      Boycotts don’t stop EA money. They have superbowl ad money. The market of consumers that really just don’t give a shit about this is way too large, and they will go with what’s advertised to them constantly.

      I’m not saying don’t boycott them. I have for decades. I’ve preached that for decades. It doesn’t work, the AAA dev is going to still have the main stage during every gaming convention and there will still be some weird ass overnight line to be the first one to buy corporate slop game 2026.

        This basically describes society as a whole. The lowest denominators of society, at least 60% of the population , dictate how all of us live and die. That’s why things like Facebook exist. That’s why we let billionaires exist. That’s how people like Trump become leaders of the free world. That’s why we allow the “lobby” to make laws that only benefit a small group. Eradicate the idiots to solve all the worlds problems 😆
