Of the rumored games for TGA, which absence disappointed you the most?
- Thread starter Cosmic Voyager
- Start date
I voted for Rocksteady. But let me express my feelings here over TGA.
Sure there was a lot of Nintendo stuff and DLC (No More Heroes was kind of cool). But the lack of proper Nintendo properties were king of lame.
We got Reggie on stage this year and every year, they had something for us. Specially Reggie.
This year Doug Bowser as head of Nintendo of America did nothing except by accepting the Smash award. And felt pretty lame to accept an award from another team and a game released under the direction of another director SHARING THE SAME STAGE without expressing his name and his legacy.
In 2019 Nintendo did manage to surpass the expectations in terms of games with Luigi's Mansion 3, Pokemon breaking records again, Winning black Friday. But what's next?
Under the administration Bowser, Nintendo of America seems like a silent company. On the biggest event outside of it's on company (I still think E3 is bigger, but as far as I'm concerned, each company treats like it's own event) nothing came out of their new leader.
And there's tons of unanswered questions around the Nintendo properties. Where's Bayonetta 3? Are we going to see Metroid 4 in 2020 in some form? It is time for another Mario Kart? What about the future of dual Pokemon series? Let's Go Gold Silver is the expected at this point or let's go was just one thing?
I miss Reggie. He was vague in some points... but we got at least, "I can't say anything at this moment". Silence is unacceptable from my point of view.

I didn't even know this was a rumored thing ..
anyway, Rocksteady and Batman for me.
I can't believe Rocksteady weren't there. Although they are probably more worried about out shitshow of am election and the fallout for international developers working there.
I imagine Rocksteady has a long-long pile of scrapped prototypes and cancelled projects at this point.
I would imagine so. Surely we would have to see something soon otherwise WB might have to close the studio.
This was the curious one.
I had my fingers crossed for a Smash reveal, Bayonetta 3, or an a teaser for Metroid Prime 4.
Bravely Default 2 was nice, but every time I saw a commercial with the Switch logo I got my hopes up for more.
Was gutted to not see Half-Life Alyx at the show, even though it was a confirmed and not rumored title to appear. Which, y'know, actually makes it even worse.
More interested in a new Batman game and Rocksteady's project than anything else on the list, but I didn't expect them to be there. I had talked myself into the idea that BotW 2 would be on the show, so I was surprised not to hear anything about that.
No Bayonetta 3 and Metroid Prime trilogy :(
Also, there was leaked that RE2: Director's Cut was supposed to be announced as well. It didn't happen.

I thought the show was pretty bad for a litany of reasons, but I try not to be let down when things that were never promised don't happen.
That said, history taught us to expect something more from Nintendo as a publisher at the Game Awards, and this year left a pretty big void in that department. I was fiending for that Switch logo, man. Smash, Bayonetta, Metroid, Zelda, some sort of bone outside of the underwhelming (and poorly framed by Geoff) Bravely Default II teaser would've helped me feel like I didn't waste four hours of life. At least a little bit.

Batman is hilarious at this point, it doesn't disappoint me anymore.
Marvel is swimming in money with Spider-Man and it's soon to release Avengers while Warner is just watching how the turtle gets away.

Well they revealed DLCs for Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 (and Bravely Default II is published by them in the West) but yeah...
Batman of course.
My reaction this morning when not seeing any news:
Lmao out of context this gif is hilarious
Definitely Half-Life: Alyx, though that wasn't a rumor. After Valve announced they weren't showing it, I just bailed on watching The Game Awards.
Yeah, was this a thing? I've never heard this and i wouldn't believe it if I did.

Recently there was a rumor that Konami was planning on doing something with the Silent Hill IP again.
Then there was a rumor going around that after the success of Death Stranding, Konami reached back out to Kojima to lend him the Silent Hill license again. The terms would be that Kojima gets a blank cheque, except Konami would pick who plays the protagonist, and it would be someone other than Norman Reedus.
Apparently one of Kojima's right-hand guys recently left KojiPro, which people found strange at the time. People are speculating that it's because he refuses to work with Konami again, whereas Kojima is willing to bury the hatchet.
Take all of this with a massive grain of salt of course, but there were several rumors floating around that all seemed to lend credence to each other, and some people were definitely thinking a TGA tease was possible

Bayo 3. Makes me wonder if the project had a large setback/change when the original director left.
Batman. What was the point of teasing the goddamn game if you're not even going to announce it for another 7 months?
