I straight up am not interested in them at all.

There are some games where I become attached to the writing, even though most are pretty mediocre and it's not why I play games. But I've never once had a story trailer interest me in any way. I will play the game if the mechanics are compelling, regardless of story. If they aren't, the story isn't better than a book or TV show and I don't care.

It's super annoying when even the screenshots are cinematic nonsense. It's a game. I want to know what the game is.
