I take back every complaint I ever had about any Nintendo Direct because good god they seem to be the only company that understands pacing in these presentations. The only consistent down spot I can really think of with Directs is when they just have trailers for RPGs that ramble about the setting for what feels like six hours but even then they haven't done that in awhile.

Turned it off the second he said it was the final game. There were a few highlights but by and large that was f***ing terrible.

This show was pretty mediocre, nothing out there really grabbed my attention.

Still feel like the winds are blowing toward a new Ace Attorney with the sale going on but guess going to have to shift my focus to hoping it's in the Nintendo Direct whenever that happens.

Oof, what a stinker. I appreciate the people behind Summer Game Fest trying to fill a void E3 left when it came to showcasing upcoming games but no one brought anything of substance to the opening show.

A couple things that caught my eye but I'm just kind of over AAA games at this point outside Survival Horror (so just RE and maybe a Silent Hill if lucky). One thing I'm glad is looking at the trailers on YouTube I see a few smaller Survival Horror games that play like the PS1 era REs and SHs, and not Amnesia or Outlast anymore. One of the good things about getting older is the people now making art like what you liked growing up.
Also what was with all the third person games going first person for a sec. Did a popular game do that recently and they were just copying, cause too many did it to be a coincidence.

Yeah, actual SGF was a bunch of nothingness outside Civ7.
Day of the devs actually had a couple of games I'm excited for, Petal Runner and especially UFO 50.
Devolver was... Devolver. No news on The Plucky Squire outside that it will release this year, nothing on Skate Story (you know, the one where you're a demon made of GLASS and PAIN and you skate around?) and Tenjutsu looked cool.
So yeah, there are cool things, but nothing on the major budget part of things.

Went in to this show expecting nothing huge and came out pleasantly surprised. Neva looks great and Wonderstop definitely has my attention. Lego Horizon on Switch is a mindf*** lmao
Alan Wake 2 dlc was the highlight for me. AW2 is up there for one of the best games I've ever played. Rose is playable? Jesse is back? Yeah I'm so in haha.

I take back every complaint I ever had about any Nintendo Direct because good god they seem to be the only company that understands pacing in these presentations. The trailers end then instantly hard cut to Geoff being like "that's the game ok next thing" was so jaring. Let the moment simmer for a bit to let it sink in for the viewer first instead being like "looks cool anyway next up..." Also going from Slitterhead to Killer Bean was so unintentionally funny to me. Like that's such a hard turn of tone. It felt so poorly produced.

Really don't see the point of opening with COD when you've already announced in advance that you'll be showing it later.
Edit: That every game since has been actual name product kind of makes it all the more confusing.

South of Midnight looks really choppy but potentially pretty fun.

Elder Scrolls VI is never coming out. It's a hoax Bethesda made to merely increase shares.

Big Head Mode as a gameplay mechanic is a really damn cool idea.
