The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt's launch trailer is one of the best trailers ever

[BoJack]

Everybody is busy with PS5 event and stuff, meanwhile I'm here, waiting for Part II reviews, watching The Witcher 3 trailers, hanging from the edge of the current-gen, enjoying the view, while it's about to fade away.

Anyways, let's re-watch this awesome trailer, and feel free to share your fav launch trailers, or trailers in general. You have to kill the damn time. Right?

 

[FolderBrad]

Not even the best Witcher trailer.

Also, yes.

It is also one of the greatest. Man I have to play this game.

 

[Xeteh]

If we're counting CG trailers the Sacred Ashes trailer for Dragon Age: Origins is still one of my favorites.

 

[Firefly]

This makes me super excited about Cyberpunk 2077 trailers.

[Ocean Bones]

I nominate these two ass the most hype trailers of all time.

 

[Kinthey]

The hud fading in is a nice touch

 

[Fadewise]

It's no "Killing Monsters"

 

[MDSVeritas]

The Witcher 3 had some truly excellent trailers.

Even as not a huge fan of CG, their Killing Monsters trailer is truly striking

 

[Mifec]

It doesn't come close to anything Kojima has ever done, hell it's weaker then shit Nomura does.

 

[Valcrist]

This is the best Witcher 3 trailer IMO.

Why? It sold me on the game and the series.

God of War trailers were masterfully crafted as well. Can't wait to see the next trailer from you guys, FOR THE SEQUEL! :)

 

[Mindfreak191]

Sorry, but no, it's and will always be the "Sword of Destiny" trailer.

 

[dex3108]

It's not even best Witcher 3 trailer

 

[spiderferi]

Nothing tops that Icarus trailer of Deus Ex: Human Revolution back in E3 2010. I fell instantly in love with the game and followed it closely. Played the original deus ex before the release of HR just to fully immerse myself in the universe. Sad to see the series in a limbo after MD underperforming.

MGS2 reveal trailer (drops mic)

 

[Theorry]

[Nephilim]

Botw launch trailer is still the best ever.

 

[pappacone]

for me, it's AC Origins

 

[Tovarisc]

With how many trailers TW3 got leading up to the release it's bit wild that we have only two trailers for CP77, three if you count project announcement CGI from 2013.

 

[Tyaren]

This is the best Witcher 3 trailer IMO.

Why? It sold me on the game and the series.

Yep, these are the trailers that sell the game best...at least to me.

 

[gully state]

It's this one... especially when you realize

Spoiler

This is an epilogue

 

[Voyevoda]

It doesn't come close to anything Kojima has ever done, hell it's weaker then shit Nomura does.

Speaking ooooof.... Time to rewatch that marvel:

 

[spacer]

For Witcher related trailers, I like the Killing Monsters trailer.

For any game, I really love the Star Wars the Old Republic CGI trailers. Watching them all back to back is one of the best Star Wars experiences to date. I wish we would have gotten a full length movie.

 

[Sirank]

world of Witcher trailer >>>>> launch trailer > sword of destiny trailer

 

[ciddative]

Ehh it's okay.

Something something Mass Effect 2 launch trailer.

Nah, not even the best Witcher 3 trailer

Click to shrink...

True, because

The Witcher 3 Sword of Destiny trailer is 1000x better

I'm glad OP didn't post the Sword of Detiny trailer, cos that shit just makes me sad at the disparity between the fucking awesomeness of that and what we got.

 

[SupremeWu]

All of the trailers and commercials were amazing, I still re-watch them sometimes, can't wait to see what they do with CyberPunk 2077

actually Witcher games/universe were never even on my radar until I saw that 30-second commercial 'This world needs a professional'

Nah, that's a very basic trailer.

 

[Catsygreen]

OP is right.
But the Witcher 2 launch trailer is close.



And this one too:

Does't have actual gameplay, but this was the best to me:

[rashbeep]

sword of destiny still gives me chills

 

[SunKing]

Persona 5 hands down has my favorite trailer from last decade. Plus, the entire spectacle of HOW it was revealed... *chef kiss*

 

[Revolver Oshawott]

"A Night to Remember" is one of my fav trailers of all time.

 

[Madrugador]

It's amazing. I still watch it from time to time because it's so great.

This is the most memorable trailer i can think of. I get chills every time, so badass.

I feel like whenever someone says something is the best trailer ever, it's invariably because they're a big fan of the game itself and genre. For those that aren't, it's just a trailer... which is I guess how I feel about this trailer.

I'd be curious to see what trailers people find excellent for games that they don't otherwise care for. For me, a lot of the Metal Gear Solid trailers fall into that category... haven't played one since MGS3, but they still always have great direction. I'm also a fan of Rockstar's trailers, but I'm partial because I'm also a fan of their games.

I support this choice BUT I wanna make the case for the shorter cut trailer that I think is much more impactful and snappier.

 

[Deleted member 29660]

The Witcher games always had outstanding trailers. The same can be said for Cyberpunk 2077, the studio knows its stuff.

 

[Deleted member 37928]

That's not even the best Witcher 3 trailer.

 

[Moose]

All CG trailers suck and can fuck right off.

How about this one?

 

[Artdayne]

I agree OP, and I feel like it takes on specially meaning after you've played the game in a way that the others don't.
