I had that same exact reaction. Like, I loved DOS2 and know it had horror elements in it, but the overall tone was much more humorous and more cartoony. Seeing this trailer lean so heavily into edginess and shock value was a little disheartening. There’s enough awful shit out there in the real world, so I really cherish the few RPG series that reject cynicism, postmodernist storytelling and grimdark aesthetics for a more positive and hopeful feel. At least we still have Dragon Quest and Xenoblade I guess…
