Boycott Obsidian and Microsoft entirely
I've discovered that Microsoft has been pushing for these DEI initiatives towards companies like Obsidian for this reason I'm completely boycotting all games that are Tied to Microsoft and I suggest you do the same and tell other people about it too.
According to this whistleblower, an ex-employee from Obsidian Entertainment, Microsoft started pushing these DEI initiatives. It started with adding your pronouns to your emails.

Ex-Obsidian Whistleblower: Matt Hansen is Pure EVIL...

A whistleblower from Obsidian Entertainment has come forward with some seriously WILD information about the studio's internal culture under Microsoft's ownership, and more specifically, how Matt Hansen grew to power over there.


The following insights they've given to me have painted quite the 'grim' picture of a once-thriving creative environment that's unfortunately devolved into a corporate-driven leftist echo chamber where agendas and ideologies now far outweigh any actual passion for game development. This former employee, who we'll call "Doe" for anonymity, describes a workplace completely overrun by external influences, misguided priorities, and a toxic atmosphere that ultimately drove him out.


The center of this catastrophe of a workplace? None other than Matt Hansen. Some of the stuff I was told about him is going to blow your mind...

For those defending this kind of behavior, MICROSOFT and these developers don’t care about you. They aren’t on anyone’s side. This entire culture of fostering hatred in development studios through these agendas is designed to divide us all into endless bickering. In general, the whole DEI/WOKE agenda needs to be dismantled.

Thanks to normies, eating slop without asking questions, i dont see Microsoft changing their terrible business practices anytime soon.
What would Forza need pronoun options for, your car?! LMAO
Yup. That garbage is one of reasons why it makes me not want to touch Microsoft products anymore. I would move to Linux completely right now if i can, but unfortunately My Razer peripherals is very Reliant on Windows than Linux. Not to mention my Meta slop Quest 2 headset i own needs Windows as well.

I hope people realize that Microsoft is one of the last companies you want to give your money to.

It's actually not that hard to boycott both. There are great games out there to choose from.

If you refuse to buy a garbage game because it's just garbage (e.g. crashes all the time 12 fps without framegen or DSLSLLSSS+ , bad story, bad writing, unimmersive world etc.) , can someone still call that "boycotting" ?

100% agree with OP.

I'm more than willing to cripple myself with Linux if I have to.
I did use Ubuntu for a year or two during the Windows Vista era

Linux is pretty darned hot, and it's only getting better. Linux Mint has been working great for me.

Other than this windows 10 Os which i got 5 years ish ago. i have been boycotting them for years now.

I'm seriously considering Linux next.

It’s clear Microsoft & Xbox have been done making good games for a long time now. They use gaming as a medium to further their agenda
