So they spent advertising money on freelance shills. Ok, that is just another form of advertising like paying an advertising company to do advertising.
Yes, someone who promotes a product while hiding the fact that they’ve been paid to promote the product. Streamers generally say “this is a sponsored stream” to avoid lawsuits.
If someone starts off saying “this is a sponsores stream” then yes, that is correct. It’s illegal to not disclose when media is an advertisement in most of the world. I’m pretty sure it’s against the TOS of most streaming sites, too.
Well I’ve certainly never heard that before and that’s not what the definition of the word is from what I’m seeing but I guess I can understand using that as a distinction.
A shill, also called a plant or a stooge, is a person who publicly helps or gives credibility to a person or organization without disclosing that they have a close relationship with said person or organization, or have been paid to do so.
Shill has primarily been used as an insult for the past 50 years in the way I’m defining it here. I don’t believe you’ve never heard it used to mean that.
one who acts as a decoy (as for a pitchman or gambler)
Literally on that same page.
a person who poses as a customer in order to decoy others into participating, as at a gambling house, auction, confidence game, etc.
I think everything you quoted there would accurately describe influencers being paid to play a game. As to whether you believe me or not, don’t really care. Why you keep digging this hole for no reason whatsoever seems rather odd to me, as does being so unnecessarily hostile for no reason. Have a good one.
Its sad that a star wars game can be forgotten about. Jedi fallen order had a gimmick (soulslike deflecting). Battlefield had its multiplayer. Outlaws had… Far cry? Hitman? I dont know…
