>>739193960NATO countries are just looking for ways to ban asian made vidya because they realize they completely lost the market and tanked their industry with DEI initiatives
>>739194147how is forcing them to keep the servers up banning them you fucking tard
>>739193960>stop unaliving games
>>739193960imagine if the judge says all these games are dogshit anyway and deserve to be shut down
>>739194230>forcing server upkeepEVERYFUCKINGTIMEAnti-SKG shills are always like this. Their arguments are:>muh forced upkeep>muh programming difficulties>muh EULA>muh government regulation (that don't favour corporate abuse at the expense of the costumer)Always the same arguments that are literally debunked. Time and time again they get BTFO with the same rebuttals, and then they magically forget what happened the next day. I'm always left thunderstruck when I see their identical copes crop up left and right.>gradually, I began to hate them
>>739194230Its not even about forcing them to keep servers up, its about the game, if it is being sunset, to be playable in some state.
>don't like live service slop>therefore I don't play those games>problem solvedwhat's the point of this movement again?
>>739194361> [insert hitler quote about them forgetting the previous day's argument]
>>739194361>no argumentcase closed
>>739194385>>739194361Many online games are split between functions handled by the server and those handled on the client side, requiring a server for the game to be played. This is why they get shut down.
>>739194361>Always the same arguments that are literally debunked.>posts no evidence of said debunkinghuh...almost as if you can't do it.
>>739194361it's a classic tactic, if you repeat a lie often enough it becomes true.
>>739194387Like all forms of paternalism, the point is to protect retards from themselves. A good game would never need SKG to save it.
>>739194461Boo hooSounds like the devs have to have a sunset option for the games to be in a playable state. Fan revivals of long dead mmos show this to be a non issue.Disingenuous FAGGOT
>>739194230>forcing them to keep the servers upThat is not what SKG was about. It is about including a way for the customer to continuing using their purchase in the EOS, such as self-hosted servers or stripping a game of its online services and allowing it to be played as such. Although, in the EU petition, it was proposed as an alternative that they could have a clearly defined server period before purchase. Even that option is not "forced server running." It's "Before release, we've prepared and promise to keep the servers up for X years, until date Y, and you are guaranteed to this service until that date."
>>739194531Me when i lie
>>739194684(you) when you lose
>>739194531Debunking is on the fucking SKG site. Where it clearly lists everything. Problem is A) people are disingenuous or B) projecting their own IDEAS what SKG stands for when the damn thing has everything listed and was stated to EU parliament already.
>>739194618Pretty muchI cant think of a single "killed" game worth playing that didnt get a fan or private server.If people gave a shit about your game they would make it playable.
>>739194801>Debunking is on the fucking SKG siteNigger the site is contradictory as fuck, see them saying they arent demanding retroactive punishment.Then it also literally saying they are.Then you have faggots treating it like their shitty eceleb bible>UMM SWEETIE ITS ON THE WEBSITE>I CANT LINK OR SCREENSHOT IT BUT BELIEVE THE SACRED TEXTS
>>739194531>>739194531>"SKG wants to force devs to keep servers up forever!"Blatant lie. SKG just wants games (not including subscription-based for free to play) to be accessible after active support drops. Whether that means private servers or peer to peer connections, people should be able to play games on local networks without relying on a company to provide dedicated servers that can't be run at home. I should be able to set up a bunch of PS3s and play Ace Combat Infinity with friends without Bamco's help.>>739194461If some random autists can get Titanfall 1 and 2 private servers running without internal tools, why not Respawn devs?
>>739194801>debunks literally nothing>againspoonfeed me, please
>>739193960
>>739194461just freeware the server code and let people make their own dedicated servers, the same way that minecraft did it. its not that hard.
>>739195072This is harsh.. i agree with the sentiment that those people exist and need to be exterminated from the space but man did he target somebody who is not what he thinks.
>>739194230this was a problem that was solved 20 years ago, it's called dedicated servers
>>739195072Chet is a full on schizo, this is a well known fact
>>739195104you want the government to enforce this? what kind of commie BS is this forcing people to publish their code
>>739193960The government should not get involved in the markets, unless it's to enforce copyright and bailout bad business decisions
>>739195179And the server side technology that video games use hasn't changed in 2 decades, right?
