>Why are jews afraid of not getting money
Gee i wonder why, let's bring an expert from Harvard

>>719459589
You have (hundreds of) thousands of players and are worried about a few hundred people making custom servers

>>719458828
One word:
control

which games have good private servers?

so far i've heard of:
wow
genshin
everquest

>>719462710
Final fantasy xi
Any early 2000s mmo or multiplayer game

>>719462863
FFXI private servers are awful because LSB is awful. There is still not a single private server with ToAU content fully functional despite private servers being around for almost a decade

there was a ff11?

>>719462710
L2
RO
BDO
CoH/CoV

>>719458828
Daybreak itself threatens it more so than anything else.

>>719463291
wat

>>719462119
they can kill the server, but they can't kill the idea.

pservers are legitimate threats, because they are a constant reminder that kikes exist and ruin everything they touch.

>>719458828
because it's against tos and copyright violation

>>719464543
Fuck off corpo shill

>>719464543
>tos
Not legally enforceable
>copyright
Nice meme
How's that boot taste?

>>719464712
kill yourself stupid commie

>>719458828
Why would I pay an MMO subscription fee or purchase skin pack microtransactions in a shooter if I can get all that and more for free on private servers?

>>719462710
PSO, PSU

>>719462119
it's something greater, and more about the IP.
the legal world requires you "enforce' it (the ownership), or a future lawyer could make the case that some other entity could loophole profit because the IP's legality was weak due to it not being actively defended.
Which ultimately means, you have to be a jew to fans, in order to protect from not getting turbo-jewed later on by some rats.
Granted, there's some middleground, but typically it's why companies like nintendo and disney are so obsessed with being litigious.

>>719458828
You had corpos whining about Stop Killing Games with the reasoning that since self-hosted servers would be out of their control they wouldn't be able to moderate speech. Seriously, these retards shit themselves at the thought of people saying what they want without getting banned, and they'll even go as far as to claim that letting people communicate naturally is bad for the brand.

>>719463612
Lineage 2
Ragnarok Online
Black Desert Online
City of Heroes/City of Villains

>>719463267
No, they skipped it and went straight to 12.

>>719464543
Yes bro, every dev that ever let players run servers locally was SURRENDERING THE COPYRIGHT
Better go tell Johnny Carmack and ID they don't really own Quake, the FUCKING IDIOTS

Imagine still pushing this bullshit post-SKG

>>719465947
It's right, ok? It's their decision.

>>719462710
>genshin
it has private servers? how does it work?

>>719458828
because they know they provide better service

>>719466362
>Its their decision to prevent you from running and playing the game you paid for
Yeah no
>but this legal bullshit says
No one gives a fuck, kike

>>719466516
You're just a nigger with no respect for property and ownership

>>719466660
Funny, I would say the same to you

>>719458828
If the base game becomes unprofitable they will shut for the many tens of thousands of players who play it, purely so a few hundred can screw around for free.

>>719462710
Newer mmorpgs cannot have private servers, they are almost impossible to emulate.

>>719466860
Daybreak servers are fucking ghost towns. Mostly because daybreak are greedy fucking retards doing their best to milk the ever living fuck out of their games instead of providing good user experience.

>>719466860
EQ still has a subscription and enough players to keep development for new expansions going. They aren’t losing anything from a small server of 200 max players.

>>719463164
>almost
More than a decade. I played on dsp's test server back in 2012.
On one hand it's weird they still aren't at our even past ToAU, on the other hand it was crazy to see how much happened since I stopped using DSP after olaying on it for 1.5 years.

>>719463164
Retail ffxi is fine. I really think the subscription price should be lowered to 8 dollars or at least have a plan that includes 14 and 11 together.

>>719465605
this guy gets it

>>719466920
why?

>>719463164
>being around for almost a decade
there were /vg/ groups in 2012

>>719462710
Mabinogi

>>719468691
Server code is heavily obfuscated. To this day there are no working FFXIV servers because there's too much scripting that's hidden.

Genshin only got private servers because of a Chinese leak.

>>719466363
it's a leaked server file so it's identical.
there is a docker image, you spin it up and connect you & friends to it.
needs client v3.2 or 3.3. so you don't get anything newer than nahida.

>>719465854
any of those good? i hace bdo on steam, it was free, but apparently the mtx is insane so i never played it

>>719469797
why arent there more leaks
