That VA is atrocious... hahah
Conceptually, there's a lot of cool things going on with setting and tech.
Plotwise? They have done nothing to prove that this isn't an entirely throwaway story. Couldn't be less interested in the protagonist, his relationship with his mech, or even what the actual driving conflict is. "I wasn't meant to be a pilot or have this sick mech" isn't really a compelling angle to keep hammering on.
How can they have so many cool elements going on but make this look so boring and generic?

I don't think this is a great trailer to show what all they are doing with the campaign. It is just all big set pieces, yeah we have seen those in every shooter now.
I have seen a lot more footage of the single player that has really shown they are trying to do something special with the game.
-Multiple routes you can take in a level
-Platforming
-Work alongside the Titan to get things accomplished (IE, not in Titan)
-Unique Animal enemies
Also, they are giving the Titan some personality to it, it isnt just a tool that does what you say, there is more to it.
We might have something pretty special here, I am excited to check it out.

I think I'll play it again...without the sound. That voiceover/script is Dinklebot level cringy.

Pretty nice looking, I'm hoping to catch it on a holiday sale since my budget is pretty tight right for games.

Trailer doesn't inspire confidence.. will wait for reviews.
Now that I have pre-ordered (and can't cancel since it was a code)... I'm getting back to being sceptical. Like, I needed to encourage myself to get it.
After what I played of the BF1 campaign, the bar is set higher for me personally than it was prior, since the last SP campaign was Doom (which was far too easy).

I want it to be good, I will have to wait though. BF1 will take most of my time but if the campaign is good I will snag it on sale and try the multiplayer out.

Wasn't expecting that kind of cheesiness from Respawn, but I'm excited for a single player game from them.

Lmao story and main character seems so generic but whatever. The platforming involved in the single player will prolly make this a really fun campaign. Weren't previews pretty positive about it anyways
Hyped to dive in on the MP even moreso of course

There's a reason for that.

Guys guys! Modern Warfare 1 and 2 aren't exactly nobel worthy writing, the storytelling is what sells the thing, we'll know that wtih T2 when the game is out.

I'll stick with Battlefield 1... I have no idea why they are releasing this like a week after BF1.

I...don't get the reference?
The Titan is Trico. You'll have to protect it, it will have to protect you, and
it will probably die for you at the end to pull at your heartstrings.

I'm gonna cry when BT dies.
There's a lot to like in the trailer. A lot of amazing set pieces and interesting level design. It's just that the plot and characters are insanely vapid. Time will tell once we get the actual game, but the trailer doesn't do it many favors.
Seems painfully obvious that's what's gonna happen. BT sacrificing himself to save Jack. Hope not though, that would be too predictable :/
