>Despite 1.3 million signatures, the EU declined imposing a legal mandate to keep games playable after their commercial life due to copyright and intellectual property limitations.https://www.yahoo.com/news/world/articles/eu-wont-pursue-mandatory-game-184528677.html
>>537240291Based, fuck gamers.
OH NO NO NO NO NO LOOK @ DIS DOOOODD
>>537240291Because it was a retarded initiative. If players truly cared about this shit then they would stop buying games from companies that do this. But nooo, they must buy the latest hand from Company and then get mad when Company screws them over for the 5th time.
>>537240291>>Despite 1.3 million signatures, the EU declined imposing a legal mandate to keep games playablePirate versions are always playable.Just sayin'YOHOHO!

Lol. That's awesome news.That's all the goodwill the EU had left. Now autists will want to know what and why. They will inevitably stumble upon how corrupt and kiked the system is.Perfect.
>>537240745He didn't though, everyone knew the commission was going to shit all over it and the real goal was a legislative push toward the european parliament. the commission was a formality
>>537240708He had an 8/10 gf before he cheated on her with a troon.

>>537240813A shocking amount of retards on the internet, but we already knew that, Asmongold still has an audience after all and is basically Fox News for zoomers
People will keep not buying the slop.
>>537240291This was ruled under the assumption that you'll just keep buying those games.And you will. Because you can't help yourselves. You will buy GTA VI for any price they name, could be $200. You will buy any soulslop that's churned out, and will buy any live service like Helldivers to follow the fad of your friends.They have you by the balls, and you will never change the status quo.
>>537240813he bots his twitch numbers and barely has 20 unique chatters
>>537240897>>537240903is that why thousands of layoffs keep happening in the industry and no one is playing live service slop?
>>537240291think of all the poor ferrets he'll stuff his anus with tonight to celebrate
>>537240291>WOOOO! THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE IGNORED AND COMPANIES ALLOWED TO CONTINUE FUCKING YOU OVER! WE DID IT REDDIT!
>>537240648As long as they keep pushing niggers and women in their games, they don't need profits. The Jews will keep printing money for them.
When I make my games in gonna allow the community to get whatever they need to host the servers themselves, no online verification bullshit, I'm just a retarded schizo dev, but I want to be remembered as one of the good devs that gave the gamers what they wanted. You buy my game, it's yours, when I end support, you'll be given the tools to host and edit the game yourself. full transparency! We need more devs who are willing to do the same!
>>537241102and no one will buy them, your point?meanwhile tons of indies games are being made and doing well enough that a single dev can make a game in a year and become a millionaire over night there are countless stories, games you've heard of, games you haven't
>>537240984Layoffs happen in every industry all the time. The higher ups found a cheaper way to achieve the same results and trimmed the fat
oh no, i guess i'll just keep pirating
>>537240813do you at least get paid for glazing his nuts this bad?
>>537240859>>537240949>>537241010>>537241069>>537240841
As I understand it, the idea was germinated with Wow Classic.You see World of Warcraft got a bunch of woke female devs who messed up the game. So some oldschool chads decided to start up their own servers and play the original game as it was in the begging. These private servers became incredibly popular, more popular than the actual game. This became a crisis as Wow decided they wanted that profit for themselves, and started shutting the servers down. They eventually realized they could make a shitton of money just by re-releasing the original game themselves and giving players what they wanted. This little event woke people up to this notion that online games can potentially be resurrected by private community members. Like the fans of old Age of Empires or Players Unknown Battlegrounds can easily run private servers and host the game for fans, even if the game is long retired. Since so many games are online these days, this would be a sensible solution.But this throws a wrench in the coprorate model of turning games into a subscription. They want to release a game, host it for 3 years, and then sell you another game. You should have the option to play the old games, instead keep buying the new ones. This is even more dystopian because in their contract they never spell out how long the game will actually be live, they can easily sell you a game, pull service a month or two later, and you just got scammed. That has happened plenty of times by the way.The idea is simple. At the end of a game's life, just allow community members to host it so people can play it. That's it, that's the concept. Of course some of these online games can't be hosted this way without giving the source code and giving away some trade secrets, so it's a bit complicated in that respect. But we've seen over and over that the community is often far more comptenent than the actual dev team, and can do all that shit themselves quite easily. I mean look how much better modders made Skyrim
>>537241367Alright that one got me lol
>>537241271There is literally no reason not to pirate.I'm not giving money to people who hate me, I'm not giving money to people who wilfully put denuvo and other malware masquerading as DRM in their games, fuck your launchers, account creation for everything and fuck your "telemetry".
