Summer Games Fest - Chat Thread

As it was pointed out earlier, with John in LA it might be worth keeping a closer eye on SGF. Though he could just be there for the Xbox show. 
(Thread will be up soon!)

don’t know the specific ranking but LAX is one of my top three least favourite airports

been so long since I travelled for work I almost forgot about the nightly routine I like to call ‘the photographing of the receipts’

I'm planning to sacrifice a night of sleeping for this. This better be good.

I'm pretty certain at this point we're used to this.

It's getting stormy over here, so I dunno if I'll be able to watch.

If possible, however, I'm watching it for the Twitch drop. Always in the mood for a free Warframe slot.

And then I might be exposed to an interesting new game.

I'd be happy to be wrong about by feeling, if the game is shown at both shows.

The thing that makes me skeptical is that it seems weird to show two different trailers at two different shows in the span of a couple days, without either focusing on the gameplay. But maybe the want to hit hard the 'start' of the marketing campaign.

I have been been hearing the odd hint that the game may drop sooner than many of us were expecting (before Nov).

I keep meaning to dig up and consolidate those rumors, but I just haven't had time.

From people like Shinobi - Apparently, the timing will not conflict with AC Shadows or Avowed. Also there was... a hint of urgency when one player asked if they had time to play the DA series before DAV dropped. From that, we know it's more than 6 weeks away. 

There were also a couple of other earlier comments that implied a sooner-than-we-think release date.

We'll see!

Our we doing a watchalong livestream?

The hype train has been running for a decade and it still has no brakes!

Yeah, we generally have watchalong chat threads for the big events like this.

Thinks it’s all but official there’s nothing DA-related today.

I’m just watching to see new games or get updates on ones.

Maybe we get today a small teaser but i doubt it. The small teaser aka reminder thing watch the whole demo Tuesday sounds more like Xbox show to me.

Autumn Witch mentioned she saw IGN pushing today's event as well.
