How ad-supported game monetization can be a win-win-win for publishers and gamers

[Jebu Nagazi]

Why not just plaster ADs on other forms of arts aswell?
I can easily picture some nice GOOD YEAR & Mc Donald logos on Picasso paintings & why not stamp a BIG NIKE logo on the forehead of the Mona Lisa ^^ ?

God this must be the biggest shill in the S.K gaming journalism of the centuary O_O !
Wonder how much EA paid him to wtite this?

When I get home from a long day of work, I just want to get my shit pushed in by some 10 year old in COD, I don't want to buy shit. There's a damn good reason why I install adblock everywhere.

Just put them in loadingscreens. nobody cares about those anyway...

Wipeout on the PS3 did something like this. Load times were affected.

In the future people don't buy things anymore, they just watch ads.

They buy the chance to watch ads to buy more things filled with ads.

 

[Fagnacious D]

Oh boy I can't wait to see the new Ads in the latest game in the series!
Another new IP is coming out? I can't wait to see what kind of ads it features!
I wonder if the new sports game will have ads for an upcoming or recent release.
An indie game? Probably doesn't have any ads or microtransactions. I'm not buying that.
Oh wow an old game is being remade, I can't wait to see what kind of ads they put into it!
An old IP is being revived. I can't wait to see how they can fit their ads into in it!

 

[Secret Asshole]

Consumers like to watch ads. Fucking LOL.

 

[White Devil]

I despise being advertised to and it's a great way to ensure I never use your product or what you're shilling.

 

[LinkinParkxNaruto[AMV]]

Fucking amen.
Marketing was one of the classes in my HS, and let me tell you the closer you look into the people in marketing the more intense your hatred of them grows. Their brains may be okay, but they're not human brains. Demons, they're fucking demons, and not the cool kind.

I worked in Ad agencies, can confirm, marketing people and publicists have no souls, they are Golems.

 

[Shield Breaker]

What was the last mobile game anyone here seriously played? Because for me it was that port of Symphony of the Night. Otherwise, mobile gaming doesn't interest me.

How the fuck would you be able to play that on mobile? I tried playing FFVI and the controls sucked.

It plays fine. Symphony is a pretty easy game.

I'd quite like to see the questionaire they presented on advert, for example did it even suggest not having ads as questionaire, because I've yet to encounter anyone who approves of ads in games.

Frankly including ads in games sounds like total dog shit.

Oops! It looks like 30 minutes have passed without any mention of thanks to your McOverlords for giving you great games and great food at a great price! You have 30 seconds to jump up and do the Golden Arches Apprectiation Dance or your McGamingAccount will be locked. Monthly payments will still be taken while your account is locked.

Just put them in loadingscreens. nobody cares about those anyway...

Inb4 every game is full of load screens that are long as hell even running in the fastest pc ever.

Suddenly makes me want to see Yandere Simulator to be filled with ads and the ensuing shitshow that would happen from it.

Then Null could buy adspace to put KF in there.