>>537240984The live service slop fatigue + the low quality woke garbage. Also video games are facing a problem. Realistically with a cheap laptop you can play some very good games for ever. The third world noticed ages ago and the west is following because of components prices. Each type of game have at least one, often 2 to 3, very good entry capable to run on a potato and supported by mods. For ever games is a problem for the industry and they have no idea how to fix it.
>>537240771germabro, the courts are in on it
>>537240291The EU is on the side of scammer, cheats, thiefs, and rape...ofcourse they want corporations to commit fraud, they like fraud, they like baby murder."Talmudic culture".
>>537240550>>537240580>>537240598looks like an AI Ed Byrne
>The replies in this threadDamn, so this is where the corporate shills live after all.>>537241492If buying isn't owning and all that. Also ISPs here int he states are no longer liable to enforce corpyright law either, so you can literally pirate away and unless they want to track your IP down to your residence they can do nothing.
>>537240291all you had to do was not include a clause that forces them to make a private server for you, all you needed was legal clemency to run the game yourselves and make your own solution
>>537240382Bit bloody dramatic. It was remarkable the movement gained as much traction as it did seeing as government sare still staffed by boomers with literally no experience on this matter.Try it again in 10-20 years and it'll probably get further if not be fully successful.
>>537240771>he thinks the system works for himanon, the system only works for wealthy jews and big corporations. You exist to serve wealthy jews and big corporations, that's why they just laugh at shit like this when it happens.>the people think they have power! lmao!
>>537241594where is this clause?
>>537240745I don't know what his opinion was, but the bill sucked, proves the mainstream vidya fandom in the west is full of pseuds who coudn't put together an actual metaphysics argument of games rights and just asked the EU for gibs
>>537241594I think the private server idea was one solution to the DRM problem. Because these companies often contract with 3rd parties to get their online shit working properly, and the companies themselves don't even have the rights to all that shit. So if you're demanding access to that stuff as a fan, then it's a problem. So one workaround is to let the companies set up a server for the fans, that way you don't need to spill the beans on all the source code.
>>537241492what are actually necessary steps to sail the sea safelyUnironically giving these people money now is the actual immoral thing to do
>>537241501Back in the day video games were made by nerds for nerds, now it's an industry that generates more money than (((Hollywood))). Game development is too bloated with too much dead weight (women, fags, activists) it's too slow and the gamers are getting tired of the constant stream of movieslop and political messaging - practically all new Sony games are like this and all but the biggest cucks still enjoy them. >>537241586ISPs here never cared about it. I have a good collection of old PC games on physical media and I only buy indie games these days. But even from a purely practical standpoint pirating gives you a better experience, denuvo kills performance and all big AAA games have their own launcher these days it's ridiculous.
You know I think we should revisit one argument people were making in the early internet.Online, there is no 'scarcity'. It's not like there's only 10 trees, and I cut down one of the trees. You can reproduce things infinitely. Scarcity is a myth in the online world.So if that's the case, why should you be allowed to "own" and profit from some code you wrote? I mean, it's not a scarce commodity it's infinite. If I drew something, why should I be allowed to put guardrails around it and sell it only to paying customers, when it can be reproduced infinitely without limit? "Scarcity" in the online world has to be imposed, top-down, and only exists so these guys can profit. But what is money anyway, when everything's free?
>>537241448I kinda didn't get the argument reddit/boomer gamers were making about the private servers until I realized that most of their favorite companies who had multiplayer games set up the game to allow players to host their games on their computer, to them that's basically the equivilent of them doing all the work "well i'm hosting the server so that means the company doesn't have to do any work" completley ignoring the fact they have to code that into the game, which they do as an incentive for you to buy it, they aren't owed you to do this, it was just poular for a while
>>537241682"is to let them" the law would require them to which literally killed the proposal today
Why should a game developer have to keep a game online after it's no longer profitable? That's retarded.
>>537240291His game failed, he got exposed as a massive fraud and he'll never recover from it. He lost.
>>537241737I think Germany is more cucked than other places so use a VPN just in case. Thanks to the US our local torrent trackers got nuked so I'm downloading games from rutracker.org just register there and use page translation if necessary. The big development this year was that hackers created a universal denuvo bypass, which runs with all denuvo protected games.The downside is that it spoofs data and doesn't actually excise denuvo like the older cracks, but it's better than nothing or waiting for years for a crack.
