This is...like, silly. You can break any story down into basic plot elements and it will sound boring and uninspired. :P

The Last of Us:
Man travels the country with girl. Man and girl get attacked sometimes. Man and girl survive. The end.

Mass Effect series:
Man/woman must find friends. Man/woman finds friends. Nothing matters after finding friends because you'll end up feeling extreme disappointment anyways. The end.

God of War:
BOY

Has nobody yet seen the collectors edition statue yet? I mean c'mon its gotta be shown by now considering people are paying for something they can't yet see and its just about 3 weeks out.

they said they dont want to show it as its a spoiler for the game.

it has something or someone that is important to it most likely that gets revealed in like the second or third act.


Trust me I understand the concern...I have one pre ordered but at the same time going even more blind is kinda exciting since these days you know absolutely everything about a game before jumping in. the idea that we may not even know the main villain is cool.

I had an early copy of a game once and dont care to get one again.

The only thing you get is bragging rights for a couple werks.

Half the fun for me is talking and posting and reading other posters thoughts and inquiries of the game while everyone is playing it.

There's big and small surprises and lots of cool moments we hope you get to experience while playing, vs getting spoiled online

Really looking forward to being surprised so I'll be treading carefully for the next few weeks.

Also, I wonder if you could help me out please? I have the collector's edition on pre-order and was thinking, how will I know at what point it is safe to open the statue box?

oh no, not again. This happened to me with God of War, fucking youtubers put huge spoilers in the thumbnail.

It's going to take me a few weeks to beat the game so I'm pretty much screwed.

Nice, going to keep an eye out every day.

I was able to get PS4 exclusives like Horizon Zero Dawn, Uncharted 4, No Mans Sky over 2 weeks before release date so hopefully I get lucky this week

it happens. You can't stop leaks, you just try hard to keep whatever you can a surprise.

Yea I just figure it has to suck to have a unique reveal planned for a collectible when you know people will go out of their way to spoil it for others. Is what it is I guess, either way I hope it's not a massive story spoiler and more of a fan service kinda thing.

That's frustrating . I wanna make sure it isn't broken or damaged but I'm sure I won't finish the game for weeks
Have an uninvested friend or family member check for you. Remind them constantly to be thorough, and what it means to be thorough in that context, so that ultimately, you don't have to look for yourself. lol. It sounds a little silly, but if you're worried, sounds like that's p much your option

Haha my wife is already frustrated I ordered it, so asking her to inspect it for me is gonna get me punched.
I guess I'll just risk it

its such a stupid move on insomniac/sony's part. you spend 150$ and then you should not look at the product you bought for days/weeks (and on top of that, avoid all the stuff online)? yeah, thats next to impossible.

I hope there isn't a pic of the statue on the back of the box too

I'm sure there be 100 unboxing videos with the statue in the thumbnail too

I haven't watched any videos since the original e3 reveal what 2 or more years ago? It would suck to get spoiled by just buying the product

Bet that local place in So Cal has it, you guys know the one. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) I posted it a while back when MMX Legacy collection released super early.
