I'm so fucking down for this game. Also Kay Vess > Cal Kestis, I'll take a strong, interesting female lead over a generic male lead any day.

 

[Gambit2483]

This looks boring.

At least it's an actual game and no an in-engine cutscene bs...looked ok to me. Not really feeling the MC but she might grow on me

 

[TVexperto]

was that phil spencer in the second row?

Fable Main Character (Microsoft) Vs Star Wars Outlaws Main Character Ubisoft

I mean the Ubisoft one is fine

But just think, 1313 got cancelled and this didnt

 

[Gorgon]

OK, that nwoke me up. SW:O actually looks good.

 

[FunkMiller]

Well done Yves.

Now you can go back to ignoring all that sexual abuse.

 

[Ovech-King]

Whatever you like , you just have to appreciate the variety of games Ubisoft pumps out in a timely manner and with pretty much zero bugs at launch

 

[sncvsrtoip]

This star wars game looks awsome but wonder what res and fps on ps5/xsx ;d

 

[XesqueVara]

That StarWars game was good btw.

 

[Jigsaah]

Cringe as fuck...no shot people are clapping after seeing that and the audio mix was absolute dog shit.

Paid actors in the audience or all ubi employees.

 

[Pop]

First Xbox with no Halo and now Ubi with no Division(not counting that mobile crap)

Disappointing

 

[Ogbert]

Star Wars looked pretty fun. Liked the Space stuff.

Massive should get the third person stuff right.

They should basically just make the Division in the Star Wars universe.

 

[Thabass]

Star Wars: Outlaws looks amazing.

Beyond Good and Evil is dead. Don't try to tell me otherwise.

 

[Thief1987]

Fable Main Character (Microsoft) Vs Star Wars Outlaws Main Character Ubisoft

Both equally flat though

 

[Bry0]

Can’t wait for the UBI trademark downgrade at launch. Lol

 

[KXVXII9X]

Outlaws looks really good visually. It looks like an actual current gen game.

Because they're pretty much copy/paste jobs. The gameplay loop in most Ubi games is really stale.

Star Wars has some nice object density and textures, but I've played it 100 times already.

 

[Saiyan-Rox]

Where was AC: Hex

 

[Drizzlehell]

Damn, she hot.

Ooo now thats a interesting idea

 

[Heisenberg007]

Ubisoft won Summer Game Fest!

Several good games with proper gameplay and release dates.

Star Wars Outlaws in particular looks fantastic!

 

[Ballthyrm]

The gameplay loop in most Ubi games is really stale.

In most AAA TBH. StarField didn't have many original ideas either.

 

[RoadHazard]

Ground to orbit takeoff. That’s it for me. This is good.

Except that was clearly just a disguised loading screen, with a very jarring transition to suddenly being in orbit.

 

[SCB3]

Beyond Good and Evil is dead

Good, I still have no idea why people want a second one at all, the first game was mediocre as fuck

 

[bargeparty]

Fable Main Character (Microsoft) Vs Star Wars Outlaws Main Character Ubisoft

missing the point of fable characters lol

 

[kruis]

Ya'lls obsession with female character looks in video games is starting to get kind of funny.

It's refreshing when I see a new game featuring a white male protagonist. I'm getting sick of the diversity pandering.

 

[kyussman]

Stop clapping yourselves.

 

[Stuart360]

I like how the actress is quite cute, but the game character is ugly and manly looking.
I honestly hate this shit. I wonder if the actual devs do too.

 

[Elysion]

I guarantee you that this was ‚gameplay‘ in the same way the reveals of Watchdogs or The Division from back in the day were ‚gameplay‘. This gonna get downgraded hard. Search your feelings, you know it to be true.

First Next gen game

? You didn't see avatar?

 

[balls of snow]

Livestream sucks ass iq wise. Now watching the 4k trailers and even the crew looks good.

 

[geary]

Phill was in the crowd to see if Ubisoft is worth buying....I think he left with his pockets still full.

 

[Neo_game]

Outlaws looks amazing. Definitely a 30fps game. Mirage apart from that triple quick kills looks awesome as well. Both gfx wise and gameplay. They can easily make a proper POP if they really cared

 

[Draugoth]

Actress is Humberly González

 

[MidGenRefresh]

Actress is Humberly González

She looks better in real life, that's for sure.

This show's rating for me was a C-

It hovered at D+ for a while but they save it with some long awaited gameplay showcases and then announcing after show breakdowns. This is the definition of an old school E3 conference, and it's also why it's lower rated for me. We've moved beyond this type of show pacing and awkwardness for a good reason and it shows.

Some good standouts for me:
Avatar Gameplay looked good
PoP Lost Crown Gameplay looked really fun
Skate add on for Rider's Republic looks great and is a smart idea
The Crew Motorfest seems like a fun game(need to see more)
Assassin's Creed VR could be fun(if done right)
Assassin's Creed Jade(technically an official reveal)
Star Wars Outlaws Gameplay

Skull and bones being shown yet again with live music was a massive negative. The game should be released by now. Jet Set Radio can't save roller champions, so while it's cool to look at, I consider that a sad negative and a waste of money. However, who knows, maybe Ubisoft will team up with Sega in the future like they did with Nintendo. I'm sure the Mario Rabbids team and Starlink team would love to make some Sega IP games.

As a last note, the fidelity on these next gen games was so good that current day streams can't seem to handle it. I don't know what the solution can be but there needs to be one, because people here and on streaming sites mistaking heavy stream compression and artifacting for 'PS3 graphix' is embarrassing and makes both parties look bad.

so far this is even worse than sony's

It's because you guys have forgotten how slow and boring most E3 conferences used to be. This Ubisoft showcase was a harsh reminder of those times, because they still do the old school show pacing that most people here seem to be nostalgic for.

 

[dotnotbot]

She looks better in real life, that's for sure.

Not really but I guess it's subjective. I like her in-game look more.

Probably the best looking female protagonist in western AAA game since forever.

no its because they had nothing good to show...

 

[Zimmy68]

Sorry if I am being lazy but did they announce any Splinter Cell?

 

[DonJorginho]

Nothing good to show? Did we watch the same showcase? There were literally 4 great looking games.

 

[Thabass]

I never even played it lol

Good one

Actually, I'll take it back. You're right. She looks 'innocent/cute' in game.

 

[Ballthyrm]

It is really annoying me. We never get the 1/10 or the 2/10 and neither we get the 8/10 and above.
As if ugly or attractive people don't exist.

We are force-fed generic Jane and average joe all day long

 

[R6Rider]

I like this dev commentary stuff.

 

[March Climber]

no its because they had nothing good to show...

They literally showed 5 good things along with gameplay showcases(which is what this very forum was begging for during Microsoft's conference). The rest of the show was padded to the extreme. This could have easily been a one and done 30 minute conference but they bored some of you guys so much that you think that they showed nothing of value. That's how bad the pacing was.

Ubisoft needs to sit down and think about what makes a good conference in 2024 and beyond. It's not this.

Edit:

star wars and?

They did full gameplay showcases for AC Mirage, Avatar, Star Wars, PoP Lost Crown, and Crew Motorfest. Whether or not you like or don't like any of those titles, doesn't mean that they didn't show the content.

They are just a publisher, they don't have a luxury to show tons of third-party stuff

 

[DonJorginho]

star wars and?

Outlaws
Avatar FoP
AC Mirage
Prince of Persia

They all looked great, yes Avatar is a Far Cry reskin but a truly next gen level one.

Mirage looks like the real comeback that many have wanted from AC for years.

Prince of Persia looks like a really fun time, with fluid combat, striking visuals and a good movement system.
