I don’t have any idea why people would be negative about a look at new third party IPs to start a gen. You’re the one who reads minds. Maybe they were disappointed that they didn’t see Forza or Fable?

Also, that wasn’t a conference lol. It was a 20 or whatever minute Inside Xbox video.

It wan't just a 20 minute inside Xbox video, it was the first official look at what MS said were next gen games running on Series X. It was an open goal for MS to kick off next gen gaming and you don't have to be a mind reader to get why it bombed so hard. Just look at the comments...

"Really disappointed, nothing really caught my eye. Felt like these games can be on the Xbox one."

"Thats one small step up in graphics. One giant leap in console prices"

"Some of these "gameplays" have worse graphics than current games. What a waste of teraflops."

"So far I haven’t spotted a difference that human eyes can see"

There was nothing really wrong with the games themselves, some actually looked pretty cool. Also, MS showed exactly what they've been promising for months. Games that, just like pc, scale up and down their family of devices and will run the best on Series X. Like I said, it all sounded great on paper when no games were shown. But now that they have, people were pissed. 

Now for arguments sake, lets say they're going to do the same thing at July's event and we'll just be seeing 1st party Xbox One games with an optimized for Series X logo. Can you then honestly say you're not going to be disappointed?
