Thank goodness I’ve been using YouTube mostly to listen to game soundtracks lately. I haven’t seen any spoiler for Odyssey, and I hope it continues that way.
@Tsurii Yeah it is. Just don't go and search for Odyssey gameplay on YouTube every day, cause then you're going to see a lot of them in your recommendations list.
Since I haven't been watching a lot of Super Mario Odyssey things, I haven't seen spoilers. The only Mario things I've seen have been from one youtube channel I subscribe to, but they're very good about making sure people know there are spoilers in the video, and not putting it in the thumbnail.

I won't lie, it's very relieving to hear there are a decent number of unannounced kingdoms. I'm not expecting another half of the game to suddenly materialize, but it's just good to know. One of the first things I did when I started Breath of the Wild was open up the runes menu to check my expectations. The disappointment of there only being four items plus like amiibo and camera functionality definitely set the tone for my unfulfilled expectations of that game.
I'm not spoiled as to what those kingdoms are yet FYI, this post is not meant to invite spoiler discussions.
@macapala Yeah there's no point in feeling disappointed about it!
There are probably plenty of other kingdoms that I haven't seen yet anyway so I'll have that to look forward to.
And at least I know that the final kingdom is good? I would have still preferred not knowing what it was though...
I've been avoiding all things Odyssey too but that is going to get a lot harder come the 27th . I'll be buying the game that day but I won't really be playing it. I'm still back in the UK till some time next month and my gaming time is extremely limited. I don't want to play a game like this in short bursts here and there. Plus I want to play this beauty on the big screen with the volume pumped up and that isn't really possible till I'm back at my own place.
Usually, I avoid anything regarding an exciting upcoming release, and even its franchise, for the week leading up to launch. The reason is not so much spoilers (couldn‘t care less about that and I already know all about Odyssey that I need/want to know) but the thought of reviewers and YouTubers already playing that game makes me feel, and I don‘t care how immature that might sound, jealous. Of course, these people need to do their job and I have nothing against that. Simply a bit of friendly jealousy in the vein of 'Oh, come on, man, I wanna play, too!'. Not seeing or reading anything relating to the entire franchise, in a way, is meant to ease the wait without reminding myself that there are already others playing it.
What‘s weird about the wait leading up to Odyssey‘s release (bit more than 77 hours CEST to go!) is that I have a craving for 3D Mario let‘s plays outside of watching Odyssey gameplay videos. I spend most of my days studying for an exam and binge-watching the Game Grumps and Peanutbutter Gamer play through 64, Sunshine and Galaxy.

@BLP_Software If I was to blame somebody at all, I‘d blame these stupid folks leaking footage, breaking NDAs just for a quick buck and the sweet knowledge of spoiling the game for others. Hopefully all of them are getting blacklisted from ever receiving a review copy ever again. But my comment above was not meant to put a blame on anybody, let alone on Nintendo. Ninty’s well in their right for taking down those videos and truth be told, I‘m surprised they were up as long as they were.

Replace "( )" with "[ ]". Always check if the tags work, they can be a bit finicky sometimes. You can also just post the link to said image by using (url) and (/url), again replace "( )" with "[ ]". Just to play it safe, in that case people can decide for themselves whether they want to open the image or not.
