| Boutros said: CGI trailers are perfect for game announcements. That's what the E3 conferences are about. So if anything there should be more CGI trailers during the conferences and then gameplay on the showfloor. It's pretty annoying to watch 20 minutes demos of gameplay during a conference especially if the game is not interesting to you. |
Absolutely. For story-driven content, CGI trailers are the perfect way to set up what the game is all about. Otherwise, it would be someone simply talking over game-play footage, trying to explain the story, which would be weak for a reveal. That's not really what I want to see on stage. I'd rather watch that in a video released afterwards, after I already know something about what I'm seeing.
