I fully don't care what happens, ignore this thread whatever, i just want to make this point.

The escapist i understand that you want to promote the other content on the site, but this is not the way to do this. having some douche from some rubbish cartoon made by a six year insult me whenever i want to watch a video. all i want to do is listen to the wisdom of Yahtzee Croshaw. but no. every. single. bloody. video. has the same guy delivering the same bloody message.

TAKE THE FUCKING ADS OFF THE START OF EVERY SINGLE FUCKING VIDEO.

DO YOU PEOPLE NOT HAVE SIDE BARS? UNDERBARS? ALL ADVERTISING THE SAME FUCKING THING.

BANNER ADS ARE LESS ANNOYING,(that feels weird to say)

DORALEOUS ISN'T EVEN THAT GOOD.

AND WHILE WE'RE ON THIS TOPIC. NO. I DON'T CARE ABOUT PUBLISHERS CLUB OR DEALS FOR RPGS FROM SOME SHADY ONLINE STORE (steam is much better btw fyi)


edit:
should have mentioned this. i did put up with this for the run of the campaign, but just now i've had my fill

Okay, now that we've got that out of the way...

Try to be patient, like the rest of us.

wow you made an account just for this...?
it is just on for a week every other website is willing to do the same thing and the same ad can be repeated for a month there are only like 10 videos released in a week so at most you can watch it 10 times or just leave the escapist until Thursday.

Also Game Dogs: Fuck you, you borderline furries. make the art better, the voice acting better and make the characters less bloody retarded. then and only then i may watch it
If you don't like the content, why are you here? Just don't watch the show if it isn't your kind of thing.

Meh, understandable annoyance, but I generally just mute the ads. It's not like this is the first time in my life i've been bombarded with ads.

I'm shamed to admit this but i never noticed that. but the other point is that it wastes bandwidth and coming from a country with capped broadband this is not a great plan

OT: You know that "growing up" business all the adults told you about in kindergarten? Not as overrated as you might think.

So you're complaing that The Escapist is using their money to promote their content on their website? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure that they are perfectly within their rights to try and sell their features to you with a 7-30 second add per five minute video, or about 2-10% of the whole video. Or have you never seen how television has about 20%+ of their programming taken up by ads? Not just bumped over, replaced by.

Its more the method than the content that pisses me off

Hey man, they need to get capital income from somewhere. If it's that much of a problem mute the ads (like I do).

As far as the other content (Doraleous, Game Dogs etc) goes, if you don't like it then just don't watch it. Personally I really like Game Dogs.

Again, you prefer the television method? Interupting the stuff you're watching to sell you car insurance and tampons? At least with the Escapist, it's quick, mostly painless, and No randomly spaced throughout videos.

It would be good if they got rid of that shitty advert. I'm not gonna buy a nissan, neither is anyone I know who goes on the Escapist
