    Might as well say “stop buying AAA games”, as they all are made by corporations, who are, as we know, scummy.
    But we aren’t gonna stop, are we? Like, I don’t even play them, I play retro and indie games, but an occasional AAA still slips in.

      Pretty much this, yeah. Triple A games used to be the ones pushing the envelope, now they are exclusively just cash grabs.

      Dude, speak for yourself, the last AAA title I bought was MH:W at massive discout many years after the next iteration released. I’ve never even considered a AAA title that wasn’t several years old already, that have had plenty of time to show exactly how scummy they are.

        First of all, I never said I buy them on release. I pretty much but all of my games on discount. Except for Factorio.
        And also, you tell me to speak for myself and then immediately admit to buying an occasional AAA. So turns out I was speaking for you, too.
        But most importantly, the point was that my statement will be true for vast majority of people. They aren’t gonna stop buying AAA games.
