While I wasn't hugely excited about Mitsoda's thin-blood idea, I'm even less excited about being an awakened Elder. Also, knowing the heart and soul of the original will be missing does not fill me with optimism.
The content of the trailer gives me nothing to work with really, either. It will have first-person action combat, that's about it, and it's the last thing anyone excited for a Bloodlines sequel would care about.
I know characters, writing and atmosphere can be hard to get across in a trailer but I would have liked something more. The previous trailer at least had similar undertones to the first game, you could tell it had some of the same people involved and it gave me some optimism.
It Paradox wanted me to get me on board for this attempt they could have at least used one of Rik Schaffer's new tracks for the trailer, but I assume he has been scrapped too.
