E3 may be dead, but the "E3 walk" lives on! Seriously though, this looks good. I loved that last one.

Same. It was my games festival. Though it was too corporatey, it was the one delightful part of the year where I could get excited about the most insignificant and significant announcements. And how could you forget the vague, CGI trailers that always overpromised.

The hype was real.

Why don't gamescon or gamesaward feel this way?

Exactly what I thought hah. We're still doing the slow walk and camera pans to show the environment?

I tried the first one near release but got bored quickly. Is it worth a revisit?

The first planet kinda drags on. The games gets slightly better after that. One of the DLC is quite good.

Idk who down voted you. The first game was one if the most boring games I've ever played in my life.

Nah first game sucks.

I can't make you like it if you didn't enjoy it the first time, but I thought it was a great FPS and RPG that didn't waste enough time, like its contemporaries might, to become boring. If you gave it a few hours, you've probably seen the cut of its jib.

I like that the companion seems to be more talkative.

Still covering all the npc faces so they don't have to animate them. I'd like at least some animated avatars. It feels so souless talking to masks.
