If they're not actually killing your interest then do they really ruin your gaming experience? At all?
I've decided to create this thread because of what I saw in the other Death Stranding thread. People were afraid of seeing some spoilers in some youtube thumbnails like it's was going to ruin their entire experience or something like that.
I personally don't mind spoilers. I've played and finished Yakuza 6 first then I've Jumped into Yakuza 0 next and I'm enjoying the game. Had playing Yakuza 6 before Yakuza 0 hampered my expectations on the game? Hell no!
Did you lost interest into buying the Resident Evil 2 Remake knowing the Leon and Claire still managed to defeat William Birkin and escape the Raccoon City? Hell no.
Are you going to lose your interest into buying Death Stranding just because you saw a spoiler about the story on Youtube?
My point is: You shouldn't be afraid about knowing a spoiler or two about the story of the game you want to play. Even three spoilers, or even four ...five... fifteen ... let's make it fifty. If you are so losing interest about playing a game because you know one thing or two about the story of the game because it was spoiled to you on YT then you should thank the guy who did that because that showed you that the game is not that good enough for you to play just because you believe you need to play that game blindly. Those who decided to play games blinded are the ones mostly likely to get scammed. Example: Metal Gear Solid 2. Don't you think it was better to know you're not supposed to play with Solid Snake the entire game and you were going to play with a rookie called Raiden instead? People would be become less pissed about the game at that time knowing about that fact beforehand. It doesn't mean people were not going to buy the game regardless.
Some GAF people always showed concerns about spoilers but I think they never bothered themselves to explain their fear of knowing something about the story of the game beforehand.
So please tell me GAF your fears and why you think they are valid.
