it's just such a weird thing to ban, it's not like the full game got leaked and you can download and play it for free, it's just some cutscenes. it's like if we banned discussion of the panama papers because they weren't obtained with the owners' consent

besides that, if we're posting from YouTube or Imgur and so on, we're not the ones hosting it. I don't know that SA has any liability there

Or if we banned LP’s that were created using emulators and other legally questionable materials.

Carly shook her glass, willing the ice to melt. "You still haven't told me what the mission is."

She leaned forward. "We are going to assassinate the bad men of Hollywood."

I have to believe this is due in part to the controversial nature of the leaked gameplay. Like if some cutscenes from FF7R got spoilered a couple months beforehand some people might be pissed, but a lot would be saying "this looks awesome can't wait."

I'm guessing this has some super traumatic background and isn't just cute, because this world sucks.

Ff7 was actually first datamined when a demo that wasn't publically available got downloaded and leaked. Nobody said anything about people linking to stuff.

It just feels weird the line is drawn here because there isn't much different. You're allowed to post ripped content from an unauthorized leak of a demo but not THIS unauthorized content.

Not to mention people post leaks from people breaking NDAs regularly. There isn't really any logic here especially since they are allowing discussion of the leaks but without being able to link it just means people are either asked to seek it out themselves or only go off secondhand info which is actively misleading. (See "Abby is trans" stuff)

Actually that's more of an issue of learning things being considered the devil in American culture. Americans, for the most part, hate learning new poo poo, with a passion.

Technically those did get spoiled a week and a half early because Europe and Australia shipped out mail order copies way early but then they were firm on the NA release.

Square was merking links left and right, copyright claiming youtube, and tried to keep wikipedia etc from being updated. But it was totally fine to post links here.

But people are being real babies about people saying it's bad so I guess that's the difference. FF7R was clearly really good.

If you post spoilers in spoiler tags you are admitting to viewing prohibited content. Please refrain from doing so.
