on the playstation blog podcast straight from Shawn Layden

 

http://www.pushsquare.com/news/2018/05/sony_wont_be_holding_a_traditional_press_conference_at_e3_2018

 

if they had a change of plans after the reaction, that's great, but the first news after Shawn's comments made it seem like a bit of a repeat of the PSX format.

Have you actually listened to the podcast?

Cause at no point do that say its mostly those 4 games nor did they downplay 3rd party titles. Shawn Layden explicitly states that there will be announcements from 3rd party publishers and from indies. The PSBlog says the same thing;

https://blog.us.playstation.com/2018/05/11/playstation-at-e3-2018-the-journey-begins-june-11-at-600pm-pacific/

There's a limited amount of time for the conference itself, usually 90 minutes or less.

There's also a lot of confirmed things that will be shown (in depth into the 4 announced exclusives) and some confirmed not to be shown or discussed (like any forms of new hardware)

No one is going to get hyped by indie announcements.

Now that leaves some 3rd party announcements which have pretty much been spoiled in the last few weeks by certain retailers and other sources (RE2, Beyond Good and Evil 2, Splinter Cell, DMC5, etc). This leaves very little room for big surprises.

So yeah, as I originally stated, nothing worth losing sleep over (literally in my case). Will be pretty much ok to watch the new trailers on the next day.