>>739194147>NATO countries are just looking for ways to ban asian made vidyaMost live service slop gets made by mutts though.
>>739195072Based ChetRoss literally can't play video games and the evidence is his entire channel
>>739195072Wanting to play games you paid for is gamergate, the more games you want to play the gamerer the gate is
>>739195261Yes, actually. In fact I think people who don't should get their assets seized and have them be used to pay reverse engineers to do the work they didn't.
>>739195453>implying these threads don't immediately devolve into antisemitism and other pol shit Gamergate 2 is a pretty accurate description
>>739193960> hey guys I just opened my World of Warcraft CD from 2003 - you should have a server up to support it stillNo.
>>739195349well, sounds like a problem needing to be solved then
>>739195435americans out number euros 2:1 so that's not really an argument - stupid faggot
>>739193960>SKG started two years ago>people are STILL being retarded aboutSome of you fuckers really were made for rice fields.
>>739195658that's weird, last time I checked, I can play games that I bought 20 years ago and this wasn't a fucking problem until live service slop was invented
>>739195727Huh, the EU has 450 millions people. America is at 340 millions.
>>739194387I don't like live service slop therefore I don't want it to exist
>>739193960Reminder that americans were arguing against Steam being forced to do refunds, citing that you wouldn't need to return a good game anyway.Truly a cattle country. And that really means something when a nanny state like the EU is in play.
Has anyone told the parliament that he's the first second generation Blizzard employee? I feel like that information is vital to not misrepresent this case.
>>739193960>comments full of "this is how we get the youth interested in politics!!"I don't like this, young people shouldnt be mindraped by stupid shit like politics
>>739196141Not having young people care about politics is how we end up with Holden Bloodfeasts running the world
>>739196141Ignoring politics is how you get raped by them. If anything, recent history has shown ignoring issues won't make them go away.
>>739196141>meanwhile Indians push their own people into small government>end up wondering why the only people you can vote for are Rajeen and Ameshit's also how leftists capture institutions so easily, they always get involved at a small level politics, most normal people can't be asked to
>>739196198>>739196204In my entire 36 years of life not even once has a politician done anything to benefit me. This is the real "red pill". It's all a scam and seeing these old parasites manipulating young people feels like wading through maggot infested corpse water. You should be absolutely ashamed of yourself.
>>739194147NATO has no beef with Asia you illiterate double nigger.
>>739195862Online games have been ending service for nearly as long as games have been online, anon.
>>739196469Yes, almost like it's all according to plan. HOWEVER.
>>739196469>can still play half-life multiplayer>can still play cs 1.6>can still set up dedicated servers and cracked servers for games like MW2>can still make dedicated WoW and Runescape serversone day, corporations will shove ads into your eyeballs and a burning metal rod up your ass and you are going to wonder how that happened
>>739196385what you're advocating for is demoralization and it's how you get Hell Countries like Russia where you are openly imprisoned for protesting retarded shit and nobody cares because "what can you do? you have no power, it's meaningless." It by definition only benefits the powerful.50% chance you're being paid to do this as a result
gibbergobbergoobergamergatergamers are dead
>>739195072He's right.
>>739196141>>739196385Still waiting for the day you kill yourself
>>739196601>can still make dedicated WoW serversYeah but no thanks to Blizzard. We both know that if they had a say you wouldn't be allowed to do that, it's only because the game is extremely popular that it gathered enough autists to bother themselves with reverse engineering the server/client packets.
>>739196469Only retards buy games that require an internet connection to be played at all.It's the government's job to protect those subhumans from their own stupidity though. I don't feel bad for any games shutting down and I find it funny when they get all sad and whiny over worthless games going down.
>>739196386You're so wrong it's spectacular lol
Thor status?
The saddest part is that anti-skiggers visibly, quantifiably lost by every metric, but they still can't just shut the fuck up.
>>739194307They'd be right
>>739194531>I'm going to purposefully misunderstand and misrepresent the argument, and declare myself the winner without making an argument of my ownY'all are pathetic lmao
>>739194618>A good game would never need SKG to save it.A good game isn't online only
>>739195587>you wanting to fight literal kikes lobbying the government to curtail your rights is anti semitism and pol shitlmao israeli faggot
>>739196386Really?
