      @@dirky9147 How have I insulted you, exactly? Also, the name of the game featured here isn't mentioned one darn time. I link to it in the description because it happens to be on Kickstarter right now but I'd argue if this is an ad for anything it's for IV Studios in general. And the video is clearly labeled as sponsored by them. And even if this IS a "commercial" (I'd argue it isn't but let's say it is) what's so insulting about one that is fun and funny and about things we as gamers think and talk about?

    I couldn't afford the Paula tier. I had to back the sock puppet tier. Sure, it isn't a deluxe edition, and I'll probably upgrade the button eyes with real buttons when I get it, but I can't wait to get my hands into this, and I am hoping that the stretch goal for the merino wool add on and possibly the cat ears get unlocked.

      I would argue that it is definitely comedy first. While it didn't feel like an ad to me, I'd argue it's an ad for IV Studios over a specific game. I'm thinking the most likely situation is that she's had the basic idea for this bit for a long time, and what better place to shoot it than at a baller studio full of willing participants at a company known for their ridiculous production and upgrades.
      I don't agree with the reservation about it being an ad, but I respect and understand it. Happy gaming, friend!
