Wow, an informative trailer with an easy to understand voice over.
Yeah, Teardown has had an issue all along in selling what "the game" is, despite all the cool tech and fun mess-around mechanics. So it's smart that they did a trailer focused on the missions and structured gameplay to get into alongside the sandbox. And they didn't oversell it by making it seem too cool or cutting it as like a thriller game or a cinematic experience. It's Teardown, there's cool stuff to blow up, and there's missions which will challenge your blow-shit-up skills. Enjoy it!
It's still a tough sell as a general consumer game, though. I don't think this trailer really evoked the challenge or danger of how missions might work out, and aside from the occasional cops the trailer makes the world feel lonely and barren when it's not being blown up. Also, you've got to buy it to mess around in it, whereas some other sandbox construction/deconstruction games have free-to-play selling systems (for better or for worse) to let players get into it and see that it's for them. As a sandbox, it's a no-brainer to try and to do cool shit with if that's your addiction. Otherwise, I don't think they opened a wide enough entrance door to get players into Teardown. However, people do like fucking around with creations and explosions, so hopefully that's enough to hook players in.
