Nero Kunivas 3,046 Posted March 26, 2015 You would not believe how often this occurs. You know, when websites which have absolutely nothing to do with Kingdom Hearts or Gaming in general post False News Articles claiming many things about Kingdom Hearts III. ChristianPost, Kpopstarz and many others are the main culprits in this spreading of utter lies and baseless theories such as Release Dates, Features in the game, Worlds being featured, Characters, Keyblades, Story, hell even it's Platforms! A video from TheGamersJoint (Aka: Cynical) shows just how stupid these websites can be: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NYmV_mBxaJ4 So please, I implore all of you, only check for News for KHIII from reliable sources such as here. I know that we're on the website to begin with but still, doesn't prevent us from seeing such false info and believing it to be true and then posting here, I'm sure it's probably happened before. That is all. 10 Ekbergbor, Yuya Sakaki, DChiuch and 7 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yuya Sakaki 5,212 Posted March 26, 2015 Dude, as soon as I saw the title of the thread I just KNEW you'd link Cynical's video. (I just might be a Cynical Fanboy...) But yeah, 'tis true. Only get your info from KH13 or KHInsider, as he said in the video. And of course there are other reliable places where the news comes from in which the staff of this site relay to us on here. Keep it up, staff! You guys are working well! Peace! 1 Nero Kunivas reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just wish these sites would get their heads out of their rears and actually report on their own stuff or if they're going to report on Video Games, actually do it well! Those websites are rubbish, it's just what they do. They have zero creditability. Indeed, Sora, indeed. Just utter, utter rubbish, pure and simple. And Clean.

atheist123 583 Posted March 26, 2015 A PC port would be pretty sweet though lol. But it seems unlikely... Maybe FFXV releasing on PC would be believable, but not for 2-3 years after release. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nero Kunivas 3,046 Posted March 26, 2015 K-KHInsider?! I never said I liked KHInsider. "These sites keep posting false information... I'm going to draw a lot of attention to that and give them views. Surely that'll stop this from happening!" Hatok...while I can be Sceptical myself, I don't agree with that. Drawing attention to this issue has the sole intent to stop it. I drew attention to it to help reduce it just like Cynical did with his Video. Both exist to warn people to keep away from such sites. Besides, if you're told a site is shady, abuses ads and has false information, would YOU go on it? In fact, would ANYONE go on it then? It's really to assist those who don't know their way around the Internet and help them know what's a Reliable Source and what isn't. I'm not doing it to be a View Whore and neither is Cynical, we just want to help people. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I feel that if I at least make an effort to stop it or at least reduce it, I've done something helpful. I heard about this issue from Cynical but I didn't go on the Website, I came here and made a Topic warning people who might get lead astray, hopefully preventing several others from making the mistakes others did. You don't need to actually visit the Website to know what's going on if there are Videos and Topics such as this which show just how scummy and malicious this Sites can be just to get Views. However, it's not my fault if they decide to ignore me and visit these sites and drink up their poison, that's their problem. 1 Forever reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Otherwise you're playing into their hands and encouraging other sites to do the same the only way to 'stop' something like that would be if it was proved to not work, then they'd try something else.

But since tehre will always be people ready to get mad and share, they don't have to worry about it But I am sharing it in a negative light. Aside from Movies and Video Games, who really wants to see something bad? In fact, anything that's Shady is quickly Panned and avoided by people who hate this sort of crap happening. Shady Practices are NEVER approved by anyone aside from the fools who committed the act in the first place and if these people who see this Topic and Cynical's Video are smart, they'll follow suit and stay away. And besides, there's something called AdBlock Plus. Block the Ads, stop the Revenue. So that way if they happen to come across these sites that aren't on their Whitelist, they won't get their Ad Revenue so no support is gained. And for those who don't have it, use their brain (Most of the time) and don't visit the site and take our word for it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shana09 5,769 Posted March 26, 2015 I can't stress this enough, take everything that is not confirmed directly by Square Enix with a grain of salt. You can like the rumor or hate it, but don't act like its confirmed because it is not. 2 Exiblade7 and Nero Kunivas reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For this, Bad Publicity is Bad Publicity, nothing more, nothing less. The only people now who would visit those sites are fools to be blunt who did not heed my words or Cynicals.

NO!" *Not exact reaction, if someone from KHinsider is here pls dont kill me :C 1 Soofi reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
