The only ads I want in my video games are in-world lore appropriate ones. Like the biomechanical penis implant ad from Omikron: The Nomad Soul.
They are doing fucking what?!
Imagine buying Ubisoft games.
What did you expect from a company whose logo is a turd seen from above!
Enshitification going so hard I wouldn’t even pirate it.
But who am i kidding, the pirated version will likely have this crap removed, better performance without denuvo and all exclusives unlocked. Yarrrr
If you buy a Ubisoft game in this day and age there is no way you don't know what you are getting into and the kind of shitty company you are supporting, and you still support it, and its practices, by buying their shit.
So you have absolutely zero right to bitch, moan, and be upset about the very Ubisoft style shit that Ubisoft does.
I already don't buy Ubisoft games. Which of you spineless lukes is bankrolling this crap?
but there's no good reason for studios to insert ads in the middle of a game
"Au contraire!"
— Ubisoft, highly likely.
In other news: Ubisoft's revenue are up 14% year on year in September
I might be wrong, but don't they plan or already do put anticheat into single player games so people don't cheat-in the various ingame currencies they have to buy XP boosts (where without them leveing is a crawl)?
There thou art... The Big Three. Thy faces, AAA Publishers. Thy actions barely worthy of the name. Didst truly believe thy ploy would succeed? Dist believe Jolly Roger's would not notice? Publishers thou may be, yet thou hast proven thyselves fools, every one. The supplication of Ubisoft. The whimper of Activision. The death mewl of Electronic Arts...
