2019 is going to be the year I have spent the least on games since this gen started, I'm usually good for 15 or more purchases but there isn't anything coming for the rest of the year that I feel like I have to have. I'm sure I'll pick up a few games but nowhere near as many as every previous year this gen.
 
I didn't really pay much to anything at E3 this year except for the MS conference on TV, but from what I've seen discussed on various forums there doesn't seem to be a single game I'll be getting for the rest of the year. Everything I'm interested in is online only games, so I guess I'm pretty much screwed for new releases it seems.

Gamescom is just too close to E3 to bother with a presentation anymore IMO, unless you hold back something big to show there it's hard to justify the expense of a conference as well as pulling teams off of projects to get new demos ready.

The acquisition includes a portfolio of minority investments in five early-stage development studios; Palindrome Interactive, Fall Damage, Neon Giant, Kavalri and Framebunker as well as royalty rights to THQ Nordic’s upcoming game Biomutant. GKGI’s previous investments in IGDB, Bearded Dragons and Goodbye Kansas VR will be retained in Goodbye Kansas AB.
