I guess I shouldn't be surprised at everyone having enjoyed this direct at this point, but... I am.

I mean, me and all my Smash buddies all went bonkers over the E3 direct, and bonkers again with the Smash direct. Today, we were all massively disappointed... and in every case, we've been the opposite of the internet. Personally, I really, really didn't like this one. Luigi's Mansion 3 is a cool announcement but I'm not really interested in it, and from then on it was a 30-minute slog through boring 3DS games and uninteresting ports, and by the end we were all like "okay, give us a cool new character" and instead we get... Isabelle? Bleh. I mean, I guess she's not that bad, but the trailer was so boring and anticlimactic, it was just the worst. At least the Animal Crossing announcement made up for it a little.

Just go to show how personal the enjoyment of the directs can be.And this should show you how much they are.

 

The E3 presentation ended up being half Smash Bros related, and the other half had very few new announcements.Out of the top of my head, those would be Deamon X Machina and FE Three Houses(That were completely new, and no, Im not considering that brief mention of FE in 2017 as having been announced before, because it was only a Title, and a placeholder at that).You and your friend got extremely excited with that E3 because you love Smash with all your heart, from what I understood.Yet there were many, that while consider Smash a great game, its not our all time favorite franchise.So in the end we felt that the E3 lacked games, in a place that we are supposed to know what next year holds in store for us.

On the other hand we have this direct that had far more bigger announcements, like Luigi Mansion 3(Huge announcement), Animal Crossing, and FF ports galore to name a few.Civ 6 would be another one, but that one got leaked.It was a direct that appealed to more people, and thus it was more liked.You didnt like it that much simply because, as you said, the games werent for you.Just to get this out of the way, I would have awarded the direct a 7.5.Animal Crossing does nohting for me.I mostly get excited with these kind of titles because of the announcements themselves and by people getting excited over them.
