Bitching online while still pre-ordering that shit is not activism lol
Your comment is a perfect example of what OP is talking about. You believe that if gamers changed their purchasing decisions on mass, then companies would have to change. What is that if not activism? You’re treating capitalism as though it were a democracy.
And you’re wrong btw, Game companies make games for investors, not gamers. If you don’t believe me then please explain why so many live service games get made even though gamers have clearly voted against them with their wallets.
Games is 100% discretionary spending. as long as idiots keep spending money, the merchant will keep selling low quality engagement slop…
You bitching online about it while giving company money is an idiotic exercise. Deny them profit and spend your money with a merchant that delivers what is advertised. I am amazed at the amount of push back this basic concept gets. God forbid peasants have own their shiti consumption patterns. God forbid they have to change any of it.
I think this helps explain the ridiculous phenomena of video-game-activism that’s so vocal and present on the internet.
