Stupid Game Advert

So... I just saw this.

It's so short, it just skims over my mind. It has no effect on me whatsoever.

Apparently, both the girls are porn stars (or at least one of them is, I can't remember) and the one who dressed up as red riding hood is pissed because she thought it was something for a movie.

Anyway.
The reason it has very little impact for me is due to many reasons.

1. It's way too damn short; 40 seconds length, including the criminally short gameplay footage and the ERSB rating at the start.

2. Disappointingly politically correct, but I guess this is a trailer for a game, after all. That kids are likely to play.
Oh wait.

3. Because of it's PC rating, they have to cut the kiss thing short. And it was a damn shame, too.

4. It doesn't even have the Evony syndrome, because both woman aren't showing much - if any - cleavage or parts of their body.
There's... nothing to look at.

5. There's a fat guy in the background and he does all the talking.
Pretty much a 50. cal round to the head instantly for attracting your male audience, on top of everything else mentioned.

Terrible ad. At least Evony had a shred of dignity left. A shred so thin it would make a strand of hair look fat, yes, but still.

For an ad that starts off the way it did, it failed spectacularly.
