Do you really need a list to tell you what to buy and not buy?
I mean it really doesn't take that much effort to avoid those companies you don't like.
Keeping a community list seems stupid, everyone has different things they like and don't like, and the gaming community isn't a personal army, despite what others might think.
Eh with the amount of bs companies do it gets pretty hard to keep track of
Plus most people don't really have the time to dig into all of that
I think the point I was more getting at is that the bullshit that companies do is extremely subjective, and everyone has their own different things that they feel are important issues. But you're not wrong. There is a lot of BS to keep track of.
And I'm thinking that if it's related to something you do actually care about, you should be digging into it. Plenty of people are trying to mislead people all the time, and it's so easy to get swept up in fake outrage if you don't actually stop to question things.
That's why a bunch of people are angry at a consulting firm for a bunch of different game studios right now. Because somebody literally just made a list of things for people to be mad at.
Damn, man. Are you alright? Why are you so stressed?
