That’s kind of where I’m at with Borderlands 4 and that shit stain Randy Pitchford. His situation isn’t as bad as this I think, but it’s a deal breaker none the less. Don’t bite the hand that feeds mother fuckers.
I’m wondering if the first one needs to go from a game I recommend highly (or upvote recommendations of if I’m too late) to one I no longer acknowledge because the same assholes probably get paid from each of those sales, too.
That’s exactly what I did after Activision fucked over Infinity Ward. I used to play them all the time, but haven’t bought anything Call of Duty since.
Doesn’t mean much, but I’m doing what little I can.
I can say that personally, I do hesitate if I see a game with mixed reviews and will at least check out why people don’t like it. And if steam says a high volume of “irrelevant” (or whatever word they use) reviews are not shown, I’ll click through to see what they are about to decide for myself if they are relevant or just losers whining about “woke” shit.

Went from an “instant buy” to a “never purchase on principle”. Such a shame.

Il buy it on sale once the game tanks and they fire that asshole.
But I haven’t been looking forward to a game as much as Subnautica 2, and now it’s off the radar…
No dont review bomb, just dont buy it at all. Review bomb does absolutely nothing. Fuck krafton.

Yeah, from a user standpoint, but companies won’t use it as much of a metric as they do sales.
Too bad everyone will buy it anyway. Point me to a boycott of a video game that actually materialized… I’ll wait…
This isnt anywhere near the level of mainstream game that most of these boycotts are focused on. It’s definitely a more niche audience.
The biggest thing is if streamers get in on the boycott. That’ll affect sales the most.
I know, people are pushovers.
God damn, I was looking forward to it but that’s fucked up.
Yar har, fiddle-dee-dee Do what you want cuz a pirate is free…

Yo ho ho and a magnet link for thee.
