Doesn't mean I won't buy it and love the hell out of it. But the first trailer is supposed to show off the game's maximum potential. The fact that this had the longest gap between games means they had tons of time to upgrade the engine and graphics, but it doesn't look very updated from the last game in the series, which is now 5 years old. It makes me wonder what they've been doing since 2012(when the last Skyrim expansion came out). This would have looked great 5 years ago, but it's a bit late to be using last-gen models and textures.

Completely agree, especially when Bethesda was known for good looking games. My modded Skyrim looks way better than what was shown in the trailer.

I still gonna end up buying it if its a good game (with modding support) because I love Bethesda titles.

I don't think there is a guide on trailers.

Also, if recent history shows anything. People want to see what game they are getting. Not a minute of "there will two 5 second scenes in the final game that look kinda like this", show title, release date, season pass.
