[KH2 spoils] rock impacts important part of body used to cover hole in neck

If the thing you crave is shock and discovery and novelty, the "spoiling" of one or even a dozen works per day means you still have an unfathomably deep bulk from which you could draw something you don't know anything about, but which is still super high quality and worth your while.
Your rationale is really that because there is so much stuff out there, what's the matter if you get some spoiled?

Regardless of the age of a game, it's a bit of a shitty move to put a spoiler/fake spoiler in the title. I don't think its too much to ask to not do that.

The OP probably thought this was just gonna be a fun little thread where we make fun of KH and post dumb video games scenes.

Little did they know...

Man, I remember when I was first playing KHII with friend (who had already played it), and I totally thought the death scene was fake and Goofy was gonna come back, but he swore up and down that no, Goofy was actually completely totally dead. He was so persuasive about it that I ended up believing him and then started getting really pissed at the game for killing Goofy LMAO
Then, of course, I continue playing for like five more minutes and got the worst PSYCH owning of my life.

I really don't get the big deal about asking for stuff to not be directly in the thread title.

Can OP edit the title? No

Should OP get everybody shitting on him for what is literally nothing at all? No
 
As I've said I believe:

1.) Time should not be a factor, for reasons in my OP

2.) Anyone who has a plot point spoiled has just suffered a spoiler. It does not matter if it affects the overall themes and message of the story. Fuck this.

Spoilers ahead:

You will die one day, but right before you die, your entire life, and every time you whined about getting spoiled on some years and years old IP on an online forum, will flash before your eyes. In that instance you will finally realize that your life, that of single human or even the entire human species is insignificant, without purpose and unlikely to change in the totality of existence, no matter how many spoilers have been marked or unmarked.

The game is old as shit and has been re-released a bunch of times. The time for spoiler-sensitivity for this is over. If you haven't played it by now, you're never gonna play it anyway.

The original game might be 12 years old, but it just got re-released. Some people might want to try to jump in the franchise with the re-master.

It's a completely pointless scene. Unless you're 5, I'm pretty sure you'd know that Goofy doesn't die in Kingdom Hearts.

I think the main point of the person you're responding to is that nothing to you is not nothing to everyone. While NeoGAF doesn't seem to obligate any action in this particular case a little bit of consideration would be a generally nice thing to do with no down sides that I'm aware of.

Yeh.

I put more value on accruing knowledge (even garbage pop culture knowledge) than on accruing "unsullied" Media Experiences (especially garbage pop culture experiences). Every spoiler you read contributes to the first without meaningfully detracting from your ability to pursue the second.

Just witness all the delightful Goofy memes I got to see because I didn't sweat the Kingdom Hearts "spoiler" in this thread. If I was trying to keep myself clean, I would've missed all this joy. The memes are all better now that I know that someone, somewhere, once thought that sloppily fake-killing Goofy in his video game would be an earnest emotional beat.

I'm really not seeing how the kneejerk reactions are shitting on OP. They're not personally insulting him or anything.

If anyone's getting shit on in this thread, it's the people who posted their minor kneejerk reactions. Should they get shit on for making a single reactionary post?

Lots of KH diss being laid in this thread, and that ain't right. I like this moment purely for Mickey's "shit is now ON" face more than anything.
