Frictional Games Forum (read-only)

I feel like that's Jens' face when he viewed the thread today

He unlisted the video, not deleted it. You can still watch it if you had the link or had it in your browser.
P.S.: Jens is looking at us...

@SlenderGaffers If people dont want spoilers, then they shouldn't search for it.

This is so funny. There is NO spoiler warning on his video, and several people are blindlessly going to pre-buy the game, thinking there will be different scares, only to find themselves disappointed in the end.

Shouldn't people really have the common sense to know that something like "Walkthrough Part 1" has some degree of spoilers in it?

@ChineseRoom The video was unlisted instead of private for a couple hours. My mistake honestly, either way: sorry.



The video is now completely private.

While I fully applaud TCR for apparently implying that they don't want PDPs videos made available, it's not really their call is it? As I understand things it's Frictional who funded the development of AAMFP and who are now marketing it, etc. As Dan says on TCR's twitter:

"All of the PR, marketing and pre-release build distribution for Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs decisions are being made by @frictionalgames"

Therefore if Frictional approve of the videos presumably there's nothing that TCR can do about it (except have a long, calm chat with Frictional)?

Frictional Games ‏@frictionalgames As review copies are out, some preview material have started popping up. Spoiler-wary do best in disable internet for the coming 1.5 weeks.

You watch walkthrough part 1 of Far Cry 3, you hardly get spoiled. However, on a game like AMFP which relies on surprise, it's completely different.

After all, all these hundred thousand of people who have watched this video lack that common sense, right?

Well, another YouTuber now has the first 25 minutes of gameplay uploaded.

Presumably that's all he's allowed to show? I hope so (no, I haven't seen it but I'm sorely tempted ......).

Who else will also be uploading spoilerific gameplay footage before the game is actually released?

Place your bets ........

Yeah, that's not funny. Were all these preview LPs really worth it? Some more money in exchange for a pissed off community.
