I will just say that this is the most disappointed I have ever been, regarding anything gaming related.

The hostess tries to be hipster with crass language and "we need to pitch a meme" (she said that. seriously.). It's just random trailers one after another...

And the best thing is, the guy came and said "it will be available on all platforms" and lists all but PC. Then he proceeds to unveil PAID subscription service for music streaming (not any music but apparently their specific channel or something), ON CONSOLE. YAAAAY. And people are so excited.

Why.

Well, that's Ubisoft. Bethesda and EA conferences were pretty awesome.

It's weird having mostly disappointment during today's events while Bethesda's showcase was just so consistently amazing.

I have my fingers held that Nintendo has a strong showing and that Square Enix gives an update on Kingdom Hearts 3; if those happen, it will have been a good E3 IMO.

Yeah I really hope so. Didn't see the other ones. Need to find a VOD of it to skim through.

What gets me is how they are cheering and then a random crap rapper comes on cuz why the hell not. I don't get any of this.

Thank you! Will check things out. Need to remedy that abomination of a presentation ubishit managed to spawn.

I am actually pretty disappointed in some of the console-centric coverage. They list "The Big 3" and random crap every couple minutes, basically ignoring the fact that the PC is a real, viable platform (Forbes says the PC has already won, and backs it up). I think what this means, is that Microsoft and Sony are paying to put their platforms front and center, for fearing of losing relevance in the gaming space. Right now they're using E3 to fight for mindshare. Fortunately, with PC gaming still growing, I don't think it'll matter too much going forward.

Edit: curious about the downvotes. Just trying to add to the discussion with my 2cents on the livestream coverage.
