What could we possibly get from E3 this year ?

Frankly I don't pay attention to E3 at all. It rarely features games I care about, and when it does, it's normally some cinimatic trailer or whatever that doesn't really show you anything. The few times they DO show you actual gameplay, there's a good chance it gets cut or removed upon release these days too!

Sorry to be a buzzkill, I thought this was in offtopic not BS discussion, so I was expecting this to be more of a 'what games are gonna be at e3' topic rather than.. you know.

Well for me.. I'm expecting kinda the same, but small announcement or a development update should, basically any Bloodstained news can get me hyped pretty easy these, but I'm not getting my hopes up or anything. I just expect to be an E3 announcement this year

well, we have 3 focused updates coming mar-may, june would be the month after, they may be working toward all the small updates coming together for a big june update and post it during e3 for a big splash to all the people who havent been paying near as much attention to it as we have

possible, though word of fangamer is there is no plans for an nx port since 'nobody' knows what nx even is yet, so it would either need nintendo reaching out to iga and inti and risk spilling the beans since even the inkling of an idea that the game might see an nx port will inevitably explode into a bunch of questions about the nx that iga wont be able to answer because nda, or waiting until some time after the nx reveal to ask the question of if we would be open to an nx port (which also hinges on what kind of contract has been drawn up with armature on the wiiu port whether that portion of dev would move its focus entirely to vita or stick with both still, but dropping the wiiu port will make quite a few wiiu people that pushed for it so hard during the ks feel betrayed)

ive heard rumors that nintendos making the nx very easy to port to with things like ue4 where you just choose nx and recompile and youre done, IF that is true then an nx port in the future wouldnt be a drain on resources and would be a good move, but thats a pretty big IF

my personal opinion is i want it on wiiu because i want to see what cool things armature can do with the gamepad, and if it does come out on nx as well im going to hope i can get a backer version for that too

He's saying that because initially, it was announced that the playable beta would be ready for E3. I'm not expecting that, but because that was said, I really do think something that at least shows a playable game will be there.

edit:
This is just one source, I'm pretty sure they had said this beforehand as well.

I'd be satisfied with some new screenshots, character artwork and casting announcements for some roles. Maybe some animation demos and such. I'd not expect a playable alpha till at least TGS.

Interesting, i have never seen that interview and the information about a possible beta release at this year's E3, suddenly i am feeling anxious. However that interview is quite old, it's impossible to say if that's the current shedule. Anyway it's amazing we are already nearly 10 months since the funding . E3 will be the 1 year mark since funded who knows what to expect .

I do believe there will be something big there, it won't be that early stage in development then (not that i will mind if there's nothing, i just think there will be). I am guessing one of these options:
1. Gameplay footage.
2. Announcement and release of the beta right way or very soon.
3. Announcement of beta release date.

At E3 we will be more than halfway (~60%) to the final release date in terms of development time, considering a release on March 2017, even if we consider a 3 months release delay it will still be at 50%. Of course the first half may be focused on critical design definitions and core stuff than gameplay adjustment, still i believe that's enough to at least show a few rooms of gameplay even if it's made just for the event.

It is just my humble opinion, i am certain they will have what it's required to do so the question is if they are confident enough to actually show it, we know they don't like to show unfinished stuff even if it is 80% complete so let's relax and wait to see, what really matters is that on the end we will be able to play an amazing game.

June 14 - 16 just when Bloodstained celebrates 1 year since the funding, that's one of the motives i believe there will be something on such a special date.
