Lots of cool trailers filling me with sweet, dramatic eye candy
While I enjoy good CGI trailers, they never "sell me" on the games. I actually have a perverse reaction and wonder, "Why are they NOT showing actual gameplay? Is it so awful?"
One thing a trailer needs to do, in my opinion, is get players interested in an upcoming game. Some trailers fail to do this.
I don't put much stock in them and don't watch a lot of them. I'm the player that rarely buys a game on release day, preferring to "wait and see." But they certainly can be fun to watch

Personally the only modern MMORPG trend that annoys me is the idea that MMOs need to be designed in a way to attract people who don't actually like MMOs. Which to me makes about as much sense as someone trying to figure out a way to get vegetarians to eat at their steakhouse. - FARGIN_WAR
Well, trailers are nice if you want something to show in a booth big screen these days. Beyond that, they aren't a very productive use of resources.
Take for example the latest Death Stranding trailer. My interest in that game hasn't changed one bit, either positively or negatively. Some gameplay footage certainly would. Still, it probably looks good on a big screen somewhere.
these are top 3 i can remember of top my head that i enjoyed
simple made you feel it the end of world
this one i enjoyed a lot because everyone want to be the hero, you play games were you always win kill 1000 bad guys an save the girl, i felt i was the father here trying be the hero and it all fell apart...
this one i enjoyed because i played WC3 and felt arthas was a good villain. if things just went different he would be a hero but he slowly lost himself on a quest for power to stop a darkness he himself slow became.
Hard to choose since there are so many, but from WoW it's an in-game
cinematic. SPOLIER: if you haven't done the alliance side and don't
want a story spoiler then don't watch this:
From the witcher 3 it has to be this one:
I'm not an IT Specialist, Game Developer, or Clairvoyant in real life, but like others on here, I play one on the internet.
I really enjoyed Wildstar's first trailer. It got me interested in the game. Unfortunately, as it developed, I saw it not a game I'd enjoy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x-NXdWk9sm8
