So for the first half of 2020

 

The Last of Us Part II

Cyberpunk 2077

Final Fantasy VII Remake

likely Nioh 2

probably Ghost of Tsushima

Elden Ring

 

Mother of God.

 

My problem now is knowing that PS5 is coming so soon after some of these launch, will it be a GTAV / TLOU thing where I play it on current gen and then re-play it on next gen because it's so much improved on the new hardware? I don't have time for that anymore, so I guess I'm better off waiting? I still refuse to believe cyberpunk will be a satisfying experience played on ps4.

there is no way anything could match the original soundtrack. 

I'd say it depends on how SE handles it. A lot of the early FF music has sounded pretty good when translated into more modern formats. They would be stupid to not use a lot of what is already created, but its SE.... so... Who knows.

Huh. You guys don't want to buy the same game several times to have the full experience? Guess some people will never be happy.

Part of me hopes it never gets finished. The final part just never comes out.

I remain skeptical. :p 

 

Hey, that's why I said the others were likely or probably!

 

The ones I'm pretty sure of are TLOU II (meant for 2019, so I doubt it'll get delayed past the first half), Nioh 2 (can't imagine this is something that has to face a billion delays), Elden Ring (I don't feel Miyazaki's games get delayed a ton) and FFVII (just cuz they finally have a date and it's really completely my gut thinking they're more sure it'll be at least first half). 

 

Cyberpunk I can see getting delayed just because it's supposed to be huge. Ghosts of Tsushima I think could be first half, but it wouldn't surprise me if it were a fall game. 

 

But whatever: I figure they're all 2020. :p

I seriously hope we see TLOU2 in the first half. I'm salivating for that game.

 

I was mostly going to make a joke about Elden being a late game, since GRRM is part of it. :p

Surprised about the criticism.

This game could have been shown to me as a new title and I'd still be more excited for it than 95% of games shown this E3.  (so far)

 

Being my remake dampens my excitement a little.  But that's just how low the bar the industry has set as of late for this to be at the top of my radar.

I do like the homage to ATB in the battle system.  Seems like a good compromise.  Hope limit breaks are there too.

That really isn't saying much. Being near the top of a pile of meh doesn't magically make it not meh. It looks better than I thought it would (mainly DUE to the ATB thing which at least means it won't be 100% mashing), but it still looks like a mediocre ass Square Enix action RPG. Until they get someone designing their combat systems that's ever actually played a good fucking action game, I really don't care all that much.

It’s not saying much.  But I view that more as a slight against most else on display.

 

Their demo looked straight-up fun in a year where not much fun is being shown.  They deserve the props for producing a proper stage demo which was by all reasonable accounts, good.

 

And if there was more good things to say about this E3, I think its showing still would have been a highlight.

during the press conference last night, they said there is two blu-ray discs full on content. Not a mention of it being episodic. Is that speculation or confirmed? 

 

It would suck if its episodic. 

 

Combat looked great. I wouldve like to see more of the exploration or just walking around midgar in general. That would help me determine if this game is going to capture the same charm as the OG.

I'm not digging the English voices or Tiffa's redesign.

 

I think the English voices are good. Better than most JRPG ENG dub, but I don't like that the lip sync isn't good. Like, the current eng dub is good enough that I'd prolly use it, but with the bad lip sync I rather use JP dub.  And uh, how is Tifa redesigned?

Stockings and visible sports bra is hardly a change. Her tits really don't look much smaller either, just more smushed.
