One thing I'd like to mention: Generally, I love how the wind affects the vegetation, it's a big part of what makes the sceneries so alive. But. In some cases the speed and the amplitude (?) of the swaying is just way too high, which makes it look a bit weird at times. I imagine it can be toned down, though.
 
Feedback on the trailer

You could have delivered a far more stronger approach by scrapping the informative narration, because the narration really doesn't fit well. Not because the narrator herself but rather when we have essentially completely new game play content to stare on, the focus should be on the game itself and its settings and therefore adding a voice "outside" of the Witcher universe doesn't blend well (you are too busy looking at everything and feeling the ambience of the game and then, there's a voice that simply put, doesn't belong there).

Essentially there's two strong approaches (Probably more, but this is what I could think of at the moment).

1. Add all explanation in text form (as you've done before) and compensate the actual game play trailer with ambience in game music to add the setting for the viewer on the world and it's atmosphere while still being informative to new players. This will have all visualization as well as everything we'll hear to be completely "in game" and therefore adds a more "funny feeling in the lower region" reaction.

2. Add it more in a poetic style, using actual in game voices, similar to how the "Sword of destiny" was done with Vesemir talking. This keep narration and information regarding the game fun while on the same time not breaking the immersion on the world setting.

If you really want "outgame" narration I recommend the dev-diaries where you address each element in a more "casual" settings similar to how you did it in Witcher 2 and use this method to introduce new players to the franchise.

That was...epic!Perfect trailer,although it was a little bit spoilerish at times.

The game seems so great that i cannot believe it exists.I don't want to watch any more footage,in fear of failing to live up to the hype,like so many other games..But i cannot resist!

The graphics were fantastic.I hope that ps4 will look relatively close like this.

Also,i was surprised that the Wild Hunt was not mentioned.
