killamch89 Posted January 8 Author Share Posted January 8 I think ads in free-to-play games are acceptable if they're non-intrusive and limited. For example, ad placements in natural spots like billboards in racing games could even enhance immersion. But if they disrupt gameplay or become overly aggressive, it'll alienate players and tarnish Xbox’s reputation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
