Lee DunaGamers enraged at Ubisoft for injecting ads into the middle of video games
parpol“Most agreed that promos about new games and other content are slightly more tolerable on the main menu before the game starts,”
If I see as much as a small banner ad in a game, I’m immediately refunding, and never purchasing a game from that publisher ever again.
Baldur's Gate 3 was probably the best game of this year (?), but it has an advert for the DLC as soon as you launch it
However, it's also probably one of the least-bad "triple A" games of this year when it comes to overall monetisation, that singular DLC of cosmetics and the soundtrack being the only one available
Unfortunately, I think this one is a losing battle
I was looking forward to buying that game after upgrading my PC. This makes me sad. Maybe the pirated version gets rid of the ad.
I mean I guess Divinity never had ads unless you consider the launcher an advert for their other titles, given that that's basically what it's there to do?
If you don't consider anything in launchers to be adverts then I guess you can play BG3, because that's where the advert for the DLC lives?
I really feel like if Larian had only given you the soundtrack and not the cosmetics, and just not called it DLC, that people really wouldn't be so up in arms about it.
