Well it seems like people do in fact care despite saying that they don't care
I dont need to prove anything, the trailer is right there. Christ you've quoted it enough times. The point isnt that it's vastly different (again, something i never said.... you do that a LOT) but it is different. It doesn't need a side by side comparison.
I know exactly what you said. I asked you why you are going over it again? film trailers dont have better cgi than the full release. It just doesn't happen so its a pointless question to ask.
Ah we're back to pointing at people and calling them all defenders.
Yes it is different because it is shot in a cinematic way and not from a POV from a players perspective... Christ almighty

If you want to achieve the same, just turn off the HUD and enable the cinematic camera mode, there you go, you have got the cinematic presentation of GTA 5.
You are the one that is insinuating that the graphics are different therefore you do NEED to show "hard" evidence to prove your point, otherwise, as midgen likes to say, all I see are "false claims".
Tell columbo that all those analogies/questions are pointless. We are doing a "what if" scenario and it is guaranteed that "if" films did show fake CGI in the trailers, they would get slammed for it, well, maybe not... seems that people are quite happy about this false advertising practice
Well it is defending their stance, just look at the mafia 3 and no mans sky thread with regards to all the people defending the developers purely because they bought the game(s). It is like anything people buy, they see/hear a comment about a product they own and even if it is true, they don't like "said" comment so they go into defence mode.
@Nexus18 didn't you and midget have this argument in The Division thread before it released? That turned okay good, if a little boring and grindy until patch 1.3.
Yup we did and he still says that the claims of it being downgraded are false
Game is great, it looks great, it plays great etc. etc. but that doesn't change the fact that it got downgraded big time from the e3 showing and that there was no disclaimer notice saying that it would change for the final release.
you asked me about film trailers. I didnt bring it up...
Do you remember or did it get lost in your rambling?
I will give you that.
I'm not defending these practices but the punter has to bare some responsibility, Ubi get away with this because they can, period. Punters know what to expect from Ubi yet still continue to throw their hard earned at them and that only feeds into a continuation of that same behaviour.
Gamers for some weird and inexplicable reason are unable to learn lessons easily based upon past experiences and some publishers and developers absolutely need them not to learn those lessons otherwise their marketing hyperbole would have to look vastly different to what it does today.
Yup I fully agree.
Even though I and the likes of yourself know what to do, it still doesn't change the fact that hundreds of thousands, if not millions still pre-order based on those lies and as a whole this hurts the gaming industry, which in return affects "us".
Even people who work for companies that do this wish their companies and the industry as a whole would stop doing said act:
I do share this in the hope’s that my colleagues and publishers and a lot of people who make false promises and do demonstrations which wrongfully create too much hype that they cannot deliver on ultimately stop doing such things. I want to see the industry actually move forward and not be so full of itself by promising too much and delivering too little.
