I like the look, I like the graphics, but I dislike the pacing. It made no sense. It didnt feel like a Bungie trailer, which always tend to have a sense of grand drama and emotion, which is something that defines Halo games. I'm hoping this was just a quick trailer by 343, and not a true reflection of Halo 4. Anniversary looks great, so I am still quietly hopeful.
Amen to that.
I actually thought the pacing was pretty good. As a teaser for a brand new Halo story (note: Halo Reach wasn't brand new - we had known what had happened for years and as such the trailer was simply realising those thoughts into trailer form) it's job is to surprise the audience, make them think "he's back!", make the story look massive, action-packed, adventurous, bad-ass and exciting. It doesn't need to be as much of a slow, daunting trailer like Reach's was.
You make a very good point, and I could agree with you. Still, something about the pacing seemed a bit off. At least it didn't have the generic "epic music" that seems to define bland epicness these days (not a paradox).
