While most of you don't like him, It was a great marketing idea for him to show his 12 million fans a brief video showing a few scares. If you hate Pewds, why watch his video which is obviously titled Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs Scary Moments Montage, and then say he
spoiled it
I didn't watch his video; instead, I saw screenshots by accident. Why the fuck would you even put together a 'scary montage' video before anyone else had a chance to play the game for themselves? A lot of people want to experience all the scary bits for themselves not see someone else do it, let alone see screenshots you didn't want to see. It's a good marketing idea but it ruins things for people who didn't want to see anything yet, perhaps it would have been more logical to do this on release but not two weeks before it! I didn't intentionally look up screenshots. What would be the point in staying off the internet now? I have seen what I didn't want to see and I didn't know it was there beforehand. So this PewDiePie thing has really pissed me off and a lot of other people too! All this time waiting to experience this encounter for myself and I accidently find a screenshot before I had a chance to play it, it's really disappointing.
I wasn't addressing my post to you, It was for all the people who said "I couldn't help myself, i had to take a peek at the video" and then crucify PewDiePie because he showed off a few points of the game, even though it was there fault for looking at it. I get what you mean about seeing the posts on DeviantART that really sucks. I can't really blame pewdie though. If I had to blame somebody it would be FG/TCR because they sent him a preview copy for the sole reason to get publicity. Look at an earlier post of mine to see my opinion on the demo/preview copy.

View equals promotion for the game, but views also equal...
Best post ever.
