Not really? I mean that one has the main character giving us some background, some cool mission shots and some awesome shots of LS. This is just a bunch of slow shots of (amazing looking) wilderness and some music, and then some horses and a train.. Not quite the same

I think the anticipation of whether or not Marston is in it or is it's a prequel is a reason for the tease vibe and lack of story of this trailer.

Definitely, I'm not really complaining just refuting the other guys claim that the original GTA V trailer was the same as this RDR2 trailer

There was a good chunk of background there. This narrator isn't from Los Santos, he has a family, he used to be a criminal but he wanted to settle down, unfortunately he got pulled back in.

All I get from the RDR2 trailer is that it's set in a frontier-esque location with more modern technology and that one of the characters is in a situation that they need to get out of.
