Yaaaawn. I like how game journalists think they can change the world by talking about the issues and that's it. I mean those same websites that doom-monger about state of game industry, review and hype the big moneymakers of those corporations.

We as the customers and players are on the receiving end of their rant (this cascade of articles been going for a couple of months), but guess what capitalism will always win against powerless and meaningless virtue signalling in the form of these opinion pieces. This is bigger than video games or entertainment industry. Unless people go out on the streets and truly revolt against the corporations, NOTHING will change. Equal distribution of wealth and fair rights for workers don't happen because we talk about it. We need to fight for it.

Did you really just claim that journalists can not change the world by talking about issues?
