We're one month away. Let's do this, EUbros. Remember that ideally we need to go over the number of sigs in case some of these get thrown out later.

No background shenanigans and not the same poster so now jannies have no excuse. If they delete this thread it's provably because they just don't want /v/ to discuss SKG. In which case, spam this shit nonstop until they give up. If Dall-E threads are allowed, this is allowed too.

I think signing an initiative to stop developers from being kikes is a good thing.

>Weekend: Pizza posted, nonce was deleted and threads were allowed to continue
>Today: Monkey gore and entire threads deleted
There is something fishy going on. Hiroshmoot must've cleared a cheque

>714238216
This unironically has made the most sense to me this entire time. It being less about preserving EU games but moreso creating a universal standard seems like a really good initiative. Thanks anon

how long will this one last before it gets swarmed with monkey gore.

also why would someone have that much videos of that?

>>714238669
>This initiative isn't even certain. It's just to get EU Government to bother looking at it
>Non-EUs can't sign it
You're correct here, /vt/umor
>>EU devs won't be able to EoS a online-only game without significant heads up to potential customers
>EU devs can alternatively EoS a game without issue should they provide a feasible way for consumers to host their own servers
Incorrect here, /vt/umor. It's not "EU devs", it's anyone that wants to have their game on the EU market, which for all intents and purposes means everyone. This is similar to Europe forced gacha games to have lootbox clarity in their regions so now every game has it everywhere, or how Australia forced Steam to allow refunds so now everyone can refund games on Steam.

Mods are completely inconsistent with what rules they enforce its no wonder people fucking hate them.
When is this site going to tackle the problem of Leto and the 'Ecker supplying all known spammers and shitposters with their proxies.
Legitimately we get rid of those two and the entire site improves over night.

>>714238471 (OP)
post the links

>>714238634
Earlier today the threads were kinda overflowing.
By that I mean there were multiple threads occurring at once and people entering unrelated threads to bring up SKG.
It feels less like someone being paid off and more like people are just tired of being spammed with it.
Unironically, the same thing happened with the piratesoftware stuff.

>>714238702
Because jannies are lazy and just delete threads that get spammed with that shit. It's a thread killer. Retarded jannies don't realize that they just incentivize gore posting.

>>714238765
Too bad. This shit is important and now there's 3 threads on the SKG catalog because jannies are retarded and deleted the one we are using. This will keep happening unless they get a clue.

If necessary, delete the overflowing threads so that there's only one on the catalog. That's obviously the best thing to do. But there SHOULD be ONE in the catalog, and jannies aren't gonna force people to stay quiet about this. We're one month away from the deadline.

>>714238863
>Too bad.
Kinda, yeah. It's why the threads are being deleted from what I can tell.

it's entirely that because only the vidyabutts LARPer and their ilk have that garbage shit around their images that just paints a bigger target on them to get their threads deleted
the fact the LARPer keeps constantly avatarfagging to steal clout speaks volumes

In the last 12 hours

Jacksepticeye made a post supporting SKG

Penguinz0 made a video supporting it

So did some ordinary gamer

r/gaming pinned a thread about it (it had 47 million subscribers)

It's kind of insane how this niche topic exploded with normalfags

Alright, so if this thread lives, it does look like the jannies were only deleting the threads cause they knew it was some ban evader faggot that was using SKG as an excuse to keep spamming, which is understandable.

But obviously it was a bit confusing for the rest of us. Some transparency would have been nice there, lads.

>>714239141
The first threads were normal without the background, dont know why those were deleted

>>714238863
at this point one should be pinned and the rest pruned for containment. It's crazy how people don't know how to keep this shit from becoming another shitstorm. Or maybe that's the plan.

>>714238471 (OP)
Jannies should just pin the thread and allow discussions to centralize into that thread. Instead they're acting like a bunch of butthurt queers who forgot to dilate. God I hate the people who run this site.

We all finally have a chance to improve ONE (read: 1) thing in this god forsaken industry where a million things are wrong with it and stupid ass jannies are having a dilation session like little pussies.

I swear to god, the janny fag who keeps spamming CP and gore to create a pretense for thread deletion needs to be quartered and hanged.

The first part is true but the latter part isn't. It's better to sign it so when, inevitably, nothing happens, people grow even more jaded and cynical which helps hasten the collapse of these decrepit bureaucracy states, kind of like the Soviet Union or the Ming dynasty. In fact it'd be best to spam initiatives like this for all sorts of basic easy things, just to force the bureaucrats to openly ignore them.

