And a trailer that is just gameplay doesnt tell me how I interact with the game either. You would need a demo for that. A narrative driven trailer is there to highlight that said game will be narratively driven. 

and truth of the matter is that ppl have already shown that they are willing to pre-order early if they are interested in a game. The only ppl to blame are the countless of ppl willing to do it. 

An extended gameplay trailer can certainly give someone a good sense of how the game plays. Sure, you can't feel the rumble in your palms or the weight and agility of each character, but it's pretty darn close. A demo, of course, is best, but those are becoming less and less common - again, because publishers want us on the hook before we ever get our hands on the game.

And you're right: we as consumers are complicit. We enable companies to take advantage of us.

oh dear god man,.. this is an RPG and story is a massive part of the genre.  this is the first and only story trailer.  this game was announced with a live gameplay demo.  it was followed up with an extended gameplay trailer.  to date we've only have gameplay trailers and no story.  a trailer focused on the story is long overdue and necessary for those of us that enjoy the story elements of a game.  please just stop derailing this thread about horizon with your rant about the state of the industry.

 

OT - trailer was amazing.  love seening mounts are confirmed by this trailer.
