The fun never ends. Clearly xbox is failing so they are trying their hardest to extract as much money as possible from whoever still hasnt sold their console yet
Companies using “Got It” to dismiss their invasive popups makes me so irrationally angry.
I hate “Maybe later” even more
Where’s the “Fuck off” option??
Surprised this isn’t like three verification cans.
…and they want to compete with the Steam Deck?
It’s nice to see the LCD Deck get discounted, if only to relive the old days when consoles got cheaper instead of more expensive as time went on. I almost wanted to buy another one out of principle, even though I don’t have use for more than one.
Oh that is gonna piss people off.
Your ads are not gonna work the way you think they’ll work, when every person who sees them is gonna feel like it’s a middle finger.
It will work. Even if they get 10 new subscribers, it probably took them 20 minutes to whip up this splash screen. They’re wasting much more of your time. And people have proven time and time again that they will get outraged but they’ll never actually do anything about it. They won’t stop playing Xbox. They won’t stop buying games. People grow increasingly accepting of advertising and invasive business practices every day. Remember how angry everyone was at horse armor? Most people wouldn’t think twice about it these days. It’s so much worse now.
lmfao ads on boot on a console you bought?
that’s so fucked. glad I’m not getting back into console gaming
Oh boy wait until I tell you about windows 11™ and all its amazing features!
Running SteamOS on my living room gaming PC. There are more options than windows 11.
You got a love how out of touch these marketers are. They really do think that they understand gamers while sitting in meetings at the Redmond campus.
Oh we had mass cancellations yesterday! War room, what do we do?
Full page ad?
Brilliant! Gamers will obviously see the value and be grateful for it. Maybe now we won’t all be laid off by papa Satya
That understand gamers about as much as you understand marketing. It’s about percentages. If they get some small percentage to buy the subscription, it’s a win. It matters absolutely nothing how many people are irritated by the ad.
