Tick... tock... tick... tock.
 
When did Obsidian start working on Avowed (and I mean actual development, not pre-production or conceptualization)? After Outer Worlds? If so, there's no way this is coming out this year, probably not even next year. With the exception of pure hack'n'slash titles like From's games, these kinds of RPGs take at least 5 years to make these days, often even longer. We're gonna be lucky if it makes 2024, tbh.

What we know is that Phil and other had said they played the game and found it amazing last year. Now, what kind of a build was this game in at the time? no idea, but that is all I know.
 
I have a feeling that they will be announcing or updating a lot of cool shit…

…but none of it will be for this year.

95 mins is a lot of time. They are probably going to show 4-5 gameplay demos and I guess at least 20 games. I hope they show whatever they have even if it is in pre alpha stage. CGI trailer IMO is of no use these days.

A lot of fart sniffing talking i assume also.

"We at xbox games pride ourselves on diversity and inclusion, and this month we are offering our pride controller, we want to make sure everyone feels seen and once again want to let everyone know, when everyone plays we all win…..blah blah blah"

    [*]There's a company showing more games than Bethesda (SEGA? Bandai Namco?)
    [*]No avowed being shown
    [*]He has no info about Zenimax
    [*]Something Halo is being announced
    [*]Kojima is going to be there, but no Overdose...some kind of partnership? Announcement?
    [*]Starfield to have a sizeable demo
    [*]20-30 games to be there

With 95 mins show. 20-30 games shown is very realistic.

I think 4 or 5 gameplay demos will be shown for sure. So if gameplay takes 40-50mins. Reset of the time they can accommodate 20 CGI or in-engine trailer of 2min each.
 
Avowed releasing this year would be a pretty wild prediction.


of all the seasonings of the world why do you always pick salt.

I don't want another Elder Scrolls. If anything, I want something the size of Arx Fatalis. I feel a tighter, more confined play space with a focus on gameplay systems and choices there in would be a far better fit.

Man you're a bit of a dick eh
 
Can't be worst than 15 minutes of Drunkman talking, right?

Lets hope for the less CGI trailers.

I feel like all the "insiders" are just throwing shit out there to keep everyone guessing. Maybe they know what will be shown, maybe they won't... I think they are just messing with us for fun and/or to fuck with whatever leakers may have some prior knowledge of what they could show
 
I have zero fucks to give for anything they show that is more than a year maybe two if I'm feeling ok that doesn't come out with a year. Also GTFO if you show us anymore cgi. I bet a large portion of the show is going to be indies that most won't care about our will be on Gamepass

Well they hit my points.
Latest dates on games shown 2023 and sooner. Awesome improvement
No cgi that didn't also have game play or no cgi at all (can't remember). Awesome again
Sadly, spot on for the indies things. :(
 
They delivered on everything I had in mind. Forza Motorsport looks incredible. Starfield is going to be amazing to journey through. Its all about the immersion and getting lost in your own adventure.

Silksong x Atlus x Kojima was pretty amazing. Maybe the best show Xbox had, but still more potential.
 
95 minutes. thats how you fucking do it. sick and tired of sony and their short ass showings. you would think they were on a tight budget with the way they acting when in reality PS brand is making more money for them than it ever has before. show them how its done, microsoft.

Whether its CGI trailers or a mix. It will be better than Sony's show.
At least Xbox is giving their fans something to get excited about their platform. Just like every other publisher for "e3" month apart from one…... cough cough ( Playstation )
PlayStation will have a show in 2022 you better believe
