    Default Is Aeria getting desperate or something?

    The Scarlet Blade ads on OnRPG are getting a bit pathetic. Jesus it's a MMORPG, not an eroge.

    They just remind me of the "Evony" ads from way back when. Those were hilarious because they tried to sexualize a RTS game apparently.

    risque*

    Added Note: one of the Aeria ads currently on my screen says "SHE HAS NO SAFE WORD"

    I'd say it's less about the company being desperate and more about the company being completely out of touch, just like the vast majority of these suit-and-tie corporate-machine-produced games polluting the market these days.

    The most hilarious advertisement in the rotation for this terribad Scarlet Blade game, though, has got to be the one that calls it the "MOST ANTICIPATED MMO OF 2013".

    They are just copying Evony by defiling the minds of young children.

    I mean... No offense to people who enjoy playing these games, but these ads aren't school-safe, and I am disappointed with OnRPG for OK'ing some of the overly-sexualized ads.

    You should see the ones I heard the sales team blocked. These are softcore in comparison. Also school-safe forums are overrated.

    I'm glad that someone filtered out that stuff. And... No thanks (I don't want to see them).
    I know a lot of people don't care, but I don't bother visiting the site now without hiding the ads.

    I'm wondering if Scarlet Blade will be playable with the Ju-C Air perifferal, it'de defenitly make sense! xD
    For those of you lucky enough not to know what that is, don't google it. It's a controler created by (the japanese?) that goes onto the males genetalia.... and has a thumbstick at the tip.
