I get modding a game like fallout new vegas because underneath all the flawed junk, there's a somewhat decent game, but ubisoft slop that wasn't even that good? Okay... cool.

if you let them take the rights you don't care about then eventually they'll take the ones you do. freedom isn't black or white, it's a spectrum - one that those in power will never stop trying to narrow
>>
>>719620910
What's the slippery slope here? They take away our inherently bad live service games and this leads to.... taking away offline games which is not possible?

be prepared to never own anything ever again. it'll start with software - everything will be proprietary, subscription based and tied to your real ID, once that's firmly established then hardware will be locked down, running "unauthorised" programs will flag you for investigation, any sort or personal/private activity will be seen as suspicious. sure you can keep your 40yo PC running your 50yo offline games but you're a dying breed and one equipment failure from losing your dragon hoard of things you actually own. by all means be smug about "losing the right to eat shit" because one day that's all you'll get and you'll have to smile and pay them for the privilege

OY VEYYYYYYY SHUT IT DOWN GOYIM. this is anti-semetic! you can't play after we shut it down you fucking bigots!

So... what was the point of going after Ubisoft if the community was going to do it themselves?
>>
>>719621742
why should they shut down games in the first place? people shouldn't have to mod their games and open themselves to lawsuits to get them to continue to work you cocksucker
>>
>>719621742
skg was never about getting the crew back, it doesn't even apply to existing games, it's about getting publishers to be more honest about the lifespan of their games and having end-of-life plans for when they eventually become unsupported

This could be the biggest blow against SKG.

Unless the EU resolves this in 2 weeks, Ubisoft can point at the fact that they're allowing this The Crew private server to exist as proof the current laws and systems are fine.
Of course Ubisoft could screw up this win by shutting it down but it's still possible. Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if this had Ubisoft support behind the scenes purposely to make this case for them.
>>
>>719622247
SKG is not about The Crew. I don't know what makes you think it's even about Ubisoft, it's not a lawsuit, it's a glorified petition to the EU technocrat overlords
>>
>>719622247
>they're allowing this The Crew private server to exist
so? we're back to the original problem
>someone pulls the plug on the server
>game becomes unplayable
that doesn't solve shit. not to mention
>server can be shut down by ubishit anytime (>muh EULA, >muh ToS, >muh copyright!)
>latency (players outside america (or europe) are fucked)
>performance and functionality, and other constraints (it was reverse-engineered so you really can expect some issues that weren't in the original)
>>
>>719619328
So fans CAN preserve games and we don't need boomer governments regulating video games? Thanks for killing any argument the SKGtards had
>>
>>719622564
Can they?

>>719621274
Pretty ambiguous Tbh...
For example, https://downloads.fcmodding.com which has all the best far cry series mods has a pretty strict anti piracy stance. The mod organizer/launcher verifies the hashes for specific files and searches if specific crack files exist so it will just break.
Same shit for WD Legion's scripthook. These two modding tools need to be cracked which is silly, and it's probably going to be the same with Crew's offline mode.

>>719619707
Discord is jewish.
>>
>>719622460
It's not about The Crew but The Crew is the most high profile one that SKG has used as an example.
The point is that if Ubisoft doesn't stop it from continuing, Ubisoft and the game dev industry and use it as an example of how current laws already allow for the extension of a games life. The arguments can be need more laws when it can already happen organically.

>>719622510
>performance and functionality
This is the argument the industry is making to counter SKG, that they can't guarantee the games playability and experience once they've moved on.

I never said it'll completely null and void SKG but it'll do more damage to it than it not existing, the only way it helps SKG is by being forcibly shut down.
>>
>>719619328
Now please, someone do the same for NFS 2015 reboot. It really could use a patch for offline play and some bugs.
