    You seem to be ranting about something else entirely, we’re talking about an announced price for a game

        Sure. See, im not gonna buy this game, and Im gonna still have my $90 dollars.

        Someone else who does want that early access for $90 will get what they want.

          That’s not even you voting with your wallet. That’s just you not buying a thing because it’s too expensive. That’s an example of price elasticity

          Voting with your wallet is this flawed concept that consumers can control companies through individuals boycotting their products.

          For example, I uninstalled hearthstone and quit Blizzard along with many others back when they let China censor a US esports player who commented on Hong Kong protests. But now I wouldn’t buy anyways, because their games suck and their payment schemes are obscene

          All they know is they lost n customers in that time period, and failed to recover m

            yeah, that’s what Im doing. I am not hurt in anyway by not buying this thing, no one is making me buy it. That is an option for literally everyone, no one has to buy it. Im not a protesting activist trying to change Blizzard, Im simply not affected by this. The only people that are, are people that want to pay $90 for early access. If they dont want to, nobody is making them.
