8faiNt Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 (edited) If you didnt know already, Warframe has a page about partners Link. You can access this page easily by just clicking on the '' PARTNER '' button on the forum. You cant really miss, It's huge. No problem so far but that page includes videos from warframe partners and some of them, obviously, aren't aware of this but they are giving spoilers. Now I know few of my friends were avoiding Youtube and Youtube Partners already but how can you even avoid this? It's literally on Warframe.com, It's literally the least expected place that you would learn the story and spoil things for yourself. Spoiler I think that DE should blur those thumbnails so the people who just started the game can enjoy their story without any spoilers. like I said in the beginning, It is really easy to access those videos.

Does DE manually pick every single video that goes in there? If not, you have unrealistic expectations. Why not just not have them there at all? Based on that thumbnail, I wouldn't know what was being shown without watching the video. So the issue is only if someone watches it. And people could find this in many other places, so how much does it really matter? Partners could also just put a spoiler tag on their thumbnails. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a pretty big problem regarding the player experience. It's not some petty bug fix post. It should be taken seriously. 18 minutes ago, krc473 said: Based on that thumbnail, I wouldn't know what was being shown without watching the video. So the issue is only if someone watches it. Spoiler You REAAAAALLLYYY don't need to be a wizard to see that is Lotus. First of all, there's literally 1 ''ONE'' main female character in the story. also, how can you even miss that decollete? That thumbnail is a clear hint that, in the story, there's a twist about Lotus. 18 minutes ago, krc473 said: Does DE manually pick every single video that goes in there?

You need to read the whole statement, not pick it into pieces. If DE does not manage it, how can they be expected to blur the thumbnails with spoilers? Why shouldn't it be up to the partners to do that? If they want to be promoted there it should be their responsibility to limit the spoilers they share. Failure to comply should mean that they cannot be promoted in that location. Pretty simple really. 1 hour ago, 8faiNt said: That thumbnail is a clear hint Show it to a new player, see if they can tell you what is going on there. My bet is that they cannot. You are looking at it with the perspective of knowing what it is. Someone that has no idea could see it as anything. Maybe we converted one of those 'big sentient guys' to our team? Ask some new people, see what they think it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know what you are trying to say but I am not saying that there's a twist considering the knowledge I have about the story, so I am pretty objective.

Just now, 8faiNt said: I would assume not DE annually asks partners to choose a video that they have created to have it featured on the community page. The video is supposed to be an example of what viewers are likely to find on their channel if they decided to explore it. There are no limitations communicated to us at the time, and I don't know if DE actually watches what we send before they add it to the website, though I imagine they probably have at least a vague idea of what is being submitted. Partners have no power on the website. It seems odd that DE would allow such thumbnails, but if they didn't want a video to be visible here, it wouldn't be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
