FFXV Spoiler Policy Discussion.

[HarLea Quinn 26,501]

  Hey everyone! After taking it into consideration-we've decided to implement a spoiler policy on the site for FF15. There have been huge leaks going around regarding the ending and various other things about the game. We know that many of you have been waiting for the game since 2006 and we don't want anyone's experience to be ruined by accident or on purpose. All FF15 related content whether it be story or gameplay related will now go into 1 single discussion thread. This includes news.

As staff, we also want your input. How long would you like the policy to be? Inside the thread itself-you may talk about the game using spoiler tags for certain things. How do you think the policy should work? I personally recommend that when you post your thoughts about your experience with the game-you state the chapter you are on, followed by your thoughts in a spoiler tag. A spoiler is considered anything that you didn't know until a) coming across a spoiler on the internet. and or b) playing the game yourself.

 

Let us know your thoughts and vote for the length of the policy. It shall be implemented as soon as possible. Thank you!

Love the tags! . 

 

(Really great writing too :wink: )

I disagree there, no one will have it finished on the day and if people want to keep visiting the site others may be posting spoilers they've heard from word of mouth. The first few weeks of the release will be the worst possible time for spoilers.

1-2 month if i have to pick an option but personaly i think 2-3 weeks is enough

[A Heartless Nobody 120]

I, and probably a number of other people, won't be getting the game until sometime after launch, so keep I'd like it to be kept up for a while.

Was it Dream Drop Distance 3D where it took 2 months for the policy to drop? I think that was a decent amount of time. But considering the massive amounts of content in FFXV, maybe another month?

 

Also, DDD was released over the spring/summer. FFXV is releasing near the end of November, close to the holidays where some people will have to wait and get it. I already know a few amount of people on here that are planning on getting it for Christmas.

 

Sometime around the month of Feburary sounds reasonable.

"It's a close tie so far between 1-2 months and 2-4 months with 4-6 months lagging behind. Will 1-2 months pace ahead? Or will the spoiler policy last for 2 to 4 months? Find out next time on Dragon Ball Z"

 

1-2 month if i have to pick an option but personaly i think 2-3 weeks is enough

 That may be cool for some but if you've got work or school then you may not be done until mid January or even February.

Yeah stay away from gamefaqs and any facebook comment sections and twitter.

In my opinion, 2-4 months sounds reasonable. Not too early, not too late either. Imagine if this is to be the case with KH3 also in the future.

You're right. Sorry. I could've gave it more thought. 

[MythrilMagician 6,963]

dontbeajerklulz is the best tag ever

 

At most 3 or 4 months I'd say.

[Steeghs 56]

for me i say 1-2 moths.

reason think that 3-4 moths is to long for me.

[Clouded Sun 1,232]

I'm likely gonna get spoiled anyway waiting for the PC release

 

A month max is reasonable, but spoilers should be tagged

on every topic until the PC release until about 2-6 months after release.

[PrinceNoctis 1,011]

Considering that Christmas vacations will be coming after the release date and that people who bought the game will probably play it during the Holidays, I say 1-2 months is reasonable.
