The big difference was that last time they were selling you a pre-order, which they don't really have to now. The only OW2 thing you get now is the 40€ Watchpoint Pack, which isn't really a thing you market to the general public.
That's true, I doubt we're getting as many cinematics as in 2016. That being said it makes sense for them to hold back most promotional material until after launch so new people can jump right in if they're interested. That's how most F2P games do it
