It does but only against people who don't have corporate backing

Your wallet isn't big enough.

you're being out-voted
also it takes time to learn
in an industry where 1-2 years between learning attempts is normal, it takes a long time

It absolutely does work. You're just being outvoted.

Because you're not the only one with a wallet.

>vote
>lose vote
>WTF THIS ISNT WORKING
Maybe just dont touch shitty ganes and enjoy the good ones, there are literally thousands out there you could play, but you cry over COD and FIFA selling gorrilions because you didnt buy it

Democracy doesn't work.

Because you can't use your wallet to vote against something. You either vote in favor of it or you don't vote. Also people voting in favor get as many votes as they want.
Welcome to the modern vidya industry

Same reason voting doesn't work

jews?

Because your vote is in the minority

Because the majority either isn't doing it or is voting against you. It only works if it's a ton of people.

The majority of voters are easily manipulated by the people in charge jingling their proverbial keys

not enough people agree with your views, you're not the center of attention

Just look at 2042. Some retards bought it but they still reported that it flopped during their annual report.

People ARE learning but slowly. Hopefully they got burned enough by preordering the super special deluxe edition that they never make the same mistake again.

it does, subvert somewhere else

Same reason voting with your vote doesn't work. An oligarchy of pedophiles controls everything and have explicitly designed our social systems so that commoners don't have any power.

it does work, problem is that there's just too many retards also voting with their wallet. Just like a normal election

It can work under a normal sense, as you'll hear releases from major titles having disappointing sales from time to time because it's shit, but those companies have a large build up of money to just try again because it's usually an established IPs.
Now whales on the other hand. Fuck whales. I don't care under what pretext they decide to drop thousands of dollars on loot boxes or rolls, be it a genuine retard who pisses away his life savings or a streamer pissing away other retards donations to make a video, all it does is convince devs and publishers that it's something worth pursuing. A single whale can invalidate hundreds of people who lost interest in a game and hope for something better. They're part of the reason we can't have nice things any more.

Because retards are the ones with the most money

You will never outvote a multi-million dollar companies marketing budget
