According to posts on online forums, ads have made their way into real-time gameplay in Assassin's Creed Odyssey. One gamer who reported the problem was Redditor triddel24,...
And people are making excuses for the forever inflating greed…
I mean, how do you accept inflating prices and costs while your salary has been stagnant for decades?
It just doesn’t make sense how costs, on individuals, are growing and growing.
I like to compare that argument to climate change. If everyone voted with their wallet to not buy/do things which are bad for the environment we would stop climate change over night.
Now think about how impossible that is and then remember, that collective effort is just as difficult as stopping people buying things which contain ads
It does work like that. You vote with your dollars. If you buy these companies’ products, you confirm they made the right decision.
If enough people abandon their products, they change the model or die.
What you say you like and what your dollars say you like are 2 different things. The sooner people realize this the faster things will improve. But, if people are unwilling to avoid buying products from bad companies, things will get worse. Welcome to capitalism.
Unfortunately you’re not quite right with this one. As an individual, me choosing not to buy a new Samsung TV which has ads on the menu isn’t going to directly effect the sales and/or profit of the model to any measurable significant margin.
If the entire population was able to communicate as one hive mind and apply your utopian strategy it would work, but unfortunately its exceptionally difficult to convince that amount of people.
This is the exact same concept and difficulty behind battling climate change (not buying and doing things which hurt the environment)
Something you’re paying for should be completely ad free, period.
I wish that’s how the world worked, unfortunately it’s not
The World worked that way, but people accepted the new ad contained products they paid for.
People even think it is fine to buy a product you don’t own

I don’t I just pay the same amount since I was born /s
And get less and less for the same payment :p
It would if everybody votes with their wallet.
They do. That’s the problem.

Yes I agree capitalism is … Well… Capitalism 🤣
Unless it’s a billboard!
I pay for my phone and my phone and my internet access. What gives?
This, but unironically.
If I had the means to pirate my internet connection, I’d do it in a heart beat.
