True, trailers can be misleading (the last of us 2 amirite? 👀), so it makes sense to be on the fence a bit. I heard a lot of different things about The Medium. I don't remember if it was that or Observer that youtuber Max Derrat who does Silent Hill videos (who's opinion I trust, he's great with Silent Hill, a true fan) said was actually pretty good and went over the game, and it made him confident in the remake despite people's skepticism.
But, in the end, I would agree, we have to play for ourselves to know if it did the original game justice.
