'''[https://web.archive.org/web/20131110232330/http://www.shamusyoung.com/spoilerwarning/ Spoiler Warning]''' is a [[DVD Commentary]]-style [[Let's Play]] group, whose main style consists of deconstructing, analyzing and (in some cases) ruthlessly mocking the plots and characters of the games they play, usually while using a play-style designed to showcase pieces of the game in ways that 'normal' players usually won't see (i.e. by playing the game like it was a tabletop role-playing session and they are [[The Loonie]]). They tend to favour [[Role Playing Games]].

{{creatortropes}}
* [[Accentuate the Negative]]: The group, particularly Shamus and Josh are harshly critical and will quickly pick on parts of the game that they find frustrating. Though they do point out the parts they like in the games and note that as harsh as they are, they do actually like the games (though in the case of Fallout 3, it's more because the game is fun).
** And then there's ''[[Half-Life 2]]'', [[Inverted Trope|which is practically non-stop gushing]].
Line 76 ⟶ 73:
** Shamus mentions how "this is what bugs [him] about [game]", then explaining what.

** Josh's [[
** Someone mentioning a criticism and Shamus going "Euugh, ''yes''!" and elaborating. Often coupled with "This is what bugs me about X/this game-"
** Someone making a suggestion for Josh to do something stupid, to which Shamus responds "Strongly in favor of."
