    We’re gonna rely on the same group of people who wanted to ban memes to be able to draft a policy that differentiates between MMO’s, live service games, and single player games that need to be connected to the Internet? Naw dog …I ain’t trusting them old farts…VOTE WITH YOUR WALLET.

      People HAVE BEEN voting with their wallets. Nobody’s out there buying 5000 games they don’t wanna play, people are already buying only what they want. The problems is, all it takes to sustain a shitty game is a few fucking whales that none of us can compare to. Or a lot of people buying into the hype of a well-liked IP releasing a new game. Or a million other ways to get the fucking money without getting your money or mine.

      So we can keep on voting with our wallets, but let’s also try to control this cunty behavior from companies at government level instead of basically “thoughts and prayers”.
