I can't start boycotting a company that I've been boycotting for well over a decade.

Double boycott

So, repeatedly buy and return games?

Will my steam account get banned if I pre-order every one of their games, click play for 5 minutes then instantly refund? I have my faith, but I don't know if they'd see that as abuse of their refund policy.

Why punish valve? Do that shit through origin.

[–] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago

I don't want to punish my computer by installing origin.

Idk it'd be pretty cool to see steam go "sorry, your games are too unreliable and too much of a risk now." And stop offering them. And then they'll go out of business when the only people buying their games are the 10 people with origin installed.

Last thing I bought from them was Mass Effect (only the first one) circa 2008 I think.
