I mean, I'd say a credible example of gameplay would be a fair minimum. Doesn't have to be a trailer or anything, just seeing that the gameplay exists, looks (even subjectively) like it could evolve into something fun, and is more than just a flashy scripted trailer to collect preorders.

You said it better than I could have.

Something that's not just walking around from place to place and occasionally hopping on the back of a flying creature. Some combat, maybe some dialog and how a quest/mission works in the game.

As it stands right now, and as someone else put it, it looks like a cross between Valheim and ARK. I just can't get hyped for something like this when I've played plenty of other extremely similar games tons of times before.

I mean, my point was more their last "gameplay trailer" was actually a scripted cinematic with many of the features still not implemented to this day. If everything shown here is actual gameplay from the same game they plan to sell, then yeah, I can see the potential.
