This is the weirdly unlearnable realization that’s going to hit third party app reddit users in 6 or so weeks. Because Reddit will just truck along unchanged.
I haven’t played a Blizzard game or touched anything even close to related to Battle Net in years. I did my part. In 30 years Blizzard will still be there, and I’ll have had no impact, but that won’t make me regret a thing. It was just some video games that I’ll have missed out on. I’m already missing out on video games as is, every single person is, and time will only increase the amount. Blizzard isn’t and will never be worth being “the ones” at the top of that mindspace.
I still find the fact somewhat bewildering. The gaming industry is literally the only industry that I can think of that can get away with pissing their customers right in the face with anti-consumer ethics. Somehow noone seems to care here. Other entertainment industries seems to have to be mindful with PR, gaming industry somehow doesnt. No matter how big the scandal, gamers seem to easily forget or just dont care. And I fear its mostly the latter.
Love to see yet again that it doesn’t matter how horrible of a company you are, it literally doesn’t matter, nobody cares, consumerism wins.
