They released a free 2 hours demo and showed the game countless times they aren't hiding anything. Even well reviewed games have these type of embargo these days. I would only get worried if it was the same as the street day.
Supposedly SE has done this before. So with what they showed + two demos spanning 2+ hours, I think they are OK with doing this.
It's a day 1 for me already so, yeah.
Honestly the embargo is not even in consideration at this point. I'm ordering as soon I can download in time for launch

Doesn't really mean much. We've already gotten a demo and seen so much of the game.
But good on them for waiting till the very last minute. If it reviews well, the hype will simply push a lot of casuals over the edge and it won't give media outlets and shills anytime to even stoke a narrative... Like what's happened with many Playstation exclusives.
Xbox dudes already hard at work on the downplay on social media.
They can try all they want the review scores will drown everything out right as the game drops and that's exactly what Sqaure is betting on.
They will be offering many critiques of the grapes they can't reach for the rest of the generation, unless the get some brainpower going and leave Team Green.
With how good the demo is the review score would need to be in the low 70s to scare people away from buying the game. I just can't see something like that happening.
What they showed in the trailers are barely 2 hours into the game, and is in the demo. So, no, you haven’t seem much of the game.
