Xbox Games Showcase & Starfield Direct - Info & Reaction Thread

Really hoping for Fable! Soft spot for that series and it's been too long.

Soiree, 11 months ago

I do too!

Nearly all the chat was negative on the XBOX FanFest stream when Overwatch 2 came up. Lowest point of the event so far.

I can't imagine reading the chat of any of these events, they always seem to be extremely toxic

BigVault, 11 months ago

It's been mostly positive TBH, might be because the fanfest stream is normally something you have to sign up to.
Had it been Twitch or YouTube chat, I'm sure it would be all toilet worthy.

Ooo, Payday 3 is nice, and on Gamepass

The Persona 3 remake and Persona 5 Tactics game appear to have been leaked, so I figure we're about to see an official announcement

HeavyIguana, 11 months ago

As a PC player my wishlist is:

Forza Motorsport leaning a little further towards sim, as opposed to arcade

Cyberpunk Phantom Liberty / Patch 1.7

Avowed as Pentiment's narrative designer is working on it

Codemasters showing off their new WRC game

Starfield looking in good shape so it doesn't need mods to fix.

Fallout 4 update actually offering something more than mods have already given us i.e. some story content

Also a further TES6 tease (Todd: "The new engine just works") would be cool

TranquilMarmot, 11 months ago

Are there any planned Fallout 4 updates? There are already the two "big" story DLCs (Far Harbor, Nuka-world) and the game came out 8 years ago.

Cavalarrr, 11 months ago

Yeah, if there's anything Fallout related I can only imagine it would be a brief mention of the next 76 season or something, I can't see them announcing Fallout 5 any time soon, as much as that disappoints me.

Looking forward to more info on Starfield, I'm really hoping it's good, but I'm not going to hold my breath.

TES6. 6... 5 years since teaser. Todd's probably gonna make us wait another year.

HungoverRabbit, 11 months ago

Looking forward to seeing more Starfield and how many bugs they manage to hide

edtwoshoes, 11 months ago

That was a really impressive showcase. I'm glad the bugs will be left for content creators/players to discover

Rumors have it that Avowed will show up in the Xbox conference. I'm really excited to finally see some gameplay for it after a looong time of radio silence.

ampersandrew, 11 months ago

Where are those rumors coming from? When it was announced, it seemed to be of the era where games are announced ludicrously early so that they can attract talent to work on it in the first place.

According to https://www.gamereactor.eu/report-avowed-fable-and-persona-3-remake-to-be-in-the-xbox-games-showcase-1273943/ , the author confirmed with 4 sources that Avowed and Fable will make an appearance this event.

ampersandrew, 11 months ago

Gotcha. I figured that game would be in the oven for a long while more.

simple, 11 months ago

Well it's still not gonna release any time soon, but at least we'll see how development is going.