>>537240903And they will generate the whole game in 30s with AI.
>>537241827No they point is, they should let the community members host it themselves. Like if I want to play Fornite, and Fortnite was retired 10 years ago. I should be able to set up a community where we host Fortnite for anyone who wants to play, no profit expected. These fandom communities exist for old games, this is just formalizing the process.And as long as we're talking about this, why are companies allowed to sell you these games without any explicit clause for when the service is expected to end. Will it end in 1 year? 3 years? 10 years? They don't tell you. That's bullshit.
>>537241594I thought the whole point of this campaign was NOT to force game companies to keep servers up and instead force them to allow (You) to host private servers after they no longer want to. You're either a lying kike or they went full retard at the very last minute, in which case show the clause where they killed their own bill.
the entire thing was 1 step forward 1 step back, you really had a dogshit team that just tried to pass it through on hype and momentum instead of actually putting together a decent proposal, one of increasing failures of using the mentality of little guy vs big guy is that most of you just stopped accepting any criticism at all to improve the proposal
>>537240291oh nooo, who could have expected this???
>>537241910>You're either a lying kikeHe's a lying kike
>>537241742Oh I'm well aware of the piracy opinion in your parts of the world lol. I have a few friends in the Balkans. They used to be my source for some obscure shit back in the day.Either way it's just pretty fucking hilarious to me that even within the US, the epicenter of copyright cuckoldry that ISPs no longer have to actually give a damn, or out you when requested.
>>537241910it was brought up in the EU hearing, literally their strongest argument was "we'd be overstepping by needing to force companies to implement a feature that doesn't benefit them when they want to sunset their game", you can regulate something before a game is out, but after it's ending it's pretty insane to make that a law, we don't have laws that force you do make things it doesn't work that way
>>537241969love how your proposal failed, and you're still refusing to change the proposal
>>537240382Retarded just discovered that democracy in capitalism is just a scam to keep goyim quiet.The only "cy" that exists is "violency". All power derives from violence. If you're not violent a violent person will have power over you. That's it.
What if you just stop paying for AAA slop altogether? I only play quake and daggerfall. (And every fucking Nintendo game I can put on my 3DS and I don't pay for any of it. Except quake. I paid $9.99)
>>537242062The pen is mightier than the sword.
>>537242017>they randomly decided to sabotage everything they fought for at the very last minute by demanding the very thing shills have been claiming they were demanding from day 1Not buying this shit for a second. show the clause or fuck off, kike.
>>537240291>companies make it clear they don't give a fuck about you and can pull the plug at any point>haha we won>those that do buy their games end up getting scammed and angry>eventually no one ends up buying their games>go out of business as other companies capitalize on the free "public goodwill" available>wait, I thought we won?!?!At least, that is what I hope will happen. Plenty of retards still buying COD and FIFA until then.
>>537241973I think the only reason they relaxed their grip in the US is because zoomers are too fucking retarded to torrent. Ironically the FBI glowniggers shut down our biggest torrent sites this year, they were popular internationally though not as much as RARBG was.
>>537242030there was no clause that mandates companies to release server software. you're clearly and obviously a lying kike and you know it.
>>537242062>Retarded just discovered that democracy in capitalism is just a scamkek, they will vooote harder and shill for the EU even more now, those people never learn
>>537241742I don't think people are tired of movie slop games. But games don't need Hollywood actors, motion capture and everything that bloat the budget to the max. There is some space for interested story and cinematic driven games. But the industry went from 4 hours movie games to 44hours movies games with busywork and shit gameplay.
>>537240382>(((democracy))) is dead because muh vidya isn't exactly how I want it>meanwhile their taxes are spent on importing millions of machete-wielding shitskin rapists
Ross was right about one thing.He hated the current state of limbo, and wanted to either win or lose decisively.This just means that government wont protect you, and corpos are free to fuck you over anytime they like.I will act accordingly.>>537242098>What if you just stop paying for AAA slop altogether?Epic games deletes games people already purchased.Amazon just deletes books from people's libraries. Do you think this will just be video games in the near future?Steam/Valve is an exception because of Gabe newell, but he is an old guy now...
The idea) Allow community members to host dead games so people can play. The problem) These games often rely on 3rd party DRM and opening it up to the community would compromise lots of trade secrets.The proposed solution) In that case, the companies can procure a private server for the community, so the game can be hosted without giving away any DRM stuff.The actual solution) Release the games in a broken state. The community is brilliant enough to replicate all the proprietary shit themselves and do it even better.
