Xbox Showcase 6/11/23 - Nancyfly Thoughts

As someone trying to get an xbox in the near future, this was a really great showcase. Maybe because the Sony and SGF ones were incredibly disappointing (still had some good games) but this was a great watch for the most part as it had a lot of surprises.

Not on this list is um: Xbox Series S 1tb version. Pretty cool but coming out way after my birthday so not really something Imma bother with lol

God damn this game looks so beautiful. Ive maintained for a long time that a P3 remake could very well become my favorite Persona game. But learning they aren't doing Portable or FES content has taken so much wind out of my hype. I'm so conflicted man. Assuming the FES content is only The Answer I can live with that but if they don't do stuff like the Aigis social link or Elizabeth hangouts I will not be buying this, probably just playing it on gamepass instead. What a wasted opportunity. Reminding me a lot of the BDSP pokemon games. Feels pointless and like a kick straight to the ovaries. I'm sure itll still be good but im pretty gutted about this game and will be for a long time. Ugh
my favorite game series x my favorite type of gameplay is a hell yes. Im sure it wont have SLink stuff so not yet the perfect Nancyfly game but probably as close as it gets. Unfortunately the art style isnt really something I'm into but that wont stop me from playing it and having a banger time. Hopefully the last p5 spinoff though
Star Wars Jedi Survivor is amazing. And now star wars game with GIRL?. Hell yeah. I'm in baby letsgo
i have no idea if id like this but it looks genuinely insane, hope the best for it.
Fun trailer. Not really sure what the game is like but still wanna try it
Game looks gorgeous. But hard to judge when it doesnt show what the game actually plays like
Nothing to say about this. not for me at all
Gross
seems cool, im sure itll be good. Hasn't really gripped me though.
I um, cool unexpected crossover but never played Monkey Island and don't really want to so not for me.
I still wanna try the newest one, not sure if im ready for this lol
game is visually stunning but wheres the gameplay lol. Im still very excited and simultaneously pissed that xbox has made a sequel exclusive when the first was on PS but whatever ;-;
bizarre trailer lmao, thought it was a spinoff. curious where this goes but still gotta beat 7
I dont really know what this is supposed to be lol
i only like arcade racing games so this is an easy skip. At least its one less game to want to buy this year
completely tuned out for the section of this and Fallout 76
wait your turn bruh! you got your own direct right after this ungrateful mf

i didnt stick around for the direct but I heard the game sounds awesome and I hope it keeps is promising. All I need to know is if i can have gay sex
getting a bit tired of these vibey indie games but Im sure itll be nice. will give it a shot perhaps
was very curious on this until I heard The Chinese Room made it. unwishlisted immediately
Im not sure what happened but I did not see this, don't know what it is lol
Yeah idk, I don't really like playing DLC. Heard its bringing some changes to the base game though, so if they make it actually playable I wouldnt mind trying
These games are too much for me but im sure this made a lot of people really happy.
artstyle is great. Might wanna try but depends how multiplayer focused it ends up being
Dude this game looks so sick. perfectly up my alley

Same thoughts on P3. Looks great but hard to be too excited at this point. Big fumble

absolutely insane Atlus saw an opportunity to correct the "non-definitive" cloud hanging over P3's head for almost 20 years and decided "let's just release a third option which solves exactly nothing"

i shouldn't be surprised at this point but there's no sensible reaction other than bafflement

@Ditdzy the biggest fumble :(
@Rola You're right, its just completely baffling. I don't know why they thought people wanted this. The fact there is gonna be yet another version for people to argue about which is the best version is driving me insane. Idk if ill ever get over how dumb and silly this is

@Nancyfly My guess is that (whether they PLANNED to from the start or will walk it back after hearing the inevitable backlash) they'll shove it all in as DLC down the road. But knowing Atlus' recent track record, especially with Soul Hackers 2... you can bet your ass it'll be 20 for the Answer and another 5-10 each for FeMC and FES' The Journey extra content lmfao

Star Wars: Outlaws looked interesting but it was just a cinematic. So no clue If The actual gameplay will be also interesting and then I noticed that Ubisoft is developing it and I was like " Nope, I've climbed enough lookout-towers."

@SkeletonGrimm67 i love far cry so the whole "ubisoft game" thing doesn't matter to me much.
@Rola I don't really recall Atlus doing big DLC like that before but honestly its at the point where if I have to pay extra for it I will. I like persona too much, which makes this even more upsetting

@Nancyfly I hope I'm wrong but their recent megaten output has set a pretty dangerous precedent tbh. The dancing games launched with a $25 dlc package day one--not to mention locked the P4D remaster behind a bundle and could not ever be purchased on its own even now, years later. More recently was Soul Hackers 2, which launched with a FOURTY dollar package for day one DLC, and even that was just cosmetics, a demons, and a few quests. I'd like the give em the benefit of the doubt they'll treat a beloved game like P3 with the respect it deserves, but it's getting increasingly more difficult to defend this shit.

that said, p3 owns my ass too so it'll be much harder to ignore this time around