>this much support in so little time
What is the probability that most of these signatures are fraudulent and this whole initiative ends up getting thrown out at the finish line for that very reason? I'm a bit worried how fast things are going.

A week ago, I was annoyed at the faggots saying that the literal who Pirate Software was responsible for killing the movement, which was such obvious bullshit it was hilarious. Ross himself obviously did not do a good enough job at promoting the campaign.

I will, however, concede that it seems like this movement is gonna succeed off of the back of this whole e-celeb drama, which is funny. Guess e-celebs and kiwitroons were finally good for one thing. The only way this shit could be promoted properly is if it was to make fun of some fatass. Weird how the world works. We need to have someone to hate to not shoot ourselves in the foot. This is probably a similar logic as to why I see so many AI shills on /v/. They're more worried about annoying the trannies than saving vidya from slopfication. In other words, we need some tranny to become a big AI fan for /v/ to get better about the AI jew question.

>>714240208
Even after the Penguinz0 video I thought it probably wasn't going to succeed but now that it's being talked about on mainstream EU news in pretty much certain it will

Commies get the fuck out

IMPORTANT POST

Just incase you get swayed by mouthbreathing retards who seemingly can't read in any capacity.

THIS BILL IS NOT FORCING DEVS TO SUPPORT A GAME FOREVER.
It is clearly asking that when devs decide to pull the plug on online services they:

A. Provide a set of server tools for people to run their own servers and be able to connect to servers.
B: Leave the game in a state where it can be played offline without a reliance on the online servers.

That is literally it. No, it's not asking devs to support the game forever. Only corpo bootlicker shills are thinking that.

>>714239358
that would actually be epic

>>714239062
I don’t like big corpo, but I like sweeping, open-ended government regulation even less. So I am against this silly shit on principle

People don’t even know what they’re voting for. The whole discourse has devolved into eceleb drama

>>714240237
I think the one where he's with the minor he groomed and fucked would be funnier.

>>714240084
Tbf Pirate would've succeeded if Ross hadn't addressed it last week. Which is on Ross to be sure, but it was pretty touch and go.

>>714239168

>Show people the real odds of all lootboxes

Your "muh ebul gubnment should stay out" narrative has been entirely dismantled by now. It's obviously on a case by case basis. And this is another case where they are to our benefit. Also, if you're a mutt, which you likely are cause only you would give a shit about this sort of talk, the fuck do you care?

The reason you have a PC and not cardboard connected with cables and tape is because of government regulations preventing companies from shitting on a plate and selling it to you. They have to hold up to a certain standard that currently is very low for videogames.

How do you know... unless you are coordinating with them!

>>714240489
I have never refunded a game, and never will. That’s not even a good comparison, though, since it was targeting a very tiny group (game distribution platforms) instead of literally all video game developers of all sizes.

Over here in Portugal you need to sign with your ID and a bunch of personal information that basically makes it so that it's very hard to get away with it.

But apparently in countries like Germany and, notably, Finland (with their 308.66% vote, where apparently literally over 1 in 200 people from the country have voted for this), all you need is easy information like a name and address, which could in theory let you just spoof your neighbours.

I am a bit worried about that.

Huh, I wonder how this is going to pan out in practice. I never liked Apple's walled garden approach and as such never purchased any iPhone. If this means I would have some real freedom in terms of what software I install and where I get it then I might actually consider getting an iPhone when I upgrade. Do you have to jump through any hoops if you want to write your own apps, even if you don't intend to publish them? My current phone is 6-7 years old, I should probably get a new one before it breaks down on me.

The petition could result in nothing, but having threads about it on /v/ for a month and spending like 5 minutes signing a petition online is a very worthy cost for a relatively high (Let's say at least 30% chance) of changing the industry for the better.
The fact is the European Union loves easy wins like these that let them be pro-consumer. It's a very easy way for them to finally be seen as the good guys on SOMETHING.

>The code has been released under the GPL license for the following titles: Command & Conquer, C&C: Red Alert, C&C: Renegade, and C&C: Generals. With the release of the code, the company encourages the fans to create content and support the games, keeping them playable for future generations. You can find the code for the projects on EA's GitHub.
>Another novelty is the highly anticipated Steam Workshop Support that will be available for C&C Renegade, C&C Generals & Zero Hour, C&C 3 Tiberium Wars and Kane's Wrath, C&C Red Alert 3 & Uprising, and C&C 4 Tiberian Twilight. EA has also updated all the Mission Editor and World Builder tools, which allows for publishing maps directly to the Steam Workshop. Apart from this, the company has added another update, which had been "another wish from the community for almost 15 years": the launch of a C&C Modding Support pack. It contains the source Xml, Schema, Script, Shader and Map files for all the games that use the SAGE engine.

