Accept that there are plenty of other fantastic games out there (even games in the same vein as D2), so you don't need that particular game in order to have fun. You can entertain yourself by supporting better companies instead. Buy a used copy (difficult on PC, unfortunately) or keep playing the original instead of buying the remake Dance to a catchy song like this one to help you feel better: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SLMJpHihykI At the end of the day, there's no need to support companies you disapprove of, which in turn means there's no reason to do so. So just don't. If they want your money, they can earn it. Zareth posted... Yeah I think a lot of the "I'm not gonna support this company that treats it's employees like s*" mindset fails to realize that if the company does poorly, its the employees who are going to suffer the losses, not the people treating them like s. Capitalism. Realistically, the employees being mistreated at these companies are the ones that will be laid off en masse the next time Kotick wants to pump his numbers to show off to shareholders, regardless of how well the company is doing. They will never have any kind of job security and will never be paid a decent wage, so you're not jeopardizing that by hurting the corporation's revenue. --- This is my signature.
