#EasyAllies #Gaming #PlayStationShowcase - Hry
Huber, we love you man! Thanks for always being a fan of Cat Quest!
You're quite the gentlebro.
The mood whiplash from Neva to Cat Quest lol.
@ray148
Y'know I wasn't gonna say anything, but now that you mention it...
Regardless of the showcase it’s always great vibes watching the allies reactions
Idk what people are realistically expecting? They showed off like 30 something games. Several new announcements/new IPs, gameplay for already announced games, and Spider-Man looked awesome.
@@cryhwks While you're not wrong about this in general, people just were (imo, rightfully) expecting a lot more first party news. A lot of the games shown were multi-platform etc.
@@cryhwks all the remotely interesting games were all multiplat.
couldn't agree more.Easy allies reaction especially Huber always make me feel hype for the game even if I dont know the game
@@cryhwks Mmhm, and i feel that they generally had a little something for everyone, it was a pretty good showcase IMO
From a third party perspective, that was pretty good.
From a first party perspective, Sony massively dropped the ball
Yep.
Phantom Blade 0? Bungies first PvP focused game in a while? Spider-Man 2? Man's on crack.
@@Shadow43412 Phantom Blade & Bungie's game are both multiplatform
@@nick4810 Phantom Blade is PS5 exclusive. Bungie is owned by Sony, so that means it's only coming to PS5 and PC through their own system. They are still 1st party games.
@@Shadow43412Marathon is coming to all platforms, it literally says so in the PR mail. Bungie might be owned by Sony but from the very moment they took over, they made it very good clear that Bungie would remain independent and is thus not part of the PlayStation studio umbrella
I came here for the Cat Quest reaction and was not disappointed.
Yup so good 36:09
glad to see someone else reacted to talos principle 2 the same way i did :)
I’m so pumped for it, I’ve been hoping for this for so long
hell yeah!
By far most excited for the Revenant Hill announcement, I was absolutely not expecting that to show up here.
36:09 love to see the hype 😁
yayyyy finally someone reacting to catquest 3 the same way I did haha. So hyped!
Phantom Blade was my favorite game of the show, came outta nowhere and the combat animations look ridiculous. Will definitely keep an eye open for that one.
as a PC this was pretty good, Talos Principle II, Alan Wake II & new night in the woods, I'm satisfied. Also the aesthetics of Marathon are out of this world, looks like a mix between mirrors edge and that old neotokyo source mod
neo-yokio
*Snickers*
@@comradestannis ???
@@morkmon It's an anime reference, but, like, to a bad anime.
*DRAGON'S DOGMA 2 HYPE*
Believe it, Allies, we are out there,
the ones that JUMPED at that glorious gameplay :D finally, the world will believe the hype, that's _Combat_ babyy!!
What a Game.
What a Game.
The monsters, the pawns, the memories, duude!
L&R
I am SO happy that it all looks like Dragon's Dogma still! Hacking at a griffin's neck five hundred feet in the air? I am THERE.
@@charoleawood Looking Awesome isn't it? :D Keeping the soul intact, improved tech, more spells & moves, bigger world, choice-driven, can't wait to slay both oldies & newbies with what Capcom has done with Monster Hunter, plus Resident Evil's engine!! SO HYPED
Can't wait to equip-up and combine my Pawns either, so fun--most underrated game EVER.
I took so many screenshots of me & my pawns on my PS3 during our adventures you can't even imagine haha, so Happy it's coming back, coming back hard!
@@archonrex5600
Totally!
I loved making some freako looking pawns.
Hopefully the world design will also reward choice in player height --- short statured player characters could fit into places tall ones couldn't, tall ones had better climbing capabilities and could reach high ledges.
That was amazing.
Sony just killed it. It just ate micasoft for breakfast.
And I watched in the corner. Drooling.
The game looked a-maze-ing. Yum yum
I share Isla's excitement for the talos principle 2, the first one is so fucking good.
32:28 Huber "Jones takes a sip"
*Brad reaches for his bottle*
Pavlovian
Hahah I sure reached for something too
I wonder if the character in Alan Wake II that bears the face of Sam Lake is Zacharia Trench (former Director of the Bureau of Control). Because they appear to have the same voice actor. That voice actor also voiced Max Payne who also bears the face of Sam Lake
glad you guys r back!
