Why has every trailer for this game been abysmal? They show the most boring slow-paced footage they could find. The Treehouse footage with the opening cinematic looks a lot better, there's so much going on. If they decided to release that anyway, why not use that to market your game?

@Octane The running theory is that there's a major new mechanic not revealed yet that they want to save for a later trailer. They seem to be very careful about what sections of the game they're showing off right now, it's mainly the same few sections for the most part. My guess is that they either don't have a major gameplay mechanic ready to show or they're intentionally spreading out the reveal to build hype later.

I'm not a fan of what they did to Sylux during that cutscene from the Treehouse Live segment. That's not the Sylux I've been encountering and playing as for over 19 years in Metroid Prime Hunters. Even though I'm disappointed with that scene, I'm still planning on getting the game, and will be interested in seeing how Sylux is shown in additional footage once Prime 4's marketing really steps up. My excitement for the game though is certainly much lower than it was last year as are my expectations.

theres a rumour already going around that prime 5 is being developed at the same time as 4, and four is where they are experimenting with mouse controls so five can be perfect. it might be true, since 2 & 3 were developed at the same time, and prime 4 doesnt seem big enough to take eight years 😂 i hope its true tho, the more metroid the more happiness! soo excited to be playing four with stunning visuals.

While watching some Prime 2 footage recently I noticed that skeleton Dark Samus (or whatever you would call it) also has 3 eyes, so there might be a connection there.
