This E3 is not a doom & gloom moment, and there are many factors which might realistically even reduce the amount of content intentionally being shown this year: I absolutely include myself in the criticism that the Xbox Games Showcase last year in the grand scheme of things wasn't as important as I thought it would be, and the same will be the case for this year's show.
I will not look at this E3 as their one main, do-or-die moment, but more so as another (albeit important) moment of many throughout this year and in the years ahead. The last several months have shown that Xbox can actually be pretty dominant in these "news cycles", if such a thing exists, without having any shows. In general, I think we have to stop to look at these shows as the one definitive moment every year. I know many people will forget about this post tomorrow and will let expectations go wild again, but hey, I'll still give it a try. Keep in mind this post is about first-party only, there obviously will be third-party as well.
At the end of the day I think that might help people with expectation management. So this year I'm trying something new, looking at the situation as objectively as I can without any dreams added. Many people every year ask me to do a prediction, despite me being horrible at these things.
