All of GGG: "MOOOOOOONEEEEEEEYYYY!!! :D:D" I don't think it went down like that, but all in all you can't deny that another brand logo is an obvious form advertising.

All of GGG: "MOOOOOOONEEEEEEEYYYY!!! :D:D" After reading this, it's pretty clear: you haven't had many conversations with Chris before (or the other employees at GGG) :) No its true, I haven't, and I know they are a pearl in an ocean of shit, but that's the vibe Im getting from this, but hopefully Im just overreacting and this is a one time thing, I can live with that, no prob. Or we'll see more of this stuff in the future.. Still don't know why it had to be the actual logo, why not like 3 green snakes following you? Oh well..

I know some people will be mad at this, you can never please everyone, but when you think about it it's not like it says "Razer" on it. I showed this to a few friends earlier today, 2 of which had no idea who/what Razer was, they both thought the graphic below their feet was pretty cool looking. I can understand how advertisement placing can kind of suck in a game, but I think this is pretty far removed from that. It's also completely optional, so it's not like you're forced into it. You may see it in parties from time to time, but I doubt anyone who isn't partnered with them will choose this for long over an actual mtx footprint, or one of many already on items. As I said, I get the other side, but this is free stuff, and Razer is a big, well known company. This endeavor will get PoE more look-ups than it will Razer, which is a good thing for the game in the long run.

" Their logo is surprisingly suitable for our game world and makes for a cool looking footprints effect. Saw them in the Sarn Encampment before reading this news post, didn't recognize the Razer logo, still I found it very weird and not really fitting. Well, now I know why. People running around plastering the ground with glowing green advertisment, is there more of that crap coming up? Could at least be more subtle. " Bobbyblind wrote: I don't really like the idea of in-game advertisements for a company. (refering to the logos in the footprints). It feels completely out of place in Path of Exile. I'm sorry to be THAT guy (the one that's not happy about good news), but this quite ugly and sad in my opinion. ^ wise words	Posted by Lord_of_Error#1507 on Aug 29, 2013, 9:19:10 PM Quote this Post
