I think the major problem I have with this video isn't actually even a disagreement, per se. I dislike the statement that the trade tariffs are our problem because the hardware developers will not take that loss and instead pass it on to us - my argument is this: this is only a problem for the people lacking impulse- or self-contol. These are the types who will buy the p2w packs in FIFA and 2K anyway.<br><br>My answer to this is simple and has been bandied about for the past ten years: if the hardware and software developers think that I'm going to absorb any kind of net loss on their part, they are out of their fucking minds. I just won't spend my money on their product.<br><br>I flatly refuse to preorder any game these days until it is made clear whether or not it has microtransactions - if it does, I will not buy it. I will not support such a game or a developer. If Sony thinks it is acceptable to charge me, the end user, an additional 25% to buy one of its products, I won't buy it.<br><br>Yes, it's the old vote with your wallet shtick, and I get that no one really thinks it will ever work. But here's the thing: it's never going to work until people actually start doing it.<br><br><br>Understand, we as consumers have immense control over these companies and corporations - if enough consumers come together to boycott a product, the producer <b>will</b> take notice.<br><br>So why aren't more people who despise these AAA developers doing so? We don't <b>need</b> Big Government to take care of a problem that we as consumers can solve.
