Idk how E3 would work when new games are kinda just bad. Only AAA game I've seen recently that interested me was Tropico 7. Is that AAA? Probably.

Thats like your opinion. And no new Tropico 7 would be AA at best

yeah i know its my opinion. The entire post is an opinion about missing E3. So I shared mine lol.

E3 could work pretty easy. The main reasons it doesnt exist anymore are probably boring business related things.

I think its just a bit reductionist to say there are no good AAA games when we just had Expedition 33 and Baldurs Gate 3 which are almost universally praised. Like there are still high quality games being made even on the highest level of game development. And not every game at these award shows needs to be an AAA game either . Games like Silksong prove that even indies can have huge hype behind them.