>>739194461My computer can function as a server just fine. Servers aren't magic.
>>739196598You don't get anon, this is some arcane commie bs and modern games can't have this because uh.... reasons.Now be a good goy and play on matchmaking.
>>739195658What do you mean "no"? You can do it yourself. Right now. With the original game copies.
>>739193960Based.All games should be required by law to offer OFFLINE modes at launch. That way if/when they discontinue the live shit, you can still go back and fully play the game.
>I want to buy online only games and play them forever somehowThat's fair enough, isn't it? I don't buy them so I see zero advantages in supporting SKG, games could still be pulled from stores and distribution ceased due to copyrights like with movies and music, so the games it's protecting are very much limited, but if someone wants to eat shit they should be allowed to. I don't get why anyone is actively against it.
Europe won't even defend its native population from invaders, therefore I will not partake or pay attention to anything else they made be doing. Just let me enjoy my last peaceful moments.
>>739194898We know you are illiterate thor but come on...
>>739195072>Ross doesn't play games>literally has a channel with 10+ years of playing games

>>739198572>companies should be allowed to disable all cars they have made whenever they make>i don't drive a car so i wont get in an accident because of that>if other people want to die in car crashes caused by car manufacturers that's up to them
>>739195072Oh yeah I can definitely see why someone who's gravy train could be directly affected would have negative thoughts about a guy who simply wants more consumer protection>>739196851>>739195437>>739195172Corpo activists
>>739198763you suck at analogies and are probably retarded considering that anon agrees with you
>>739198614>they made be doingHello saar. SKG bad you bloody benchod. Need those two rupees per post to feed my family you bastard bitch.
>>739194361True, all they do is jewish tricks.
>>739196695You're not protesting. You're not being active in politics. You're allowing yourself to be manipulated.Tell me, how do you benefit from the movement? What games would you play that you can't play now? Name me just ONE. SINGLE. TIME. Ross has played a video game that isn't total goyslop. Why does a movement that exists so retarded yuropoors can play licensed car shovelware offline benefit me? It's insane. I don't even want these people playing games. You just know every single person praising this movement is a weasely little normalfag shit eater.
There should be a part of the internet only accessible to people who signed the initiative
>>739198830Oh no, I made a small typo.If you support Europe adminstration in its current form in any way, and if you support anything that happened after the war, you are a raped goyslave.
>>739198892>What games would you play that you can't play now?Dreadnought.
>>739198908It's called /r/kotakuinaction
>>739199027:|
>>739198892>Armchair trannyjanny whining about how people aren't actually protestingAs usual, your lack of decency and self-awareness is stunning
>>739198892You're retarded. Consumer protection is good, I may not repair phones but it should be someone's right to be able to do so without the manufacturer blocking access so only licensed dealers or themselves can do it especially if it's something you bought. I may have played final fantasy xi back in the day but I would absolutely want square to either keep it online forever or provide an offline means of being able to access it.
>>739198892>Why does a movement that exists so retarded yuropoors can play licensed car shovelware offline benefit me?Oh so you named the time it happened on all on your own and yet you feign ignorance. Disingenuous retard.
>>739195072It's funny how Chet has nothing but reliving his glory days at Valve, and while he's not doing that he's spewing some of the most fucktarded opinions imaginable.One has to wonder if he left the company because he lost his mind, or if he got fired because he lost his mind. Greg Coomer went off the deep end after leaving Valve as well. Must be something in Seattle's water.
>>739199123Why don't you use a reaction image instead? This isn't reddit.
Don't you think this has gone a little too far?
>>739198763Why would you buy a car that relies on an internet connection to work?
>>739199139You aren't and if you were you could answer my question. Name me one single good game Ross plays. Just one dude. I will always side with who's actually playing good games, not some asmongold tier dung collector.You're just attaching to movements arbitrarily because you are bored and powerless.
Avatarfagging is against the rules.
>>739199223>I need to play mmos offlineThis is exactly the kind of shit eating I'm talking about.
