Random Thought: Spoilers

Spoilers are the enemy. Spoilers are feared. Spoilers rhymes with boilers and boilers can get pretty hot when they're not taken care of... sort of like spoilers.

I just wonder if there is, or ever will be, a solid opinion on when spoilers are okay. One month after release? Three months after release? Six months? A year?

I, personally, don't really care. If a review spoils a few things, I am fine with that as I wouldn't be reading a review if I was that invested in what can or cannot be spoiled. I may be a rare person who doesn't read a single review until after I beat a game, but I'd rather be able to make my own opinion on a game without anyone else's opinion in the back of my head. I just get annoyed when people make such a fuss about being spoiled when most of the time it is their own fault for reading/listening about a game more than the time they spend playing the game (if at all).

I draw the line when it gives away critical plot line moments, but apart from that I'm pretty cool with most things.

And yes, I hold my hand up when I say if I am spoiled, I blame myself for reading it. I suppose the temptation of knowing more about a game before it is released is sometimes overwhelming.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster929d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
