Ads in the street, on TV, on the radio, in magazines, on the internet, in games (including in VR)…
It’s a nightmare it will be completely impossible to go through one minute of your life without being sold something.
It’s not really something new but it saddens me because gaming was one of the few space that was mostly spared by advertisers.
One of the last place you could get out of your reality for a little while.
Now this is over. Just like Netflix people will go up in arms against ads and then still get Free2Play games showing ads and normalize that practice.
I have removed alot of advertising on tv by self hosting my dvd/br content. Best decision i had in a while, its like netflix but content is there forever and always accessible from anywhere in the world (if my upload can keep up). Fair amount of work but no subscription chargers
I don’t know, I have removed close to 80% of ads in my life. None on my pc, none on my phone, none when I listen to music, none when I play games. Adblocking, Linux and a dash of the old yarr matey worked like a charm
Fuck this.
There will be literally ads everywhere soon.
