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.

Have you seen all the gameplay they've shown on various conferences? I believe it was last PSX or Paris Games Week where they had a rather extended gameplay session.
