  • Of course always vote with your wallet. Just saying it’s a complex topic and it’s one thing to boycott it because Rowling profits off it, but you’re also excluding the hundreds of hard working game developers who put years of their life towards a legitimately good game.

    Unfortunately, because of the existence of shareholders, pretty much anything non indie is going to be profiting off exploitative rich people with generally loads of prejudice against marginalised groups. Even indie games you’re kinda stuck, look at factorio for example. Or you’re supporting the storefront. There may be ways to consume games ethically maybe but there’s always a catch somewhere. Informing consumers of these choices is important, but judging them for it is reductive considering the only winning move is not to play.
