There's so much Don in this. That pretty much makes it my favorite Easy Update automatically.

It's just that, while I absolutely was looking forward to Easy Update, I don't know why they'd make us watch it now as opposed to on our own time, especially when it's 2 AM on the east coast and they know people want impressions. ?

Don being there making this so hilarious.
This I agree with. We could have watched this fun diversion any time. And they'd then have even more time for impressions if they were to need it.

Likely they're taking a break.
Jesus, we get it. You want impressions. Every time they move away from them, you complain in the thread.
They've given a lot of impressions. They don't want to do that for 100% of their E3 coverage. Freaking relax.
Just watch it tomorrow and skip through parts you don't care about. I personally was waiting for Easy Update tonight. They're also likely doing it to take a break because, you know, they need to.

Can't wait for Bloodstained, looking forward to getting it from backing it.
Edit: LOL Brad that intro to these XSEED games.
Yeah, it actually did not look that bad in footage.
LOL "it's kind of like a lewd Splatoon."

So do a lot of games, but they're actually edited well to have escalation and climax. Take the Battlefront 2 trailer as an example.
But whatever, arguing about this is just like last E3's ultra, terribad Zelda trailer. I can't even imagine why anyone could even like that one.

Ben's like "I've played two other games, but I was just doing my job!"
Mmmhm. It's okay, Ben.

Ben is getting exposed by Brad.
Brad: I liked when you asked the guy if all the Senran Kagura girls were in this.
Ben: I WAS DOING MY JOB!

Okay, they're gonna have video of bonus impressions. There we go.
They're being pretty judgmental given they're showing it
Edit: Oh Sakuna, this looked pretty cool.

They showed 2 completely separate trailers. First one was a full length, entirely CG trailer. Then they came out and talked about the game for a bit, then they showed the trailer that's mostly gameplay.
But that's exactly what the Mario Odyssey trailer is. There's nothing "random" about the gameplay clips at all.
They ended with another CG trailer. The one that showed the underwater monster teaser. So a CG trailer --> Gameplay --> CG teaser. Check the conference video around 1h 43m mark for the final CG teaser. That's the one they ended the segment with, not the gameplay footage.

My post may have been lost at the bottom of the last page, but it's insanity to me that anyone would say that Mario didn't have escalation and climax. That's easily one of the best paced trailers I've ever seen.
I also loved the Zelda trailer last year, but I can understand why some people wouldn't like it. The Mario Odyssey Trailer is ace though; it's the kind of trailer that should be used to teach editors how to make trailers.

I got the impression he liked the trailer, just wasn't a big fan of the series.

It's time for the Knack attack lol
The discussion was how the game was initially revealed. It was revealed with a CG only trailer that was a couple minutes long. I'm not disputing there was a short CG trailer after the gameplay teasing a Kraken or whatever.

Dat Knack!
That's what I thought. He kind of trashed on both pretty hard very briefly when he interjected during the rating while Huber was arguing though lol.

Not sure what your previous post was then about. I mentioned the order because it explained why I recalled there being a CG trailer at the end. You seemed to be confused as to what the original conversation was about or didn't understand the context well. Here's what I said in the post you quoted
"A very short CG trailer bit leading to gameplay and then also ended with a CG teaser about Kraken or something"
I wasn't disputing him on the order of things..I agreed. And the reveal wasn't broken into multiple days. All three segments were part of the unveiling of the game to the public for the first time. The reveal didn't end with the CG trailer...like how BGE2 did was the point.

LOL so you can berate him from close range.
About Kyle's score for the GOW trailer
I kinda understand what he means related with the final shoot (which totally screwed that score) but there are 2 problems, one from the knowledge Kyle has from Nordic mythology, the other from the trailer VO.
- The first ones goes towards the meaning implied on the last shot. That "Giant Monster" it's Jörmundgander. He's right the scale wasn't well showcase (Still it wouldn't have ben, but what mattered there was the fact that everyone thought we were going to fight him, but he said he was gonna help us. Why that's shocking? Because he is Locki's "son". Why he'd like to help an outsider?
- And related to the last part that's my problem with the VO. They highlight been an outsider like a big threat to Kratos. If you wanted to shock us on why the loyal sirvent that Jörmundgander is wants to help him, you shouldn't present him as "The serpent of the world". Those than don't know anything about this mythology won't get it.
Still that score was odd from kyle.

Seems not!
Their last day of E3 stream was seriously great.
Even at extreme tiredness, Ben, Huber, Jones, Kyle and Blood still seemed like the most jolly, humble, hardworking people.
The way they kept cracking up at each other seemed how they might act more casually, and was a delight.
Thanks for the E3, Allies!

I never said it was broken into multiple days. But the two trailers we're separated by a guy talking about the game on stage. And I think you were confused as to what the conversation was about, not me.
The original post said they should have revealed the game with gameplay instead of a CG trailer. He's not implying no gameplay was shown, just that it should have been shown first. You said they started with gameplay, THEN went to CG, then sort of rolled back but tried to make it seem like you were still right by calling it "a short CG bit." It also didn't lead into the gameplay, again it was separated by a dude coming out on stage and talking and the videos were completely separate.
It's a silly thing to get defensive over (admittedly also a silly thing for me to argue with you over, sorry to everyone else for this huge quote-filled post), you either forgot it started with a CG trailer or misunderstood his post about how the game was revealed. Not a big deal, just thought it was funny you tried to make it seem like you were both right.
More on-topic, and double-posty, Trailer Jones was fantastic last night. Jones said a lot of things I disagreed with but gave similar scores to what I would have given, and Kyle said a lot of things I agreed with but still gave GoW a way lower score than I would have. I think most of his criticisms rang true for me but it's still a trailer that made me want to play that game more, which in the end is it's job.
Anything with a score does.
On their Frame Trap podcast just before the impressions. It's not on YouTube yet, but you can find it on Twitch.

I'm convinced these dudes all have clones.
They put out amazing content so fast.
They had coverage, pre and post show for all of E3 + still put out their regular content/streams.

Agreed, so much coverage!
Glad to be getting the rest of these impressions.
