I wanted BG&E2 before Ubi made everything an open world, RPG, F2P mechanic ridden, enemy marking, tower climbing, collectathon mess so I'm going to wait for gameplay footage.
It's a bit like the FFVII remake where I'd be excited if the company hadn't been putting out lacklustre games over the last decade and if I had any faith that it would be released within the next one.

I didn't play that game but if I remember correctly didn't it release like the week of or before the massive psn hack that took it down for a month. I felt bad for the devs, that doomed the game and then they closed shortly thereafter.
Giancarlo Varanini is there too.

I still can't get over the fact that I'm probably going to buy the Mario Rabbids game

I just realized that the XCOM 2 expansion and Mario + Rabbids come out on the same day.
There has never been a photograph of the two products together. Hmmm...?
"Probably"? You want that shit and you know it.

Weird.
Synergy
I think its because they are going after the Black Flag vibe which also more "outdoorsey" with village settlements vs the more urban style the series typically goes for.

Mark Cerny is talking about KNACK 2 on a stream. Where's Giant Bomb talking over this?
They said they might put up a stream of the Pre-Show later on, not sure if they will talk over it though.

Giant Bomb @ E3 2017: Miyamoto's got a gun!
Warhammer or Rome, probably. Shogun 2 if you want a simpler, more approachable one.

Yves Guillemot just confirmed Beyond Good & Evil 2 gameplay is at E3 but behind closed doors.

Warhammer, Rome 2, Attila, and Shogun 2.
I think you could see a little bit of gameplay when the dude was talking on stage. A ship flying around a statue.

Huh, looks like I missed a pretty good Ubi conference. I suppose I better watch before Sony.
Oh weird, I had no idea. Thanks for the answer.

Ubisoft was incredibly confident up there. They've been doing the "fund Rayman games and small stuff with Assassin's Creed and Just Dance" model for a while but this feels like they've really hit a stride they were always struggling with. Regardless of my personal feelings about AC you could tell they think everything they're making is going to be awesome. That's not true for any other conference so far
Yeah it was definitely confident
Caught up on both Ubi and Bethesda now.
I keep meaning to actually play Wolfenstein; it's even been installed on my PS4 for... long enough that I can't remember. Guess I really should soon.
Ubi's was ok but I will probably not play anything shown anytime soon besides, uh, Rabbids, honestly.
Also Beyond Good & Evil 2 is uh... like... ok, I never played the original, only saw my brother play parts, but: is... anything about this what the people who have waited so long for the sequel actually wanted...? Given the somewhat emotional way it was presented I don't want to be cynical, but it sorta felt like they'd come up with this cool idea for a game and then slapped that name/setting/whatever on it? Rather it feels like it should have a subtitle instead of a 2 next to its name.

But Doom first.

I've got just enough time to watch the entire Ubi conference before the Sony presser. Woo!

Ubi's was fun.
I can only speak for myself, but no. Then again, any CG only trailer is auto bullshit in my eyes and I already start out with a negative opinion of the game. But the conversation between the pig and monkey was atrocious, the character art is boring, and it's a prequel to an unfinished story.

Wow BG&E2 looks rough. One dude's face is glitching out.

can someone take over op and update it with the yt archives? last years thread was so much better.
As you can see, it's already on the list.
Ubisoft and EA did not make me cringe this year. Part of it was leaning to keep my expectations in check but the conferences have been enjoyable so far this year.