They never went anywhere?
@@nick4810 my bad i thought they went hiatus recently
I can’t tell if I’m just misremembering, but I can’t recall a time where I've seen Damiani without a Yankees hat. I see you with that fresh cut!
That Alan Wake 2 trailer was so hype, on Kinda Funny and other places they didn't seem to care about it at all, i felt like i must have been watching something else. Glad to see you guys excited for it! 13 long years waiting for it and it looks like everything i hoped for and more
It's just not the kind of project that's "hype", but it sure looked great to me.
Pttf kinda funny? More like never funny hahah
I’m all about easy allies. Cause they are an Allie and so positive even when it’s not h good.
Cause when I have trouble getting it up there, I can just watch a video of easy allies hype and I’m happy and all excited and then coming all the way yay
I feel that's a thing because when the first Alan Wake came out it wasn't popular to play video games, we're starting to see people who actually have fun playing video games and people who play them because everyone else did.
Kindy Funny? Is that another podcast?
This was a lot of fun, not all the games I wanted to see, but still a jolly time!
Agreed!
Yep
I was the only guy excited about Cat Quest with my friends too I understand 😂
Hearing Huber talk about maximum hype is funny considering what we got 😅
36:08 Cat Quest came to save Hubet from the abyss
I liked: Phantom Blade 0, Helldivers 2, Alan Wake 2, Sword of the Sea, Cat Quest, Towers of Aghasba, Talos Principle 2, Granblue Fantasy Relink, The Plucky Squire
I have no idea why people would be excited for Phantom Blade 0. It's just Unreal 5 pretty graphics and mostly scripted sequences. We've seen a dozen of those games in recent years and they never deliver if they even come out at all.
34:00 Huber with the clutch Tycho ref.
I love the Allies. The positivity with them always puts me in a better mood
Hell yeah!
It’s amazing watching it back and seeing reaction to Hell Divers now that it’s the biggest game to release out of the bunch 😂
audio is a bit off in this video, had to crank up the volume for post show commentary, but damiani's voice was loud
This was a pleasure to watch! I love the genuine joy for games that get glossed over in other streams - Talos, AW2,cat quest. And the fact that the allies don’t dismiss games just because they’re not a sequel to something they’re familiar with.
Also, I’m not a fan of CGI trailers either, but the vibes from Marathon were amazing and I’m excited to see (and hear) more. That music. ❤
**found out the song from the Marathon trailer is from Justice. Not original, but damn if it didn’t fit perfectly and set a mood**
I was surprised on the Helldivers 2 announcement they didn’t recognize it till the guy wore the Helldivers suit. Because I immediately knew it was Helldivers 2 within the first few seconds. So when I heard super earth I immediately said “YEP. SUPER EARTH. HELLDIVERS 2 IS A THING LFG” played a lot of the first Helldivers and it is fun. Now second ones coming out and it’s on my top 3 anticipated for this year. So excited for it, Just need a date.
damn
Holy shit did you hit the nail on the head. Now it’s arguable the best game and most popular to come out of the whole bunch. Absolutely incredible game!!
I doubted FF7 Rebirth would show here since 16 is so close to release, here's hoping for some info on it in SGF
Yeah. I was surprised people were expecting Rebirth. Square can't take the hype from 16. Here's hoping 16 is the first mainline FF game since 12 that is a fan, critical and commercial success at launch.
AC MIRAGE combat is looking smooth and sick
Legitimately as pumped as Huber for the new Cat Quest, such fun games
Yeab I’m all about dat. It was just purr-fect.
You hear me ma man yum yum
@@CresentSoul 💀
So which one of you convinced Insomniac to use the EZA colour scheme for Miles' health bar and QTE prompts?
I did. You got a prob with that cutie pie
I understand this showcase didn’t live up to mine and others expectations but I appreciate your guys excitement for games. Alan wake 2 looks amazing!
Bloodworth with his pen/paper 👌🏾
watching all of your reactions it helps prove that this showcase had a little bit for everyone.
indeed
Whoah that Queens slander. Damn Gabby.
1:18:17 He's not just good at hunting, he's the best.. picture a pack of lions, and Kraven goes in... he's man handleling those lions throwing them around, and winning. He's a super soldier, basically cap with super strength, and the ULTIMATE hunter... I picture the film Predator always when thinking about Kraven. He's a beyond underrated character. Can't wait for this... just pray we can play as VENOM.
