But it doesn't connect back to anything. You'll know there's someone in the story called "the Exarch", which is meaningless until you meet him in that story. Whereas G'raha Tia is a pre-established character from a previous storyline.

Regardless of whether the thread title is appropriate or not, knowing that "the Exarch" is a character in Shadowbringers does not equate to knowing that G'raha Tia will be returning to the story in Shadowbringers.

By comparison in the past,

Lyse's name and face is all over promotion for Stormblood, and I never connected her to Yda.

It doesn't really matter if people theorized it was him, or if it was obvious. I thought it was him the moment he showed up in the trailer. But there was always the chance SE would subvert our expectations and reveal in the story the Exarch is someone else. It was a small chance, and didn't happen, but the title is still spoilery regardless.

R.I.P. lol

It could literally have been a question along the lines of "what's happened with GT if the CT is on the First" or something similarly vague. You don't know any implications or anything unless you actually click the thread.

I could use the same thread title with Minfilia replacing GT, and according to all of you it's automatically a spoiler despite you having literally zero context to the content in question. Get over yourselves, I stand by my earlier comment of no context, no spoiler.

Aeris dies.

Ok on one hand, minfilia is already in the trailer so no it isn't the same.

I see your point, but it does edge darn close to unfortunate territory because anyone tabbing in assuming it were a question that innocent - maybe who had that very question - would've instantly been smacked with the real spoiler because the op also wasn't spoiler tagged. On them for clicking in I suppose, but still. If you didn't know we were gonna see G'raha, you'd have no reason to assume that the spoiler was anything more than the fact that CT is on the first xD

But whatever, whole debate is pointless. OP got their answer and deleted their post so *shrug*
