That literally doesn't answer my question but okay

Then you can't read.

 

As I said, and others. Your internet history knows what we do. One glance at anything related, cookies take over. 

 

It's quite clear dude.

Then you could've at least made an attempt to answer the original question in any way that wasn't sarcasm

I mean if you wanna blame the internet algorithms and then act sarcastic about it that's fine but I still think that a lot of the responsibility is on the player who doesn't wish to encounter spoilers to refrain from looking up anything about the game.

And I think otherwise, as clearly cookies do exactly as I said. Every site comes with warning on these too, lol. 

 

All opinion dude. But many offered their reasons and you refuse to even acknowledge their opinion, hence the cynical reply. Fell completely on deaf ears as it would be.

 

Some can't avoid the internet for many reasons and you completely ignored that. So sarcasm it is if you don't wish to read and discuss.

I acknowledge their opinion, I just think they're fools for looking up anything related to the game before they finish it, spoilers or otherwise. Like I said before, what could you be possibly looking up about the game when you haven't finished it yet that isn't a spoiler, other than what you mentioned earlier, trailers.

Again you fail yourself here dude.

 

As explained, just watching a GTA video is enough, lol.

 

Literally zero RDR2 info there, yet because it's made by the same company, cookies does the rest. 

 

Anyway, moving on. Pointless bickering now. Peace out.

But then comes the question; why are you looking up Red Dead videos before the game is even finished? If you're looking up walkthroughs, you're spoiling the challenge of doing it yourself. If you're looking up where to find gold, you're spoiling the challenge of, again, exploring yourself and finding it. Either way you're spoiling the game for yourself before you finish it, plotwise or otherwise.

 

I'm sorry, but I'm very confused about what you mean, because I explicitly said I haven't looked up any videos about RDR 2 in at least a year, if not longer. And that includes trailers, as I've watched them directly on Rockstar's site. I've gone out of my way to avoid seeing anything at all that could even slightly spoil anything, outside of the trailers which I'm sure we've ALL watched.

I don’t remember you mentioning you haven’t looked up any red dead videos in a year in the original post of yours I quoted. But even then I guess it just goes back to the original point I made; “if you don’t want to get spoiled, stay off the internet”, YouTube algorithms be damned.

I did mention that, but I just think it's really not fair for people to be expected to just cease all internet use for an indefinite period just so that assholes can make some money with clickbaity crappy YouTube videos. The thing is, I agree with you to an extent about people spoiling the game for themselves in terms of watching walkthroughs or looking up things like how to find secrets, etc. but even with that, I would just say it all comes down to the fact that there are tons of different play styles out there, and it's up to the player to decide what they actively seek out, even if they are sort of cheating themselves out of the experience. 

 

All I am saying is that people should be able to go on YouTube, Facebook, or wherever without worrying about a major plot point being spoiled for them in the headline or title of a video. I know youtube's algorythm is partially to blame too, because as Lonely-Martin said, even if you are watching GTA videos, it can still suggest RDR videos too you as well. I get that, but all I'm saying is, does it really have to be so hard for people to just not be asshats for once and not intentionally spoil things for everyone? I feel like a tiny bit of common decency shouldn't be asking too much of people.