But is he then a product of a science experiment? I dont know anything about Kraven
@@magnainsomnia He has superhuman strength, speed, agility... he consumed herbal potions that makes him super human... he's basically BANE replace Banes Venom with Jungle fuel... he's the ultimate hunter, back breaker. He's Spideys Bane. He's the ultimate hunter. I remember loving him as a kid from comics, and cartoon in the 90's where he's hunting Morbius, Lizard, Spidey.. he just wants the ultimate prize, just like Bane.
Ah, yes, May, my favorite summer month.
Ah, yes, eummer, my favorite eummer season.
@@dng2usb fixed.

@@dng2usb god dammit stop 😂😂😂
I can finally play MGS! Was about to really try emulation to play these on my crappy Mac
Hear me out. The last time we got a Sony showcase in 2021 there were 2. One in May and one in Sept. With the absent of the majority of Sony 1st party studios, do you think we’ll get one come this Sept.?
Maybe, but they had stuff to show then. This time, I think they just don't. I wouldn't be surprised if we get a factions SoP, but that could also be at TGAs?
I expected more things to be revealed post Spiderman launch.
Maybe on another Showcase. Maybe at the VGAs. That means, no other big 1st party releases in 2023.
@@andreaslindenthal6654 Not that companies are wrong to do this, but I also think they don't want to cannibalize their own message. Sony is just showing off Spider-Man for now. Square-Enix is just showing off FFXVI (and not rebirth).
When those are out, we can get excited about the next showcases.
@@Ayoul Exactly what I think what happened. They kept the focus on the next big thing.
That’s sad. You are so dissapontment you are grasping for straws. Maybe go outside and enjoy a new activity
Jim Ryan needs to go!
Nah his a good man. His doing amazing job for thsi world. Without him, we would be very sad and not happy.
His making us all happy and ready to burst with joy and Coming lots
So be supportive and not mean. If we all believe then tinklebell won’t die
At least one playstation game has been nominated for goty every year that Ryan has been at the head so why would he have to go?
@@mitchellp7739 yeab Jim is a-maze-ing. We can’t let him go. Like his got kids man. And he makes good games with his sweat and tears and his own blood. I’ll gladly go on my fours for him always thy Sony lord
@@CresentSoul to each their own buddy. You can have whatever kinks you want
Luckily, I'm the biggest Alan Wake fan in this house! I was surprised to see it here, the game was announced at TGA 21 and the first AW is associated with 360 so both the Xbox showcase and SGF felt more likely to feature it.
I think that's why they showed it here. So that PS people new to the series would know it was multiplatform now.
A fellow man with fine taste i see. Alan Wake is one of the most underrated games of all time and this one looks incredible.
Dragon's Dogma 2 looks incredible and I am SO happy it is multiplatform! Sorry you didn't like your showcase, PlayStation fans, but I am over the moon about DD2 :)
Half a day with an audio engineer is all you need guys. I cant be the only one irritated by peek levels and distortion. (Long time viewer and listener)
I dont know what expectations everyone else had, but i enjoyed it.
Tower of fantasy looks like an anime version of EAs Anthem.
Holy...the clock bet was won by Blood, he got the closest LMAO!
Mega hyped for Dragon's Dogma 2 and the return of Marathon. Also, I loved that Kraven fake-out, making you think he's been redesigned for the modern age and then this poser gets got by the O.G. himself.
People thought the original no-name guy was Kraven?
Edit: Sorry, saw your comment before that part of the video. Color me surprised.
no Marathon isn't returning, they conveniently left out of the trailer the most vital information: it's a Tarvok-like, another GaaS basically. Oh, man...
I LOVE GRIS AND NEVA LOOKS LIKE MORE OF THE SAME. CAN'T WAIT!
oh i love y’all
56:46 i'm sorry, i must be imagining things , but isn't this freaking SAGAT teased ????
Too skinny and I didn't see a chest scar...looks more like Adon.