>>537242166it was the part where you wanted to make your own private servers by asking someone else to do it
Also speaking of the 3ds, go look up the "pretendo" network. I can play mariokart 7 with spics from south America and nintendo can't do a damn thing about it.
>>537240291If he’s how winning looks like i’d rather stick a red hot pitchfork in my ass and gyrate on it.
>>537241367>all that aislopyou're a jeet huh
>>537242233This nigga knows.
>>537242235can you post that part?
>>537240382Good, next step is the realization that>it's working as intended>>537240291phyrric lossit will add to the hate vs AAAfuck em
>>537242233two things,>1; they already have locally hosted private servers without drm for testing, actually required because you don't need extra variables when programming/testing something>2; they could just NOT go legally after private servers made by the communityeither one would be fine desu
>>537242210Both can be true at the same time, anon. If anything them not letting us keep ourselves distracted with vidya even better only hurts their cause, not strengthen it.
redditors really thought that 1.3 million upvotes meant anything in the eyes of the law. hahahaha stupid reddit niggers.
>>537242252Idk even know who that faggot is, but ai can make really pretty blonde girls, that chick on the right is my type and my only weakness as a man in this reality on this planet.
>>537241145What game are you developing?
>>537242203>I don't think people are tired of movie slop games.There are a lot of normies still, unfortunately. They fucking love hand holding, yellow paint, characters that always comment on what's happening and remind you of your current objective and NPCs that tell you how to solve a double-digit IQ puzzle immediately. I watched the PlayStation state of play presentation and wanted to vomit.
>>537242110
literally who is that fag
>>537242293here >>537242475
>>537242475exactly i already said this in the thread but everyone knew the commission was going to shit all over it and the real goal was a legislative push toward the european parliament. the commission was a formality
>>537242340Funny how they say that democracy is dead because they are so fucking stupid and consumers that instead hitting this big companies with their wallet they go cry at their governments which for some reason they didn't figure it out that their governments are killing them with shitskins, inflation, wars etc.Fucking retards man
>>537242235>>537242475>when making a game, include private server functionality>not even demanded on day 1, only as an EoL requirement>this is asking too much of the poor AAA studioHow does that boot taste, nigger? This costs big studios nothing and should be a basic feature in every game anyway. They don't want to because planned obsolescence is a key part of every industry now, and you're expected to drop cowadooty 27 the second cowadooty 28 comes out like a good little goy. Keep defending kikes and their kike practices while celebrating the consumer getting railed in the ass.
>>537242475so >>537241910 who you disagreed with was correct all along?The ability to run a server is something you implement at development time, not something that you are forced to do later.What are you arguing about here exactly?
>>537242615The European Parliament can not make laws. They only say Yes/No to the proposals of the Commission.
>>537242665didn't need to include it, there are other ways to reverse engineer server side requests to get a game running, this killed any decent chance we might have had at actually imprvoing the situation because you mother fuckers can't look at this rationally "well it's almost nothing "well it really SHOULD be a feature" so fucking comical, boots licking is for goverment pandering btw, which is the side you're taking, and the EU of all places
>>537240291Unless the TOS specified everlasting love server access, there was no way this would have ever won. Wonder what happened to all that money they raised.
>>537240291>he won>reputation ruined>petition went through>game still unreleasedwhat is losing in that case?
>>537240360>fuck gamersReminder: This guy said he believed in the spirit of the initiative and agreed with the goal of preserving games. He just didn't agree with the way they were going about it, so instead of just hearing him out and disagreeing with him, they treated him like he murdered someone.There are thousands of videos on Youtube, even multi-hour video essays, about how he is a piece of shit just because he said "I don't think this will work" lmao
>>537242684alright you are correct, if the proposal was for games to implment it before it comes out, that would be more in line with how regulatory laws function, but it goes to far against the norms for IP & copyright, which i'm 1000% against but companies will use that precedence to nuke it from orbit, they aren't shipping a game that day 1 people will be making competeting servers for that they were forced to give them
Billy Mitchell won
>>537240291>EU is a bunch of bureaucratic pussies who won't take any decisions and will keep running from their responsibilities foreverw-wow who knew
>>537242816>if the proposal was for games to implment it before it comes outyes, that was the proposal, and EOL plan
>>537242816the best you can do is give yourself protection for after the game is dead to legally tinker with it's corpse, you are asking for way to much trying to propose legal obligations
>>537242751>corporate bootlicking isn't a thingsure thing, kike.>boots licking is for goverment pandering btw, which is the side you're takingmeanwhile you celebrate the government siding with big corporations instead of the people.>AAA (million/billion dollar studio) coding a private server function is an unreasonable demandslurp slurp shine that boot, faggot.
