Sad but not unexpected. It was a special time when E3 rolled around 10 years ago and I’ll remember it mostly fondly

It was already in bad health. That’s not a good combination with COVID.

So they killed off the convention after it got better? This doesn’t track. ELI5

“After more than two decades of serving as a central showcase for the video game industry, ESA has decided to end E3,” the statement reads.

Not just an opinion piece, for anyone wondering.
