Tbh my issue is not so much games as Russian players. Don't wanna play with them at all so I use a Vpn to get me us east servers. Worth it not to put up with them. Grant If i didn't wanna deal with them I shouldn't play CS2 or Hunt showdown.

Using a vpn only goes so far as some games (Dayz for example) won't let you play using one.

if you have no issue buying russian games, your home will be bombed next by russians. believe me, I'm Ukrainian living in Kyiv, Ukraine.

That's not what I said ....what makes you think some who expressly doesn't wanna play with Russians would suddenly wanna buy Russian made games.