>>537242845so you want both lol, pick one or the other
>Stop killing games>by killing the entire industryPETA levels of cognitive dissonance
>>537242903you guys far overestimate the power of corporations to the point you equate them with goverments, again the entire movement is just a bunch of pseuds who coudn't logic their way out of babies first theory of authority
>>537242756TOS almost always happen after point of sale; therefore are not legally binding regardless of what they say. You are correct that the entire premise of Stop Killing Games is absurd though.
>>537242903so u are bootlicking the government to control video games
>>537241737goldberg emulator https://mr_goldberg.gitlab.io/goldberg_emulator/
How did any of these retards believe for even a second that the EU would do anything for the benefit of the people?Don't they know what the EU is?Don't they know 90% of what they do is thinking up laws to make life shittier for the average European?I agree with everything Stop Killing Games wanted and the only reason I didn't sign their petition is that they were asking the EU to enact more regulations.There has never been a case when an EU regulation didn't make things worse than they were for the average guy.I guess this is the better outcome, of the EU did decide to enact something it would've been the mother of all Monkey's Paws.
>>537240598I'm a lot more interested in someone's pogroming abilities than their programming abilities.
>>537240291 I told the stop killing games retards that the EU initially took their claims seriously because of the deceptive sales practices that were going on, not the actual pants on head retarded demand a company make a online game playable/allow their copyright to be violated. They just kept being smug retards and when the dust settled the legal Chads were right. The EU will step in and make it so companies have to label if a game is being taken offline and make them be more transparent life expectancy. For example Madden 2027 will say "Online features such as weekly X mode roster updates will stop working by March 2028". This was the actual real claim that got the stop killing games retards in the door. Not that the government will compel companies to do work for free or allow piracy.Legal Chads won.
>>537243128their copyright isn't violated
>>537240382There was no lobbying though. They just looked at the proposition and said "yeah nah" and that was itFucking retarded gamers lmao
>>537241778the scarcity is the hardware, you own that everything else, the information is just replicated and arranged into infinite state that you can't really lay claim to, but as long as money still exists if you follow the chain of logic to conlcusion and just decalre ideas can't be owned or stolen you tke away people's motivation and revenue source, only way to suplement that without it collapsing is with giving developers UBI or some social contract to value their work, though in many cases they'll still make money volnatrily from people
>>537240813his viewership on twitch is down 90% from his peakand all because of wow kek
>>537242665I can install Battlefield 2 from a DVD I bought ages ago and it still works, there are AI bots, private servers etc. and somehow devs could do it 20 years ago and it was the norm.Now it's some lost ancient-aliens tier technology, we simply can't replicate it!
>>537240771>Bring them to courtCan work>sue them for illegal back door deals and destroying the democratic processBut not that.Bringing case up to ECJ on ground of consumer rights and illegal clauses may bring effect. But from what I read in this thread, activists (as always) were not smart enough to make a good case for it and use that route. >the system only works for wealthy jews and big corporationsECJ have long history of fucking corporations and jews over and over again. For past couple years we have nearly a monthly court rulings saying that usury is to be banned and confirming that yet another clever bank idea to bypass consumer protection laws is illegal and bank have to pay.
>>537243118they just get emotional, they feel like they're constantly loosing, so they start to give up their principles just so they can get a win in, humans are social and saving face is ultimately the largest driving factor in most people, you get desperate enough you're even willing to make deals with people you'd hate otherwise just for a chance to have any kind of control of a life mostly bereft of it
>>537243185Making a unauthorized private server for a online game is copyright/IP violation. Let me be very clear for you, this isn't a moral argument, this is me telling you how the legal system views this/court rulings. Blizzard, as recently as April successfully sued and shut down several private servers. Nintendo successfully shuts down fan projects all the time and when the autists try to contact lawyers they get told they have no case. Again not saying this is morally correct, this is how copyright/IP laws work. Even if the company is not actively producing or selling the property/game and has no plans to it has vast amounts of control over other people doing shit in regards to trying to recreate the online servers. Even if you reverse engineer them and code it yourself. Yes the law needs to be reformed. I even suggested that to stop killing games they should be focusing their time and effort and the positive energy to wide scale IP reform. I got handwaved by the smug asshats. Again, Legal Chads won.
