Yep, and like with almost every other protest or “boycott” these days, it’s all performative. Most of the people “boycotting” will be online playing their digital games during that week, guaranteed.
It’s much simpler, this tweet from one dude won’t have the reach to really make any impact. Awareness is the problem more than willpower, and it’s werid that we think anyone who “broke” the boycott was even aware to begin with. Or cares.
Be careful, the dude above seems to be a shill of some sort for kernel level anti-cheat/DRM or potentially a large corporation. Or just a full on rightoid.
Not really sure what you were reading, but I specifically said that most of the people taking part in this boycott, however few, will break said boycott and play digitally bought games anyway.
But that’s not what I said. Again, I said that those who have joined this boycott will still likely play their digital games on their ps5 during the “boycott”.
I quote myself:
most of the people “boycotting”
If you don’t know about the boycott, you’re not boycotting.
I’ve very clearly and explicitly pointed out to you twice now how you either misread or misinterpreted what I said even though it’s very clear. I’m hoping I don’t need to do it a third time because that would be sad.
I’m saying you’re premise is flawed, unprovable, and simply bad. Does that get it through to you? You’re making unfounded assumptions and triping down doesn’t make it more correct.
You keep saying that I’m talking about people who don’t even know about this “boycott”, despite my original comment clearly specifically talking about people who do know about it.

And I’m saying that’s a bad faith statement, as if you know every single person who didn’t boycott pledged to boycott or even know of the boycott.
But that’s not what I said. Again, I said that those who have joined this boycott will still likely play their digital games on their ps5 during the “boycott”.

What’s my unfounded assumption?
