I Hate Lily's Garden !
EA, in their infinite wisdom, has decided that every other ad I see nowadays should be an ad for Lily's Garden. How they came to this conclusion is beyond my ken. Could their choice be guided by my interaction with lesser known classic rock bands on YouTube?
I frequently watch videos by the likes of Savoy Brown, Blue Oyster Cult and Wishbone Ash. On Facebook, I regularly interact with virtually every political ad I come across. I belong to 3 political groups and 7 songwriter groups.
Is this sufficient for EAs attempt to entice me with offers to subscribe to a game designed by and for post-pubescent teen age girls? If there is a female version of chauvinistic, this game must rate high on that scale. The ads i see are little more than a compendium of male stereotypes she becomes determined to avoid, often by violent imaginings.
Another thing- these ads are getting trickier. The x to dismiss these ads show up only after they have twice in 5 seconds mentioned the name of the game. There is no longer any warning that you will lose your reward if you continue. No, you just got Madison Avenue messaged for free. The after the ad ends, you have to watch 15 seconds of a screen asking you which of 2 imperceptible gardens is superior to the other. Bath. Give me back Dungeons and Warriors.