@@dng2usb idk if it's because of the lighting on that particular area, but as soon as you see him , you can notice a big scar shaded purple on his chest (much like the purple scars in his arm )
@@tribal0demon guess we'll see, haha. Sagat makes more sense to bring back since he's more integral to SF lore, but it would be great to see Adon again
@@dng2usb for sure , i'm good with either one also , maybe bring back both , that would be awesome
Wth was that. I was all excited. Like full and ready to burst. Just strong and up. Just couldn’t hold it longer. And then I saw this showcase - and everything just flopped.
Then I cried. 😢
Before this, i said "if they show so much exclusive stuff I wont find elsewhere, I'll get a PS5". Guess I'm saving money.
What do you game on currently?
I wish Mortal Kombat XII was announced at PlayStation Showcase 2023.
There isnt gonna be a Mortal Kombat XII for a loooong time. They are literally rebooting the series and starting with Mortal Kombat 1
It's not Solid Snake in Snake Eater, it's Naked Snake xD
Кто знает название музыки в начале стрима stay tuned где написано музыка играла весь стрим
Phantom Blade 0 looks great!!!
I don't know if it only me but the mic audio is a bit too low?
Not just you.. I just started watching and it's very blown out.. hoping it improves.
Hang on.. 'too low'?. maybe it is just you.
Phantom Blade looks dope af
@Pseudocide the parry combat was nuts.bloodborne meets Ninja gaiden meets black myth wukong
@@paulsmith9192 How would it even work? I feel like the game's gonna kinda have to play itself to be that flashy or they're just gonna expect people to be that badass at parries and attacks to survive.
@zeuanimals good question. Idk how the parry combat will work.but,it was sick seeing it
The "gameplay" is likely fake, its coming from a mobile developer, id be surprised if it comes out at all.
I will play them all...minus the VR
Yeab me too yum yum
Isla on point right after 2:03:27 that’s me after being disappointed by anything or anyone 😂
Pretty underwhelming showcase tbh. Can't wait for Alan Wake 2 but we already knew it existed. Would have loved to have seen something from Bluepoint or Sucker Punch. There was some great stuff in here to be sure, just lacked the heavy hitters many would expect. And it's unfortunate to see Sony chasing so many live service games, hoping one of them will stick.
Hopefully, they'll have some more announcements in the Fall but it's looking like a very light year for Sony outside of Spiderman.
Your an underwhelming showcase
@@CresentSoulSick burn bro
They were just focused on 2023. Sucker punch and bluepoint most likely have games for 2024
You know it bruh- feeeek Yeh! Yum yum
I thought that was a very good showcase. Showed a lot od variety
It's time for everyone to accept that last of us multi-player will NEVER live up to any expectation that may exist for it.
You are just sad that they didn't show anything! Maybe next month!
How did you come to this conclusion?
Well, my expectations for it are rock bottom, so I hope they can at least meet those!
I think it's interesting that all the best games from this event were all the sequels ( one threequel and one decasextaquel). No kidding, most of the games here were follow-ups or direct sequels, and all of them looked fantastic, fron Alan Wake 2 to Into The Woods follow-up to Ghsotrunner2 to Spiderman 2. Meanwhile, there were two really underwhelming Sony first party games that don't have any gameplay, a Splatoon rip off from Square Enix that looks less interesting than Splatoon, Bungie just playing Hype music over a CGI cutscene, the forever delayed Granblue RPG... Phantom Blade Ø looks really interesting, but it's maybe a touch concerning that there was so little showcased in terms of new IP's and new ideas.
I gave the show a solid B minus, as I really enjoyed all of the second and third party content, but yeah.. I think it makes sense that Sony didn't really hype this event up in their marketing like they usually had done before Covid. This feels much like, as JP of Dropped Frames put it: " We got to get out in front of Summer Games Fest, so let's put out what we do have and then hopefully everyone will forget that we didn't have everything they wanted by the time June is over."
I like I like I like
I thought it was a great show! So good to see Granblue Fantasy, and Phantom Blade 0 was a huge suprise and looked so far along with so much shown.
Call me a S-E shill, but if that Foam game ISN'T free to play, I'd be interested in trying it out.
Yeah it would have been nice to see a few more first party titles particularly what Astro is doing, but was still pretty packed. Shame about Alan Wake 2 being digital only... happy to wait a while for that to become a lot cheaper or a print run down the line.
Yeah. They did amazing. If we had this forever, then that’s perfect. Never need anything else.
