It's the first time that there is no hype for Gamescom

Gamescom gets hype? To me it always felt like the official after-party for E3.

Gamescom has been better than E3 for the last few years. It's only this year E3 came back on top with the crazy Sony conference which won't be topped for a while.

I don't think it will ever be topped.  This years E3 made into reality 3 gaming myths people have been wanting for so many years, and two of those were 10 plus years in the making (including the biggest and most wanted one).  Not to mention all the other great games displayed.

This years gamescom is mostly about FFXV though.  I honestly hope we just see if the story is being better constructed, but without spoilers.

It would be an incredible surprise if we got to see some well thought out dialogue, then my worries would be assuaged.  I doubt it though.

They will probably only show off more gameplay with a few story scenes.
