Maybe I'm weird but I'm not seeing that much Minecraft in Boundless (it came up again on the GT stream) to me outside of yes parts of some of the environment looking blocky but plenty of others of the sample environments not looking blocky.
Regardless, I thought it looked good.

They can be important for the platform but I don't care for them... so yeah, mediocre conference because besides Detroid and DC:Bikes I have no interest on the rest.
Like I said opinions. You found it great? I'm happy for you.

PGS was never a big event so it's a pretty good Sony conference
Solid conference, glad to see there giving VR a big push finally. Looking forward to Uncharted 4 multi impressions along with some new info on some of the smaller games like Shadow of the Beast. I think people expected way too much from this conference, what they showed was fine.

It started out OK but turned awful during the last hour. The GT Sport (which I'm still not even what the hell exactly it is? Is it a service? A game? They kept talking about the history/partnership thing for so long my interest zoned out, someone fill me in please) went on for way too damn long. Same case with the Detroit demo went on, which I don't think wouldn't had been so bad if the entire presentation didn't come off as condescending. The general presentation I felt was puffing up its interpretation on the "android discovering the human world" story as unique much more than it actually looks to be (Ex Machima was one of the first things that quickly came to mind when they started talking about the story).
The Uncharted 4 multiplayer trailer and the demos for Dreams and Horizon: First Dawn demos were easily the highlight of the conference for me, however. Really am intrigued with how Dreams in particular will turn out now.
Tekken 7 supporting PS VR...great, but I don't really know how on earth that's going to work really.
No return of Crash, 2/10, Sony betrayed us

From third parties add to that:
FF VII Remake update
Kojima no compete clause ends in december, so...
So disgraceful that PS2 games rated for PS4 leaked in Europe a month ago and we did not get an announcement. I love PS4, but this needed to be a feature at launch. It seems Sony is trying to cater to the 360 crowd that jumped ship, not the Sony fans who were there in the past and still wants to experience the older games. For the players, but not the fans.
People have different taste than you do, it's no reason to insult them.
I don't like Gravity Rush
Ratchet was just a trailer thrown out there and not a focus.
Horizon was almost the exact same thing they showed at E3.
Dreams is very peculiar. A lot of people don't understand what it is.
Not everyone likes racing sims (myself included).
NMS has been shown off so much that it doesn't excite me in conferences anymore.
It was Dhalsim, and they opened that segment by talking about something that helped define the Playstation coming back.
Tekken doesn't interest me.
None of the VR stuff they showed interested me.
Only WiLD and Detroit got me excited.
I can totally see how someone would think this conference was terrible and it certainly doesn't make them a "whiny bitch"

The userbase is bad and they're whiny little bitches... because they have different gaming tastes than you?
LMAO
Nailed what? Legend of Dragoon 2, Socom, Crash blablah are never gonna happen. Stop using drugs and get real.
Damn good show. Nice for us here in europe. Detroit and WiLD looked awesome.

Pacing was all-over the place (one minute we have the Japanese-style slow reveals with SF/Tekken), and then we have VR, and then we have Kaz's 'only for motorsports fans' reveal. It was definitely awkward.
But content-wise, it's pretty much on-par, if not better than previous Gamescoms :
Announcements (first-party):
- Matterfall
- Gran Turismo Sport
- Driveclub Bikes
- Detroit : Become Human
4 games. Seems about right.

Awesome show for PlayStation VR.
Gran Turismo. Huge killer app for the platform.
Tekken 7. Lifesized characters fighting in front of you. Crazy.
Battlezone looking good.
Until Dawn: Rush of Blood was a nice surprise.
Over 200+ devs working on games for PSVR.
Sony just bagged the early Virtual Reality gaming market.

Seriously what were people expecting?
I thought it was a good conference with the games that they showed. Nice diversity with the line up. Personally really enjoyed seeing more of Horizon, Dreams, SFV, Tekken 7, and Gravity Rush 2. First time seeing Wild and loving it (that bear riding). VR was interesting especially Crytek's Robinson: The Journey (dinosaurs!), and I will wait to hear and see more of Detroit (exploring the human consciousness always is an exciting topic).

Basically this. They had the games to make it an upbeat, powerful conference, but they kind of just plopped them out and moved from game to game with some talk in between, there wasn't the kind of momentum that SCEA and SCEJ are now doing.

I missed this. Is it available somewhere?

In retrospect I think you're right, probably just the pacing of the conference and lack of things I wanted. U4 multiplayer trailer was a bit... something.

That was the least suprising thing, even a Crash announcement is more likely at this point.
Which is not gonna happen either.
Dammit Gran Turismo Sport? I missed a trailer?
Was there a trailer? I should wait til these things are over, before I succumb to hunger next time.
Not yet

Honestly, it's very easy to be marred by perception of poorness, simply by bad pacing and poor presentation.
It's hard to deny that a lot of today's presentation approach is very hit-or-miss, except for Wild.

Which really only helps the VR market as a whole. Oculus and Vive can only benefit from this.
It's one thing to dislike how the material was presented its another to be let down by the content. I can understand why the presentation didn't sit well with some, the pacing was bad and the crowd was the worst I've seen But the content they announced was pretty good. Could we have used more game play? Sure.

I'm about 35 minutes in the conference right now, I just want to ask, should I be expecting some Rime anytime soon or have they completely forgotten the game even exist? Also, any surprising 2015 game releases? Or is it another "everything was 2016".

Conference was a little disappointing but more for the flat talky bits rather than the games. On the games
Driveclub Bikes out today is cool, would have had a lot more impact if it hadn't leaked.
Horizon looks fucking mint.
Dreams is really interesting (but not sure if it's fun).
New Housemarque game!!!
New GT game!
GR2 looks gorgeous.
QD game, which was expected but looked pretty nice.
Yeah in terms of games it was decent for me.
Worst part was the lengthy delay to No Man's Sky. Though at least it gives us another chance to laugh at VG247 (who said they heard it would be out this week). LOL.
