    Yeah I agree somewhat, but I feel like they are being used specifically to emphasize the time period of a futuristic 1986, which is when the game takes place. I didn’t hate it tbh

      Fair enough. I love the 80s vibe otherwise, but the brands have the awkward blocking and lingering-too-long-shot quality of bad product placement. Maybe in the final product it will make more sense if it’s supposed to be thematic and not just paid sponsorship.