We don’t need last of us multiplayer or Sony bend or bluepoint. That’s all shit. I just want cgi trailer. Gameplay is crap
And nah man your not a shill. I’m with you too. By your side. Making papa Sony happy . On our knees. Yum yum
Aside from MGS3, this was pretty lame. This is what happens when a company is hell bent on making exclusives that are "cinematic 3rd person action adventure" experiences, and refuses to invest in a more diverse 1st party lineup. The amount of time it takes is insane
And yet those games end up being GOTY contenders most of the time. Maybe you like rushed, shallow games but I prefer to wait for games that are actually of high quality
Neva❤❤❤
How’s it play? Oh you don’t know …. You just gonna judge by the front cover I guess
Well yum yum away
Queens is a top tier borough. Best Asian food in all of NYC and Flushing has some great karaoke spots and night life. Staten Island on the other hand… Gabby is just out of pocket for that statement.
Could have been better but yeah still got MGS3
No release date or even release window for it though. For all we know it could be years away.
Maybe I'm the only one who set proper expectations?
In the betting special all I said I wanted to see was
1. Spiderman showcase blowout.
Check
2. Metal Gear anything
Check
I am disappointed there is still no further news on Stellar Blade
Yeah, need that Stellar Blade
I mean… a remake of a 3 generation old game is 50% of your expectations? I would argue that your expectations are perhaps TOO low.
I though it was pretty lame due to lack of diversity. The industry can’t be just “this”. We need more variety of genres. We USED to have it.
@@JazGalaxy What are you talking about ? I get that showcase was mid but no diversity ? We had shooters,platformers,2d, openworld,
@@JazGalaxy There is way more variety of games than there ever was.
Both of those things were basically confirmed though. Not a big surprise. And as far as expectations go, this wasn't a State of Play but an actual Showcase, so I think people rightfully expected some more heavy hitters to be there.
Well that showcase was extremely disappointing. It felt like a third party showcase. Where was Naughty Dog, Santa Monica, Bluepoint, Sucker Punch?
They are currently making quality games that will likely all be goty contenders when they release. Why do you want them to rush instead of actually making quality games?
@@mitchellp7739 You realize that when a new game is revealed it needs 2-3 years to actually release right? We are in the mid of this generation and where are the games?
I don't know why anyone would expect something new for Bloodborne. From Soft is busy with Armored Core 6 AND Elden Ring DLC. They are not a big enough studio to be on 3 big projects at once.
Sony doesn't own Death Stranding. 505 Published it on PC after all.
Sheesh Isla's bias showed a lot. People (including Isla?) complain about Xbox showing CG trailers and not enough first parties all the time. Why should Sony get a pass?
idk how anyone could guess spiderman would be first and not the last game lol
They were all riding the hype train, it honestly should’ve gone first.
what a waste of a showcase... its just a state of play buffed...
CGI trailers are the worst and they have three from first party studios...WTF.
Overall, unfortunately, a disappointing Showcase for me, main reason being that their first party showing was a huge letdown after such a long break from Showcases. I know GaaS is the direction PlayStation said they were heading in, but still, three new GaaS IPs and, for me, only one doing enough to slightly pique my interest (Helldivers II, and technically we knew that was coming), a CGI teaser for Firewalk's game, and then gameplay for Spider-Man 2 which we already knew to expect this year. And that didn't even get a date?!
There was nothing new announced on the first party front that has me going "I am 100% there on Day 1", and I don't think my hopes for this Showcase were too wild: something on Factions (which despite being told to expect news in 2023 is still, somehow, tragically, MIA?), something from Asobi (c'mon, I just want a new Astro game and it's already been a minute since Playroom), and maybe something from Bluepoint (who have never gone 3 years without releasing a game and yet here we are just 6 months from that happening). It sucks seeing single player PlayStation left hanging, but it sucks even more because of how many CGI trailers were shown, and even more so because it feels like PlayStation are making missteps in tossing out their focus on single player, which is what got the PS5 in such a good position from launch because of the strength of the PS4's catalogue. I won't lie, being 2½ years into a generation, it does kind of feel weird to still mostly find myself playing PS4 games.
