Watch this video if you don't understand what the petition is about. It needs 400,000 more signatures.

Game companies kill 70 percent of online games:

https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/70-of-games-with-online-requirements-are-doomed-according-to-stop-killing-games-survey

This law would fight the trend, and is basically a "right to repair" law that would require companies to put games into a playable state for customers one last time after they stop supporting them. This would make it easier for gamers to preserve video games, or to host private servers, or to play games over LAN. It'll be like in the good old 90s BEFORE ENSHITIFICATION.

Things aren't fine. Don't listen to the naysayers.

blackpilling how few signed it. In the entire EU not even one mil care enough to spend 2 minutes of their time.
Does anything even matter at this point?

>>509071349
shut up redditor. Your commie nonsense would just make companies even LESS willing to risk money in games that aren't sure things than they already are since they'd be on the hook for supporting it even if it was a total failure.

this is PEAK europeon behavior desu sempai

Can we get rid of these retarded jannies plz. This is a videogame thread.

>>509070184 (OP)
Eurape doesnt even make videogames? wtf are these retards on about?

>>509074468
What company has been spending hundreds of millions of dollars and making good games? Lol the best games i've played in the past 15 years are all by lone devs or very small teams working for the love of their craft rather than for jew dollars. Go suck off bobby kotick

>>509074461
>pic from over a week ago
I blame it on mix of people not bothering with learning enlish above tourist level and YT suppressing the video sharing algorithm to lower the general awareness about it. Hmm, maybe it would be worth it to try to contact big ESL channels from these countries to see if they could get interested?

>>509074938
The few ESL countries that had strong vidya communities where the ones that voted first. We passed the minimum country mark very quickly. All ESL's that could be educated have been. Its so over.
Ngl this kinda makes me wonder where they got the 1 mil requirement from. Just sounds like they picked a nice sounding number. % of the EU population would be way bigger and basing it on the number of actual voters would be smaller.

>>509074461
The faggot petition to criminalize conversion succeeded lol.
Grim.

By agreeing to sell me a video game, the developers have voluntarily entered into a lifelong contract of servitude to me, and I WILL be collecting on that debt.

>>509076059
which petition?

>>509076525
all they had to do is not be greedy fucks and keep the LAN and custom servers options like the games used to have 30 years ago.

>>509070184 (OP)
It gained like 150k signatures in the last week. Are we winning?

You guys still play videogames? Jesus Christ what are you even playing?

>>509074461
The people needed are just a very unfortunate intersection.
Most people don't care about games and among gamers political apathy and data privacy concerns are very common.
I usually don't sign shit like this either.

>>509074856
The best-selling game in the universe was made in Europe and written in Java. Haters gonna hate but that's the truth.

There was another petition from fags that wanted to criminalize gay conversion therapy.
They got a million signatures but we can't.

/v/ is a worthless garbage board for corporations to advertise on and has no other use.

The mods of /v/ are the biggest fucking pieces of shit on all of 4chan. They actively cultivate a culture of mindless consumerism and pro-corporate sentiment.
When you report someone for breaking rules they will always side with whatever retard is speaking the most positively about corporations and kike behavior. They are biased, do not do their job properly, and bring the quality of the site with how selective they are with moderation.

/v/ mods are nigger vermin and if I ever meet one of those faggots in real life, I am going to jail for pulling their tiny little cock through their crooked mouth.
Hiro needs to gut that entire board of it's current mods and replace them.

The mods of /v/ drive down site traffic.
They aren't just gay. They are costing the site money.

>Ignore this problem
>Car drives off the road one day because you lost connection briefly to your always-online driving software
>Grandma's pacemaker is turned off because they don't feel like supporting it anymore

Stupid nigger kike enabler.

>>509074468
All they have to do is take the game server code they already wrote, and put it on a github repository for free once service ends. This wouldn't cost much extra.

>>509077454
Sure thing. Enjoy not succeeding with your petition then.

There's this dead board I post in. I'm the only poster there. I find myself posting there because it's SO AMAZING to just be able to post normal shit without flipping a coin about whether it's going to get deleted or make me banned.

I cheer for these "video games" to be killed. This is all about multiplayer faggot shit. Multiplayer faggots are the people who came into my beloved games and ruined them. You get what you fucking deserve. I hope this fails.

>>509077450
seconded, mods killed retro doom projects on many occasions
btw, play the OG DOOM games, literally better than the beta shit that just came out

You're on /pol/ and you don't see this from a mile away? You're retarded.

>>509077948

Always good music, though. I still jam out to Goldenrod City from time to time

I love the gameplay too.

Gameplay gen 4
That's peak pokemon.

>>509074468
You haven't watched nor comprehended the initiative have you, retard.

This is NOT what he's saying. He's saying they should have an "end of life plan", NOT support it forever.

That end of life plan could be making it open source, or just delivering a self-server setup.

This has literally never affected me in the slightest. I play exclusively singleplayer games and if it's a steam exclusive I always pirate it. Get fucked multiplayer niggers you ruined games for the last 30 years you get what you fucking deserve.

>>509078312
I enjoyed the gameplay when I was a child. Interactive rock-paper-scissors loses its charm when Titanfall 2 exists

>>509078490
>will
>This has literally never affected me in the slightest
Yep, it's retarded.

I haven't played a multiplayer game in 20 years, you stupid faggot.

>>509077246
Can i get a link? I can't believe it.

>>509078490
>I play exclusively singleplayer games
Lol pretty soon not without a constant server connection

>>509077036
Digital Combat Simulator, in VR.

