Another case of EU sóyism being debunked in real time, and it's funny because the majority of the people pushing this were pro-EU sóyim who really wanted to prove that direct democracy is possible in the EU. But regulations are only for the elite to keep you in a buckbroken state and never made the other way to regulate the elite for you. It is an inherently antifascist creation made to pacify the continent and keep it from chimping out, and giving even a minor victory over anything at all would lead to the immediate remoralization of its population, which would defeat the intention of the EU. They don't even care and would probably love to regulate the developers but the mere fact that this would be considered a win for the unwashed masses and their populist nonsense, and especially of the gamer chud variety, immediately flags it as an irritant that may lead to a Hitler in a decade, so buckbreaking the populism and making you depressed about it takes precedence.

Yes you should be required to provide recipes when you change a commercial food product. If you don't want to keep selling it that is your own fault. Food quality has deteriorated a ridiculous amount in the last 20 years.
None of which applies to games which are intentionally being made not to work. They put a fuckload of time and money into making them not work. Just making them work in the first place would be much simpler but then they can't sell game 2 whenever by turning off game 1.

when I looked at it at the beginning from ross he wanted devs to dust off floppies (something devs never ever do) over the crew instead of pursuing future games or wording it properly so it's not asking dead companies rather dealing with the copyright or something. I haven't studied it up to the exact moment but that's my two cents on the legal structure.
devs won't ever do anything for you cause they think less than you think and keep less. the publishers are also ruthless about death gripping intellectual property. which is why I thought ross blowing all this up was stupid in the first place, since now they remember they have something people want.

So they didn't understand what it was about.
All it was about was cutting the umbilical cord. They just wanted games to function like other software when the license is defunct, i.e. no new updates, no support, but owners can legally still keep using it if it's installed or exists already in their possession. Like if you had an app that tells the weather, and after it expires, you can still dig into the code and hook it up to other 3rd party connections to still get the weather out of it even though 1st party connections are gone.
This would've just made that process simpler.
>>
>>537223001
>can legally still keep using it if it's installed or exists already in their possession
you can in the US that's how code and art works. the problem was you didn't have the server code. but it's not worth blowing it up over this, at this point the server code is so simple an llm can analyze it and rewrite a server client with a database in seconds. then the hard part, stop telling activision about it or trying to list it on steam.

>international lawfare against anyone ever making any kind of hotdog ever again

Only sub 100 iq thought this could become something, microjew chimed in behind the curtains that "yeah they wont do it", and that's that. Live service games and your digital "achievements" inside are not static tangible products and assets, it is all consumables, like the games themselves. This is how you have to view games with any online requirement, they are finite, unlike a game cd and a save file from 20 years ago.

The sooner gamers would realise this the better, invest as much time in online (or any) game, as much money you'd invest into gambling. I regret taking them seriously
