Spoilers are unavoidable

God fucking dammit dude. I feel like EVERY time I try and play a story-driven game I always pick up on some kind of spoiler on accident. I'll Google search it, go to Wikipedia for the review summaries, briefly glance at Steam reviews, or just by osmosis I will accidently gloss over some key detail that makes the experience a little less fresh. I just finished a genuinely great game but I ruined one of the twists for myself, so what should've been a really climatic third act was just a little less special. God DAMMIT. I don't seek this shit out, it just happens and I feel like the unluckiest fucking gaymer in the world for it. Sometimes plot points in a video game become memes that people spread. Hell, I'm doing it right now with the Evangelion picture, though it's still sort of vague.

Do I have to read books or something to avoid spoilers? It's like I can't do any research on a piece of popular media without this happening. It sucks.

Spoilers can't ruin a good story

Just stay off places that can possibly have spoilers. Then when you're done with whatever, you can go anywhere.

>I'll Google search it, go to Wikipedia for the review summaries, briefly glance at Steam reviews
are you retarded?

why the fuck do you do research on something you don't want spoiled?
experience it for yourself dumb fuck
dataminers and faggots like you that consume their leaks killed videogames

Sounds like your own fault.

And consider your enjoyment of [thing] would be ZERO if you had not "heard enough information to make me play the game"
Either waste time plating games you're unsure you'll enjoy
Or learn games to such a degree that you KNOW you will enjoy them - But you have already come to know them.

Bummer.

And the dumbest fucking retard of the year award goes to…

>he thinks reading reviews before buying a game is retarded

The journey is more important the destination. I have found knowing the big twists in a narrative don't really change my enjoyment of the overall game.

IRL spoilers: You will die, and that will be the end

i dont need someone else to tell me if ill like a game or not im not an npc

You need to aim for short single player games. Not only is it quick to beat so you can do it in one setting, you can refund it if you don't like it. Nobody talks about Get Even or The Pedestrian so I was able to enjoy both because the premise of the gameplay for both looked interesting enough. You can also indulge in other, more obscure stuff.

>caring about spoilers
grow up

Just play the game on release and without using the internet in the middle of it. Not too hard.

>he's either baiting or happy to waste money on bad video games

if you aren't able to tell a good videogame from a bad videogame by:
the developer
the genre
or what makes it unique
then you are retarded, but no videogame in the last 7 years has been truly unique

No video game has ever been unique.

>he's psychic and never makes mistake
I wonder how many good games you've missed because of "muh developer"

Oh yeah i am sure missing out on destiny 2 here
goddamn what a loss

Torrent the game first you fucking buffoon.

Go play elevator action and come back to me.
You can start sucking my dick then

>I'll Google search it, go to Wikipedia for the review summaries, briefly glance at Steam reviews,
I think I figured out why you keep getting spoiled you fucking idiot.

>has never read a mystery novel

>search online for character from specific game
>first result
>character name [game] death
