I understand why some people are negative about it (not the game, but what i'm gonna talk about next), but i find it refreshing to be 1 month away from release and still be so in the dark about the game. Doesn't happen often enough IMO. I mean, take MGS5 for instance. After playing an entire prologue, side missions and seeing extenside demos of TPP, i don't even feel all that hyped for the final game (though i'm sure i'll enjoy it when the time comes)
Imagination can fill the gaps and make things more interesting in the anticipation process. Is that a bit risky? Not really. People's fear of mistaken pre-orders/purchases is a bit unecessary. Have people not noticed that as long as a game does not have a mandatory day one internet connection update (like Destiny), there are always ways of getting enough info (if you want/need) before release day? Lots of people get their hands on a street copy like a week before release..footage leaks..info leaks... Everything devs struggled to keep hidden gets blown before the actual day the game is supposed to be out. There's time to cancel a pre order then if you so desire
Just as examples, i found out there was in I:SS several days before the game unlocked on my PSN. I intend to avoid similar spoilers with the Order though because with I:SS i was mainly interested in "destroy stuff in an open world gameplay", while with this game i'm interested in everything, special the story and lore. Must avoid all leaks.
