Well Sakurai just had a direct where he literally talks about the end of FF7 and says it's 20 years old get over it. He directly talks about Aeris. The Smash stage itself is literally the last moments of FF7 with the lifestream stopping the meteor from hitting the planet. --- "This is your last dance." <cite>Blue_Inigo posted [p:948557473] in I guess FF...

Error1355 12/20/20 8:34:37 AM #11:	Blue_Inigo posted... It's clearly stated in promo material. Promo material for an entirely different game that also specifically tells people to stop watching if they don't want spoiled. We will still require spoiler tags when discussing the game and going into details on the plot. It's simply unrealistic to expect a video about a smash bros character to invalidate the requirement to protect users from being spoiled on a game. The spoiler rule is still meant to protect users who do not want to get spoiled, I see no benefit for these users by relaxing major spoilers for a game due to promotional material for a completely unrelated game. Also while we do generally use 'if it's in a trailer for the game it's not a spoiler', there are some rare cases where that doesn't suddenly change if something is a spoiler or not. The biggest example I have of that is a recent Marvel movie trailer that disclosed a major character death less than a month after the movie came out. We still moderated that because the spoiler rule was intended to protect people, and users were trying to use the 'loophole' of promotional material to specifically spoil it for people who haven't see it yet. So really, still use spoiler tags. It's super easy and is courteous towards your fellow GameFAQers. =P --- Welcome home, shed your skin and expose your bones.
