youtubers are vultures. very disappointed in people like Vaati.
"JusT dOnT wAtCh" isn't always good enough, that spoiler tag (if there even is one) is not going to stop a troll from spoiling anything remotely spoilable.

other people will watch and they will go out of their way to spoil things in other avenues, such as these forums.

trolling is a thing, so don't act like it isn't, guys.

I've glanced at the whole list of new videos on YouTube, none of them have spoilers on their titles, and I've also read all titles in here, none of which have any spoiler of major significance. Honestly... what is there to spoil? Especially from a 3 hour, limited and curated section of the whole thing designed specifically so that the info in them would reveal as little as possible, since is part of a marketing move, for a game with a story that needs to be pieced together anyways, and where boss placement is by far one of the least important things to know beforehand.

Also, if you get spoiled you aren't really missing out on anything. You still get the thing; you even get it early. And if your fear is of missing out on the experience of going through it blind.... why in the blue hell are you here? GTFO! Stop visiting the garbage heaps that are Steam forums, Reddit, and YouTube, especially its comment section. Simple enough.

Is very easy not to watch any of them, and is also very easy to stop going to places where people will be spoiling the ever-living ♥♥♥♥ out of anything they can. The game's not even that far out, all you need to do is get your permanently online ass out of here for like 3 weeks.

Dunno why people make such a big deal about spoilers or about this. And OP, the only FOMO I can see here is the fear of missing out on cool threads you might want to participate because someone might come in with the hot spoilers. And again, is oh so easy to avoid and not care at all about the very unimportant to the overall full experience spoilers that people might just blurt out from such a limited cut of the whole DLC. The phrase getting your panties in a bunch comes to mind.

The only video I watched had a spoiler warning after about 10 minutes in it, and I stopped watching after that. All I was really interested in was the leveling system, and they didn't go into it, all he mentioned was some legacy dungeons at the beginning of the DLC.
