    It’s the coporatization of video games and demand that profits go up every quarter. It doesn’t matter if a game is not functional and does not run, everybody in the world must pay $200 for every single release that is ever made, plus $100 for DLC, plus $50 to change character’s appearanc.

    It doesn’t matter if a game does not load, everybidy must still be gratful that they are allowed to buy it.

      To the same tune, it doesn’t matter if the game is successful and an amazing game, if they can’t squeeze every potential penny out of the customers they close it.

      It is a simple problem to solve. Quit watching their ads, tuning into their media, and playing their games no matter what they put out. Get online and say so. The internet is scraped and making such comments will be found. A bad game review is a win for those making these decisions. It shows that they made crap but you still bought it. It is a message that hype and ads/media are all that matter. Start saying you are indifferent, used to be a customer, and will not purchase as long as XYZ is in charge or they are doing ABC, and that information will make a difference, even here.

      For instance, this account has been dox’d on Lemmy. I know it, but do not care. I see content suggestions tailored to stuff I have talked about on here even though I minimize my online fingerprint for the most part. Everything public is scaped and the data is filtering down to relevant sources. This is the modern world. So get the asshats fired.
