Re: That is not my problem

In Response To: Re: That is not my problem (Phoenix_9286)


: My line of thought is very simple.

: I don't support ANYTHING Activision stands for or does. Paying for a new game
: published by them, even if it's made by Bungie, is giving Activision
: money. Which might as well be saying, "Hey, I agree with everything
: you do. Go ahead and keep it up." So I don't buy it new, and
: Activision makes nothing off of me. My position is maintained, and I can
: enjoy what would hopefully be a quality product by a quality developer
: without sacrificing my morals.

: That same line of thought applies to ANYTHING I find objectionable.

: I don't understand how you can't understand my position, or how you can think
: it's crazy. Activision right now is essentially the very definition of
: raping and pillaging in the game industry. I don't support that. At all.
: So I don't give them money. It's that simple.

Simple is right - as in simply thought out.

You will enjoy the benefits of a game by a developer you love, but you won't pay for it. So there's no record of you making that purchase on the sales charts, and the developer gets $0 from you for the privilege of playing their game. Oh, but you get to rationalize away the reality that you've actually sacrificing nothing in making this stand - you still get to enjoy the game.

oh boy
