Boycott is a strong word, but I know that I and many, many others decided not to purchase Disco Elysium based on how all that drama went down. And I know I'll never buy HiFi Rush after the way Microsoft closed that studio while simultaneously lamenting how they wish they had more games like that, because I don't want to reward bad behaviour.

Same reason I haven't bought anything from EA in a decade, and I'm really on the fence about supporting Ubisoft at this point too.
