I was gonna say, games been in development for some time from concept to actually making the game itself. If there were story leaks at least some would be known by now.
I was spoiled for TLOU, and that didn't take away from the experience in any way. Tacky it might be, Naughty Dog games are well and truly about the journey and not the destination. I'd argue it's their skill with crafting ambience and inspiring feelings that has made them so popular - never the storybeats themselves. Knowing that X happens to Ellie, and Y happens to Joel means little without the build-up.

Seriously, lol. If it were some major issue, wouldn't the spoilers already be leaking?
It's not like they're still making up the story now.
I mean someone on the inside could have already spoiled it already if they wanted to. How does this change it?
We're on a video game forum, why are we gate keeping something OP cares about?
I'm afraid I or people I know will die from this virus
It's a game, it'll come out in September/ October imo or just release alongside with PS5

It's like, sure, I'm very worried that my grandfather was diagnosed with Covid-19 today but I'm also really worried that I'll hear spoilers for this game. I'm not sure which potential outcome is worse here!
Cuz we're going through a pandemic and there's way better things to be concerned about than being spoiled by a video game
if you get spoiled you can still enjoy the game. If whatever the spoiler is, is the only selling point it's shit anyway
it's embarrassing manbaby shit
also you're using gate keeping wrong

You can be concerned about both at the same time. Its not like OP is saying fuck them kids I only care about spoilers.
I'm using gate keeping correctly. You're basically saying he can't express concern about something unless its a serious thing like the virus. Again, its a video game forum, we can talk about video games.
Nah. These are such minor concerns to be voiced during this they should be ashamed
Lol why would it even be spoiled it's been in the works for this long with no leaks it's not like the employees that have been working on it all these years are just gonna spoil it
Until the game went gold and goes to printing and sent to warehouses, I don't think we have to worry about leaks, and by then, it's the same with any other game. It's not like Sony is printing the game now and it'll stay in warehouses until whenever the new release date will be
People have been very disingenuous as of late, using spoilers as a guise for selfishness. I'm not saying that this OP is doing this, or all of that talk is invalid, but some of it is so obvious. It's like we haven't dealt with staggered releases for the past 20 years online.
Anything could happen these days...
Maybe when the game's finished, a bored developer who worked on the game might leak it on 4ch for shits & giggles.
We just don't know if those spoilers true or not...

Lmao, get off the forum yourself then big guy. Go read a book or comfort a loved one. Surely you must have better things to do than be on Era with an attitude like this.
Probably stay off TLOU related forum threads then. I'd avoid making threads like this too.
You're surely not new to this, it's the same with any new release. Avoid related media if you want to avoid spoilers or leaks.
It's unlikely that you'll see a leak for the narrative in a headline, at least not on ERA, so stay away from threads and forums that relate to TLOU just to be safe, and I think you'll be fine.
In general I think the weakest point security wise is the playtesters that these studios get in. Most of Sony's games are played by 100s if not 1000s of players prior to release, all of which are NDAed, but it can be challenging for studios to hold them accountable.
A lot of those leaks actually don't get seen by anyone though. I remember working in industry and we'd see leaks here and there, some random would post the narrative on Facebook, 4chan, twitter or some place, and would either ignore the post or not believe it was real.
I remember seeing one wherein someone leaked the narrative for a popular video game series, and the guy got bashed for making stuff up, with folks saying his story was too unrealistic.
Kind of like how the Apex Legends map was leaked one year prior to the games release and everyone just dismissed it. That's a good example.

That's a fair point. I'm just struggling to see how things would suddenly leak now because of a delay when testers would have been under NDA for a very long time already (presumably some since the game was last delayed)
It's not like the story is going to set the world on fire. So if something gets leaked... Who cares?
Man there are some real hostile responses in here just because someone is worried about spoilers on a video game. Probably not worth the thread but some of you need to remind yourself you are on a video game forum
A whole bunch of people care. Why shouldn't people care when plots, twists, character deaths, character relations and a whole lot more get spoiled in advance? People care for these stories and characters, the worlds they're in. People want to experience that first hand, having stuff spoiled before that sours the experience.
This is not a hard concept to grasp, at all.
I suppose they could find the draw to leak more enticing, since people are likely to be hungry for news about the game.
But in general I agree with you, there's no reason to fear leaks more now, than there was before.
Already happened. Bunch of new clips have leaked:
www.resetera.com
Warning: The Last of Us 2 details have leaked | Spoiler Thread | [Mark All Spoilers]
I don‘t remember this from the b-roll, but I could remember wrongly. Lock if old. Another:
www.resetera.com
Only the guitar clip is new stuff. And no spoilers shown. The other 2 clips seems diferent/ new footage, from the demo they showed last year.
It's the same segment yea but there's no telling how old it is. Arguably it looked straight up more unfinished than the demo build.
