    I feel like if you want to boycott a game but really can’t resist the urge to play it the least you could do is just pirate it instead of buying it

      Piracy is often one of the few ways to playtest a game without having to spend money to find out you don’t like it.

        It used to be you could get a demo of a game to try it out, but that stopped being a thing a while back…presumably because game studios know their games suck and don’t want people to realize it until it’s too late.
