Information Behind the scenes: Process of the Halloween Trailer

Hi,

Something that I was always interested in is early states and prototypes of games. I've always been interested what developers thought and ideas they had early on, but had to scrap for one reason or another.

Therefor I am an active follower on multiple places where prototypes gets released or leaked, and than heavily documented on differences between the final version.

While this isn't the biggest thing, I want to present here an early trailer that was made by NugZeh multiple days before the final trailer:



This video was initially just something he made for the fun because he was waiting for a few things to finish. We really liked it, and saw it as potential for an actual public trailer, and so that happened.

Obviously a lot of things are unpolished in here. GM commands being used, some files were still old (christmas coupons!), and more. Furthermore, we thought the old trailer showed and spoiled a little too much, so we thought about pumping it up a bit and shorten it by a lot

And so after a few more prototype trailers (music change, minor changes, removal of some Neckson stuff), the full trailer was finished:



I don't know if anyone find this interesting, but felt like sharing it anyway for the people that are curious how much goes behind the scene sometimes, while public only gets to see a little bit of it!
