    What if you select every category because ads are a stupid timewaste?

    Regardless how many times they are telling me that Diablo 4 is “the fastest-selling ARPG ever” and flaunt the phoney 10/10 “review scores”, it’s not gonna change my opinion that the game is dog poop and thoroughly unimpressive. So why inconvenience me by making me load that shitty picture, it won’t make me buy that shit.

    I honestly don’t get the point of ads.

      Unless it’s direct-response targeted, the point of adds isn’t to make you buy shit instantly, it’s to plant a seed and make you aware of a product so that one day you do spend money in it.
