Can't have anything nice apparently :/
Who the hell is buying The game of Life nowadays? Boardgamers don't touch games with roll and move mechanics and small children are too screen addicted to play a board game. The only target market are probably clueless grandmas but even they are too savy to buy a boxed waste of time like this one.
I literally bought it because I thought it would be fun.
It was fun. Once. Now I'm too bored to play it again tbh.
Grandmas don't have time to play life
TIL I'm a clueless grandma...
Remember in that Dethklok show that I can't spell when people went to the live performance of a band that had a less than 10% survival rate for their audience, on a frozen mountain top, to hear a fucking coffee jingle?
We're not far removed from that, people will be lining up to buy fucking tickets for a high budget McRib ad come this Novmeber.
Metalocalypse?
Yes, that's the one, unfortunately it kept being flagged as misspelled. In retrospect, portmanteaus are probably not considered real words by spellcheckers.
Good on them for having Dethklok in there, though!
I already dislike ads in general, but ads on things I pay for, be it physical goods or digital services, is crossing a line I find unacceptable.
Let me tell you clothes and shoes lol
FWIW I’m with you. My latest pet peeve has been wondering why car dealerships get to plaster their shit on our cars.
And that's why you should always use an adblocker (black permanent marker)
I just want to point out... They took a quote from what appears to be a review... Then credit tripadvisor for it rather than the person who made the comment/review on the tripadvisor platform.
Bad citation.
Any words you use on TripAdvisor are the property of TripAdvisor.
-Lemmy, apparently.

Actually I don't think it is. They'd have a license to use it in perpetuity but if they claimed legal ownership then they'd be responsible for what you post.
They get the benefits of ownership without any of the responsibility.
Yeah I was trying to shoehorn a joke that because I wrote it on Lemmy, it is now property of the Lemmy, but as I tend to do with most things in life, I half-assed it. Whole ass next time.
I didn't get it at first, but good joke, close enough to whole ass.
And it's the most generic boring non-specific review imaginable. Any Markov chain would generate better results.
And they did this since 2017 (I think)
It's branded right there on the front. It should really be free since it has ads, though!
imo if you pay for something, ads should be illegal lest it's like the company logo
What about products subsidized by advertisement to reduce the price?
Hasbro.
This is disgusting.
They have been performing horribly quarter to quarter lately, and so pretty much all of their product lines have had shit like this happen. Nerf has no springes and shoddy plastic, Wizards of the Coast are dropping a ton of middling-popular products from production, even their Marvel line has really taken a hit to quality with bad fabrics, cheap printing, etc. Everything is being cut to the barest minimum to try and claw back their profitability.
... It's stunning they can't seem to connect the dots, really.
Yeah, MTG is a flaming dumpster heap of new mechanics every other month; I got sick of it and stopped playing Arena. Then, they had their whole OGL fiasco prompt a whole lot of content makers (who, let's be real, did a lot of work for Hasbro basically for no cost to the company) to move off of 5E.
It feels like MTG has a crossover/cash grab every other month. It's just too much.
