But all we got was a story trailer, which don't get me wrong it was cool, but didn't exactly reveal anything interesting I guess.

    Well,

    We already have a good idea that the Necromancer is the big thing they are adding to the game for the year. That is how they did it the previous two years, and the Chapter is set up for that sort of thing, here the quarterly DLC is not.

    All that is left for the year is the story, dungeons, and zones. This, we know.
    Matt Firor has already stated no ESO for the Switch, game is too big for the console.

    Isn't that why they have Orion?

    I'm disappointed they didn't have any about TES6

    Oh but they did. Right at the very beginning, just a couple minutes in:

    "...we know you've all been waiting to hear about... working on Elder Scrolls 6..."

    And that was all there was. After telling us last year that they were indeed going to MAKE TES6, then teasing us again today with "we're working on it" THEY SAID NOTHING ELSE.

    He literally mentioned TES6 right at the beginning to both keep the audience in the room & keep the folks on Twitch tuned in as well. That's playing VERY dirty, if you ask me.

    I can't play Doom or Wolfenstein, due to the engine that runs them. I have this weird condition where certain first person engines break my brain. My eyes say, "Oh hey, we're moving!" and my ears say, "Uh no, you idiots, we are sitting still right here in this chair". The ensuing argument sends me rushing to the toilet to toss my cookies =/ Dramamine helps if I get mild nausea (I can play Destiny2, for example) but I'm not sure it would work for either of those games. Wasn't really interested in a game adaptation of a kiddie cartoon either & I don't stream so Orion is useless to me as well. The Ghost game seemed interesting & my apologies to the creators but RAGE seems like a bad Borderlands knockoff - I'd rather play Borderlands.

    As an Elder Scrolls player, I mostly wanted to hear about TES. I was disappointed because I feel as if they just wanted to get it out of the way so they could present their "bigger and better" things, like porting more TES to mobile, putting out more mobile games & then the whole "Battle Royale" thing. I'm sure that the FallOut players felt rather the same way - FO76 got even less screen time than TES!

    Honestly sometimes I wonder why ZOS even shows up to E3. Its always 5 minutes of tooting their own horn, "look how many fluff accounts we are misrepresenting!", with very meager announcements about the next dungeon pack (WOOOOOOO! not.). Maybe if ZOS was dropping Chapters in the later half of the year E3 would be a great place to announce new large DLCs. But since its always a week or so after the Chapters launch. Its just nothing special.

    Not really. The Switch isnt a streaming platform in the least bit. Orion is for things like Stadia, XCloud, or mobile gaming.

    That Elsweyr video actually made me feel LESS interested in going to Elsweyr. Lame dragon 1-shot by a ballista in a very slowly-paced video showing a khajiit doing things you'd never get to do in the game (the latter I can accept since you'd cramp a lot of style in the video). But I felt direction was weak and the whole city being on fire didn't deliver on it's promise of a really dangerous critter.
    We're in an age where if you give people enough time to properly read a short sentence it's already on screen too long. Faster and more exciting pacing please.

    What really caught my attention was that Japanese game! Good teaser video.

    Nothing about Star-whatever, either, which likely means that TES6 is still more than 2 years out.

    It is the worst time of year for ZOS to be talking about the game. ZOS has nothing big in the 2nd half of the year to talk about. Just a couple DLC. It is too soon to talk about the next Chapter, since they just released one.

    So, this year they talked about Game 2, which surprised me because what I have been calling "Game 2" is actually "Game 3".

    They said they'll reveal more about the next 2 updates during Quakecon, which is July 25th.

    If Dungeon DLC to launch in August then PTS will be 1 month ahead in July.

    It's E3, it has been a disappointment (E3) since 1998 when they choose to close it from the public and let it be studios, friends & family invite / contest winners only.

    Plus I only watched it for freebies and Cyberpunk 2077 short that was earlier.

    But, no, I'm not disappointed at all. I loved what they showed and announced. They will reveal more at QuakeCon in no time.

    I really wouldn't trust anything Matt says.

    I liked ESO and Deathloop. But overall I'm not liking the general direction or feeling I'm getting from Bethesda... Paid audience, generic quotes a la "our game is the best thing ever", and pushing mobile games in E3. Starting too feel souless and EAish. I dont have much hope for TES6 or Starfield anymore, would love to be wrong though.

    At least Larian is making BG3 yay.

    Pretty cinematic but it really left you wondering why bother spending the time to fetch Matt up there if your not going to have him say anything.

    I also felt trolled about TES6. Yea, you guys have mentioned it for years but I'm starting to wonder if mentioning it is some kind of inside joke way to troll us and not actually an indication that anything is in development. With ESO, Fallout76, and the space MMO you keep talking about I'm starting to think all we are going to get is MMO's now. ESO has worked out OK but the Fallout76 presentation pretty much admitted it is a trash can fire and that are adding NPC's because their whole concept was never a particularly good idea and even worse in execution.
    Edited by f047ys3v3n on June 10, 2019 5:33AM
    I am currently worried for the future of ESO. Population seems like it is in free fall and the cancellation of the North America in-person gathering feels very much like pulling the plug. Kudos on fixing the in-game economy though. Clearly whatever gold shenanigans were happening the last couple years are fixed.

    I'm glad you mentioned that because I was thinking the same and thought I'd misinterpreted what he said. I sat through things I wasn't interested in - battle royale games, shoot-em-up games, card games (?), mobile games and... whatever the hell Commander Keen was supposed to be (my eyes glazed over) - in the hopes of hard TES6 info. If there was any I must have blinked and missed it.
