Forums - Gaming - Has Anyone Noticed That You Can't Skip Ads On Youtube Anymore?

I was flipping through some game trailers today (Uncharted 4 woot woot) and I noticed something off...

Wait, I can't skip the ads!?!? I'm being bombarded with 30 seconds to a minute of unskippable advertisements.

You might not think that 30 seconds is bad but when you're watching multiple videos its incredibly annoying.

Has anyone else been experiencing this or is it just me?

there are ads on youtube?



I think there are still some. There definitely was some skippable ones for me yesterday. But the 30 second ones are becoming more and more frequent.



Haven't experienced it, other than on my phone. On both my PC's, I have no issues on youtube.

You can always just use AdBlock.



Yeah I've noticed it. something that bothered me recently was that I realized I can't dislike comments anymore.



I use AdBlock, so no, I didn't notice. ._.



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

the 10-30sec ads are unskippable, longer ones are skippable
if you notice an increase of unskippable ones it just means that more of those ads are being placed for your region, possibly because longer ones are usually being skipped
