Playing WOW is as representative of "gaming" as consuming shit sandwiches is of eating. Your mistake is to confuse the corruption of a thing for the thing itself.
Just keep doing nothing about the source of the problems, and keep giving them as many chances to succeed as they need. I'm sure that will work out just fine.
I wasn’t suggesting you give them more, just the opposite. This issue is systemic. Spending your money elsewhere is the only way to choke them out. Burn the fallow field, and new growth will return.
Your initial claim seems excessive. Have you been playing terrible video games? Have you never played at all?

Am I funding my demise by playing this free upgraded version of Tiberium Sun? Is my 10 year old MeinKraft account doing me in? How about DayZ?
Are you even limiting this blanket statement to games on computers? I see what you're 'attempting' to say, but you've corrupted your own advice by claiming it's every game, which seems obviously untrue.
If you were trying to say that many of these companies turning out those shitty games use the money you give them to attack you, your people, and your society, then I would agree.
Considering your accusations of being excessive, have you observed the irony in your own reply? It sounds like you arrived at the correct interpretation without further assistance which is great! That you could use context, and locale to derive premise, and because you filled in the blanks that I left leads me to believe that you are going places. I could agree with your arguments if only for pedantic reasons, but when you allege that I claimed that it was ‘every’ game, when I clearly didn’t, I won’t. C+, Thanks for playing!
One quality I do possess is extreme pedant (a formalist or precisionist) skills. When you say, "if you game" with no qualifications added, that is inclusive of any and every game.
And maybe I'm just a linguistic elitist, but the ability of others to figure out what you were attempting to say is no defence for failing to master what is presumably your primary communication protocol.
If you really are a hog butcher, then the ability to communicate well is probably not a priority, or at least your top priority. Still, pointing and grunting to communicate your thoughts and wishes leaves a lot to be desired, even when some can deduce your intended meaning.
Make your time!
