‘Sex’ doesn’t sell. Erosion of female self esteem does. The feeling of superiority over women does. Turning women into ‘things’ to be studied, scrutinized & judged and then calling it ‘sex’ does.
Sex doesn’t sell. Objectification does
Hi, I am Erica ;) How are you today? I am a manager at GameTV. A new game is launching, could you do me a favour and try to play it? Every second player will win a game t-shirt. It is a latest online game, give it a try on my page. Will take you couple of moments. Let my know what you think we can talk. Erica
Guys, League of Angels is so desperate.
Their shitty porn ads aren’t enough.
They’re resorting to making fake tumblr accounts to beg for players.
UNBELIEVABLE LOL.
But, but, but… sex itself does NOT sell? WHO KNEW!?

I find it amusing that these games go into predictable advertising spirals. It happened with Evony and now it’s happening with League of Angels.
First it’s sexy images with generic taglines.
Then it’s softcore porn images with taglines befitting hardcore porn.
Then it’s annoying as affiliate/spamming programs.
It’s pretty much the predictable pattern of a mediocre product that’s sustaining by the wishful thinking of executives and investors who are unable to learn from history.

Ultimately, most things that are offensive are also lazy and unoriginal; because you can’t reach that point of view by looking at the world honestly…You reach that point of view by taking short cuts and by just sort of repeating what someone else told you.

From now on, this is our universal answer to the supposed “creativity” of skin-revealing armor.
