Be a good little consumer.

rockstar introduces: 30 fps, multi pay walled single player digital only game, no PC release coupled with anti consumer practices and mass lay offs. corporate defenders: piracy is why its releasing late on pc, just buy a console bro

This is a single panel meme consisting of text placed above a screenshot of the character Mariano Guzmán from Disney's animated film Encanto, who has a strained, pushy, slightly desperate facial expression while facing another character off-screen. The first block of text outlines anti-consumer practices from video game publisher Rockstar Games: releasing a 30fps, digital-only single player game with multiple paywalls, no PC launch, alongside anti-consumer policies and recent mass company layoffs. The second text block mocks corporate apologists who defend these practices, claiming piracy is the reason for the delayed or missing PC release and telling consumers to simply purchase a console to play the game. Mariano's expression is used to represent the out-of-touch, entitled tone of these corporate defenders pushing consumers to accept exploitative company policies.

This meme was sourced from the Reddit:Meme RSS feed. It uses the widely popular 'stressed Mariano' meme template taken directly from a scene in Disney's 2021 animated film Encanto. It was created to criticize widely discussed anti-consumer choices from Rockstar Games surrounding their recent game releases and internal layoff policies, and to mock people who defend these corporate actions against valid consumer complaints. It circulated widely in gaming communities on Reddit.
