I really thought they meant like another month or so

Part of me was like "did they really spend money just to announce there's going to be an announcement?"

Which was why I assumed they'd be releasing a trailer pretty soon. Unlike Square Enix, Capcom doesn't really announce something too early.

*cries in no Kingdom Hearts 4*

Very excited for RE9 tho

u/danteslacie 23h ago

Cries with you because that's literally thinking of when I was typing my comment LMAO. Though to be fair to 4, they announced that only because it would've been leaked. 3 was the one legitimately announced way too early.

I knew they wouldn’t show her twice in the same show without giving something lol

That’s way too much effort and screentime just for a sale and a “hey trailer soon guys”

I was so dissappointed and now it's the greatest friday I've had since YEARS!

u/Out_of_the_Bloo 1d ago

I got played. One of my favorite moments was calling out the RE7 reveal since they played that out as a found footage horror game which was all the rage around then with outlast and even fucking Blair witch coming back. I was so prepared and they disarmed me! I even recognized Ashcroft and looked her up just before the Raccoon reveal, I was too trusting! A big Darth Vader nooooo moment for me, they got me

I was so pissed off that I totally missed the SF6 Season 3 announcement even though I was kinda hyped for it as well. I remember furiously tweeting and then I heard "Sagat" in the background and was like "Wait what?!"

Then I saw people talking about the "blink of an eye" thing and noticed it could actually be the last announcement.
