    Of course, Fifa is very profitable even to this day. The FUT mechanics have gambling mechanics (loot packs etc…) it is why it is such a sh*t and predatory system.

    The action I took personally wasn’t about a delusion of me thinking that just me was gonna make an impact.

    But businesses count on people not taking action because of the mentality “What would change?” and “Just me boycotting doesn’,t matter so why would I?”.

    It is much more about putting up a boundary for yourself and enforcing it. I didn’t feel like supporting a company that put out such predatory practices so the thing that I can do is to vote with my wallet, which I did.

    If I cannot even do the above myself than I have no right in lecturing others.

    I don’t know how much people will leave Reddit but I have no reason to stay and fund their endeavors.

    The thing that I do know is when businesses have a monopoly for a service/product they provide the money isn’t gonna go to benefit the user but to maximize profits.

    The users of Reddit are gonna get railed in the end, one way or the other.
