![]() And Naughty Dog knew that full well, otherwise they wouldn't have inserted Joel into that scene. It's not about the scene itself, it's about what it stands for. Than that trailer dropped and everyone was relieved to see Joel in a seemingly later stage of the game. ![]() If I remember correctly Joel was missing in a lot of promo material (I don't think we saw him at all between the first trailer and the scene you mention) so a lot of people questioned wether he's alive. Lie if it helps me enjoy the eventual product. I'd have no interest in seeing a film where the trailer ends with "Just so you know, it's just the blonde girl, she gets a bit cut up but is otherwise OK, but probably left with a lot of PTSD to sort out".ĭon't promise me shit you can't deliver, but otherwise, I understand a trailer isn't meant to be taken at face value. The tag line is "Who will survive and what will be left of them?", which is THE best line to get me to buy a ticket. One of my favourite posters is for The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Who sees this 4 years before a game comes out and assumes it's not only canon, but that it's something that absolutely happens in the game just as we see it here? A trailer is to get the possible purchaser excited. When I see that logo pop up, all I want is to know if there's a connection to the prior game, if the game looks as stunning as the previous ones, and if it looks like Naughty Dog are giving it the love and attention it deserves. I hope they make any further trailers for this franchise (if it continues) to be equally as stunning, and as obfuscating as this one. "Oh no, I've just found out you get to play a Russian sniper in the next CoD! Well that's the surprises ruined!" is not something one is likely to hear very often. ![]() I can barely remember those plots while playing the games. If a Borderlands trailer shows me who the characters are in the next game, that's fine. There aren't many games where the story is as important as it is in TLOU. "The trailers lied to us" is something I will never understand when it comes to this game. Because that would be dumb and not something appropriate for a game where there's a huge plot development early on. These are things the trailer should do.ĭoes this trailer say what the game will be about and what the story elements will be? No. Does this trailer capture the atmosphere of the game? Does it show that time has passed, Ellie is older, and is no longer a child that needs protecting, but is instead someone dangerous and driven? Do we get a sample of the amazing graphics the game had to offer?Īll yes.
