Fantasy this.
I don't want to be judgemental, but this looks like your bizarre Western trend of Cancel Culture, even if the idea behind it is just. I was always taught to judge the product itself, not the producer. If the game is fine, I would play it. And it goes deeper than that, way more nuances.
When you boycott a huge brand, you boycott a lot of people. Large companies often have multiple teams working on games, with different styles, different working ethics. Sometimes, they employ various freelancers, outsource to personal smaller brands. So if you're thinking that you're getting back at some inhuman corporate suits with such boycotting, you're far from the truth. They can afford to cut their losses. But various programmers, designers, artists, musicians can't. And you screw them over the most.
It's also even more bizarre to see the praise of Steam in such thread. It was the first service to bite a piece out of PC gaming's digital distribution industry, yes. But assuming that it saved PC gaming, the gaming on the most accessible, most flexible, most technologically sophisticated platform is preposterous. There was nothing to save, PC gaming was booming way before Valve. If it wasn't them, it would've been Microsoft.
