That's Okay. I Don't Mind At All And I Hope You Do Enjoy My Response That Is In No Way A Silly And Overspecific Attempt To TrOlL Back (jokingly).

Can you install Firefox?

In Firefox you should be able to install the add-on "uBlock origin". No additional tweaking of settings required.

With Firefox you can browse the web including pages like YouTube.

You're late. ;) The Simpsons, I mean, South Park already did that in 2015: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truth_and_Advertising

That’s totally inappropriate. It’s lewd, lascivious, salacious, outrageous. - Jackie Chiles

It's phonetic writing of a heavy accent and it's several words without spaces in between to emphasis the slangyness.

Translates to: "Say what? They must have shit in your brain."

I see where you're coming from. There are hard mechanics in many games that are part of what makes the game fun for its players.

However, when I play Dark Souls, I know a part is difficult, because the developers wanted it this way and did not have alternative motives. But when I can pay for difficulty settings, I never know if I'm being "reasonably" challenged or being milked.

If you enjoy the given challenges of this game, good for you. I think many of the critics do, too. However, for them (and me) it's a matter of principle, because we fear that the situation will get worse - ultimately leading to the mobile gaming industry that uses all of humanity's knowledge of psychology to make people spend more money than they can afford.

I heard that fast travel is very limited, but that you can buy fast travel items for real world money.

The problem with that is: the goal of the game makers should be to make the game as enjoyable and fun as possible to sell as many copies as possible.

However, with such micro transactions your goal now is to add annoying stuff to the a level that maximises your profits. How much you can annoy your customers, depends mainly on the conditioning of your target audience.

So the more of that stuff is accepted and financially rewarded by customers, the more annoying games will become to increase the "need" to sell you a relieve.

Here I was, ready to answer the question, but you were already there, while also posting the originally post...
As if you were at two places at the same time! Quite the maneuver!
