The ad is intentional. When it appeared is the issue. I’ve seen similar ads in multiple games when at the title screen.
Halo will pop an ad for new content, battle pass sales, etc. Hitman had ads for new content. NHL 23 showed ads for new content… All on the opening screens before getting in-game. I imagine the bug here is that the popup was triggered by an overlay or menu transition without excluding it during gameplay.
Also, it’s not like it was an ad for Pepsi or something. It was an Assassin’s Creed game showing an ad for an Assassin’s Creed sale.
If you haven’t tried No Man’s Sky in VR, you’re really missing out. I have about 800 hours in it (90% in VR) and still go back to it day 1 if a new Expedition.
Walkabout Mini golf is a must-have.
Myst and Riven are fantastic in VR.
Star Wars Squadrons, Project Wingman, MS Flight Simulator… Pretty much any flying game with a HOTAS setup is great in VR.
Same can be said for racing games with a wheel setup.
Alyx is truly fabulous, but there are plenty of other great VR experiences to be had.
And that’s not even including what’s available with the VR injection mods. Cyberpunk in VR is pretty awesome, even with the jank that comes with playing a pancake game in VR.
