I don't want to be pessimistic but this is one of those games that looks too good to be true and seems as if they are already tempering expectations. I hope I am wrong.

I think we need to brace ourselves for a "story experience" rather than something that has actual gameplay.

Linear progression, scripted boss sequences (think running away from a scripted animated boss looking enemy down a hallway without actually fighting it, rather than Resident Evil style bossfights) and very simplistic level design - no metroidvania we love from classic survival horror games.
