Just a few things before I must go to sleep because I need to get up VERY early in order to get to the TDE convention in time (shit train connections this weekend !) :
EA's Unravel is a thing shrouded in mysteries which need to become unraveled soon.
I mean, when I asked the EA employee for which platforms this will be made, and when it might be published, she said that she weren't allowed to say that. And when I asked her when she would be allowed to say that - in which months or weeks or so - she said to me that shze wasn't allowed to say
anything about the game - and despite 10 or 20 peaople playing the game next to us !
Unravel - a game that is shrouded in mysteries which need to be unraveled.
It is still by FAR the most exciting new game for me - personally. I give a shit on your views on that.
I was able to attain a tiny HOMM VII presentation + Q&A. The microphone was too loud so I had to use an earplug. Seriously, my ear ached.
So, all I could understand during the uestions was that HOMM VII is meant to be an "best of all HOMM games". They used things from all games, I think, as far as I understood them.
I don't remember anymore whether it follows the "Reboot" storyline & setting or not, but I suspect that it does.
2 ideas brought forward during that discussion :
- "Shared unites" - units that both parties in a battle can use
- a turn-based game like HOMM with Raving Rabbits (my absolutely crazy idea !
) ("Your idea isn't that crazy as you might think !")
A few games I found noteworthy from the Indie part of the Games Com :
- Kingdom ( the card says rawfury.com/games/kingdom )
- The Curious Expedition ( the card says
www.curious-expedition.com )
- Action Henk - I don'Ät really know whatr's a Henk (it's probably his second name) and what's it about - but it surely looked crazy ! ( card says r.gamesessions.com/henktrial )
- Smite - Battle Of The Goods (card says smitegame.com )
- Insane Goblins
- Hero-Defense - Haunted Island (sadly not for the PC !) (card says hero-defense.com , studio's name is "Happy Thursday")
- The Feud - Wild West Tacticxs (seems to be turn-based ! yey !
( card says
www.feudgame.com )
- Shiftlings
- Cosmonautica
- Dieselstörmers (by the team that made the Giana Sisters)
- Horizon - Zero Dawn (WHY IS THIS GAME NOT COMING TO THE PC ???)

Apart from that I don't remember much anymore, apartt from that VR Rabbits game, maybe, that giant Pip Boy und the anbnounced WarCraft movie. And Lego Dimensions.
