Fire Might be a Theme of Some Sort
A consistent theme throughout all three trailers is the appearance and/or alluding to fire and burning. Trailer #1 sees Morgan looking over at some kind of fiery aftermath. In trailer #2, he is seen walking away from a burning building. And finally, in trailer #3, a speech about fire sets the tone for the whole trailer. The speech doesn’t make a whole lot of sense, at least not yet, but there are certainly lots of references to fire in all three trailers.
What does it actually mean? It’s hard to say right now, but the two obvious points jump out: fire could be a metaphorical reference to the end of the wild west, as it comes burning and crashing down when the government slowly starts to wrestle control away. Or, it could be literal; these scenes and references to fire could be hinting to a fiery climax that takes place at some point in the game.
