So, apparently I'm covering E3 this year. I'm as surprised as you are.
Bethesda's E3 conference followed Microsoft's on Sunday, and just as I predicted, Microsoft's blow-out of a show proved to be a tough act to follow. Apparently Bethesda's presentation this year was
an improvement over last year's, but they are only one studio; Microsoft, by comparison, as the platform holder, owns multiple first-party studios of their own, and multiple third-party developers whose games they could also add to their hype event. Realistically, Microsoft should be able to put on a more impressive press conference; it wouldn't be reasonable to demand that Bethesda equal Microsoft's presentation.
That said, though, it's equally unreasonable to assert that Bethesda somehow surpassed Microsoft to put on the "
best conference of E3 so far," just because they teased something that you were hoping they teased, on their way to talking about the ten or so projects that they felt like showing off this year. Of those, only
Elder Scrolls Legends,
Elder Scrolls Blades,
Fallout 76, and
Prey: Mooncrash will be releasing this year.
Rage 2,
Wolfenstein: Young Blood, and
DOOM: Eternal are due sometime next year, while
Starfield and
Elder Scrolls IV are essentially nothing but logos at this point.
Oh, and VR. Bethesda are still all-in on VR, with
Prey being added to their VR lineup, and a
Wolfenstein VR hacking/puzzle game coming... sometime.
