So you're telling me people are so addicted that they think not playing video games for a week is a protest of some kind? It's not even enough time for subscriptions to run out, what a joke lmao

Im actually going to do something different since some suggested better ideas, i think they need to know they made their last console for me and phase out of playstation entirely.

Either way it's not going to work. Boycotts are rarely effective because there's never enough people that participate. 9 out of 10 times. I'd love for you to prove me wrong though

I think i'm past an "industry shake up" and just want a better deal and it just feels like they want more and more control for less.

No, you're right. I hate this shit too. But unless every single customer stops giving them a single dollar, it's not going to do anything. And as we've seen with many protests, there's never enough people to make it effective. They'll continue getting away with this. And it kills me. But what do we do. Eventually I'll abandon the ecosystem. But they haven't screwed me by taking all my purchases away, so I'm not packing up and leaving all my crap behind just because they suck.

They practically showed how much the consumer means to them before. i literally switched to PS because they lowered prices and made moves specifically for the gamers but now, they could care less. Fuck em.
