Watched like 2 minutes. Going to try and watch as little as possible of this game.

Too often games lose their "wonder" by seeing too much. I feel the X did that. They showed too much of the unique areas. Coupled with the story being less engaging it just didn't wow me as Chronicles did.

Makes me think of some "let's plays' of Xenoblade Chronicles. People doing those I feel can't enjoy the game as much as a person alone. They enter a new area and people in comments, even though trying to be spoiler free will say stuff like "You should see the place at night." thus the lets player will do a time adjust to nighttime. Sure it looks cool, but the person would have missed out on two things. The gradual change from day to night as well as the surprise of it actually being different.

That's what watching too much is like for me. Feels like I know what's coming and loses the wonder/surprise I may have achieved myself.

Did the same with Metroid Samus Returns. They were about to spoil the new evolution of a Baby Metroid and I was like "nope !", closed the live stream. 

Yea, but even so, your comment is still a spoiler.

Now I know as well as you do that there is a new metroid evolution. Don't really care, cause I don't plan on playing that game. But is sucks these days how much in the name of marketing things get spoiled.

Take Batman v Superman movie. I personlly think the movie would have gotten at least 10% higher RT score had the final trailer not shown doomsday or the batman/superman/wonder woman interaction. Sure the trailer was awesome, but it basically spoiled teh whole premise of the movie of Batman v superman. We all saw how they will team up and who the final threat will be.  They made a 'cool' trailer that they thought would get more peopel into seats in the theaters, yet in the end spoiled too much. Too many movies do that these days.
