    Honestly I appreciate them buying it and expressing the disappointment in Steam reviews. It is the best way to get attention to it since people aren’t going to refrain from buying it. Boycotts don’t work so people expressing their thoughts is the best we got.

      “boycotts don’t work” lmao

      The gaming community is incapable of executing an effective boycott because they cannot go 5 minutes without the thing they like. So they’ll pre-order garbage, never learn their lesson, and complain the whole time while paying a premium, instead of exercising restraint and playing something else - like one of their 4,000 unplayed games in their bought library.

        If that’s the case, then explain exactly why Sony backed off of the account requirement for Helldivers 2

            So, literally the same strategy that gamers are going for here. And you said their methods never work, yet here we are with an example of it working

              Where? You need to read more carefully, it’s causing you to write nonsense.