>>537243392why would every game be battlefield 2? just play that game then, retard
>>537240291...yeah bit sad innit...oi, you catch uesterday's footie with mukumbo?
>>537242210It's reddit. He supports the importation.
i don't like pirate but i feel like he was probably right about this, it just doesn't seem like the right call to make all game companies no matter how big or small to provide access to their games in perpetuity just so that 3 or 4 obsessed autists can keep playingthere's millions of great things to do in life, just move on
>>537243577Retarded or just pretending to be?
>>537240291There has been a paragraph in the initiative to make private servers illegal. Right at the time when that cellar nerd gave his speech at the EU they shut down Turtle WoW.Stop killling games my ass.
>>537240771What proof do you have that there are illegal backdoor deals?
>>537243737Then they shouldn't advertise them as games, but as services if you don't own them.
>>537240291>>537240431Online slop is slop, and anybody thats playing these games are goyim.
>>537240537>>537240692>>537240745>>537240792>>537240512APOLOGIZE RIGHT FUCKING NOW!
>>537240903>You will buy GTA VI for any priceHonestly, I'm not hyped for the new gta.I haven't played a Rockstar game in almost a decade.
>>537240512There are a lot of games that don't work with an offline mode. If game companies decide to shut down those games, just provide means for self hosting. It's not that hard. Live service game companies deserve the rope though
>>537240291I find it hilarious that this whole movement started over the fucking crew of all games, you know, the all time classic ubiwinchik
>>537242730Apparently the Parliament can propose amendments to the proposals of the Commission, so that's what they're hoping to do.
>>537242099Only if I use the pen to stab you in the neck, you limp wristed faggot.
>o, noes... I have to keep pirating while religiously avoiding any server reliant games
>>537244017I don't know about those guys, but I honestly think this is hilarious given the fact I thought pirate software was right.So many people jumped on the bandwagon of stop killing games, and in the process they saw pirate as a "threat" to their cult. When he was in reality just stating an obvious fact about corporate software.
>>537244168Just remember to keep using those cloud based LLMs goy!!
>>537240291Well then.Perhaps Lord Gaben & Valve will come to the gamers' rescue.I've been wondering why Valve hasn't offered server hosting services through Steam.
>>537240291You either have a backed-up HDD full of repacked vidya or you don't really care about owning your games.
>>537244272What year are you living in that you don't have a self-hosted server?
>>537244168TANUKI GIRLS OWE ME SEXAnd a leafAfter I nut inside them they can put a leaf on my dickhead and then mock me for getting tricked into fucking my own handI won't even feel bad about itReal recognizes real and I was NOT familiar with the tanuki game,But seriously tho, I need to get up in those trash panda walls and unlesh gallons.
>>537240903This. If people didn't buy it, they wouldn't make it. Same with films. There are already enough good games and films to last a lifetime. Stop rewarding them.
>>537243562>never heard of FDS and clearly zoomer aged https://logicservers.com/game-serversthats a lot of IP infringement huh?
>>537244310>TANUKI GIRLS OWE ME SEXMoth girls ALWAYS satisfy!
>>537240291Ferret fuckers belong in hell, hell where they are sodomized by ferrets they abused in life.
>>537242147Sorry, gamers expect a level of quality which is only obtainable by investing millions of dollars into the game, at which point you either implement the scam and receive funding or you are not granted funding and your game is never developed unless you are willing to dedicate 10 years of your life to develop yourself something which will be outdated on day 1 and has no guarantee how much revenue it would generate for you and for what amount of time
>>537240813Yeah he's a botter.This guy has fallen off and is done.
>>537243279It's even lower than when he first began with zero growth. What a fucktard.
>>537240291If you mean getting exposed as a narcissistic twat is winning.
>>537240291He didn't win shit, his reputation and grift was utterly destroyed. He isn't even making 10% of what he used to make.
>>537242779>Reminder: This guy said he believed in the spirit of the initiative and agreed with the goal of preserving games. He just didn't agree with the way they were going about it, so instead of just hearing him out and disagreeing with him, they treated him like he murdered someone.>There are thousands of videos on Youtube, even multi-hour video essays, about how he is a piece of shit just because he said "I don't think this will work" lmaoHim saying "I don't think this will work">Now this is actually really dumb.>It's used car salesman garbage.>This is shit! It's Shit!>Not only do I not want to back this, I'm going to actively tell people not to.>That is awful>That is a horrible goddamn direction.>That's awful>Eat my entire ass!>This shit sucks. I think this is ass.>This is completely garbage.>All of this can eat shit then.>I dropped the mask entirely.>They can eat my entire ass.>The whole thing.>That sounds stupid as shit.
