It's hard to tell if it looks good to me. It certainly doesn't have any jump scares or anyone screaming, which is a plus.
The narration was obnoxious. I might see it.

The trailer is a bit vague. Who is this person, what are they doing there and why should we care?

I think it's supposed to raise questions, though. It looks absolutely creepy.

Just like the beginning of the game!

It's explained at the start of the game though.
Games are different to film. The Amnesia trailer worked well because, since games are an interactive medium, the very thought of stalking around a dark haunted castle as a nameless faceless protagonist is enough to give anyone the shits. Even though the story is a very important part of the game, story is not the only feature of videogames and as such the trailer could show off other things such as game mechanics & atmosphere. But with films story & characters are the only things they have going for them, so it's important to showcase these when making a trailer for them. The Presence trailer barely shows either; all I know about it is that there's somebody in the middle of somewhere and I'm not even sure what they're doing there in the first place. All good movie trailers at least give a hint to the plot so people know who's in it and what's going on, and then decide for themselves whether they should watch it to find out more. The Presence trailer gives me very little reason to care; it's like a trailer to Amnesia consisting of only the title.

Looks like it's gonna satisfy mirror fanboys.
To me, looks like a Descent 2 shit.
