I miss E3, /v/.I miss it a lot.
>>738817645I find myself currently engaged in the act of urolagnia, that is to say, the excretion, micturition or the process of expelling or voiding of urine, upon the celestial orb, otherwise known as Luna, the Earth's only permanent natural satellite, a large, spherical, rocky object in space that orbits the Earth.
I don't, it was always shit.
>>738817645As a GAMER I don't get respect
E3 was only cool as a physical event. Once it turned into a streaming """""""event""""""" it was already dead and buried.
>>738817645When the fuck did eggman marry tails
>>738817645Now companies don't even bundle their own games into a show. Directs are dead, State of Plays happen like once a year, and Xbox doesn't have any games. It's now just a Xitter post about a game coming out in a few months just soullessly shat out with a minute video. It's so FUCKING BORING
I miss the hype, but the conferences themselves were always dogshit.Why the fuck would I want to tune into a Microsoft or Ubisoft slop presentation in the present day.
>>738818368kek
>>738818903>always>present dayYou contradicted yourself. And besides it was funny to see a car on the E3 stage.
>>738819019In the past they were always dogshit.If they came back, they'd be dogshit still.Always and present day.
>>738817645I don't. The hype peaked with Twilight Princess and the cringe peaked with Konami 2010. It did its job and hung around a decade longer than it needed to before returning to the earth.
BELIEVE IT OR NOT I'M WATCHING E3I NEVER THOUGHT I'D GET IN SO EASILYhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBVArvGRhB0
ever wonder what the bottom of an Avatar's foot looks like? WELL BAM.
>E3 is dead>Basically every developer showcase is dead>Every year have to tune into the Geoff Keighly Presents: Who Paid To Win All The Awards Ever Show to see anything get announced>People have to tolerate this shit because the nintendork overrepresentation in samefags and media means nintendo can do shit like stuff a game by paying for a fuckhuge media blitz for some mediocre shit nobody cares about like what happened with New Soup Switch and Sanic: Supper Stairs>mfw I actually miss ads over this psyop bullshit>they actually fucking made me miss ads
yeah it was a fun time even if I didnt like any of the games, the threads were such a great time
>>738817645honestly fucking noose yourself you consumer faggot, if you knew whats good for you, you wouldnt be fat retarded and incapable of finding good content onlinee without a man putting on a puppet show to shove 90 percent pure garbage down your throat. kill yourself better yet i hope your entire retarded generation dies asap
>>738823043You just had to be there.
>>738823229The only E3 that ever mattered to me was the cyberpunk one due to me being 20 years old, but still fuck your distractions, kids will live and die as consequence of your compliance. kill yourself asap
>>738823229why are they all nazi saluting thats so hecking problematic
>>738823585why is X doing Y, thats so Z. will you lower class apes ever realize youre arguing with the person in line at the grocery while big brother is pushing you seed oils and slop resulting in your fucking cardiac arrest tomorrow you pigs
>>738823585>>738823229youre both too fucking old to be here, please, do something good for society, bomb something or just off yourself so noone has to notice you and lose their faith.
>>738824002Im here forever, also I have a nice job
>>738817645I pissed on the conference
>>738817645Me too, anon. Me too.I also miss shitposting on live with /v/.The closest we have now is Geoff's video game olympics, directs (which Cuckurawa has done his best to kill them) and the absolute state of play.
>>738824050thats cool man, if you dont feel shame youre either going to hell or a right proper lad, so i dont care and im going to bust a nut to femdom porn now
>>738817645The TGAs don't come close. I just skimmed the last one and decided it wasn't worth my time. Don't think I'll watch this years. E3 became a yearly car crash but at least it was entertaining.
I laugh when you grieve
>>738817645hi
The last E3 ended on an hour long Take-Two presentation where some ugly fat people in a Zoom meeting said you were bad because you were born white and they announced zero games
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2vs-zUDsSfkhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vO_6coYZAqQG4 coverage of E3 was always kino. I have to assume anyone who shits on E3 ITT never experienced it with the G4 buff. Both of them are gone and Sessler became uhhhhhhh so I can't help but grieve
I mean we got /v/3 but it's not the same. Not bad. Just not the same.
>>738818106Banning booth babes was the beginning of the end for all conventions, E3 included.
>>738818903I miss the memes. This is legitimately the last meme I think E3 ever had.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=anViUhA0wPk
Cool!
You know why Geoff Keighley always has to put a bunch of random garbage at his shows? The reality of the matter is E3 made sense as an industry event, not just as a "lmao advertise to gamers" holy week, when publishers were shitting out 5-10 games a year. Now Activision shows up as part of Xbox to show off this year's Call of Duty, and maybe some random Blizzard expansion thing. That's all Activision does these days.Game development also takes a long ass time. Anybody will remember when for like 2-3 years Sony literally showed the same four fucking games at every conference east and west because they were taking forever to come out.So what would be the honest point of E3 in 2026 for any serious publisher, e.g. everybody who has enough clout to not bother with the Dorito Pope tax? Temporarily derail game development to produce a trailer or vertical slice for an arbitrary date. There aren't enough games being made by big publishers to warrant E3. And games aren't coming out fast enough to need a big one hour sizzle reel.Even Nintendo who pioneered the Direct format, literally not a few days ago just randomly dropped a new Star Fox game announcement. They've been de-emphasizing directs in favor of a tighter "reveal-to-release" pipeline.It was fun to have a little whimsy, a week or so when /v/ could actually care about video games, actual real fucking video games, instead of inane grievances, and have things to be excited for. But there is no real reason to have the infrastructure for something like E3 in place anymore. Circling back to Dorito look at how much he charges just for a minute of airtime. Hundreds of thousands of dollars for longer trailers. That shit could pay for multiple actual developers and artists and stuff.
>>738831314>the last direct was in september>the star fox reveal was not a real directthis has to stop
>>738817645Snapcube reference
>>738823229I still remember hosting the 2022 collage, the last complete one
>>738835953there was one after but never got much done
Lythero is funnier
>599 US DOLLARS>GIANT ENEMY CRAB>RIIIIIIIIIDGE RACER!take me back bros..............
>>738836197https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RDdk47stWGofor me it's Reggie. I'm not even a tendie anymore but back then if he was up at the conference, i watched quietly for him to say something badass
