So, the horse is attacked but just left there. This is to bait in the rider. Get him closer and closer as the monsters surround him. Then, just as he understands what is happening, the torch goes out leaving him blind to the creatures that will kill him.
Next scene has him walking through the snow like last night never happened.
Reminds me of the skitterers (?) in D1 that would swarm and retreat to heal, fuckers and their chain stun/interupting led to many a death.
Nowadays they'd swarm and call you a racist and run away
Theyre trying to make it look like that... undead wolf?... was toying with him, stalking his every move. But why the wolf is alone, much less why it didnt run his ass down in the night instead of waiting till daytime is beyond me. There are three different ways I would have took this bullshit:
1. You see what we all know is skitterers darting around the forest floor in the foliage. Similar to this scene in Aliens Covenant -
2. Instead of the wolf stalking him into the daylight, we replace it with a demon/undead Bear and since he doesnt appear to have a weapon, we model out this scene.
3. The last idea is that they should have paid some homage to the game and since we're using in-game footage, have some walls pop up out of fucking nowhere. We see the elite waller monster in the shadows only, but the main character is running away as fast as he can. Queue the rest of the shit where he hides in a cave. But instead, end it with the fucking monster looking down at him from the ceiling with a bit of drool dripping in the almost pitch black cave.
BUT ANYWAYS - shits done with. Just think its sad I could come up with more riveting scenes in a handful of minutes than they could. But as
jayrebb
pointed out - story very likely wasnt what this video was about. This video was probably more about "LOOK GUYZ, YOU CAN PLAY A BLACK MAN WITH DREADS!" (while cutting back to all the devs as they look barney five type of white.)