>>739199340nta but I'm sure it's just a matter of time before every car is required to send info to some HQ and if you remove that functionality it's equivalent to driving around with broken taillights
>>739199340What if carmakers don't give you a choice anymore because there is more profit to be made with cars that require internet connections?
>>739199358What Ross plays is completely irrelevant and if you weren't a (self admitted) subhuman sociopath you'd know.Or rather, since you are a self admitted, borerd and powerless subhuman sociopath who's well aware that there's no logical or moral argument against SKG you're here shitposting as you've been doing for years.Go back to being bullied in the shithole that is the SHMUP general or kill yourself.
>>739199340It's like AI, car companies are all trying to get everyone to switch to that even if you don't want>>739199445Not an argument just an ad hom from a seething corpo shill
>>739199414>DIFFERING OPINIONS? SAVE ME UNACCOUNTABLE AND ANONYMOUS AUTHORITY FIGURE, REMOVE THIS FELLOW IMMEDIATELYYeah government bootlicking is definitely for you
>>739199547>What Ross plays is completely irrelevant>can't name a single game he played that isn't absolute dogshitLOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLL
>>739199607>act like a low tier troll>get told to fuck off>act like you're being victimizedMan, trolls back in the day at least had guts, you're just a bitch.
>>739199801>SAVE ME DADDY GUBBMINT O LAWDY IVE BEEN PROVEN WRONG AND IM BEING OPPRESSED, SOCIETY SHOULD BE DECIDED BY AND UPVOTE AND DOWNVOTE SYSTEM
>>739199670Again, it doesn't fucking matter and any example I'd make you'd just dismiss as shit anyway because all you are is a bored, degenerate sociopath who isolated himself from society due to a self perceived slight against yourself.YOU are the issue and the archives are full of your shit, so again, kill yourselfhttps://arch.b4k.dev/v/search/image/DYLkQ6RVkzP5iXr3FkilkQ/
i dont care about skg because i dont play video games but if jews are against it i support it
>>739199918You're the one crying, not me lmao
>>739199670>>739199358>>739198892Literally mindbroken and emotionally invested over video games or side affect of psych meds
>>739195072>>739198698yeah that is one take for the books
>>739199920Name.One.Game.It does matter because if it doesn't benefit me, but benefits people I dislike and would prefer to go away, obviously that's a problem. There is nothing about SKG that benefits me. It only benefits people that killed video games. SKG doesn't unkill games, because the "games" they are trying to save killed games. It's a movement about turning the gaming interesting into a giant unhealthy festering wound where dead-eyed burnt out dadgamers can play offline live service slop all day. Why would anyone want these people around? They need to move on, their presence is making games worse.
>>739200094Which books?

>>739198763Cars and videogames are under very different laws and rules though. I see your point, but while I'm not against SKG I don't see much value in what it's fighting for, even if it is customer protection.
>>739198003illiterate retard award
>>739198892The SKG non-sentients are going to be even mad at your replies after nothing comes of this dumbass nonsense.
>>739200943Why are you buying apple products at all? Who is this benefitting?
>>739200978We went from "haha your stupid petition will never get the votes!" to "w-well, so what if the EU bigwigs had a meeting about it today??"Frankly, nobody is even interested in debating you anymore. People are just runnng a victory lap while flipping you off.
>>739200764That doesn't sound like an argument for why should own the rights to run your own servers for a game you didn't develop.
>>739194618>>739198738You know I'm partial to libertarianism as well, but you can't be ideologically blind, corporations have IP laws to protect them and we have nothing.Let them do whatever they want with their games, fine, then abolish IP laws as well and let us have private servers from day 1, or is that kind of regulation "good"?
>>739194147>tanked their industry with antiwhite initiativesFix'd you cuck
>>739201174Your IPs are protected too.
>>739201147No argument is required for it, since most games in existence already grant you the ability to do so.
>>739201174You can combat this by raising your standards instead of consuming garbage like a hungry little piggy

>>739201119I'm not, but I like that they get told to stop their jewish tricks.
