Razer Footprints is the dumbest marketing I've ever seen...

don't even dignify those 'arguments' with a response, people. they're skirting around the issue and avoiding what you're actually trying to talk about. it's like i'm on reddit.


If an advertisement is completely optional then that is relevant and not skirting the issue at all. How does it affect me if I virtually never see this advertisement that everyone is so upset about?



It is an omen.
I am the light of the morning and the shadow on the wall, I am nothing and I am all.
It was a bad idea to mix it with actual game play. No one said anything about the Twitch partnership because it's in the menu. A "free“ micro/add makes people fear that a Pepsi exp potion will be next. Free when you enter the code from under the cap! I doubt that will happen though.

So there's an option to turn it off from showing up in parties and towns?

I don't know about you but I don't stand around in town staring at peoples feet. I have yet to notice anyone using this micro transaction. If your in a party thats using it then feel free to leave if it bothers you that much or kick the person using it.

Finally someone has the courage to point out how a symbol that appears for seconds and looks like a group of coiled snakes is just so gosh darn offensive! It really breaks my emersion because I look and I see the snakes and I'm like "oh hey look at those snakes" and then I have to remember all the posts like this crying about it and... yeah, just really bugs me.


Exactly! It's just snakes. They should add another free footprint, perhaps some kind of fruit!

Any free micro cheapens the ones that people have contributed for. some uniques have effects but those are from Diamond contributors... also it would suck if everyone had banana foot prints. Want to annoy people? Then pay to do so!

So it's not optional.

I don't want to see it. I shouldn't have to see it, if it is optional as you claim - because you claim it is optional, there should be an OPTION not to see it, that doesn't nueter half the game experience. So I'll ask again:

Is there an option to turn off other people's effects?

If there is not, then it is NOT optional, so stop spitting out that BS.

Personally, it doesn't bother me that much, but don't say shit that isn't true to support your argument.
Y I get clearly distracted by razor footprints....not
Spoiler


An addblocker would be nice in the end but I dont think companys that pay money for advertisement would like an addblock function for what they are paying. If your company would like to give GGG money and get your own advertisement I dont think you would like to get this option in the game too..and still it is nothing hitting my eyes but maybe i am not playing on a 60 inch monitor like some others that can really see this shit.


people plz grow up, its a game.

As far as immersion goes, it falls inline with all the other special character effects.


You're kidding yourself. Shiny magical effects are in line with a shiny magical land. Real life logos are not.


Doesn't even look like a logo.
