I just went over a list of "upcoming RPGs 2024". For my POV, all of them look the same and this is without dismissing the quality of graphics, gameplay possibilities, art ect. It might because I'm a gamer who puts a lot (too much) emphasis on story and how unique it is. I miss games being more "punk", having humor, being serious, being less serious, angering moms without being perverse...

I hope you've played Disco Elysium

Exactly. That game has raised by expectation on what a game could be in this day and age. This is coming from a huge fan of Fallout I,II, NV, Planescape Torment, old adventure games ect.

I dunno, Dragon's Dogma 2 is coming out, even if it's just Dragon's Dogma Dark Arisen with updated graphics it's gonna be my Game of the Year.

Ah yes, games with good writing. Difficult to come by. Not sure why. Maybe because you can't put writing on a trailer?

The trailer is a deliberate choice of the authors on what content to put in order to sell the game and present "the idea of the game". Not only that, but a lot of trailers are in form of a presentation with audio or text (more common) by the authors, where they deliberately emphasize what they think are strong points of the game. So in fact trailers, even very short ones, can tell a lot more than it's immediately obvious.
