As supported AAA games

[koulmj]

Trying to solve the problem the EA seems to have with their AAA title games like Star Wars battlefront two. Would you guys be willing to buy the game if you only had to pay like $40 for it but then you had to watch an EA or Disney driven advertisement between pvp rounds?

Sure, only if they popped up as part of your Loot Box...

That defeats the point of the ad. We trying to get away from the LB here

That's like trying to cure cancer with ALS.

What about pandora radio commercials that play local location driven ads while you match is loading up? This way ea can get money and I don’t have to pay for all the extra ****?

Pandora only plays commercials when you use it for free, i.e. without subscription.

Ads (in games) are, like microtransactions, F2P mechanisms. They have absolutely no place in a full-price title.

Well what i was asking about was a half price game with ad’s vs. a full price game with no ads

I'd rather just pay money for a finished game, and not have to be a continued cash generator for a terrible company.
I'd certainly not be willing to sit through longer loading/wait times (and we all know AAA publishers would artificially inflate times) to watch trash adverts.

They keep peddling the excuse that games are too expensive now, but who's buying that? Maybe stop urinating so much of the budget on terrible marketing...
The real problem the top publishers have is that they are scumbags, with no interest in the health of the sector they're in. They only care how much $$$ they can bleed out of it.

I would avoid EA as much as I possibly could - ads or not

You need a maybe option in your poll. It depends on how obtrusive the ads would be.
