The ads on that page are so shit that I stopped trying to read three paragraphs in after I tried to close the popup, floating, and auto playing video and the x didn't work.

You should use an adblocker. I didn't see any of the things you described.

This is why I rarely bother clicking through on articles. So many sites are straight up unusable if they're not accessed through an army of ad/script blockers. Then they whine that you're denying them revenue.

Fwiw, the game is called Esoteric Ebb. Looks interesting.

Thanks! The little I read sounded interesting and I love Disco Elysium, so I'll keep an eye on it.
