Well, it will be one of the best compliments if the game actually looks like that.

If this is a classic tale of trailer footage looking better than the finished game, that dev is going to have egg on his face.

Oh hell ya, big time! I've got some high hopes, but the level of graphics on display does seem beyond this Gen for gameplay, somehow.

In a series that is infamous for over promising (nudge nudge peter molyneux)

Yup. It wouldn't surprise me if the product that ships after that trailer is just a choose your own adventure popup book.

Still better than Godus.

This "classic tale" you mention has basically only happened once or twice, as long as I'm understanding you.

If you mean "often times scenimatic cgi trailers look nothing like the game" then yeah that's fair.

If you mean "this in engine trailer looks way better than the game that launched as far as fidelity is concerned" then there are no legitimate examples I've seen besides Watch Dogs 1. The spiderman puddle was a complete hallucination, as was every other example I've seen.
