As much as I hate this groomer, he's right. It'll cause games to be released not just a indefinite license, but as a timed license, or worse, each individual game comes with a subscription that ticks by the hour. Enjoy buying games that don't have a variable shelf life, but instead you're now buying a new Monster Hunter every year that is marginally different than the previous, because there's never an incentive for investors to put more effort into a product. You will literally turn every game into COD and FIFA, and the ones that don't follow this model will outright get banned. Germany already banned 40% of the steam store for old games that don't have a functioning developer or niche games.

They're not retarded at all, they're advocating for their own interests, which are opposed to player's interests.
For them the ability to quite literally steal someone's money is the most enticing they can get, just imagine the thrill of someone paying for your product and then you rob them their money with no recourse just because they said hello to a female in a match or you decided to just stop hosting servers, since it became haram to have user hosted and moderated servers (because you can pull the plug and force players to switch to a newer game, and this paying you more money).

>>Oh, we will kill the server for this SP only game that you paid money for
You are dead wrong. Never in my life have I paid a single cent for a SP game that had online DRM.
>It's the always online shit that ties into fucking SP only games nowadays
Literally play better games. All the games I play are offline and practically or literally DRM free.
But let me guess, you just HAVE TO CONSOOM, right?
>Just fucking release an offline mode
You have no idea how much effort it would take to maintain multiple versions of the codebase for zero benefit. It's not a fucking exe file you can just run, and technical issues are just one part of the problem.
If EU cucks want to make a difference, they could petition for making emulation legal (without copout bullshit like muh DRM cracking), so when the but N wants to take down the Switch 2 emulator, everyone could go, "sorry, it's hosted in the EU where this is legal :^)". But they love corporations more than freedom. This entire initiative is a nothingburger that focuses on the wrong things and makes an even bigger ass out of EU cock suckers, if such a thing is even logically possible.

>reacted to "stop killing games" by saying he will actively ask his viewers to go against the movement because of some misunderstanding he had
>won't admit he's wrong on anything
Am I missing anything?

btw the entire reason he's against the initiative is he's working on his own multiplayer game, so if the initiative passes he will be forced to rework his game to be playable AFTER he decides to kill it

Can we finally call Ross a hack and a loser on this board is he still a sacred cow who has never made anything bad?

I think Ross is too nice of a guy to get into a pissing match with another e-celeb but also was kind of in a hard place because there was a pretty high risk at that time that an open call-out would completely detract from the movement. This was back when Piratesoftware was considered a "respected voice" in the gaming community by normalfags.

>>713544408
>reacted to "stop killing games" by saying he will actively ask his viewers to go against the movement because of some misunderstanding he had
>won't admit he's wrong on anything
He's like this with a lot of stuff, game doesn't even need to be released for him to shit it up as seen with Ashes of Creation

>>713544412
I don't know what game he's making, but what's so hard about making support for dedicated servers? Games had them in the 90s

>oh 4chan? yeah, so 4chan works like this. the site is basically a hacker mekka. the site uses encryption that make all the users have the same name. maybe you've heard about anonymous. the famous hacker group? yeah, thats them. so i was actually working at 4chan for a couple of years. the site admin moot, after hearing about my hacking skills, contacted me on discord where we talked for a bit, and he hired me as a security guy where my job was to keep one of the boards free from spam and remove off topic threads. my dad was one of the original oldfags, and moot actually based pedobear on him.

His personality is nothing but high confidence based on purported skill and self-made success, and having an earned place 'in the industry'. Getting hired because your dad forced someone to hire you and then telling everyone else how skilled you are for getting that job kind of undermines his whole thing. The main difference with your example is that you presumably don't base your entire life around how successful and competent you were at that restaurant job you got.

You can't sign it anyway. It's over. The petition is done. Finito. Turns out that Ross lost. Didn't even get close. Complete and utter total failure. Turns out that shutting down the servers to a live service racing game from 10 years ago isn't the existential crisis that people have on their minds. It wouldn't surprise me though if Ross keeps milking this dead horse for advertising revenue though, he pretty much has a cult at this point from people that think ubislop games are precious art that can never, ever be turned off.

