Thread: 3.0 Expansion

* RAISES HAND WAY UP HIGH!!!!*

I'm excited, but not as excited as I would have been if the teaser wasn't mostly a cutscene and had more in-game stuff to show off. Still a ways to go though so it's understandable.

well sorry but thats a trailer (not a teaser)... because it goes deeply into game content.

Notice that it's not a CGI trailer? Teasers can be in any format, so he is not incorrect in saying that there would be more excitement to see something actual in-game in the teaser which yes, for some people, seeing in-game is important to get excited, believe it or not. We're in an era where, for example, League of Legends has awesome CGI movies...and the gameplay is absolutely NOTHING like that.

Here's the first one.

First link is a trailer, not a teaser. Second link is more like the FFXIV teaser than you think, as the first 2:10 of that video is just showcasing past content, and the rest of the video is only showing zones without any content.

That video went up only a few weeks before WOTG released. I expect once we get closer to the expansion we'll see a number of trailers using in-game footage.
