Thats because I know that gamers are very passionate people. Like you cant tell someone thats deeply in love with another person to stop seeing that person because theyre not good for them. That wont help. You have to go to the person theyre in love with and tell them not to be abusive.

 

You know what I mean?

The difference is, that issue exists between two people.  This issue exists between hundreds of millions of people, where people can influence the industry in a negative (or positive) manner.  If that person who loves the other chooses to remain with them (and you're right, trying to tell a friend he/she's no good for you doesn't work...been on both sides of that coin), that effects their lives...not a good chunk of the populace.

And this situation is also slightly more deceptive, because if you make a bad games purchase, you're just out $60 bucks.  If several million people make the same mistake, however, it tells companies they can continue on as they have been, without repercussion.  We have to show them there's repercussions.
