Counting process is well underway and so far only 3% of the votes counted thus far are illegitimate.
Nothing to talk about til it hits EU parliament
>>720718873There is a thread currently right now in progress presently.
>>720718873>i'm already at 95% valid votesFTFY
>>720718873THAT'S FUCKING RIGHT, THAT SHITTY "MOVEMENT" IS GOING TO BE DEAD WHEN IT TURNS OUT 80% OF THE VOTES WERE FRAUDULENT.
>>720719013>>720719946of course he writes his own page on his own wiki
>>720718873>SKG: "I don't want to be a corpo bitch!">SKG: "I prefer being a goverment bitch instead!"Or you could, just, you know, not buy live service games, so companies will stop making them?>SKG: "But I want to CONSOOM!"
>>720720043>just vote with your wallet bro.I did. The cattle proceeded to pour billions of $ into the live service slop. I'm done. We need gooberment to wrangle the retards, so I can enjoy games with big budgets again.
>>720720043I tried not consooming, and all I got is a shitty industry that nickels and dimes me at every turn.I didn't buy DLC, yet it became ubiquitous.I didn't buy lootboxes, yet it became ubiquitousI didn't buy any season passes or battle passes, yet it became ubiquitous.I didn't buy games that required a central online connection, yet tons of games I would've otherwise been interested in had it.Point being, I've tried voting with my wallet, but my one vote means nothing.
>>720720043>just ignore the problem bro!!!No. I will openly speak up against always online bullshit. Years of ignoring it never did anything good, so time for the industry to get whipped.>b-but muh goverment-European switches can't ever get nuked. Resale of used software is fully legal. You are not allowed to jew your customers and get away with it for long. This is how things look like when you're a european king.
>>720720043I didn't sign it though.
>>720720043>Gamers create a problem.>Gamers don't want to take responsibility for the problem they created.>Gamers then ask the government to take responsibility for the problem they created instead.It's that simple, isn't it?
>buy a car>manufacture says they are going to take it away from you now, no refunds>gamers: just buy another car, if the manufacture wants to take their car back they can
>>720718873I just love how much of a fraud Pirate Software turned out to be and how much he is being dunked on nowadays
LOL
>>720720043Putting a kill switch into any product should be illegal as fuck, should nipped in the bud ASAP, imagine if cars just stopped working because they pushed out a 3mb update, they’d have riots with people suing left and right.Game industry is the one of the few that was ripe for molestation with how little laws and regulations have been created in regards to its existence, legal sweatshops, Customer legal rights are basically nonexistent or circumvented outright if they do, Seeking redress is unheard of, probably a good number of these AAA studios participate in budget fraud (there’s reason some of these games should have upwards of a 100 million dollar budgets)
>>720720175"Just vote with your wallet!" is the warcry of people who know they'll win. If meth was legal, every tweaker would say "just vote with your wallet and don't buy it, and there'll be less rampaging junkies!" because they know they can't lose. The material is too predatory, the money pumped in is already too big for it to fail. It's often labeled as a platitude, but it's worse than one, because at least those indicate someone means well. Telling someone to vote with their wallet is directly antagonistic, where at best the person saying it is totally unaware and somewhat naive, and in most cases, it's a convenient cover to shift the blame onto you and deflect from the game itself because they're rats with electrodes in their brain.They might point to one or two things that sucked and died, and say "look, they voted with their wallets against Brink! you don't hear much about Heroes of the Storm anymore, do you?" with a smug finger-wag as though those exceptions to the rule prove their point, instead of looking at the reality: the people behind those games saw those failures, got way greedier and way more evil, and are now making money hand-over-fist because there is no effective way for a consumer to protest the Fucking Retard demographic, in anything. But those people will never point to something they like, like WoW or FF14 or Borderlands or Diablo Immortal or whatever the fuck dopamine blackmail delivery service they sink 72 hours into a week, and say "well, it must be good, because lots of people vote for it". That would give away their argument for what it is.You are never talking to someone in good faith when they tell you to vote with your wallet. Rarely, it might be someone deeply out of touch, but most often you're talking to fucking junkie. They do not care about legitimate criticisms or flow-on effects. They care about getting their fix, and they see your argument as a threat to it. They're gloating that you can't take their crack pipe away.
>>720720043You lost.>inb4 "y-you too"Nope. Won.
>>720720043your enemies will use government against you, you abstaining out of lolbert moralfaggotry will achieve nothing
>>720720043>Or you could, just, you know, not buy live service gamesThe initiative is not about live service games not existing, it is about end-of-life preservation to ensure your game isn't left in a state of unplayability. This point is brought up every video, but for some reason people still never remember it. also:>just vote with your wallet loldoesn't work. getting the EU involved legally does however
>>720720997"Vote with your wallet" being used to tell people to shut up and stop criticizing shit really is just totally nonsensical anyway. If it comes down to a "vote" then campaigning loudly and aggressively to convince people not to buy slop is necessary to shape the market. "Vote with your wallet"fags already seem pretty upset about loud negativity around products, bit curious.
>>720720043I don't buy this shit because I know it's assthe paypiggies that do override anything I have to say though and keep getting it made, so yes getting the government to actually do it's job and prevent retards from ruining shit for everybody instead of just taking corpo handouts while we all get fucked in the ass is the correct solution as opposed to "lol bro just do nothing"
To think, we probably wouldn't be anywhere near to the goal if it wasn't for one furfag ruining his reputation and Ross destroying his "arguments".
