Ubisoft was great. I think the battle system of mario rabbids should be fun because it seems to be a little bit like xcom. Now im convinced of the game. Going back in ac was a good decision. Egypt is even better. And what an awesome ending with beyond good and evil 2. Seriously that vibe and artstyle is so awesome. Im really looking forward to their games.
EA
Highs - Fifa (after the event), Star Wars BF2 (/drool!)
Lows - Corporate Experience.
Microsfoft
Highs - Dragon Ball, Ori, Last Night, Cuphead, Sea of Thieves, Phil Spencer
Lows - XbOX price, poor poor Crackdown 3! Lack of compelling games in like 42 shown!.
Ubisoft
Highs - Rabbids segment was win!, Great Atmosphere mostly and BG&E2 reveal.
Lows - Steep no show, Not enough gameplay, BG&E2 reveal.
Hey, Ubisoft actually had a few cool things to show off.
Grift Land is utterly beautiful, and if SMT is anything to go by, I do love a decent negotiation system. [Actually, this turned out to be a PC game from some other company, not Ubisoft. Now I'm 50% less interested, at least until it gets ported to a console]
Of course, Ubi would save the gameplay trailer for Assassin's Creed Origins for their show. Now I'm legitimately excited for it...at least, I'm excited to explore its world. They haven't given me a good reason to believe the actual gameplay will be fun, but at this point, it might be able to Black Flags its way into my collection just based on its setting alone.
Speaking of Black Flags, I'm glad they're finally making a standalone Pirate game. Seriously, that's all I needed from them, and they delivered in Spades. I'd say "too bad it has to compete with Microsoft's Sea of Thieves," but despite my overwhelming interest in the latter, this will probably be the one I actually buy & play...
And yes, Beyond Good & Evil 2 still exists. I think. I can't find a working trailer for it, and the website won't lod in, so I'm just gonna have to take everyone's word for it.
Granted, they still found ways to tick me off. I can roll my eyes at The Crew 2, Far Cry 5, and more Steep, but I cannot forgive them so easily for making an interesting-looking Space shooter game, and ruining it with Toys-to-Life mechanics. Granted, it's Ubisoft, so I'm sure they would've ruined it some other way, but still! Now I can't even expect to dig it out of a Gamestop bargain bin 8-10 months after it releases!
EDIT: Is Age of Empires Definitive Edition different from two games I already have on Steam?
Haven't watched the conference yet, but I watched a couple of trailers. Did Ubisoft actually have the best conference so far? BG&E2 looks promising. Starlink looks interesting for sure. And even that Mario game doesn't look half as bad. I can imagine it would be a decent game if those Rabbids weren't in it!
Anyway, I think I'll watch the entire conference in a minute. Pulling an all nighter here and I need to kill some time until the Sony conference.
2 more hours until that juicy Monster Hunter reveal!
By the way, Skull & Bones looks pretty awesome, but it's another Ubisoft game with mandatory online... I guess it's another game I won't play in that case...
