User blog comment:RuckusQuantum/E3 2016: My Thoughts/@comment-26326346-20160619234402

I found E3 2016 to be awful with the Ubisoft and Sony conferences to be the only saving grace. I was expecting information on one of the new Star Wars games and instead EA pretty much said, "You'll get a video of people staring at their desks while smiling creepily and like it!"

@Ruckus: One thing that I need to tell you about Resident Evil 7 is that both the trailer and demo does not contain anything from the real game, Capcom has stated this. However, I too have high hopes for it as it will return to its survival horror roots and the story is being written by the guy who wrote Spec Ops: The Line (great game, go play it. Not another COD clone).

I enjoyed Watch Dogs 1 and am super stoked for 2, especially based upon what I saw, likewise with Dishonored 2. Perhaps I liked both of those games presentations the best because they showed actual gameplay? *hint hint E3 presenters*

Mafia 3 looks incredibly solid and superior to Mafia 2 which is one of my all time favorite games. I love the idea of whittling down the Italian Mafia bit by bit while appointing different territory to lieutenants of your choosing. Looks incredibly reactive and neat!

Detroit: Become Human looks awesome and makes me jealous of Playstation 4 owners and them having exclusivity to it. I really liked Heavy Rain which was also made by David Cage, so I feel like this will be great too.

Tyranny by Obsidian Entertainment got a new trailer that gave a quick glimpse of gameplay. I'm super stoked to see a new RPG from them and I like the premise that evil has already won by the start of the game and you work for them. That's been my dream premise for a video game forever. I'm glad I get to play as evil in an evil dominated society.

Agents of Mayhem which is connected to the Saint's Row universe/series looks fantastic as well. I was a bit disappointed by the fact that we cannot create our own characters and will have to choose between 12 pre-defined agents, but I am happy that they each have unlockable skins. It's wacky humor ought to make for an interesting and exciting game.

Dead Rising 4 has me worried as they made Frank West from Dead Rising 1 look way too young and outright changed his voice actor despite the fact that they got him to reprise his role for the DLC in both 2 and 3. Here's hoping that my idea of him being an imposter/wannabe plays out.

It was nice to see We Happy Few come out of hiding. I had thought that had got cancelled under the radar. Looks very Bioshock-esque which is appropriate considering some of the people that are making it worked on the original Bioshock.

South Park: The Fracture But Whole looks like a great follow up to The Stick of Truth. I was happy that they went with that idea as I had told one my friends that they ought to do Coon and Friends next upon having finished The Stick of Truth :P Can't wait to dive in and play another wacky South Park adventure.

The news that Elder Scrolls 6 won't happen for quite a while (probably 6 more years) was really heartbreaking. Bethesda's Todd Howard said that they were going to put out two brand new IPs first, then we'd get an Elder Scrolls 6 :( As long as the new IPs are single player RPGs then things will work out and I'll manage to be entertained while I wait.

That's pretty much my thoughts on E3 2016. Hopefully 2017's is better and Bioware shows off some actual footage of the new Mass Effect and EA shows us new Star Wars that isn't Battlefront crap, though I suspect it'll be just Battlefront crap as 2 is coming out next year.
