Gotta remember the audience watching isn't full of players playing the current game so when they see 2.0 full on CGI they will just relate that with 1.0's crappy system without any info on any changes that happened since then until now.

And E3 isn't really player friendly, it's more of a show off show against big companies, so it's better to have it at it's own event or gamescon or TGS where more players get to attend and try it out.

And just to confirm JP P.Letter also has same note in there so no translation error or anything they both confirming there is some new info regarding 2.0 at E3.

We'll get some info at E3 so calm down

SE never said the trailer would be CGI. People assumed it would be because SE wasn't talking much about it, they didn't try to hype it and Yoshi-P even tried calming our expectation saying it had a lot of 1.0 content in it. All that pointed to a bad trailer full of stuff we already saw and maybe minimal 2.0 footage or even all CGI for the 2.0 part. In the end pple's fear were founded as SE pulled the plug on the trailer all together.

We all saw the part were he says he's going to E3 and that new info will be released but again he is making to sound low profile and he doesn't sound too excited about it. Just like signs pointed to a disappointing trailer, sings here point to not much info and not what you may expect.

Remember their artwork contest? Besides the Ultima Weapon artwork,(if it even is Ultima) it was a really joke. It gave us nothing about 2.0 and made us look like fools. So all i am saying is not to expect much from SE at E3 this year. I would love to be wrong tho'.