>>739201332That doesn't sound like an argument for why should users be denied ability to run dedicated servers, when such had been the prevailing practice for the last 20 years and had only been concertedly driven out recently with the rise of live service games and the culture of remakes in order to re-sell the same product.
>>739196469Anon, how old are you? I can still play the first multiplayer games i ever played 30 years ago online but games from 10 years ago are dead and gone. Make it make sence!
>>739201261>making your life evolve around or even following the red vs blue circusthe irony of this post is palpable
>>739201261Bruh, Socrates was heavily critical of public rule and ultimately murdered by politicians for wrong think, how is it even humanly possible to be this ignorant.
The whole debacle comes down to corporations trying to weasel out of their responsibilities as a seller via fine print on an obnoxiously legalese agreement that they KNOW nobody will read.Defending this kind of practice is clearly some form of devil worship.
>>739201395>they get told to stop their jewish tricks.The biggest impact SKG has had on the industry is functioning as a massive advertisement for the crew and selling thousands of copies of the game to immediately dissapointed third worlders. This has a paradoxical effect of making ubisoft more money while simultaneously harming their rapidly diminishing branding by reviving and bringing attention to a product that was better off dead. Bad products should not be made arbitrarily more accessible.
>>739201539People wouldn't be dragging the government into this if it could have been solved in any other way.
>>739201208So regulations that are disproportionaly more useful for corporations are fine, but anything that could help the audience you fight with tooth and nails and of course "you" win those fights since it happens to align with the interests of more influential political entities; "let's dismantle the State" libertarians say, of course we start with the weak institutions set up to help the disenfranchised, the corporate welfare mechanisms we leave for some time later in the distant future that will never come.
>>739200534That last post is borderline incomprehensible I don't think he even knows what the fuck he's saying, did he have a stroke? Is he okay? Chet really is a fucking schizophrenic retard now holy shit.
So does this mean politics is now gaming? I am not even baiting here I am serious.
>>739201529Your life is incredibly painful I get that but wishing bad things on innocent people is incredibly self destructive for your depressed brain. You're just digging yourself further in that hole but guess what, you can always come back to the "good" side.
>>739201762Well, apparently we're not allowed to discuss how this relates to games and what excellent games this movement will save, so very obviously no
>>739201462Because it's not, it's an argument against your logic. Being able to boot up one game doesn't mean you deserve access to the proprietary software for another.
>>739201795What does any of this have to do with steeple!>You're wrong, the most famous Greek figure hated and was murdered by politicians>You're a bad guy for not wanting to pacify the sheeple!

>>739201749This doesn't mean copyright laws don't protect you.

>>739202945What.Games.Does.This.Save.I want these games to die and be forgotten.
>>739202945What 80 years of capitalist propaganda will do to a motherfucker
>>739202945Stop trying to kill the free market
>>739203027Free market as you incorrectly imagine it would gladly dump lead into your drinking water to save 2% in their production pipeline.Of course digital licenses are not as serious as poisoning entire towns, but the underlying behavior is the same.Free market is not freedom to be a criminal.
>>739202685I bet at least half of this is just terminal contrarianism.
>>739202980>i dont like x therefore no one should get to enjoy itsound logic
>>739198892This could help games like Genshin Impact, Zenless Zone Zero, Blue Archive, Wuthering Waves, Neverness to Everness, and many others of a similar nature avoid being shut down due to the discontinuation of serviceThink about this: if things stay the same as they were years ago, all those games I mentioned will stop working once the servers shut down, and everything you invested in them will be useless. You won’t get a refund, it will just be lost, and you won’t be able to access it
>>739203169you don't own the game, the company does, you bought a license and its not yors
>>739202685>nobody may have an opinion on us crying to the eu parliament to meddle in gamesBut I think I may.
You have the power to stop this. Start killing people or kill yourself.
>>739203270The government wrote the laws that allow for ridicolous things like software licences and IP rights. The government can also mandate the limits of those rights.
>>739203270EU begs to differ, and the company's EULA is not permitted to argue.
>>739203340>>739203364nope, the game isnt yours and now your enforcing dictator like theft upon companies ip
>>739194361>Time and time again they get BTFO with the same rebuttals, and then they magically forget what happened the next dayThere was a passage in Mein Kampf about this.
