E3 (but not really) 2022

I don't swear said:
Or Microsoft pace their big announcements in Nintendo-style directs, which Sony is doing somewhat successfully with their State of Plays. With Nintendo's last direct, there's still a decent amount of content that I'm sure has left people satisfied, and they're going to have another one within the month. Xbox would be better with 2-3 40 minute directs instead of throwing up for 95 minutes and have that satiate us for the next 365 days.

it's objectively the best solution but then we enter weird stretches where there's really nothing to talk about and people get antzy. There was over a year without a real nintendo direct and while there was nintendo stuff in that interim people got real weird and bitter about it, but that kind of stuff is really inevitable.

Being a consumer of video games is masochistic, we're all masochists and video game conferences are in a catch-22 because game devs still don't know what they're doing after Cyberpunk 2077. I'm gonna save up for a PC and start packing up my loses so I can actually play video games.

It has to be a 24 hour around the clock console war or things just wouldn't be normal.

The one thing I'm hoping these shows or movies do is just generate constant ad campaigns and hype bullshit. Allowing clickbait youtubemen toc raft elaborate narratives that will be disproven the following week.
 
Will skip Capcom for tonight. My prediction is: RE4Remake, SF6 and Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak. I actually refunded the last one (the DLC, not the original game I might add), since the Wirebugs and especially the Spiribirds (temp buffs) left a bad taste in my mouth. The new/reused monsters are cool, but that's it.

I felt like Rise was moving in the right direction. World's more animalistic ai was cool on paper but in practice the monsters come across as spastic and pretty boring to fight. Dudes in Rise Felt like a good return to the older style without completely reverting. Honestly the only capcom thing I've been disappointed with these last 5 years was RE3make which felt half assed. Everything else i've really enjoyed, especially DMC and RE8.

Rise to me felt a bit too fast and loose like attacks didn't have any real weight behind them. Also the levels were more spread out than world requiring more downtime than fighting. They made a bunch of changes that felt closer to the stuff in Generations Ultimate and not like a general improvement on what world established.

They're bringing back the diseases from 4 and those just kind of felt annoying to deal with.
