this is a consumer rights movement forcing devs to not make their games intentinally retarded

i played unreal 2k4 despite epic not even selling the game anywhere anymore just fine
because that used to be the stardard

buy game, you get to keep playing game
but publishers and devs are trying to """"normalize"'"" and """"make players comfortable""""" to not actually own their games

just like it isn't legal for car manufacturers, powertools or literature to sell you a product that was ACTIVELY and INTENTIONALLY made in a way they can remote detonate your copy from use after you gave them money is retarded

SKG doesnt require devs to support games forever
that in itself is a liability because then games die even when a willing developer goes bankrupt
just make your games so you aren't dependant on their centralised servers for their product to work

if volkswagen goes bankrupt and all their cars become paperweights overnight that wouldn't be ok either

I sincerely hope something like this will happen and big publishers play chickenrace

maybe if your games arent shit and hostile to your consumers you wouldn't lose marketshare
that'll be your own fault
