>"STOP KILLING GAMES">"NO NOT THAT ONE, THAT CAN DIE"why are gamers such hypocrites?
>>730739516then save it, retard. You want other people to do the work for you.
>>730739516Anthem didn't have any players so no one lost anything
The Crew was actually kind of cool, it was just rough around the edges.I feel like the subsequent games have gone in the wrong direction (although Motorfest has decent driving at least).
>>730739565NTA but wasnt StopKillingGames exactly that? The "you must join us, if you don't then you are a sheep and mindless consumer" cult?
I rather 100 shitty games be preserved so that 1 good one can also be preserved. It's not like there's a finite limit of games that can be preserved at a time.
>>730739749M
>>730739516So what's the excuse that this game needed to be shut down as opposed to going offline only?
I never ever heard of this game.
>>730739749no, why am I going to 'save' a game I don't care about? Nobody ever said anyone HAD to save anything, they just wanted access to assets after EOLdo it yourself
>>730740380Are you 15
>>730739516>assumes "finally" is expressing approvalESL?>assumed game journos and gamers want the same thingRetarded?
>>730739749>NTA but wasnt StopKillingGames exactly that? The "you must join us, if you don't then you are a sheep and mindless consumer" cult?You weren't a sheep and a mindless consumer for not wanting to join, you were a sheep and a mindless consumer for actively arguing against it.
>>730739516I thought this died years ago
bump
>>730739516Why do you think a games 'journalist' speaks for actual gamers?
>>730739749Being honest, the only reason I was for it is because I hate every aaa pubisher and wanted them to get the shit kicked out of them by goverment regulation.They deserve worse but its a good start.
>>730739749SKG only stated that games should have to require coding to allow them to be accessed and played after the game was taken offline. So in this situation, someone that owns the game should still be able to play it with their original copy. Which is fair, and anyone with a functioning frontal lobe would agree with that statement. I would go so far to say that if you disagree with this you are either a complete moron or an industry plant, and either way the world would be better served if you were televised being slowly lowered into a vat of lava
Thor won.
The problem with the "stop killing games" thing is that they're live-service games, which are bad and should just go away anyway
>>730739749>NTA but wasnt StopKillingGames exactly that?no, stk was just trying to force someone else to save games for you.>n-no it wasnt!yes it was, its why it failed the second it hit a court.
>>730739516EA should be forced to keep the game alive forever as a testament to their sins.
>>730739516noooo, not anthem....
>>730739516Even this game should be preserved. I care not for the quality.
>>730748994Some are not, like Hitman. You can play offline but all the progression is online only.
>>730749543based
>>730749049>yes it was, its why it failed the second it hit a court.The EU commission hearing hasn't even happened yet you retard
>>730749049I am so sick of retards on the internet not even bothering to do basic reading of anything they babble about.
>>730739516I always liked the look of anthemshame to hear it was shit
>>730739749its not your job to stop killing games, it's the publisher's
>>730739516If SKG was in, the game would be still alive and not for ever dead due to servers being offline.But oh well, retards be retards. That's what they pay you for
>>730739516Because you're retarded and think everyone who isn't you is some sort of allied front or hivemind.Hell even if Mr Carpenter was a proponent of the Stop Killing Games "movement", there's an entire seperate person who does headlines usually and their job isn't to care or promote issues or consistent messaging. It's to get you to click on the article without causing damages to the host site.Additionally, SKG was never going to be retroactive so Anthem was never a part of it. I do think Anthem should still exist in some form even if just for the sake of study and as a curio but you're just making noise for the sake of noise
>>730754203>you're just making noise for the sake of noiseThat really is all this site is now, it's a true shame.
>>730739749I didn't know that PirateSoftware posted on 4chan
>oy vey goy you vil NOT remember the past you vil NOT remember how good even mediocre games at the time were compared to modern kosher wokesloppa and you vil NOT indoctrinate the younger generation with your authentic, soulful, enjoyable media that is not demoralization agitprophbomberguy just passed away in hospital. press F to pay respects.
>>730739516What the fuck is Anthem?
>>730757404>hbomberguy just passed away in hospital.Really? What the fuck happened? F.
>>730757404>>730757523>hredditsoygoy>press fHello tourists, kindly go back to sucking dicks on r*ddit thank you.
>>730739516>company decides to kill game>its the gamers' fault???
>>730739749I'm just a miserable loser and I like seeing video game companies have to do more for less money and get nothing out of it.
>>730757404>HighguardUnironically had to search up the box art to verify it isn't that shitty.
>>730739749Lol you really just believe every psyop posted here huh?
