This teaser did such a good job of teasing the game.
Oh wait, no it didn't.
The opportunity to get my attention came and went, and they fucked it up.
Bravo Squeenix, bravo.

I thought the graphics looked a bit janky, although the shadow effects were nice :)

It's not much of a trailer, but we've seen video for this already, so it's not that big a deal.  Voice-acting sounds solid and emotional, which is about all this trailer was highlighting.  I'd say it was a success at that. 
 
So for the time being, Nier remains on my watch list.

Isn't this the game that is going to have a tranny as its main character? I like me some futanari themed characters getting into my games, so I'm all for it! Sounds like it will have some good VO work so that's nice. Just sad its only coming out for the consoles.

Before seeing this I was kind of interested in what this game was going to be. Now, not so much.

Never heard of this and was totally into it until the "NOTHING IS AS IT SEEMS" splash.  Now I am only sorta into it.
 
Where is a book's ass, and its head, and how does one go in the other?  These are the things I want to discover.

This sounds like what would happen if a very Japanese company decided to write dialog that sounded like a Scorsese movie, even though they've never actually watched a Scorsese movie all the way through.
 
Oh, right, that's what this is.

I wonder if Nier got its dialogue ideas from Rogue Warrior.

Wowwwwwww. That was almost unbearable. Sounded like they pulled that voice actor straight from some morning cartoon on Nickelodeon.

Hmm. I liked that, though it could be because the voice sounds good.

That game won't be released outside Japan. The rest of the world gets (probably) the same game with a different main character.

Well...that told me nothing about the game. I know teasers are by their very nature vague, but this is just absurd. And I feel that the game hates me now.

I know about the game so I won't ruin the reason for the "nothing is at it seems" part, but I have to say that I am digging the audio.  I've listened to it several times now.  Why?  I'm  not sure though I guess it's because I find girls swearing kinda funny because I so rarely get to hear it in real life.

Indeed. Teasers are meant to have such an effect. I don't understand all the hate. It was great.  EDIT: I knew I heard her somewhere. This is totally Rise Kujikawa and Raspberyl. "
Ah, I thought the voice sounded familiar.

This trailer from TGS says otherwise. Keine is clearly in it and this voice teaser makes it even more apparent given that another effect of that demon possessing her is her foul mouth.

As I understand it, the man/lady character is actually a woman who was possessed by a male demon and transformed into a hermaphrodite, and is none-too-pleased about the fact that she now has a package.