Luxembourg has 0.26% signatures per capita. That's higher than Poland.

>>714239664
where do I see how much each country has signed like in picrel?
>Bulgaria 68%
unfortunately the locals don't understand that even singleplayer games rely on a server as a form of DRM and having it means you can't just go to zamunda and pirate that shit, I suppose if you convince them that it'll make cracking games easier they might sign.

>>714241869
It's not an indie game. PirateSoftware's publishing company, which he is the director and co-founder of, is publishing it. It's not an indie game. It's also a live service game.

I think the whole “all games must be playable forever” thing is too broad to be enforceable. At most I can see this adding a few lines to EULAs about service dates and that’s it. So nothing will change.

>>714242124
I'm genuinely curious by what you're trying to imply with this. What do you think this means?

>>714242329
I think you're incapable of reading and should kill yourself.

Who are you quoting? that's not what the initiative is about.

>>714239479
Ross did say in one of the first videos that the movement was gonna happen in spurts, but it didn't realize it was gonna be this ridiculous. I thought for sure a few months ago that the movement was dead on the water. I was regretting having bothered convincing my friends to vote on it.

>>714242443
I'll ask you this
Why would you regret trying? even should it fail, the time spent on it would not have been wasted, what little time you have spent

>>714242429
Is that not the ideal outcome? Note that that isn’t the same as “devs must support the game forever”. I’m not as dumb as Thor is,

>>714242493
Lets not stop at 1m as they might throw some out

>>714242476
but its an american that created all this

>>714241295
Finland has a lot of terminally online English speakers who knew of this because they followed English content creators, plus content creators there supported it. It's possible there's fake signatures but I don't predict it to be more than 10%, if it gets to 1.2 or 1.3m it should pass.
Signatures have always come as a result of interest in the campaign, either at the start, and now after RoachSoftware got exposed and a lot of dramatubers jumped on it, and recently big creators like PewDiePie and Jacksepticeye. My own country is like this, was below threshold for a long time but passed like 3 days after recent events, and where I live requires an ID number.

Nice tautology

>>714242329
Fellow pro killing games supporter here. Technically SKG doesn't push for that. They're only trying to enforce some restrictions on the IP owner's rights to arbitrarily destroy copies of games.

SKG is still in the wrong because any restriction on private property rights is communism. Ownership rights include the right to destroy and must be respected.

>>714242667

If I make a wooden chair, and sell it to you, then its not my wooden chair anymore, its yours.

Corporations don't have any rights to the games they sell to europeans.

SKG is one step in the right direction, and the next step would be to revoke all this fake ownership corporations have over europeans.

Jews like you will be hanged.

>>714242652
Precisely. The realistic expectation (if anything comes of this at all) is that the EU dribbles out some weak regulation regarding license agreements and companies comply in the barest minimum way possible.

The second you sell your product is when that right of yours should end. If you feel your right to destroy something is so important, make a non-commercial game or fuck off.

>>714242814
I'm on your side moron, I'm just trying to make the actual arguments as to why SKG is wrong instead of lying and misrepresenting SKG like you are. If you haven't noticed, misrepresenting SKG hasn't been working so great after a certain eceleb drama event.

>>714242838
A game is not a wooden chair. A game is a service.
>>714242870
Games are not products, games are services.

>>714242940
Gyms sell a service, Games started as selling a product then morphed into the legal grey area of selling licenses while still persisting with the vocabulary and appearances of purchasing a product.

>>714242940
gym membership is explicitly a subscription-based service

>>714243007
If Valve takes a game off the store, anyone who previously purchased it will still have access to it.

>>714242979
Steam is pure online DRM, therefore it should get banned in EU.

There is not a single console that does what Valve is doing.

Steam-slop should get banned in EU.

>>714243421
and? how does that deny the fact offline mode exists thanks to EU regulations? Back in the golden age of Steam, you couldn't access your games if you were in Offline-mode. Why? Because you just couldn't, you needed to go online until the game loads before you could go offline.

Europe changed that.

Europe is winning the culture war, you could shit and piss your pants about Steam for 50 years, and yet you won't change shit.

Closing the door doesn't make the fire outside go away. Surely you understand this right?
>physical means ownership means refund
If ownership means refund then Steam is ownership.