To my knowledge, Stop Killing Games has provisions for the following, but Diablo 3 is a good example of why making it supportable offline would be difficult/untenable. Early days people had dumped out the client and gotten it to run without an internet connection, but a TON of the game's logic is actually run server side - spawning monsters, spawning loot, quests, world state, a huge portion of the game was completely non-functional because there was only an extremely rudimentary server emulator at the time.
Now, the problem of 'just release the server software' is that pieces that run the game, to be made as efficient and resilient as possible are probably split across a shitload of servers. A client probably only talks to one public endpoint, but that endpoint is often communicating on their internal domain to dozens of different backend services that are maybe running on purpose-made VMs, or with current games on containers that live in a generic cluster. Additionally, these services are often not game-specific, or use custom-made protocols that their other games utilize. So releasing those services for public use would compromise the architecture of other, still running games.
Then there's the storage architecture and what data about your account/characters are stored where, and the perf requirements of each type of storage - some stuff might be in redis, others maybe in a SQL database backed by spinners, backups scheduled for tape - none of this translates into a handy little exe the public could consume to run the game offline. It could be done, WoW private servers over the course of decades have apparently done quite well at replicating stuff like this, but it's a tall order in some cases, and mandating it through law is more akin to saying 'You should not make games this way anymore'

>>713545368
The initiative wouldn't be retroactive. Games like D3 that currently exist wouldn't have to change, it would just make it so future games aren't built in retarded ways like it is.

Asking current games not built with preservation in mind to be preserved is asking too much and that's why it isn't what's being asked for. Once the laws are in place companies can just make sure their new games can be preserved. Simple.

We're not talking about a service like a payment provider that is connected to something else.
We're talking about a single piece of software that is easily self contained. I don't give a shit about achievements or leaderboards or anything like that needs to communicate with a server.

There's not NG a single benefit that can't be achieved by simply letting the game die and as much as you want to say voting with your wallet doesn't work, we're seeing it in real time with game keys on switch 2 flopping.

>>713545626
>But to be real dude every time you've been involved your orbiters turn shit toxic instantly and its sets me off
The funny thing about it is that the one time Ross talked about it early on in the initative, he told people if they were doing that to cut that out, and if the guy wanted to move on from it to leave him alone. This was before Pirate made two more videos.

>>713543571
I'm pretty sure he understands the argument perfectly and purposefully misrepresenting it so he can grift future customers just like AAA corps do if his company ever takes off.

>>713543571
>to try to make seem unhinged
Heh, grammar mistake. Argument invalidated.

I just want people to be able to host their own spoofed servers without fear of legal action once companies stop supporting them.
Stuff like private WoW servers if WoW stops running, the Nintendo Network for DS, Wii, 3DS and Wii U when Nintendo stopped supporting it, and so on. I think it would be a good start towards imrpoving live service before companies are required to do anything on their end.

>>713545604
Sure, that's one of the provisions I mentioned - but mandating devs not make games that way has obvious room for intense pushback from companies who profit from making them that way. Having all that logic take place server side provides actual benefits, such as lower computational requirements on the client end, 'live updates' where stuff about the game changes without the client needing to patch, persistent characters no matter how you access the game, I'd say etc. but I don't really know of other benefits, and there's the obvious drawbacks of always online even for single player, increased architectural complexity means that weird bugs and disconnections or failures on the back end cause weird issues that can't be troubleshooted by the client, and of course the one SKG is about - what happens when the company no longer finds it profitable to run those services.
I'm definitely in support of the idea and hope the EU pushes something like it along (GDPR fucks up lots of similar things), but it presents challenges for the currently 'burgeoning' live service games market that to my knowledge don't meet proposed exception provisions and thus big players will actively push back against it.
