As Endorph said, it's not really a personal morality thing. It's really just (mostly) trans people saying please don't.

Its less this and more like people and reviews like self flaggelating and hemming and hawing about liking the game, like dude i don't give a poo poo about your own personal moral compass

"There's no ethical consumption under capitalism," the quote meant to explain why you shouldn't blame people for buying gasoline or cheap clothing in order to live but instead the corporations which have created the conditions where you require gasoline and can only afford sweatshop produced garments, has become No Ethico Consumptio, a magic spell that wards away any responsibility you might feel for buying frivolous entertainment products. I love it

No the point is that there is no game you can buy where you aren't giving money to pieces of poo poo.

Yeah, that reviewer had to write cuz bills gotta be paid. There’s also gonna be a ton of people writing up guides and other sorts of help articles cuz that’s what people are gonna be google searching. It is what it is.

im pretty sure nobody is using comcast out of love for the brand but rather because they need high speed internet and its their only option

i think high speed internet has more of an impact on your life and ability to participate in modern society than buying a ps5 game

i dont really associate the purchase of it with personal morality its more just like. ign's review has a paragraph going 'well rowling said some transphobic stuff... thats bad... anyway 9/10.' like gently caress off. you dont care. if you cared at all youd actually take a stand lol

and the review text itself writes off issues on the basis of brand magic. It's really just bad attempts at being cute but it's embarrassing next to that sidebar

quote:

It’s understandable since there’s so much packed into this beast of an adventure, but the PS5’s promises of the death of loading screens haven’t quite been lived up to here as it’s clearly struggling to keep up with the spellcraft and whimsy of the Wizarding World.

Apraxin posted:

probably a dumb question, but now seems as good a time as any to ask: is there any significance to Wanted Dead not having a listed price/being available for pre-order on PSN when it's coming out in a week? was skimming my wishlisht and saw it's still listed as 'just announced!', and don't think i've ever seen that before. don't really pay much attention to pre-orders usually, so not sure if it's more common than i'm thinking or if there's something odd going on?

You wouldn't buy a PS2 game digitally...
