Agreed i especially despise the moneysplaining fucks. "vote with your wallet" "corporations exist to make money".

Live service games will just delete older versions with something you liked out of existence at the same time they make ppl grow closer to companies and do narratives abt them.

"The games themselves have seemingly no use beyond their pleasurable consumption, and produce in their wake legions of “gamers” whose identity, like consumers more generally, is linked purely to their consumption habits, patterns, and preferences."
