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

      The implementation can be balanced that it does not disrupt the immersion of the player while suiting the company’s brand image.

      Honestly this should be done in most titles. Maybe in the future an company makes their product/ service announcement in game? Would be awesome.

      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
