that doesnt look as fun and interesting like the OG Prey 2, Another Remaster yaaaawn, DOOM DLC and Dishonored which never interested me to begin with...

I guess some people are easily pleased.
Yep, don't understand this too.
 
I loved everything during the conference besides the amount of time on Dishonored 2. I wish they didn't tell us the play-by-play for each movement during the demo.

However, Skyrim Remastered Day One.
 
Why are they milking Skyrim? Didn't they make enough money from it. And I highly doubt it will have all the pc mods. No ENB or any of the AI mods since the CPUs on these consoles are so weak.
Why are they milking Skyrim...what a silly question.
 
EA: D
Bethesda: C+ (not every single game appealed to me, but it was a well run show I think).

And I ask this completely seriously because I like Blink, does anyone know what time they perform?

EA's entire conference was either sports or games that are clearly not ready at all so they just wasted time talking about shit we already know about with no real new info.

No one knew definitively about Quake or Prey existing so those were genuine surprises that didn't need gameplay, we got info on the new dlc coming for a few Bethesda games, they confirmed a remaster to a game people wanted plus mods, we got great gameplay from Dishonored 2.

Seemed like a very solid conference from a company that showed great control over their message unlike EA who seemed unable of how or what to communicate to the audience.
 
Don't have a conference if you don't really have anything to show. EA had nothing and Bethesda had Prey and Dishonored 2 which could have easily been at MS and Sony's conferences, they didn't merit a conference

Wtf are you talking about. People lost their minds at CG trailers for FF7 and shenmue last year, Beth did the same thing for Quake and Prey. If you happen to not care about those games that's on you, not the conference.
 
Prey reboot by Arkane...all over it! Love me some psychological thrillers! And of course the Dishonored 2 showing did nothing but make me more confident in the pre-order I made a while back. Loved the first game. So I figure I'll enjoy this as well.

Wasn't interested in anything else at the Conference.
 
i know it's okay per forum rules, but damn the multiple front page threads on the similar topics might be my worst gaf pet peeve
 
Dishonored 2 looks really good and seems to do some twists to the gameplay.

Free Doom Snapmap and Fallout 4's free updates looked like interesting additions.

Prey and Quake trailers didn't look too interesting.

Huh? What ingame gameplay stuff did EA show? Like a few seconds of FIFA?

There were two or three individual game segments in Bethesda's show that had more gameplay than the entire EA conference combined.

Difference is Sony had soooooo much more in their conference.
 
That was pretty bad. Only Prey looked good. The rest was either underwhelming or CG.

Highlight of the show clearly was the screaming lady, that was funny as shit.
 
"Hey guys we have some exciting things for you:

Lets start with a multiplayer first person shooter.
Now he have Prey, a first person shooter.
Hey lets shake the things a little and talk to you about Doom, if you dont know, its a first person shooter.
Next we have fallout 4, an amazing first person shooter.
Finally lets end it with a half conference surprise: tataratarata go go gadged dishonored 2, its a brand new first person stealth/shooter"

Oh before we go, just a little thing for you, dishonered 2 collectors edition and free shirts!


Abda bda bda ba thats all folks!"

People have different opinions. Some don't care it's all CG and some will. Also if you didn't find a game in a conference to your liking you will find it more boring. For me Bethesda's was just below average.