SKG infringes on private property rights. Games are intellectual property (IP). Intellectual property is not sold as a product, it is a service that is accessed by licenses, which can be sold as a product. When a license has its access revoked, the ownership of the license is not affected. Therefore, the property rights of the consumer is not infringed. However, if restrictions are placed on the IP owner's ability to control access to their property, then their property rights are infringed.

>>714244060
did you know that a fine doesn't just happen and then the government says "okay, it's fine now :)"

Of course it was retarded. The UK can't change who their neighbours and primary trade partners are. Neither can you make UK consumers prefer cars by Tata Motors instead of Vauxhall. Many regulations which the EU will implement will also be implemented by the UK just to keep trade barriers and costs of doing business down. Except now the UK just has no ability to partake in negotiating them.

Weird that the EU doesn't ban LGBT, but embraces brainwashing children, so that they cut their genitals off.

This is mental retardation. Steam does have DRM, yes, but its to the developer's discretion if they want to use it. Some just release their game as is on steam without any crap - meaning you can just launch the .exe without an problems, even copy the game, paste it onto a flash drive so you can play it on the go without any issue. It's all up to the developer if they want supplemental DRM implemented. Again, this entire movement isn't as complex or demanding as some retarded ass game dev shills are leading you to think. The motherfuckers just don't want to do the bare minimum work to facilitate their game to function past its end of life, because they want you to still stay subscribed to their services as big publisher see you as potential revenue to sell MTX, DLC, etc; or so past game doesn't compete with future product.

This is just telling devs that if they add extra DRM they should go through the wrapper, it isn't recommending any

>>714244991
>blatant strawman

I made a post in this thread that I regret making after getting btfo'd. I'm so embarrassed I don't even want to link it and give it more attention... Please forget you saw that bros...

230k signatures sounds feasible, but that means theres less gamers that havent signed already
can the goal be achieved?

this board would be improved so much if there was poster IDs and I could ignore these shitposters.

It says right there, right before the quote you used.
>We suggest enhancing the value of legitimate copies of your game by using Steamworks features which won't work on non-legitimate copies (e.g. online multiplayer, achievements, leaderboards, trading cards, etc.).
WE SUGGEST using Steamworks. Period, end of line.

>See Using the Steam Wrapper with Other DRM for more information on combining the Steam DRM wrapper with other DRM or anti-tampering solutions.
This part is not being suggested by Steam. Just documentation about it in case anyone is interested.

>>714244991
What are you even trying to articulate here, do you even know what your position is? Your initial premise is that you can't play games on steam without being online - this was refuted. Your next rebuttal was DRM - this was refuted, it's optional, and is on a dev to dev basis.

>>714245068
>nooo, don't post truth about Steam
>that doesn't count
>I would have installed the spyware anyway

>>714245135
he said there would be DRM free games on Steam, THAT IS NOT TRUE. Every single game subscription REQUIRES you to install DRM spyware onto your PC.
THEREFORE THERE ARE NO DRM FREE GAMES.

There are DRM free games on itch.io and on GOG. Not on Steam.

Stop lying.

>>714244284
>the IP owner's ability to control access to their property
>their property
This is where the EU draws the line. Once you've sold a license for a product to a customer it is theirs. Because digital content is such a new thing and politicians are old retards it's being very slowly implemented, but digital content like movies, music and video games that let you make a one-time purchase to use it ad infinitum are generally being considered as legally closer to products.
There really is no real-world analogue for what SKG is trying to prevent. The closest thing really is a company coming into your home and physically destroying the product you purchased. But obviously that's not perfect because with digital content there is some degree of upkeep on the side of the seller. For many games this isn't an issue but some have online elements that companies just don't want to spend any money on maintaining nor are they willing to pay devs to make the game accessible after they take servers down.
Ultimately, SKG is trying to make it so the EU steps in and tells publishers that - as part of their development process - they need to have an end-of-life plan in place for any games which require it. Whether that means releasing server tools, making the content available offline or just not making live service games at all doesn't matter. What matters is that customers continue to have access to a functional version of the digital content they paid for.

>>714245160
By singling out the "can" and "should" you are misrepresenting what is being stated, "in combination" means they are only focused on how the drm should be implemented, not that it should be.

when business goes belly up
2.nobody is gonna drop thousands up millions upon millions lines of code so people can steal their in house code
3.even if point 2 and point 1 can be magical made real nobody is gonna maintain the emulator anyway
in short the whole thing is retarded and as usual you guys are tech illiterate and want what isnt feasible like 5 years old that want a candy but cant have it.its funny to me that you think that complaining enough will create a perfect world,an utopia that is real only in your heads

>>714245357