>>537240291He still has a second chance with the EU Parliament. It would still require the planets and stars to be aligned, but it's a chance nonetheless.Also; two weeks before the EU Commission came to this decision they had a meeting behind closed doors with Ubisoft. So if you own their stocks you might wanna watch them.
>>537244836Lmfao.PirateSoftware is ITT right now seething.
>>537240291"When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things."--1 Corinthians 13:11Video games are for children.
Everyone should apologize to PirateSoftware
>>537244817He should learn2code then KEK.
>>537240291>>537240382"Democracy" exists only in your head. It's a magic show so you don't revolt and liquidate your ruling caste. You believe you have control over your destiny, but you don't. Democracy is the lie. It is the perfect slavery. One where you don't see the bars, and where you think your piece of paper matters. Vote all you want. It won't change a thing.
>>537244916So are jewish myths.
>>537240813uh oh, we got a problem
>>537244972Jesus is God.
>>537240771>Sue the entire EUanon...
He won lol
>>537240382Now, gamergater, that you have seen how it works. Go all the way up the ladder and see that it is the same in politics.
>>537240291never understood the stop ruining games thing. Generally speaking, if consumers want a game, developers will eventually patch it so it is playable on modern systems so they can sell it.
Kiwifarms sisters... we lost? Again?
>>537242275Gotta be the same jeet posting gay ai trump slop all over the board
>>537244554You are either a troll or a retard so not going to reply other than to call you such.>Posting games where the dev/company/publisher clearly set it up as such to have private servers.>Not reading or lacking the ability to understand I said UNAUTHORIZED SERVERS.>Implying that I said it was morally okay or technically impossible for companies to do this and now what the legal standard is. Legal Chads won.stop killing games lost.
>>537244487I think the first step in that is to force them to advertise it in an honest manner. Let the people know right out of the gate that at some point in the future they will no longer have this game they baught. That they are not buying a game, but a service.Treat it like certain cunts treat cigerette packaging.
>>537240382LOL cucksgay cucks"use the tool that is praised by the EU"HAHAHA they sat on the BBC and now they're crying
You lost tranny
>>537245122has a license for service the same value as a physical media disc?
>>537240771>the democratic process.you dont understand the first thing about the EU is you even contemplate repeating this clown phrase
>>537245105So then what's the problem with a law? We already established it's possible, no ongoing costs, and literally down to publisher preference. I'm not seeing what the issue is making the companies that choose not to, have to. We all have to conform with the law. I don't see your argument.
>>537240291The funniest shit is that this is the first thing that finally made the EU chud-kosher. Everyone loved it. Asmon used to call it an EU W, that it allowed stuff like this to happen while America didn't. MAGA gamers were generally cordial. GG spheres like this site supported it. No one on the European right opposed it.And then they fumbled the bag. There's a reason why - it's because giving an inch to populist chudism will immediately lead to an immigration petition and who knows what else, and that's fucking scary if you're a neo-marxist. Why would you allow a petition backed by Elon and Asmon and the like succeed? So the alternative where you alienate the chuds once again and get them back to their anti-EU state is preferable, over having them hijack the EU. Ironically the marxists will themselves disband the EU if they have to just to stop you from using it as an ideological launching pad against them, which is the secret backup plan that none of the NAFO trannies are willing to utter in front of you. There are very few people who're actually pro-EU, most of them are marxist parasites that have attached themselves to the idea but will not hesitate to kill it should it become your ideological vehicle.
>>537245175No, he's right.Illegal back door deals is indeed how the EU functions. We're still waiting for Pfizerella's texts.
>>537242062
>>537245167No, but because they market it dishonestly it effectively does.
>>537240771>destroying the democratic process.There is no democratic process. The EU has allowed much worse things to happen, like having Bulgaria ban the Euro referendum and then blatantly falsify data to join the Eurozone. None of the complaints issued about this, no matter how formal, were ever registered in any capacity.The EU is a subversive tool that you capture with an ideology and use it to buckbreak the continent. There's nothing else to it.
>>537245211This
>>537245211>Why would you allow a petition backed by ElonThat's all you had to say really.The EU is full-conspiratard tinfoil hat when it comes to Elon Musk.
>>537242062about jewish gangsters, tha'ts what AIPAC itself was founded by: literal mafia jews
>>537245283 if purchasing is not ownership, pirating is not thievery.