>>730757759it's probably going the hyena$/fairgame$ route and never coming out lel
>>730739749>NTA but wasnt StopKillingGames exactly that?except that's not the caseSKG is about making it so companies have to make their game in a way that if/when they officially end support for it/shut down official servers, players can take over(with no monetary gain) to allow the game to still be played, either offline or on unofficial servers.As in, either release a patch(before dropping support) that allows the game to be played offline(if that's possible, as in, some SP games with limited online content, but which somehow require online connection to play even the offline content = patch the game to allow the offline content to be played offline or to unlock the online content offline), or a patch that lets the game connect to unofficial servers.After that, it's up to the players and communities to keep the game alive, and if there's no enough interest from the players themselves to try and do that, then the game dies cause the players let it, not the devs/publisher.SKG was never an hypocrtitical request, is a reasonable one to ALLOW players and communities to keep a game alive after official support ends, it has nothing to do with which games will actually be kept alive from their players and communities, and there's no one forcing any players or communities to do anything if interest is not there.The whole thing is about letting players decide, not devs/publishers.
>>730739749It was only about devs and publishers killing a game and not giving players what they need to revive it on our own merits.Not about games dying from severe disinterestBut the tools should be there for Anthem players to make their own servers.If you want to shill on 4chan tell your gandlers there's more to it than contrarianism. That's for trolling where the troll IS the goal.
>>730739516Because Bioware games are digital pollution
>Release date: Feb. 2019.I haven't really heard anything about Anthem since it's pre-launch gameplay video. Was it as good as that?
>>730739565>>730739749>wasnt StopKillingGames exactly that?yeah the way it works now is>game dies>devs take server down>fan club makes their own server>game producers get flustered that someone is enjoying a thing without giving them money>call swat to kill your dog and send you to pound me in the ass prison for enjoying a thing without having legal rightsstop killing games was basically about letting players have options to continue playing after devs pull support.This is bad because im a huge bootlicking retard and get paid by media conglomerate to push the opinions of big media CEOs, you should keep giving them money and move on to next product when they make a new game, if you dont you are a really bad person
>>730739516>ALL GAMES SHOULD DIE>NO NOT THAT ONE YOU CHUDSwhy are shills so retarded?
>>730757404>hbomberguy just passed away in hospital. press F to pay respects.what a retarded thing to lie about
>>730757895It comes out in two weeks apparently. It's going to be interesting considering everyone is dead silent about it despite it being this close to release.
>>730739516There hasn't been a game worth saving since GameSpy died and most of the GameSpy games have been saved.
>>730739749You're pretty much doing the equivalent of thinking that when people advocate for better fire safety in people's homes it's also their job to put out all fires in the area.
>>730759294Well, I remember how people were eager to destroy certain games>pic related as exampleand how happy they were when dev was forced to remove just because main characters were TLoU look-alikes. On the other hand, copies like Palworld are ok. Now, you may counterattack this with>but the game you posted is shitYes. Yes it is. Just like countless games with Tung Tung Sahur, Bombardillo Crocodillo, Tralalero Fuckmyass or whatever those characters are. But if someone wants to buy them, let them buy it.Why are certain blatant copies allowed bit other cause so much butthurt that you have to bully devs? The whole movement was supposed to call StopKillingCertainGames because of those double standards and hypocrisy.
>>730762350Stop Killing Games is about always-online games that become permanently unplayable once the developer chooses to pull the plug without the option to play the game offline or give people the chance to make their own servers>haha but I don't like live service so who caresDevs attempted to push always online in all sorts of ways. Diablo 3 is still online only, Sim City 2012 was unplayable without internet connection even for singleplayer, your levels and gear in Vermintide/Darktide are kept on a server etc. Tons of games are built to either lose important functions or become completely unplayable once they lose server connection.Meanwhile games are not killed if they get removed from Steam or something as long as they can still be downloaded and played.
>>730739516Ross got felted, PirateChads won
>>730739749Put me in the screen cap, since retards thougheverbeit genuine are responding to it
>>730739958It's published by EA, who don't give a shit if games die under their watch.
>>730739516That one can die because it died before SKG could possibly take effect, yeah. Even if SKG gets everything it wants, there’s still going to be a final dead game before the law changed.
>>730739516>"no not that one!"Yes, that one too. Don't cqre how shit the game is.
>>730739749It is mainly just asking the producers to keep an offline mode for games so they didn't totally vanish when the servers go down, and so the publisher couldn't just vanish the game>But /v/ said ----/v/ barely plays games, let alone takes the time understand things around them
>>730739516Dude. SKG must be first presented in the EU parliament. It got through and it will be presented at one point.But now the EU is concerned with ruining itself.
>>7307395165 people total played this game. No one cares about this one
>>730739749God you're so fucking stupid.
