You want to portrait yourself as an anti-corpo warrior. But all you're doing is making corpo content a mainstream monopoly, and through that they will eventually find a way to make someone pay for it.
You will only make corpos go broke if you actually spend some money on alternative content. Meaning that content will get better, and there will be some follower base to enjoy that content with.
I will pay for their single player if reasonable, I'll probably pirate cuz their shitty online tracking made GTA5 not even worth playing legally for free. A pirated version would've worked much better and wouldn't require their fkn launcher social club disaster.
But absolutely surely I'll know I'm not an anti-corpo warrior. Just a tiny rebel insignificant enough to ignore. And I only matter a tiny bit, because I actually would've bought their game if it was on GOG.
And if everyone always bought on GOG only, you'd see a much, much stronger presence on that platform.
Till then their answer to you will be "hey you've been playing this game and your friends did too, well in order to play together it's 10$/months, good luck pirating that".
