Ten years from now, this will be the norm, the new generation of game players will be acclimated to it, and we'll have to hear takes by young people about how we're stealing from game devs actually if we don't watch the game ads
The worst part of getting old is listening to younger folk tell you how the world couldn't have possibly worked the way it actually did work in the past.
It could be the norm in AAA games, but most likely won't be. Even if it is, there will be a ton of non-AAA titles that don't have ads.
Battlefield 2142 having in game ads sure didn't kick off a widespread trend in FPS games, and this seems more like Ubisoft being Ubisoft.
I'm old. I used Google in the late 90s when they didn't share or sell your data, and YouTube in 2006 when it was just regular people making videos on their phones. I have no optimism.
Idiocracy, slowly but surely
I can already hear people going "so what, it's industry standard"
