Footage I've only avoided are the full Uncovered Trailer and TGS 2016 Trailer.
I've also avoided the full Uncovered event.
My intention was too avoid the Titan demo but my friend told me how after watching it he worried for the games quality so i had to see for myself(persuaded further after some people on other forums shared the same concerns as friend).
There are a few ATR segments I also intentionally avoided.
Any cutscenes in gameplay videos I try to avoid.
I avoid hearing/seeing some dialogue, like in the latest TwitchCon. I avoid listen to the official music(don't mind listening to fan renditions of them now and again).
I'll avoid any major trailers(story heavy/new location revealing)from now till release.
This way the game should feel fresh as possible to me :3
Leaks are evil so I perform and exorcism anytime one pops up!

You have the strength of a thousand Norse gods to have that kind of restraint. I unfortunately am not that strong. I really just love this games world and characters so much that I thirst for every little drop of info or footage. I want to see the big launch trailer for maximum hype. That kind of trailer is definiltely something that this game needs. We are so close now. The full experience is almost upon us.
i basically watched every footage available and read all the revealed information, and even then i feel like i barely know much; mainly about the story, but also about advanced gameplay or the locations of the world.
i'm really curious about this game, i want to discover what is FFXV.
After watching the TwitchCon footage I feel like Tabata is purposely holding back from revealing too much for now. Come the last 2-4 weeks, they'll really let loose with what FFXV is all about.
"What I played was an ambitious and tremendously entertaining combination of Western world design and Japanese character-building. If you ever wished that Final Fantasy and The Witcher could have a baby, it’d look a lot like FFXV."
That's kind of how I view FFXV. It has The Witcher 3's meticulous and insanely detailed world-building mixed with a very Japanese flavour and charming way of how characters are developed.
Imagine if that happens. Imagine if the metacritic score does become 100. I am 100% certain that someone random from GAF or GFAQs will come along and make sure it doesn't get a good user score. Like, there will be a revolt and it'll be shit on from random people just cause the critics gave it 100. Also imagine all the threads reading "FFXV paid off Metacritic" or "Here is 100 reasons why FFXV is complete garbage" or something along those lines.
90-100 it'd be paid off overrated garbage.
In the 80's range it'll be mediocre, Square didn't pay enough.
70's or lower then it's a critical failure, Square has no money to spare.
Not that I'm gonna look at the Meta score or review UNTIL I finish the game.
All I'll be doing is playing the game and streaming it for the next 2 months or so xD
Sarcams aside, as much as I want FFXV to be a BIG sucess, a 100 is unlikely (I haven´t seen any game having one and keeping said score), a 90+ score is totally plausible though.
"There's no embargo on my FFXV coverage, so here goes: I had an extended press demo today, and I am honest-to-goodness stoked to play more."
This is from someone who tweeted today. I suppose he is some kind of gaming journalist. I wonder if we will get any footage from this extended demo?. Glad to hear so many people are loving the game. It really is great that Tabata and his teams hard work is paying off.

I think he said he got up to chapter 3. I would assume that he got past the place they showed at Twitchcon with that bandersnatch fight. Not quite sure though.