>>509078624
>>509078602
Try again. I'm playing DCSS and Battle for Wesnoth and Thief Fan missions. Your multiplayer problems are literally NEVER going to be my problems. I'm glad it's happening to you for what you did to video games in general. YOU GET WHAT YOU FUCKING DESERVE

>>509078598
No, it doesn't. The game look is literally addictive, it's like nothing else. No one will remember Titanfall in 20 years, meanwhile people will still play Pokemon in 100 years.
>>509078609
Don't have it, someone posted a screenshot on /v/.

>>509078490
>go to pirate a singleplayer game
>it doesn't exist because it was taken down and no one gave a shit enough to crack it
OR
>unable to pirate because of online-only requirement and verification servers no longer exist
See the problem yet, chud?

I think all the contrarian Americans are just upset that they have less consumer rights

I mean only half of the eu would vote for the ban (the left) while skg is more politically neutral. Its just about you having more ownership with no controversial concepts. Both the right and left should vote leading to a lot more votes.

No one will remember it because it was sandwiched between the annual battlefield and cod release, and dwarfed both in gameplay. It was killed in its crib
Of course the company aggressively suing others for making the same game will be around in 100 years, dumb fuck
You are the reason AAA must fail

>>509078766
>The real enemy always was casualization and it peaked with mobile, that is now crashing and burning - good riddance.
>WOKE still kicking but soon to die too
Why do you think multiplayer affected singleplayer games in the slightest? Because they didn't. Both exist and both are booming, you are fighting windmills. After woke dies, we are again at a good timeline.

>>509078915
Just buy the Syria map and your aircraft of choice, and you can practice bombing Northern israel all you want!

>>509078935
Your post is brimming with intelligence. You deserve the authoritarian sandnigger-dick sucking country you live in.

>>509078850
That's not how it works.
When people see the faggot petition their eyes water and think "muh poor faggot victims", when they see the videogames petition they think "it doesn't concern me and people shouldn't waste their time playing anyway".
Alas, people are fucking retarded.
>>509078945
No.
In 100 years no one will know who Taylor Swift is but they will still listen to Beethoven.
Pokemon is just better than Titanfall, it's a classic. I'm not talking about the new Pokemon games, but gen 3 and 4 definitely are.

>>509072726
This is a lie.
I checked the archives and there are zero pedo posts.
Very disappointed.

>>509079260
>Pokemon is just better tha-
okay NintendoFag. Produce a photo of every handheld device you have, starting with the GB all the way up to the switch. I bet you have em all, faggot. Even I have one

With half life being my favorite video game series along with everything connected to half life I have watched freemans mind many times

As far as game bullshit is concerned I am 100% pirate all games. That said I do not play most of the modern games because modern games are terrible. Older games are easily emulated and games like half life and most connected games can be played natively on many platforms via compiled source and game assets are easily available

I would appreciate the effort go fuck over the cancerous game companies along with the idea of you will own nothing if modern games and media were actually good and there was something worth preserving. Good luck getting governments to care about consumers against the power and influence of massive corporations

>>509074461
It would go a lot faster if people organized just a few bigger youtubers to make a brief psa call to action. Flood their comment sections with requests for this and that'll probably be a better roi than trying to get people to sign it by yourself.

>>509079660
I hate Nintendo.
I recently bought the 4 DSs just for Pokemon, I only play that on them.
Last non-Pokemon game I played was Nine Sols. I still have to beat the bosses of the last two areas, damn I'm getting too old for that shit...

>>509080080
there literately were big youtubers shilling it.
What else can you do? There is no EU wide pewdiepie. Too many cant use the same language for that to be the case.

This is the same shit as gamergate.
You speak out against the jew you get banned in other boards.

>>509080143
Cope, your gameplay loop boils down to either overlevelling and tanking everything or choosing the right element. No skill, no reactions, just pure, distilled, rock-paper-scissors.
You don't know what gameplay is, anon, and that's okay. If you think that loop is addicting, you should try gambling your life savings

>>509080696
>you should try gambling your life savings
that's why they put gambling in so many games now.

>>509080246
>There is no EU wide pewdiepie
That would be pewdiepie. guy is from Sweden.

He is the most popular in the angelosphere and on the eurosphere, sounds weird but compare how many americans you have seen talk about this and how many almans did.
By europes nature there cannot be one media popular in all of them.

I don't want the government to interfere with video games in any way. It's a very bad precedent. So I won't sign it. Thanks.

>>509070184 (OP)
you know you can just vote with your wallet right? if a game doesn't support private servers or offline play then just don't buy it

>>509080696
Games don't have to be hard to be good or fun. It's amazing how people always fail to understand this.
I enjoy hard games and I enjoy easy games. Both can be good.
I mostly play From Software games nowadays.

We are still playing rock paper scisssors after thousands of years by the way. There's a reason, try and wrap your head around that.

>>509081325
AAA is loosing a lot of money right now.
Doesn't have to do with only skg but them being terrible rn but they are hurting. Just that a couple of whales can offset 70% of the population voting with their wallets and this is the way to prevent this.

almost never but there are some classics like f zero, i heard the new helldivers is good havent played, i feel too irresponsible after 30 minutes and stop because I have other stuff to do now

the only ones i sometimes wanna play are racing, sports (baseball, hockey, football) or gta style (tho there are none anymore)

>>509081502
I never said games had to be easy or hard, you're being Jewish.
>mostly play FromSoft
Oh? Games that you have to play? with two hands?
>pseudo-intellect
Games are made to be played, and it's a conversation of preference. However, Pokemon is not, nor will ever be, gameplay-centric. It's about the characters, the puzzles, and the Pokemon.
Nice pivot, faggot

If you're an EU citizen, but not an EU resident, can you still sign?
