A demo isn't a spoiler Jesus Christ, what's next, a release date leak being a spoiler?

Yup, I don't want to know when Zelda U comes out. I want to walk into a gamestop and be surprised to see it on a shelf. Do not rob me of the awe and wonder of seeing a game on a store shelf that I didn't know was out yet. Hell, i'm mad at nintendo for even announcing a new zelda game was coming out.

Spoiler

Do people think like this? I think the cult of spoiler aversion is getting a bit out of hand :/

Edit: Great, my mean sarcastic post is top of the page ;_;

 

[stargateheaven]

So the demo is completely seperate from the game..

"a fun and free final fantasy"

 

[Jawmuncher]

"Tomorrow you can play the new demo" is hardly "small time".

Different opinions. We knew a demo was going to happen fairly close to the event.

 

[Soriku]

How'd this stuff leak?

Nomura's revenge.

 

[Boke1879]

"Tomorrow you can play the new demo" is hardly "small time".

I think this is the tech demo they were talking about. It's not small time but I can't hardly be the big reveal of the event. Release date, CE info, expanding on gameplay etc I think will be the bulk of the conference

 

[Kintaro]

"Tomorrow you can play the new demo" is hardly "small time".

Judging by the video, it may not be much of a demo.

 

[Darryl M R]

This will be my first FF game, I'm looking forward to this.

 

[stryke]

lol, there are people who consider a leaked release date of an unnanounced demo at a PR event a spoiler? boo fucking hoo...

 

[DarkLordMalik]

Different opinions. We knew a demo was going to happen fairly close to the event.

We also knew that it would feature a Young Noctis and the teaser picture screamed a "dream" scenario. We also saw the Carbuncle in a dev blog post but most people assumed it was a Moogle.

The only spoilery stuff is the date, which most expected would be right after the event.

Honestly some people are taking this leak too seriously. Chill out guys =/

 

[qualitydisc]

I'm really not digging the collect-a-thon vibes in that demo clip. Looks like a character platformer, not FF. :/

 

[dragonzdogma]

Post it, I'm curious

PSA don't google Carbuncle. NSFL images.

Lol I did the same thing earlier. Can confirm

should've listen to you guys -_-

lol that's Noctis.

 

[Dragon1893]

The demo being something that isn't in the game is pretty cool, though as someone who hasn't played the first demo I'm a bit bummed about not being able to try out the combat system.

 

[Toth]

That cinematic ad...wow, that has to SE's best ad I have ever seen. The Dawn's music works perfectly here, Amano's art looks soooo good in 3D (imagine game like that!) and the 3D effect at the end making the logo.....Gold.

[Sciortino]

That's the main character of this video game.

 

[wiibomb]

A demo isn't a spoiler Jesus Christ, what's next, a release date leak being a spoiler?

anything related to that particular event, the contents, should be considered an spoiler.

but that is besides the point, I didn't want to know anything about the event before I see it later today and I just got spoiled by the thread title. This is info that should be in the thread OP, not in the thread title.

also, if you don't consider that an spoiler, that's very nice for you, but I consider it an spoiler and didn't even got the chance to decide if I wanted to see it or not

 

[Hedge]

Demo want! But considering the playable character, I wonder if there'll be combat.

[qualitydisc]

Just Noctis's nose from last year's Episode Duscae promo art. Thanks anyway tho

 

[Jawmuncher]

If they did show off something from that teased type 0 game, that would be a surprise.

 

[shinobi602]

I just make a reply here to tell the OP there is a MAJOR SPOILER in the title of the topic: demo 3/31. Please change that dude! Some of us didn't want to know that until the very event!

Does knowing a demo is coming now or 10 hours from now really make a difference? I mean really?

 

[Nirolak]

Okay, clearly putting the word spoiler in the title was too charitable, so I've updated it.

 

[Kayo Police]

Urgently waiting release date leak.

 

[Pachimari]

Woah, had no idea the young Noctis demo would release today already. I wonder what the pet is all about.

 

[Dr. Malik]

Okay, clearly putting the word spoiler in the title was too charitable so I've updated it.

Lmao good stuff

 

[dragonzdogma]

Why make it such a mystery right?

 

[Markitron]

A September release would go down nicely, July would be even better though.

 

[Blobbers]

That last part of Ad2 reminds me of when you're in Wonderland in Kingdom Hearts 1. Also, that music

based queen

 

[dragonzdogma]

LOL,
but those who have been paying attention to the ATR knew that the demo was coming at the end of march it's not spoilers it news confirmation

 

[Hippopuncher12]

Holy shit at people getting angry at a flipping demo date as a spoiler......wtf....

 

[HMD]

For once I didn't want something this big to leak :/

 

[Maniel]

A September release would go down nicely, July would be even better though.

No way square would release it in the west only a month after Star Ocean V

 

[J-Skee]

Could you at least not put the actual leaks in the title of the thread? Kind of takes away from the event now.

 

[Squire]

No way square would release it in the west only a month after Star Ocean V

It's probably November.

 

[T.O.P]

[Famassu]

So the demo is completely seperate from the game..

"a fun and free final fantasy"

Yes, we've known that for a while.

 

[DarkLordMalik]

No way square would release it in the west only a month after Star Ocean V

June - Setsuna/Star Ocean 5
September - Final Fantasy XV

Spoiler

October - Persona 5

November - Kingdom Hearts 2.8

 

[DNAbro]

It's probably November.

and watch them get decimated(in comparison) by all the heavy hitters? I'm saying September.

 

[Jawmuncher]

It's probably November.

FF is big but Nov seems like a death sentence for it. Depending on how the rest of that month plays out. They need to have no opposition with the release the week of.

It's Myst.

 

[Nirolak]

No way square would release it in the west only a month after Star Ocean V

Star Ocean's impact on Square Enix's fiscal year: Basically non-existent.

Final Fantasy XV's impact on Square Enix's fiscal year: Quite large.

I don't think they will make any consideration of this sort when deciding a date for Final Fantasy XV.

 

[Koh]

Please leak the release date. I hate how square has handled info for this game.

 

[Vashetti]

Wait, people are seriously upset about being 'spoiled' about this?

lol

 

[georly]

Does knowing a demo is coming now or 10 hours from now really make a difference? I mean really?

I think life gets a bit easier when you consider a leak to be the same as a reveal from official sources. Whether I found out about the demo from the live event, from kotaku/twitter the next morning, or 10 hours early from a chinese leak makes no difference to me. A demo is coming, that is good news, no matter when/where I get that information.

Now if you had spoiled the ending or plot twist or other 'moment' in ffxv, that'd be a different story altogether.
