If you watch the trailer again and follow along with the text, it looks like that's were it is going - playing as Nomads going against Gaia and her forces. I could be wrong though. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I'm definitely interested in this game though.

Ok, here we go, Ubi

boo, new hosts, and no Aisha Tyler. Boo!

Bunch of logos.... MORE For Honour?

Oh No.... it's the panda again. Does this mean we're startign with Just Dance and no awkward bits in the middle?

They aren't singing "Havana" at least

If the panda maskot is actually the CEO, that's an insta win for Ubi

[Mentalist]

Oh, they are starting with Just Dance. that's a smart move, guess it means they want a high-paced show throughout, so all the "casual" stuff goes first.

Giant Bomb really liked that Dance introduction.

Was that woman Jade the protagonist from the first Beyond Good and Evil? Edit: it was.

Wait. It's a prequel?

Wow they're showing gameplay? They are way ahead of what expected. I'd have assumed they'd wait a year or two before showing anything significant.

[Malankazooie]

What percentage of those submissions do you think will be drawings of dicks?

also Joseph Gordon-Levitt!

I would like to add another buzzword that will be popular at E3 this year (along with Battle Royale): eSports.

[Aptorian]

Excited for a new trials game but I hope they scrap that style system from the last game. It ruined my fun.

Ah it's a 2019 game. I want to play it now!

Never played any of the Trials games (always planned to get around to it, but too little time, too many games syndrome). Trials Rising looks like a boat load of arcadey fun.

[Aptorian]

It is. It's sort of like a racing puzzle game.

It's great fun trying to beat your friends high scores.

Division 2 for March. I figure it's going to be a busy spring once again.

[Malankazooie]

I don't know about you guys, but I'm super excited for Skull & Bones. A pirate game based on the ship fighting from Assassin's Creed IV? I'll take it every day of the week and twice on Sundays.

[Aptorian]

Hmm. Watching this skull and bones content reminds me that I really did love the sailing and naval combat in AC4. However I still feel it's a massive flaw they don't allow island exploration, fort invasions, etc.

[Aptorian]

I didn't care about Starlink until Star Fox showed up. I love this "friendship" between Ubisoft and Nintendo.

[Malankazooie]

I never played the first For Honor. Is it any fun?

Another on of those games that got past me. Probably didn't quite get the reviews I demand from games in order to buy them.

[Malankazooie]

Wow, Assassin's Creed Odyssey deviating from reality and introducing a beast from mythology?

[EDIT] 1 1/2 hr. long conference. Is that the longest one so far? Or was EA and Microsoft longer?

Odyssey does look pretty. I wonder how long it will take for the dumb AI to burn me out though?

Was thinking the same thing. I do appreciate the addition of conversation options though.

I'll play it of course but I am not exactly chomping at the bit.

They had similar instances in Origins. You were fighting a giant snake at one point.

[Malankazooie]

Oh yeah, forgot about that. Fighting the Minotaur in Odyssey will be cool.
