Review bombing the new star control doesn't do shit to Brad Wardell. It just makes people who worked on that game have a shitty metascore title on their resumé.
Interesting you bring up Telltale, because reviews for The Wolf Among Us didn't try and 'punish' Telltale for Bill Willingham being a piece of shit and any Fables related media directly supporting him.
GOTG reviews - for film or games - don't shame Marvel for treating Starlin like shit about the characters he created.
Your comparisons are extremely flawed. Every example you are giving is of individuals who are tangentially related to these projects, not the single individual who benefits the most financially, and uses those finances to fund their harassment, and literal assault, of a wide swath of different people. You aren't even close to the mark, Wily. You are miles away.
Your argument is framed around protecting individuals, but it requires enabling extremely toxic companies run by an extremely toxic individual. Hell, their success is more than just the consumers enabling Wardell's shitty behavior, it is effectively empowering him to sink deeper. As I have said before, I hold no ill will towards the people who work at Stardock, but they know who their employer is and they have thrown in their lot with him. The failure of a Stardock game is cause to celebrate. Any loss for Stardock is a win for humanity.
