Reading intertia.
What's reading inertia? Well it's when you're reading
a text passage and you can't stop before you read a
bit that you don't want to read. Here's an example:
in Vice City one of the key moments in the game is
when you have to off Lance Vance because he's - see?
If you're still working through Vice City as I am,
you read all the way to "see?" which, in the original
text would have been a big plot twist. You knew a
spoiler was coming, but even with the mental
handbrake on, your eyes keep skidding on to the goods
and a little part of your mind is doing that
time-dilated "nnnnnooooooooooOOOOOOOOOO!" thing.
Yes, I know, technically most walkthroughs are just
one big spoiler, but I don't know about you but
generally I go to a walkthrough to get a hint on how
to solve just one thing I'm stuck on. So, to people
who write walkthroughs, thanks for the excellent
efforts in writing them, but please learn these
words: Spolier. Alert.