And then third party stuff, for me, was mostly being excited about stuff we already had reasons to think/knew were coming: XVI, an MGS collection, Snake Eater (which would have been a pretty epic trailer with some gameplay and without leaking, like, a year or two ago?), and Granblue Fantasy Relink.
Some indies I'll be keeping an eye on, namely Sword of the Sea, but I'm not in a rush to get to those with just how many games we're sitting on these days as it is.
Weird to get hardware in one of these but as someone who owns the Pulse headset those earbuds can't come soon enough, the Pulse is hot and it is heavy in all of the worst ways imaginable for gameplay sessions. Project Q ... eh, I've got my Steam Deck which I can stream my PS5 too, so unless this is magically way smoother than we expect it to be, I'll probably pass. Shame, I think if you could download games to the console and then sync your save between the console and handheld that it could have been awesome.
Phantom Blade Zero stole the show for me, but the only things giving me pause are the lack of a release year and not knowing anything about the dev - it's giving me Black Myth: Wukong vibes, and not in a bad way (the combat looks awesome), but I can't say I'm fully confident about how - or if - that game turns out.
Weakest *Showcase* to date for me, and it hurts more because of the long break. Hopefully we get another this year - people are already throwing out September, and why not? - but for one of the rare few times PlayStation have decided to go first during the E3 (well, now Not-E3) season, I'm scratching my head to understand the logic. Nintendo seem to be waiting things out and so, what, battle between what has historically been a mediocre Xbox showing and the ad-infested Summer Game Fest for the best show of the summer? 🫠
@Julian Whiteway phantom blade was my game of the show.besides mgs & of course Spider-Man 2.lets not forget summer games fest. Sony will have a presence.especially with it having, show floor demos
They are so obsessed with their 1st party developers making 3rd person action adventure games instead of "diverse" exclusives; they have forgotten what made Playstation "unique".
Xbox showcases have been GREAT for the last two years your tripping..
Touch grass loser
@@paulsmith9192 Do you really think Sony skipped stuff in their most anticipated show case for years and gave it to Jeff? If they give anything to Jeff it will be something small. Sony Nintendo, Microsoft do not give a shit about Jeff. Easy Allies and other game journalists are hyping him because they are best friend with him. Very rarely he gets stuff from them.
Not bad, but the showcase could have been better. You guys were cool though.
Not a bad showcase but def not great. The main issue was a lack of gameplay in a lot of trailers. CGI teasers just don’t cut it. Gets you hyped but you soon realise you know nothing about that game. Some great games on this on but overall underwhelming.
Really disappointing Showcase for me. Go watch E3 2016 to see what a 3rd year into the gen conference should look like. This was a Showcase after almost 2 years and it only showed ONE First party single player game, the rest of first party were CGI trailers for GaaS games, the total opposite of what most people expect from PS games.
3rd party stuff was good but i expect first party games from a main Showcase.
Awseomesauce 🤩
This showcase has so much sauce. It was splooging everywhere
I don't think I have ever been more wrong in setting up my expectations for a showcase than this time. I expected much, much more, especially from first party. For once I do blame Sony for that. After such a long wait, how can they not realise this would end up disappointing a lot of their fans...? I'm so bummed out, any hype I had for summer game fest is gone.
Hey, Sony is doing their best.
Because you raised your expectations and got dissapontment, you making Sony sad and feel bad. Shame on you.
Next time you get exited and ready to come when you need to. We all need to. Cause if we don’t , Sony will be upset
@@CresentSoulSpelling is hard huh?
@@Echo__plex yeab 😢. I’m still learning
Highlights for me
1. Phantom Blade looks insane. Lets hope it plays similar to what was shown.
2. MGS 3. Lets go!
3. Im already nominating Spiderman 2 for hall of greats. If they put as much care and effort into this as they did 2018 and Miles Morales, i fully expect it to be insane.
Lowlights
1. Stop with the fully CGI reveals with ZERO gameplay
2. Concord. The fuck? Logo and then peace out?
You forgot the best highlight: Isla losing her mind as three of her favorite games ever either got a sequel or a remake.
@@r.f.switch5847 that was so pleasing to watch. I am so glad that i share interests with her.
The only thing about spider man is that air tunnels for the wing suit. Feels like a cheat instead of a clever way of using building to give you more speed.
Yeah agreed. It just felt like another way to keep set pieces on rails
1:08:27
In Dreams, 1999, starring Annette Bening and Robert Downey Jr. Good flick.
