you and me both--i get the struggle 100%
in fact i have been contemplating making a google slides presentation video where i talk about the issues with the current tetris app. i will not hesitate to slam on ads first, i don't care if they added tickets that let you skip ads. we shouldn't even have ads to skip--you're mf'in TETRIS. you sold the game automatically by being TETRIS
and i also relate to the tag that says "every time i get an ad i close the app." especially because--okay let me go in depth:
let's say you're on a bit of a challenging level and you run out of tetrominoes. you have to pick between quitting the level, pay with your in-game currency, or watch an ad. you decide "aight fine i'll watch an ad." you sit through a generic game ad for that royal whatever it's called, you click out of the ad, you finish the level with your +10 tetrominoes.
so that means you're free, right? you watched an ad which means you shouldn't receive another when the level is cleared, correct?
WRONG.
apparently according to playstudios, modern tetris is REQUIRED to have an ad ready for you when you complete a level regardless. what, does it not meet the ad quota when a player DELIBERATELY chooses to watch an ad to begrudgingly progress? what sense does that make???
and i know you can sink $3 to turn off the ads, but it's only for a month. when those 30 days are up, prepare to hear "THOSE MOBILE GAME ADS REALLY GET ON YOUR NERVES, HUH?" again as the anger of a thousand gods is thrusted into your heart... like an I piece about to score you a tetris.
thank you for coming to my ted talk
fucking hate ads. why do I need 2 watch ads 2 play fucking TETRIS I'm gonna be on a missing poster soon
