Let's go over a few things - <br><br>* I like your vids, so don't take anything I'm about to say as personal insult, etc. it's just discussion, and I'm just sharing my view on it.<br>* I 100% disagree with your premise at the end about it translating to being the end user's problem. It's not. It really is "their" problem, not ours and I'll tell you exactly why. We choose when to get our wallets out,  not them. So let's say they pass that bill and now dirty companies like EA / Activision / Ubisoft decide that they're going to crank up the ads to "make up the difference" - well, my personal hope is that people would stop buying the games. I already don't buy EA / Activision games along with many gamers, and only rarely buy Ubisoft games. I'd like to think gamers would wise up a bit as the experience continues to worsen. As far as I'm concerned, those (3) companies can go out business and I wouldn't give the slightest fuck - good riddance as far as I'm concerned. Same for T2, Gearbox (can't stand Randy Pitchford), along with any gaming developer / publisher that goes along with Epic Exclusives (I'll pirate any of those that I decide I want to play). <br><br>I'll give an example related to hardware - NVidia released Turing back in like October of 2018 and their pricing scheme has been greedy as fuck. As a result, thankfully, many consumers decided not to buy what they were selling - literally, myself included. Their stock's been in the shitter ever since. They will either start offering hardware at better prices, or their stock and revenue will continue to drop. It's their call - it's their problem. Not ours. And it's the same with gaming. <br><br>Consumers rule this thing. We decide what direction it goes with our wallets. I can only speak for me, but when companies release a game I want to check out, I go through a series of "checks" into the game to decide if it's worthy of my money or not - <br><br>* Does the game have microtransactions? If so, how intrusive are they (multiplayer or singleplayer - multiplayer I don't give a shit about because I don't really play multiplayer) Does the game have multi-gpu support? Does the PC version have a delay versus consoles? Who is the publisher / developer, are they worthy of my trust based on previous behavior? Do they sell the game at a store where I buy games?<br><br>The answers to those questions and more will be weighed to decide whether I pirate the game to essentially "demo" it before buying it, etc. or maybe not buying it at all depending on the level of infractions the developer &amp; publisher rack up. People need to sack up and fight these assholes straight up with their wallets. That's the only vote that counts in this war.
