Thread: Is anyone else disgusted by the theme of the Game of War advertisements?

These adverts are ubiquitous.

I Tivo the few things I watch on broadcast TV and then skip over the ads. So, what are these ads about?

I guess it is for a video game. The theme seems to be set in a medieval world where a queen that looks like she stepped out of a model agency spends her times in hot tubs while thousands of men lay down their lives to protect her empire. When one is attacked, her retainers quickly dry her off and dress her so she can abandon her army and go build another empire.

The only thing missing is for someone to challenge the queen and her angry retort "What difference does it make?"

Plus they paid her 40 million dollars for the commercial....

Ehh, it was great to look at her. That's all I got from the advert. Does that make me want to play the game? no. Does it offend me? No. As I have pointed out before, the levels of misandry are just as high as air pollution. You just get used to it. Plus, let's be honest, it's a tatty little android app. Who cares?

Ive seen youtube comments to those videos, guys saying ''I will be your hero'' ''unworldy beautiful'' etc. How easily men are fooled by makeup and lighting huh.

They are willing slaves. They cannot be freed because they don't want to be free. Let them be. The best thing to do is wish them well and move on.

Her: "Will you be my hero?"

Me: "Nope."

There was one particular ad where the beautiful queen is bathing whe her handmaidens attend to her, while the city she is in is under siege. Buildings are being destroyed and men are fighting and dying to protect her realm. And what does she do? She dons her fancy robe and with an escort, nonchalantly rides out of town to set up shop elsewhere.

It is a telling story that the ad portrays. One that all men everywhere should take note of. Because it is the situation that we men of the west are in. We are getting killed by the forces of tyranny and oppression while the womenfolk laugh and bathe in luxury. And when too many men beco e casualties, and cannot maintain her life of lesure? She just moves on.

The game looks pretty cool though. I always did enjoy real time strtegy games like the Age of Empire series. I don't have time to play games much anymore, so I probably will not play it.

yeah, i'm tired of it. her boobs are nice, but its kind of rediculous. how can they sell a game with boobs when everyone has the internet, i don't know.

War is a "game?"

We've cycled a couple of million men through a few war zones since 2001, and we can think of war as a game?

Nothing about the ad makes me want to play the game. Sure, her breasts jiggle a bit, and she's pretty enough, but equating that to wanting to play a war game? Advertisers must be desperate...

Or else they're cocking a snook at Anita Sarkeesian (or is that Snarkeezian - or Sarcastrian?) Blonde eye-candy with jiggly boobs and a very-contoured armor breastplate. Just the meme to make Anita scream (giggles).

I liked her better when all she did was model skimpy undies.

I have seen it a few times now and I'll have to say they do a swell job of promoting her rack. Dairy grade; on the farm she would be a good milker, hopefully with a high butterfat content. Moo!

The rest of the game shots are reminding me of a Candy Crush advert.

You say that like it is a bad thing.

Damn, I forgot tthe sarcasm notation.

For the farm; you can have a cow that has a bag so large it drags on the ground causing many health problems for the cow and the product. Same with the humans too.

For the game; I remember some early computers games for girls that we had for our kids. Candy crush has that same look and feel. Tee Hee! More information than I would ever want to know about it thanks to my Facedbook "friends."

Like Benghazi?

don't matter to me.. I don't play that anyway... (I'd rather play StarCraft or Command and Conquer... as for mobile games.. I'm much more interested in Pokemon Go - at least it gives me an excuse to get out and get some exercise)
