…and the god damn trailer shows way too much of the game! Why do devs do this? It’s not making me want to buy the game more, on the opposite, I’m now considering whether it’s even worth it. If the devs really want to show off, they could just end the trailer with hinting that there’s more and leave it as mystery.
The whole point of exploration games is to find out stuff for yourself and be amazed about stuff you didn’t expect. If you show everything it just spoils the fun out of it.
I agree. When this happens, and it happens a lot (even with films) I get the feeling that I’ve already played the game and it’s not worth it. When they show too much it takes away the excitement of playing. I couldn’t agree more with your comment, I keep wondering if this type of trailer actually makes people want to play.
