I don't want live action trailers. No one wants live action trailers. This does nothing for me. This was a waste of money that could have been given to devs. The only trailers that will sell me are actual game play trailers.

London Symphony Orchestra with a cool sounding digitized woman's voice on reverb. Sounds cool as fuck. cant wait to hear the full thing assuming they recorded vocals for the whole song.

Game might be good too...

I’m a little confused by this. Was it live action? Some closeup bits seem like they were maybe live action, most of it didn’t. And if so, why? This is a video game, right? What am I missing?

I think maybe I’m wasting energy trying to figure out what they were trying to say with this very weird trailer.

It's "live action" because they used actual humans. Though there's enough greenscreen / VFX to be a marvel movie.

Yeah, makes sense. The man’s face looked real to me, but that’s about it.

Man I miss when we did live action trailers.

Go check out the ones for Halo 3: ODST back in the day. Shit was wild and got people super hype for a game release.

Live action trailers are just fun and I hope they do more.

Feels like this was meant to be a TV commercial.
