Trailer Breakdowns
Frame-level analysis of the two trailers and the Extended Look. Posted by members and reviewed by a moderator before it appears.
What belongs in Trailer Breakdowns
Three official videos exist: two trailers and the Extended Look. The presentation alone runs 26 minutes and confirmed more about how the game actually plays than the previous three years of speculation combined, and a great deal of it is still unexamined frame by frame.
The best breakdowns here find something nobody else had noticed and show their working, so anyone can check it. The weakest simply restate what the video plainly depicts, which is why a timestamp and a claim are worth more than a long description.
Our own confirmed-systems inventory from the presentation is in the Extended Look breakdown.
What makes a strong post
- Give the video and timestamp so anyone can check.
- Focus on mechanics, UI and world detail rather than plot speculation.
- Say what a detail would imply if you are right, and what would disprove it.
What gets removed
- Comparisons against leaked footage.
- Frame-rate or resolution claims from compressed uploads.