>>537242333no it doesnt your entertainment must dispossess and castrate youthat's what they've been dong to gaming since 2004 (release of WoW)
>>537245289True.And when they want something they just do infinity voting until they get their way. Their decision on SKG is entirely unbelievable.
>>537240648>>Ubisoft has reported a record operating loss of €1.3 billion for the financial year ending March 2026ubishit will never diethey are goblins
>>537245442They were actually very close to imploding (hence the Tencent deal), and if their remakes don't work out they'll be in serious trouble.Their waves of layoffs aren't something they do out of a luxury position.
>>537245275communism is a stateless, classless, and moneyless society
>>537245387>doesnt understand what a license ismany such 70 iq cases
>>537245553I've never seen a website that let's you lease games.
>>537245598probably cos u are brown and cant afford games
>>537245553yo, here is the thing. I dont give a fuck about a license. I just want to play that stupide game. Why should i care about some license paper? Oh wow, such great wording on that paper, will run even on win89xp, can be read with microsoft reader, epic.fuck the license.
>>537244299Current. Right when I was finally gonna make one AI popped off and HDDs are expensive
>>537245627>low 70 iqpeel the egg right off your face dipshit lol
>>537244272What games are worth playing today that wre delisted? Don't most people make their own server to keep online rpgs rolling?
>>537245645you cant pirate a game that is online-only, silly brownoid
>>537244141yeah, that's what voting No does, it tells the commission:>we disagree with what you propose, amend it and we may vote againBut why would the commission give out any proposal whatsoever in the first place?
>>537245662I better pray to Jesus that none of my 16TB drives dies.
>>537245914No, I'm saying that the European Parliament apparently has the power to actually introduce amendments to the proposals of the Commission by themselves and to vote on them. Or at least that's what Stop Killing Games claims now. They want to try to amend the Digital Fairness Act when it will be proposed to the Parliament
>>537240291>Bros we won we can let corporations to fuck us over yeahhaaaakek jew mindraped cattle is always funny.
>>537240382I really want to leave the EU. Hopefully it'll dawn on normies why thanks to this.
>>537240771>Bring them to court and sue themDo you happen to have jewish blood in you?
>>537244998>>537244836>>537244817>>537244690>>537240713Sign on the line please!
>>537240291I'm confused pirate what did you win, you reputation is trashed nobody watches your channel everybody thinks you're a fagot and everybody knows you're a moron. You didn't win it's just that the initiative that would have made all the games continue to be able to be played failed. So really everyone lost including you, especially you.What's even sadder is that there's about a 95% chance you are actually the one that made this thread because you're that pathetic
>>537245998>at least that's what Stop Killing Games claims nowWhatever those dumb believers in democracy claim is completely irrelevant. If they would have any idea about how EU laws, they would have looked into past citizen initiatives, and would have realized how many of those got stomped down.The parliament can not do anything on their own. The commission has to get the ball rolling. If the commission simply proposes nothing, there is nothing for the parliament to vote on.You are just getting lied to.They always do this. Members of the EU parliament tell you that they are totally on your side and love you, because it gets them publicity (they are also the only ones who are being elected by the people), while they know that they will never have to decide on it anyway.They promise you something and then tell you "haha, sorry, the commission shut it down :(".They do this for as long as the EU exists already. We witnessed this for multiple decades now. Yet SKG is incapable to just... look into the past and see how things work?At this point... It's a scam. There is no way in this world that SKG still doesn't know how it works, after all this time. They scam you.
>>537240382>eu>democracyThe commies won. Wake up you lowly stupid sheep
>>537240291If a game require a always on-line server to which you can't host your own then DON'T buy it. The faster the AAA game industry collapses the better.
>>537240291gaymers should be happy that their ferret fucking representative won
>>537240382I agree with the premise of their argument that vidya which is shut down should be able to be ran but it was foolish to think this would pass into law. Governments bow to corporations. Doesn't matter if it is democracy or monarchy or communism. The system is working as designed.
>>537246296and btw. the woman that they got to present the result, Marion Walsmann is from the same party, from the same country, that Von der Leyen comes from!Her party is in charge of the Commission, yet she tells you to keep going and don't give up and that the EU is actually great and on your side fr fr no cap :DAfter that press conference she went to have dinner with her mate Von der Leyen and laughed about how fucking retarded the StopKillingGames plebs are.
>>537246235He wasnt right.
>>537246235>defending a literal pedo and ferret rapist to "own da gaymers"Poojeets really will shoot themselves in the nose to spite their faces
