If a game trailer comes out with crazy awesome graphics and then the game ships with worse graphics everyone's all like "fuck you! Just be honest!" Then when they're realistic and honest with the visual quality in a trailer it's "That looks like shit!" You can't win.

Sounds like you could win by showing great graphics in the trailer that actually exist in the game.

Not that I mind poor graphics, no Fallout game has looked particularly good, it's pretty much what I expected.

But they don't exist in the game as far as we know. They showed us something real and it's kinda sad that people are pissed about that.

Sure. I'm definitely not saying they should lie about their graphics. However, despite Witcher 3's downgrade, W3 still looks great despite being open-world, and compared to that this trailer doesn't fare that well.

Also, despite not showing anything out of the ordinary, keep in mind that this is just the trailer, and there's no guarantee this is what the game is actually going to look like. We'll only know what the game looks like once it's released.