I wonder how many games Geoff got a hold of if this is how “barren” the showcase was. I just hope the Xbox thing has anything considering how down in the mud they are recently.
How was this barren? It was over an hour of non-stop games, many of which are massive previously unannounced titles. New IPS, remakes, collections, cool looking indie titles, sequels to massive franchises, etc.
@@Badalight Not according to most of these comments lol.
@@RatAvenue to be fair, most comments in social media are not representative of the silent majority and reality
@@Badalight nah.
@@Badalightnon-stop cgi. Games ppl knew about. 600 days and that’s all they showed from Sony first party?
Geezuz why was this so long. Do they not respect peoples time?!
Dragon Dogma 2 all the way!
Some of the complaints baffle me.
"Too many indies" indie games are why big games are made. All big games used to be indies. And in my opinion indies are better games most of the big games.
"It was all cgi trailers" actually there were 23 trailers with gameplay in them.
"Well they didnt show (insert game guess here): well thats on you. You hyped yourself up with your own theories and high expectations.
If you dont like these games cause they arent your type of game, thats more than ok but to use any of the complaints i showed above to say why its a bad showcase is to me slightly disrespectful to all the developers who are putting their heart and soul into these games.
Thank you. The gaming community seems to be very entitled to have everything pandered to them. All the games that were showcased looked interesting or fun and it is cool to see the wide variety of things being made for different audiences. I quite loved the conference.
For me what disappointed me is that they have 19 studios and only 4 of those showed anything, and of those 4 only one had gameplay
I thought the showcase was great I just don’t think it was a good PlayStation one
The factt that tower of chinese fantasy has the most views in this video shows Easy Allies viewers are a bunch of weebs

I guess it was an overall good show, objectively. But for me, personally, it lacked games I want. Live service games can shove it. I am in the majoroty of the sony fan base (I think) in wanting single player narrative driven games. With forgettable no-personality-nonsense like the haven game, they will alienate their customer base. Perhaps they will find new ones (and I hope they do, otherwise their single player offering would suffer even more), but I am lost with these games. Used to be that sony catered very precisely to my tastes. Regrettably that is not the case anymore.
Point is I should have been so excited at the end of this. Like absolutely dripping. But instead it’s just flopping about
@@CresentSoul lol, very colorfull description. I feel the same though
Solid Showcase. 7/10 Was fun watching with the Allies.
Disappointed not to see Factions, Stellar Blade, Death Stranding 2, and Wolverine. Also, 3 PS games were CGI which is also annoying. Spider-Man 2 looked great.
I think Naughty Dog is seriously dropping the ball.
We are what? 3 full years from the last of us 2 being released and it seems we're still not even close to factions being released?
Just cancel it at this point.
@@AgentAika001 games tend to take at least 3 years to make, sometimes more. We’re you born yesterday?
This PlayStation Showcase was a solid 2.5 / 5. Not bad but could have been much better.
Yeah...
C minus showcase.
It's not even a case of too much hype with this one. This was a Showcase in name only. More like a drawn out state of play with some sweet Spiderman 2 gameplay at the end. Marathon will be awesome I'm sure but the cool gam,e announcements only got short teasers. I could see Summer games fest being better which would have been crazy to think last week.
If that was good or a success. People have some low expectations 😂
I am not sure if I am getting older but I remember how exciting showcases for 2007 2008 2010 were and then 2015 to 2017. Where are the big new titles? So many indie looking games. Alan wake looks great but basically all over the shoulder horror games look similar now. Nothing new looking. Even spider man looks similar to last game .
Sony blew their load at the end of last gen, and at the start of this one. From their perspective its a good strategy. Lots of games front loaded at the start of a gen, to drive adoption, then lots at the end to capitalise on the maximum install base for big sales numbers.
But leaves things pretty quiet mid gen. Same thing happened for PS4.
All those CGI trailers from their first party are a sure sign that those games are early in development (those CGI teasers are usually for hiring new staff rather than for the fans), and if that's what they had ready to show, you've got to imagine their other stuff is even further away 😕
There is nothing wrong with indie games. Also, most of the big titles have already been released.
@@alexlyster3459 That is a deeper analysis than I was expecting. Thanks for the insight.
