Video Games Plus, a gaming retailer based out of Canada, and an independent gaming retailer known as Loot Box Gaming have both stated that they won't be selling GTA 6.

Not huge retailers in the grand scheme of things, but interesting to see at least some taking a stand especially when they are almost certainly losing out on money by doing so.

    I feel like devs and artists should know about this already since this shit keeps happening and that they're enabling this behaviour. Please correct me if you think Im saying some dumbass shit but I think at this point I can't excuse them.

    So, unionize?

    Also, is it hard for someone who managed to get hired by a AAA company to get hired someone else? You'd think they'd be more valued.

    You can't correct an opinion, own it or shut up

    The game costs $100, the "lite" bullshit is just a poor deception.

    But the code leads to a download, right? Which is you owning it, just like all other digital media you've downloaded.

    "Ownership" should not imply the DRM you purchased it through can revoke said "ownership" whenever it becomes convenient. If you still have to ask permission to play something you "own", I don't call that ownership.
