I've hated the idea of this game since it was announced. I really wish they'd get off the MMO train of thought, as the setting to the MMO looks like it would be epic as a singleplayer or perhaps co-op Elder Scrolls experience.

The cinematic thing isn't really new though. MMO's are the worse offenders, but we can at least keep hold of the cinematics if they are cool.

This example being from another game that I wish had never been made. Still has awesome cinematic trailers though.




I think the Gears of War cinematic trailers work quite well at conveying the gameplay in an indirect way.
