This is a fairly straight forward question: how will you deal with spoilers? I suspect once the game has been released in Japan, info will start pouring in like crazy.
Personally, I think I'll look up a few things, like if Maya's involved, how many cases there are and so forth.
What about you? Will you also do that or will you just stay the hell away from all Ace Attorney related sites until the game has been released in the west?

Properly labelled spoiler tags are things of love:

).Of course, that won't mean that I won't pick up a few spoilers anyway, because, as I said, this is what I'll try to do, which doesn't always succeed. In the past, I've been fairly good to keep myself away from spoilers, and as I've recently had a few nasty experiences with what spoilers can do to your enjoyment, I think I'll try my best this time.

Once the game is released I'm probably going to avoid both the wiki and these forums until I complete the game.
I do have a couple of questions I'll ask in the eventual "I just want to know one thing" topic, such as how many cases are in the game, if Ema appears, and if the ending is a decent possible end to the series (for us Western fans). I'll be avoiding Topics like Maya which most likely will be spoiler-heavy.
I used to have Sam Waterston as my avatar but photobucket added a watermark and also Law & Order has been cancelled for 10 years so it's time for me to move on.

Usually now, I make myself as disinterested as possible in the game until it comes out. Maybe turn that interest to something else...
...Like spoiling the plot of some other game for myself...

I tried doing that once and it didn't end well. It was for AAI ironically. I decided to stop reading any news about it like a year before it came out and I not only got disinterested but I forgot it even came out. I was caught up playing Star Wars: Jedi Knight Dark Forces II when I should have been playing AA! My sister bought a copy soon after and I didn't play it again until late 2011, which kickstarted my interest in the series again. I had just bought a 3DS and wanted something new to play on a trip. I'm glad I did because if I hadn't have started playing AAI I probably wouldn't even know AA5 was coming out.
But that's just me. I'm just a really forgetful person who kind of needs the hype to keep me interested.

Back on topic, I'll be playing through the game fairly quickly if all goes well, so hopefully spoilers won't be too much of an issue personally. I'll be doing what I can to stop them from popping up around the forums though.

We must have been separated at birth or something.
The site is my home page right now and I'm so used to just going here that I'll have to use the parental controls to block it until i'm done with the game or something. I don't think I have the self control to stay away for that long.

Yeah I mean I know now to avoid comments sections but it can't be helped when I want to jam to some nice music from a game and there's spoilers in the related videos.

I am probably going to end up doing what I did for PLvsAA and PL6 and loose all self control and just spend all my free time looking for spoilers and anything that could get me satisfied. I really don't want to do that, but that is most likely what will happen. It always does. Nevertheless, I'm going to try harder for this game!
Well do what ever is easier for you

I'll be getting the game this Thursday/Friday too so I'll be helping with the "I want to know ____" thread.
That said, I was wondering if there is a section on the site/forum where we can publish our own game reviews. I'm thinking of writing one as soon as I finish the game, but will keep it as spoiler-free as possible. Would this simply go into the AA5 forum? I skimmed the site but couldn't find a place for this type of fan-submission. Sorry if I've missed it. Thanks!

I wish we'd get a release date soon for the west. It would make it a little easier to wait this long.

When I first played the games, by the time I got JFA I knew the plot of the whole series for myself. I'm really not good at the whole idea of resisting spoilers.

Its the temptation i remember with bioshock infinite they warned everyone on the youtube video that someone put a spoiler for the ending and me like a idiot checked it out even though they hid it

I did sneak a peek at case 1's details, only because I wanted to confirm a suspicion, and after seeing too much I said "That's it... I'll wait!"

i just peaked in there as well and saw all those spoiler topics i was like "Oh hell no" and backed out of there. Its never good to spoiler a game for yourself just takes the fun out of it

Plus, who knows when the U.S. release is coming out. It's just simply too long of a wait. Maybe if it was being released under a month after the Japanese version, I would handle the wait.

I've avoided the heavy spoilers but I'm sucking up everything else like a sponge.
