Remember the first announcement trailer of cyberpunk 2077, it was a CGI trailer with a police officer shooting at a cyberpsycho woman? SO is it wise to something like that for an indie game to create some hype when game's demo isn't even out yet? I know you generally advice with a NO but in this case, it's only to create some hype, or that wouldn't work either?
@DerekLieu29 күн бұрын
I don't advise it, because remember that Cyberpunk wasn't coming out of nowhere, it came out of the second sequel to a game which ended up being one of the most successful AAA games ever made. A cool trailer does not automatically build hype. Have you heard of Exoborne Master The Apocalypse? It premiered with a CG trailer at last year's Game Awards and I had to dig into their channel to find what the name was. The only way you can POSSIBLY create hype without gameplay is if the premise is SUPER UNIQUE and even then it's not a guarantee.
@sanketvaria973428 күн бұрын
@@DerekLieu no I never heard of ecoborne. tbh, I haven't even watched the award show so I assume 90% of the audience do not watch that sort of stuff either. The core concept of my game is that player creates their own weapon to defeat enemies. So my idea was to make a CGI trailer that at least showcase that. Secondly, I decided to run this trailer via ads on various forums and social media, except google, to make it more targeted. I would put steam page as well fro wishlist so I can start collecting audience. What do you think? it's still a No right? how do I tackle this then? should I wait till my game is finished enough where I can actually make a gameplay trailer?
@DerekLieu28 күн бұрын
@@sanketvaria9734 I wouldn’t do it; what you described doesn’t sound unique enough. Also, in ads people are used to seeing CG trailers for mobile games which look nothing like the actual game so they’ll probably lump your game in with those. I’d wait until you can show gameplay. Think of it this way, would YOU wishlist a game based on a CG trailer or a Steam page with no gameplay at all?

@@DerekLieu I've tried to find it multiple times, i don't remember the name, but its a shortfilm, taking place at night, (french?) They're in city streets, male/female couple, has a similar piano / violin melody, same panning shot through the window. Pretty sure if its still somehwere on KZfaq, my comment from like a decade ago would probably still be on it. I think I was specifically trying to find the song from the trailer, and went down a rabbit hole, and came across that shortfilm somehow.

I love animated game trailers, but I think it's a bit annoying to not get a good sight of what the games actually like or what it's even called until half way in or not at all. You can also stylize the trailer a bit more, to save on costs and match the games energy to hype it up without losing momentum when the viewer sees that it's different if you're good at making do with what you have.

I would add another note: ideally, the animated trailer should have a similar artstyle to the game itself, to make the transition from animation to gameplay less jarring. For example, Cult of the Lamb's animated trailers match the style of the game. So does Among Us.
