Clickbait trailers [spoilers]

Has any1 noticed that Square Enix keeps using clickbait scenes in their trialers recently? I thought the Crystal Miqo'te will die because he got pierced, but he wasn't even wounded. In the Stormblood traler, people thought Y'shtoda would die but she didn't either. We now have 6 Mary Sues called the "Scions" who will never die despite what the tranler shows. please stop clickbaiting your loyal subscribers and actualy make some1 die instead of just shocking ppl and then not killing anyone lol

How is it clickbait if they showed what happened?

When you show a scene of someone getting pierced through the tummy you will guess that means they died. They keep clickbaiting these scenes but when you actually play they didn't die. It's time to start killing off Scions.

I mean he did technically die. He just cheated his way out of it in the end because SE knows half the fanbase would be baying for their blood otherwise.

Wonder when he'll be forced to move to account #4.

You notice how he only makes threads on the weekends when moderators aren't really watching?

Yes, yes, I noticed too soon.

Also imagine dying to a stomach wound in a city full of healers, and possibly right next to a healer.

It's almost like trailers are supposed to make people want to see what happens.

Ok but my heart broke when I saw the Crystal M'iqote look like he's going to die and I got severe depression but when I actually did the quest he didn't die so I feel betrayed.

My heart breaks every time you make a thread

This has been commonly done in trailers for as long as the concept of "trailer" has existed.
The only odd thing is that you haven't noticed that until now.

They already killed off the least interesting Scion this expansion so I mean...
