You have to create an account to get them.
If you don't think data harvesting to sell the data isn't part of that equation, you're just a little bit naive.
I think it's funny how people create accounts only to never actually spend any money on this platform
Of course it's part of the equation.
It's part of the equation on Steam and GOG, too.
So unless you bought a physical copy of this game and kept it off the internet (not sure if anyone is collecting any data through FO3 itself), or got it gifted to you through GOG and you don't have an account there, you're in the same boat. Except you paid for the game with money in addition to data.
Yeah, but the argument was "does taking a free game help them or not" not shifting goalposts to whether Valve does it, too.
