I’m a steamer, but after seeing how Atlus has handled streaming for persona 5, it has honestly made me not want to support the company with future purchases. Not to mention that people streaming the game is free advertising for it. People will buy your game if they’re able to see how the game plays, get honest opinions from people that play it, listen to the music, see what the personas look like, see the general theme for the game, etc. I understand the spoilers thing going on, but at the same time, trying to restrict streamers from showing your game in any way is a really bad decision. The game is a global success because of your passion for the series, and we’re happy that so many of you are enjoying it. Lastly, we want to thank our fans around the world for supporting Persona 5 and ATLUS. It was never our intention to threaten people with copyright strikes, but we clearly chose the wrong tone for how to communicate this. We want to be transparent about what we do, and the reason we released the guidelines was to give streamers the right information up front. We also want to apologize to those of you who saw the previous guidelines blog post as threatening. Because we want to give players the most access to the game while respecting the original goal, we’re now asking players to refrain from streaming or posting video past the end of the in-game date of 11/19-when the main story gears up for the final act. However, we also heard your issues with the guidelines and have decided to revise them. We recognize that our fans are the reason why the game is the major worldwide success it is, and we continue to want them to be able to enjoy the game without fear of being spoiled. To our surprise, we then saw numerous reactive news articles go up, opinion videos post, and received many emails asking us to please change our Persona 5 streaming/video policy. When Persona 5 launched, we put out a set of video/streaming guidelines that we hoped would limit online spoilers for fans who have yet to play the game.
