I mean probably, but in its absence gaming is getting fucked by VC funded and publicly traded behemoths anyway. The only thing that has seemingly kept it from already descending into a much worse hellscape of locked down software, after-purchase terms changes and publisher interference has been a single private citizen controlling the largest private distributor being steadfast about remaining in open competition with them rather than joining the anti-consumerist coalition and locking down the market entirely.
So will it fuck something up? Probably. Will it make things worse than they would have been without it? I seriously doubt it.
Perfect is the enemy of good as they say. And this campaign is good enough, it'll probably do more good than harm and there's way worse things happening to get all doom and gloom about.
