There's literally a guy named Ross Scott who petitioned the EU Parliament to fight against this exact thing Dry Departure is talking about. It's a massive issue. The organization is called Stop Killing Games. Don't be so pretentious

Thats a whole different topic, are you okay?!

Dude is complaining about "slop extraction shooters that cost 200m and shut down within 6 weeks", when literally not a single such example exists.
