Comment on Microsoft patent describes in-game advertising triggered by boss fights, loading screens, and cutscenes

While ad free implies being on some sort of game pass (fuck that now as it is), I would sooner go back to board games before ever even considering a game with this included. Companies buying virtual billboards was gross enough.

Big props to M$ for patenting this so when they inevitably fuck it up, it’s off the table for others.

board games

Don’t give them any ideas for trying to make persistent ads in those too. Monopoly would ironically be the first.

  You’re trying to tell me the countless resins aren’t just ads?