>>739203450Amerimutts unironically believe this.
>>739203197Yes? We have threads about people playing diablo 3 offline right now. I don't want that. Imagine the crap threads zoomers are gunna make 10 years from now about reliving their live service garbage through offline mode. You're not thinking clearly. This is a massive negative and if you can't demonstrate how it benefits me personally then I have no reason not to be against it. The impetus is on you, it's not my responsibility.
>>739203246Yeah kill all of that
>>739203587I know right, threads about video games on /v/, there should be another twitter shitpost thread instead, you're so right sis
>>739193960>ross is passing laws in eu and usa>gamer theory is a politician>markplier is making horror movies>pewdiepie is a father in japanwhat the HECK is going on
>>739203640I don't want to talk about The Chosen: Well of Souls. I want to talk about Gunbird 2.
>>739203587>Your OS refuses to run your 25 year old games that are not remote attestedWhat now?
>>739203750Name the game lol. I talk about what I play all the time. You can't name a single game I'd be interested in that this would effect.
>>739203692Built for BBC
>>739203692Oh its simple, the younger generation is now the older generation so now they are getting their turn to influence the culture and the world. The same thing will happen to the zoomer and whatever comes after them.
>>739194147obvious seething gachatard that thinks people hate gachas because of their financial success and not because they have a dogshit economic model
>>739203818Any game that you like faggot, I can't see into your mind
>>739204108But it's not gunna happen to any game that I like. Considering how these threads have such obnoxious, staunch, and downright cultish defenders you'd think the threat wouldn't be entirely theoretical. All games SKG cites as being dead that would be protected under new legislation are games I want dead and forgotten. That's an concrete real example grounded in reality and a very real reason for not supporting SKG.
>>739202980It would make the restoration of Battlefield 2142 easier.
>>739203692I come from Europe and my dudebro cousin who is now a prison guard in UK is a FO2 fan, he gave me his copies of FO and FO2 when he moved out and told me to play it, as it's the best games ever (although my retarded late millenial ass cannot despite my best efforts). My ex-military dad introduced me to vidya and still plays HoM&M III to this day. I think it's US only thing that "plays vidya = virgin retard" because your social ladder seems even more bloodthirsty than usual.
>>739204327I definitely do not want any battlefield game to be revived
>>739203587kill yourself asap retard
>>739203629Even though I don't like gacha games, regardless of how popular they are, they need to be protected from shutdowns and denial of access if you've paid for them, the same goes for any gameOther examples that aren’t gacha games include titles that lose their online access on older consoles, such as what happened with GTA Online on PS3 and Xbox 360. This would help us avoid something like that in the future with GTA 6, the same goes for COD, and many other games with online componentsIt would also prevent having to delist games due to licensing issues, as is the case with the Forza games>>739203587fuck off
>>739204370This one apparently is pretty good.
>>739204280Did you not understand what I said, you stupid faggot?>Windows 14 comes out>Is hardware attested, your hardware won't run anything else>Your OS won't run shit that's not attested through Windows Store>Say goodbye to your CDsEven failing that, your boomer-coded "fuck you got mine apres moi le deluge" mentality is loathsome. Games turned to shit because fags like you didn't lift a finger to protect them.
>>739204414>they need to be protected from shutdownsWhy? You're not making an argument, just blankly stating things like it just is. Obviously if people found out "investing" in gacha was a stupid idea, this would help steer the industry away from games like this. People shouldn't be clinging to mind numbing digital heroin for all eternity. All you did was list a ton of shit games /v/ doesn't like, why would anyone here care about cawadooty? Obviously you're a hostile tourist who doesn't belong here.
>>739204572If that happened I just wouldn't run windows 14 to play those games???? What are you, retarded? How do you think I play games that don't run on my OS now?
>>739193960Summarize for me what Stop Killing Games is and what laws are they looking to pass. It should be easy.
>>739204760>Game shut down>Devs now need give server binaries and or enable lan/offline modeThat's it.
>>739204660>Is hardware attested, your hardware won't run anything elseFailing that, your ISP will require remote attestation and won't let you connect to the Internet on a non-attested OS. It's already starting on Android and iOS, it's a matter of time before it happens on personal computers.>But muh Dell from 2005!On borrowed time.
