It’s a $30 release brand new. Don’t get your hopes up, they’re shoving this one out the door and moving on. Budget price, ugly 3D & multiplayer only, feels like a mobile title that got upgraded to a console release at the last minute, or something they couldn’t figure out how to monetize as a freemium game so they just ported it up to try and milk any value out of it that they can.

Really would have loved a proper next game following SoT and TFBW, those are two of my favourite titles. I get why they wanted to do something else, but they couldn’t have designed a more underwhelming follow up that has no crossover with the audience for the first two games.

Ah, that's fair. It did seem like they were very specifically not showing any standard gameplay. Figured it was intended to be more of a teaser than a trailer... but your thing makes more sense.

I'll probably still try it, unless it looks or sounds worse by then. I don't pre-order stuff, so I'll see the reviews before I buy.
