You've watched over 100 zero punctuation episodes, you should already know the answer. You should know that Yahtzee constantly spoils entire plots and endings of the games he rants about. This is also the reason I have not even watched his screed: revelations video.
You're going to have to really stretch the definition of the word "spoiler" to make it work in the way you're trying to make it work.
And I do mean REALLY stretch it. For the record, "spoiler" generally doesn't refer to things that are stupidly obvious, like "Diablo appears in Diablo 3". Giving an explanation for how Diablo is resurrected in Diablo 3, despite managing to get his SOUL destroyed in Diablo 2, WOULD be a legitimate spoiler. (btw, still waiting to find a good explanation for how the hell that works at all that isn't a giant middle finger to D2 fans) >_>
But I'm willing to hear this out. Tell me, can you please provide multiple examples of ZP reviews in which Yahtzee spoiled the entire ending of the game while reviewing it? And I do mean the ENTIRE ending, not just pointing out one or two plot points that show up halfway through the game and continue to have an impact on the game's finale. I think the last I can recall is Kane and Lynch 2....and did you really need Yahtzee to tell you not to buy that game?
Besides, even if your assertion were as true as you try to make it sound (and I'm not convinced it is), your point still really doesn't dismiss the rest of the post you quoted, in which I also stated that there are lots of other ways to get information about a game, too. So....
