That said, it's just a game, and having a game spoiled for you does not really justify turning the sober condolences tone on your statement all the way up to 10. And I imagine it sucks a whole lot more if you're a developer who spent the last handful of years working on that thing and now you feel the impact of that work will be diminished.

They're talking about someone posting spoilers of their game online.īefore I go any further, here's my obligatory acknowledgement that it does suck having a surprise in a thing you were looking forward to spoiled for you.

But this is a bizarre new world, and if a brand was ever justified in putting on its best straight face for a serious talk with you, it would be in circumstances something like these.īut that quote above isn't from Totino's Pizza Rolls.

It's sort of ridiculous and over-the-top, the idea that you were just sitting there teetering on the edge of the abyss, ready to give into despair and just shut down until you got a push notification that your old pal Totino hadn't forgotten you.

It's a sentiment you've probably seen in your email box dozens of times by now.

Is there something you think we should be reporting on? Email know the last few days have been incredibly difficult for you.
