It might be over for console players because Microsoft apparently filed a patent recently for in-game ads. Contextually aware management of application access. And we're not talking pop-ups that may appear on screen. We're talking total is exceeded and the game sends a "promoted content trigger event" - a message saying the game is loading, the player paused, and so on - the ad pop-up will freeze the user's control over the game to show an ad. After it finishes, the player regains control of the game, and the credit resets. Like YouTube styled, middle of your game. Now sit and advertisement to end. In between loading screens, a certain amount of time that you've played the game. Your credits are, you have to to reset those credits. Circle back to was expressing a few weeks ago surrounding Xbox when people were praising the CEO for doing a good job of PlayStation. And how they, people to digitize their games under the idea, share it with friends. And that was a problem for me because I don't trust them. We are now seeing, I assume, that the digitizing of your games is so they can read the games and force ads into the loading screens. It's not clear as of right, gonna be all games or specifically free to play games. Or where or how it will be fully implemented. This patent, it is understood that we are now going to see advertisements in the middle of your games. You're already having to pay for subscription to access internet. Another subscription to access online gameplay on consoles. Gonna have to also pay with your eyeballs and time. Being forced to view advertisements in your game. We are not angry enough.
