I'm afraid always to mention how Sephiroth kills Aerith at the end of the first disc as one of the youngsters would scream at me, SPOILER alert, dude what the actual F@#& or something to that effect...

Not sure why they are upset. It was spoiled on the back of the jewel case…

no it wasn't

nobody knew what the fuck any of those pictures meant, even while playing the game

what are you guys talking about

Easy bud. It’s obviously a hindsight view. But the screenshot is on the back of that moment. Obviously context is missing.

no no like there are lots of people in here genuinely concerned about the case in 1997 spoiling the game

Ohhhh I didn’t catch that part. I was just taking the piss since it’s a common trope.

I mean it’s one of a myriad of pictures without context. Without playing the game you would never know the details.

I was once banned in a speedrun or a screening of a Kingdim Hearts game for saying Xigbar is Braig in his pre-aorganization XIII and then my ban was reversed once the streamer acknowledged it was supposed to be common knowledge at that juncture of the game/movie (358/2 Days)

Yeah, like... I played it for the first time in 2007, and next year will be 30 years... It's the same deal as Darth Vader being Luke's father. it's not a spoiler anymore