>>739204760Initiative that wants companies to make it clear when they sell a limited time service instead of a game you own and either offering options for refunding or ways to keep game afloat (offline mode, alternative hosting method etc).Aka, no way for a game you bough to be completely unplayable or wasted money.Exact proposals and process need more reading
>>739204572Even if this doomer scenario was true and we assumed there was no alternative, that does not really explain why you'd want to be against SKG.
>>739204889How many niche games in your life has this ever happened to?
>>739204760An e-celeb got angry that he couldn't play the Crew to make a clickbait video about how quirky it is because it has always online DRM which was shutdown once their licenses to use official model cars expired. This led to millions of third world slavs signing a petition and so ubisoft released an offline version of the crew on steam, to the response of a 40% average user rating and confused reviews in broken English. Now the EU parliament is discussing how to make this into legislation, to show children how heckin awesome government is or something. Also they will be tacking this onto other extremely harmful legislation and not talking about it.
>>739204893>It's already starting on AndroidNo it's not
>>739205004What extremely harmful legislation is that?Cause this is really the crux of your shitposting, that it will somehow make things worse.
>>739195349Low-iq or baitCall it
>>739194147seethe chinksect. 2 of the best games of the decade were made in europe.
>>739204992Megaman Xdive got rereleased as offline game. Only missing online PVP and collab character, albeit latter got patched back by community.
>>739205116You mean the cancer game that killed the mega man general
>>739205065>https://grapheneos.social/@GrapheneOS/116550899908879585
>>739193960>My son told me a bit about these video gamesBased nepobabies of politicians being useful for once instead of being a scourge on society and getting away with murdering innocents in vehicular manslaughter
>>739205084None, he's just american and he can't understand that elsewhere, laws are passed without buying the votes of 100 congressmen with pork tacked on to it, and some extra permissions for the NSA to monitor their anus cameras snuck in so the public won't notice it, all wrapped in a 5000 page bill none of the people voting on it read.
>>739205104>bg3>good
>>739193960If the licensed music is the problem can't they just remove it and replace it with whatever shit they find in the copyright free libraries?
>>739205324>IfIt's not. Even now games delisted because of music copyright don't get taken away from you
>>739201079he shilled kamala harris in 2024 lol
The more work this causes for Ubislop/Craptivision, the better.
>>739204607I'll respond to everything you said in short:Lack of empathy, and it's always good to have more options>Obviously you're a hostile tourist who doesn't belong hereSays the guy who doesn't know how to use random filenames
>>739205206This has nothing to do with that and it's just the same old "are you sure you want to run virus.exe" that has existed on every OS forever, why do politics obsessed retards always try to blow everything up as some sort of apocalypse. I'm running mihon just fine right now dude. And all of that aside this is a completely seperate issue anyways that SKG would in no way address????
>>739205261still can't cope with reality?
>>739205561>use random filenamesOnly malevolent schizos do that
>>739205324The radio stations in the GTA 3D trilogy are a good example of this, even though they just removed them instead of replacing the tracks.The problem can arise when a game is built around that music, for example, the game mechanics, and obviously that would require extra work, but this isn’t about the extra work, it’s about not letting it shut down the game for that reason
>>739194801It's the conservative Big Lie, where they'll just keep repeating the lie over and over again until average laymen who's not educated in what's going on believes it to be the truth and the information that proves it wrong is fabricated.It's now become a standard propaganda tactic.Also noticed the one anti gamer shill is really going all in on demoralization and the idea that people can't just seize their own destiny.>>739205243Ironic you say that since California is passing their own version of SKGs and it looks to be entirely grass roots in it's support since the big money interests are all against it, yet it's still managing to get bi-partisan support because it's now going to get a vote in front of the full legislator.
>>739205819But SKG does nothing to stop this, why would it stop devs from pulling their games from stores???
>>739205704nah, most anons use them. I guess you don't care about anonymity, which is why you're not interested in that
>>739205561>implying random filenames will save youNothing that a dedicated schizo who cross references with the archive can't solve.
