Patents Memes

You just spent 47 minutes fighting a boss that killed you 23 times, your hands are shaking from adrenaline, your heart is pounding like a jackhammer, and you're FINALLY ready to see what epic loot awaits you... but WAIT! Microsoft has a better idea: how about a nice refreshing ad for car insurance? Or maybe some mobile game garbage? Imagine defeating the final boss, absolutely DRENCHED in sweat and glory, only to have the emotional payoff interrupted by "HAVE YOU HEARD ABOUT OUR LORD AND SAVIOR RAID SHADOW LEGENDS?" The sheer audacity of filing a patent for this is genuinely diabolical. It's like they sat in a boardroom and asked "How can we make gamers hate us even MORE?" and someone raised their hand with this nuclear option. The fact that they actually PATENTED this war crime means they're dead serious about weaponizing the most cathartic moments in gaming. Truly villainous behavior.
