It sucks that I can't boycott their garbage anymore than I already do.

Not sure I'd really consider it boycotting if their product is garbage anyways

Torrent and share their games to affect their bottom line.

They are online only games and free. So there’s no piracy you can really pull.

Torrenting their free-to-play games?

Never even heard of them. I went to their website to see what games they make and it all looks like free to play crap that I wouldn't play anyway. Welp, back into the void it goes.
