Kind of a hilarious, yet probably effective marketing strategy.

    Agreed, sometimes good, tasteful ad placement can add to the experience instead of taking away. Sometimes it’s awful too though, I remember my immersion was absolutely vaporized by Coleman being featured prominently in FF15

      Coleman is a real brand!? I legitimately had no idea 😂

      I loved FFXV, the only advertisement I outright noticed was Cup Noodles, but that was a SUPER egregious one!

        It is! They make camping and outdoor supplies and they’re everywhere around where I live. It was such a surreal experience booting up my fantasy game and seeing that brand haha
