Reviews is there to give you an overview of the game. There are many game critics who actually gives valid information without spoiling much (e.g basic mechanics, synopsis of the story etc.) and its purpose is to inform the consumers of games they might like. A fair assessment before buying the product. However I can see your point that reviewers sometimes pick on things that others can get by. This goes double for movie critics.
Podcasts on the other hand is a different issue because sometimes they talk about things that ruined the surprise.One such example is the burning of marijuana fields in Far Cry 3. My only consolation is that I don't know the context of the mission yet but seeing it coming from a mile away will definitely damp the impact of that sequence. But I wouldn't have otherwise tried The Walking Dead or even Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors if it hadn't been for Patrick giving a good word for it on the Bombcast as I am not a big fan of adventure games myself.
I heard Final Fantasy VI has a fantastic ending where every character (even minor) has been given some form of closure. I need someone to attest to this though.
On topic: It's a jerk move but that's how the real world works. Kudos on you for grabbing the opportunity. It's like you discovered something, you patent it and you gain all the royalties.
I won't do it on my friends though I might let them in on my plan and shared some of the money so that I won't feel like a total douche.
So I just finished this fantastic game and I know it's meant to leave some interpretation to the players but there's just some things that shakes me to the very core.
First, What if it's possible to fail the puzzle at the end? Would that mean that Akane would just die/disappear?
Second, The ending cut off the last statement: "there's another logical explanation" or something like that. What was that about? Did Seven intended to deceive Junpei all along? As the game said there's some historical discrepancy if Seven is telling the truth.
These are some questions I need the answer to. I might add more after I pondered on the story some more. Any response would be greatly appreciated.
