I've not done badly with this. When Ubisoft implemented the most idiotic DRM system that mankind has ever devised, I decided to never buy a game from them, EA is a no-brainer, so is Activision.While "Go Woke Go Broke" is true, when one dies, about 3 more pop up with the same shit. When it comes to the Video Game Industry, the situation is so bad, you would have to gas bomb the entire industry to get rid of the roaches that infest it. They are in every genre, every nook and cranny, to where unless you go full retro and just play/emulate classic shit, you will never see the end of it.
Fortunately, their games are by far and wide so poorly made, I barely realize I am boycotting them, since their games are about as alluring to me as a turd covered in anthrax.
I play a lot of Indie-stuff, that usually spares me the hamfisted political bullshit - and I am going to ignore any game that attempts to force this political bullshit down my throat. If that means I have a shrinking number of new games, so be it, there's a fuckton of classic games that I can enjoy instead.
But what really slays me about all this: I would describe myself as liberal, it's just that I hate being pontificated in a game that I paid for to have fun. Neither are these people mentally capable of tackling the issues that they bring up in a way that isn't grating and annoying, nor are they creative or witty enough to make them a fun addition to a game or weave them into the plot without them sticking out like a rusty nail.
