Boycotts in game like these arnt necessary the best idea anyways.
The game that can actually save itself after a bad launch (which would happen if everyone really boycotted would happen) are very few.
That said, the people boycotting would be a drop in the sea anyways, thus you would not achieve anything. This change does not affect your average joe that SOE is targeting. Sure, the hardcore playerbase from PS1 suffer a bit, if they had strong connections to an international clan, but they cant fully cater to a small minority either, those dont really pay the bills.
But once again, I rather wouldve sticked with just SOE. Also I'd hope that there wouldnt be any region blocks per se, but even if there is it doesnt affect me in any way. Just gotta hope Pro7 wont fuck us over too bad. That said, not like SOE was known for.. not fucking people up later
Also, I 100% love the developers behind PS2. This is not their fault, they couldnt help this, and I most certainly still love them and want to support their product. Fuck the high ups of SOE, but my love for Higgles & co is neverending!
