Text To Spoil or Not to Spoil? [KH3D] (Assignment for English class)

[ChildOfTerra_FriendOfRiku 135]

We had to do a parody of one of Hamlet's soliloquies, and as I've been debating whether or not to just watch a Japanese walkthrough with English subs, this is the result.

 

To wait, or not to wait? That is the question.

Whether tis nobler as a gamer to wait

Until the North American release

Or to seek out news on the Kingdom Hearts Wiki

And thus to spoil the ending. To search--to watch--

And learn--and by to watch I mean I find

A walkthrough of the Japanese version on YouTube

With English subtitles. Tis a way to learn

The story which I seek! To look--to spoil.

To spoil, perchance to find plot twists; ah, there's the rub!

For if I learn the plot twists, it will not be the same

As when I play the game for the first time

With the English voice actors. There's the thing

That makes it so much better to be patient.

For who would wait six months while all the while,

Japanese kids play, walkthroughs are posted,

The wiki is updated, bloggers chat,

The internet abounds with news and

People easily translate Japanese,

When one could learn the entire story

In one Google search? Who would wait so long,

For months to pass while English is recorded,

But because the impact will not be the same--

For spoken words are stronger than subtitles

For drama and emotions--we hold back

And rather wait for the NA release

Instead of settling for subtitles?

Thus drama does make whiners of us all,

And thus the excitement for the Japanese release

Is not as great because of the wait for the North American,

And people who planned to seek out walkthroughs

With this desire for surprise change their minds

And decide against it! Calm you down!

Whenever I watch the trailers, I can read the subs so much faster than the lines are said it's not even funny. If I do a game like that there's no way I'll get the emotional impact.

Impatience is a deadly sin of mine.

 

I won't be able to resist.

Lol I know its from hamlet, but while reading this all I could think of was Phineas and Ferb's "The Princess Sensibilities"

[Obi-wan 411]

I'm gonna spoil myself after all of the crap I've been through. It will be worth it though. It makes me wonder what i'll do for KH3 though.
