With the rise of certain prominent leakers like Emily, and the sheer amount of leaks as we approach E3 this year (is this year the leakiest on record?), I'm wondering if some of these aren't actual marketing tactics to ensure gamers are engaged and talking about these games up until the actual game reveals? I also wonder if some of these leaks are on purpose to gauge interest among the hardcore fanbases, to determine how best to focus their marketing. Going even further, I wonder if some leaks are intentionally falsified to throw people off the trail.
Does any of this sound plausible, or am I just a tinfoil-hat conspiracy theorist?
