Social NintenZone Social 6.0 - L'Arachel Edition, Apparently?

[Robert of Normandy]

Microsoft's conference was cool I guess

Didn't really show anything I was interested in so it's hard to really get hyped, but there sure was a lot of stuff!

 

[KingofPhantoms]

Looking forward to Nintendo's E3 more than any of the others.

I am extremely happy to see more of Kingdom Hearts 3, however. Can't complain about the presence of a Frozen world. It was all but a shoo-in, lol.

 

[Wario Bros.]

It's J-Stars but with grittier graphics so far.

So far the stages seem to be set on real life locations rather than ones from the franchises.

Feels weird watching this when Naruto is using the exact same voice clips from Super Smash Flash 2.

 

[PLATINUM7]

Hmm... it’s almost like someone already made this joke.

So good it needs to be said twice.

Also can't hurt to double check the maths.

Also can't hurt to read the freaking page better

Oh, that looks neat, I'll give it some consideration of it's coming to the Switch(is it?)
Artstyle looks weird on closeups but fine otherwise.
But what was that about the roster screen that people were talking about?

 

[Megadoomer]

***** I thought the Bethesda conference started at 7... it’s 7:13!

It doesn't start until 7:30 by your time.

 

[praline]

Todd Howard’s voice is weirder than I thought it’d be.

 

[Aurane]

*pets* it'll okay little platinum.

Yeah I just figured that out lol

Nope the game is PS4, XB1 and PC only.

The roster screen is this one.

 

[ChikoLad]

People are real excited for FFVII Remake right now.

Also these three players were the only ones my team could find in the whole two hour session. Most matches were against bots. E3 has left Ranked Dissidia deader than usual.

 

[Aurane]

I crave TES 6 for the rest of eternity.

 

[Chrono.]

I know I'm late on this but whatever...

Hopefully there's some more obscure or unconventional ones like D.Gray Man, Kuroko's Basketball, Haikyuu and/or Food Wars.

Hoping Yami Yugi makes it in too, he wasn't in J-Stars and that was a huge missed chance.

 

[praline]

This Bethesda pre-show is really bad.

Death Note. It was in the trailer.

 

[Deleted member]

Oi, Bamco, where the hell are my MHOJ news?
Bamco: "we got you fam"
Also Bamco: *releases Shigaraki gameplay at 144p*

They're significantly increasing the speed at which they reveal new info but c'mon, I expected some news on E3. Maybe the Sony conference will have some stuff.

Nope the game is PS4, XB1 and PC only.

The roster screen is this one.

Oh, that's a shame, guess I don't have too worry about it now though.

Man, only 4 Narutos and Sasukes tho? They really need to step up their game. Storm 4 had much more than that!

 

[Chrono.]

The Fist of the North Star game by the Yakuza devs seems to be on the way to overseas.

There was a problem fetching the tweet

Pls be real.

 

[Deleted member]

I hope Windows eventually accepts Baldi in my PC.

Going to play Sonic Mania.

 

[Wario Bros.]

Not watching Bethesda's show but hope you guys get some nice stuff.

 

[Megadoomer]

Not sure if a link's been posted, but here's the Bethesda stream

[ChikoLad]

Just realised something about the KH3 trailer.

Spoiler

Aqua is the only one who knows where Ven is and is the only one who can open the Chamber of Waking.

And now she's been 'norted.

It's gonna be an uphill battle for Sora and gang.

I forgot about D. Gray Man.

I just want Gohan in this one, hopefully Ultimate Gohan, but I wouldn't complain if it was SS2 Gohan or Great Saiyaman either. The roster will be what decides if I want this game or not. It'd be cool if Kuwabara was also in this one.

 

[vaanrose]

"We'll start with a game we announced a few weeks ago through our friends at Walmart Canada."

Okay, that was a good joke, lol.

 

[praline]

I am not ready to rage

 

[Swamp Sensei]

"Are you ready to rage?"

 

[Chrono.]

I'm not ready to rage.

 

[Swamp Sensei]

I'm not ready to rage.

I don't think Rage was ready to rage.

 

[praline]

I like how bored the audience looked lol

 

[PLATINUM7]

I really just roll my eyes when E3 conferences include stuff like musical performances rather than games.

 

[Disfunkshunal]

Wait, was that not gameplay footage?

 

[praline]

This is so awkward lol

 

[Aurane]

*looks at watch*

 

[Swamp Sensei]

Gotta admit though.

I will always admire artists who use pianos in rock songs.

 

[praline]

The footage they showed, they already showed atleast twice before.

 

[Dr. Jojo Phantasma]

Bethesda is blowing it already huh

 

[Disfunkshunal]

So, if anyone isn't interested in Bethesda's presentation, or wants something to watch after it's done, check out my last minute pre-E3 project.

Good video, overall I agree with your thoughts on both the pros and cons with the game, and I do think that it's pretty apparent that the games are meant to bridge the gap for players that aren't a part of the main Pokémon series rather then cater to core fans. It's not a bad direction for the game by any means, and as you said, it definitely seems to be working, but it is one that was bound to be controversial and GF did handle the situation well when approaching it and how they announced it.

As for me, I'm pretty much with you in that the game doesn't appeal to me, at least not currently. The additions it adds are nice as following Pokemon and being able to ride any large Pokémon are features I wanted to see myself. However, I also feel it keeping so strictly to the originals is a huge detriment to the games since there was a great opportunity to expand on the Kanto region and give it more character and identity outside of the nostalgia, and instead it plays into that nostalgia with seemingly little else. I don't think it would've chased away the older fanbase if they took the time to make the environments more lively or added (pre-)evolutions like Espeon, Crobat, or Pichu to the roster to give more options that weren't available in the originals, so both of those issues being ignored just comes off as playing it too safe at the sacrifice of Kanto growing up with the times. There are still a few months to go, so there may be more to the game then any of us are aware of, but I will admit that currently it just seems like it's just Yellow with a few tweaks, and while that appeals to others that just doesn't appeal to me.

"IT WAS A ****ING ASTEROID!"

 

[PLATINUM7]

Wait, was that not gameplay footage?

Rage 2 is actually a rhythm game with a story mode featuring a small bald man with his giant bearded costar making awkward jokes.
