So Essentially... (Off-Topic)
Life is about the journey, not the destination.
^_^
I think this worldview right here is why spoilers don't generally bother me, be it a movie, tv show, or a game. Mass Effect 3 is a fairly good example. Sure I attempted to avoid spoilers for a time, but eventually I stopped trying and spent an hour one day watching the various ways your crew could die or be written out, along with various other major plot points including the ending. When I finally played the game, I knew some of these moments were coming, but it didn't detract from anything, because the real joy was getting to those moments.
I am your inverse, then. :)
I'm with you, Levi, although I certainly can agree that suspense and surprises aren't everything. It turns out that for some things, though, that's the best thing it has going for it. If it's really good, it bears experiencing it multiple times, and that's when you get the deeper appreciation. When I was in school and didn't have time to re-read everything, I would read synopses, and that definitely helped me get more out of a work with one read.
