Not sure how government regulation on corporations could hurt the consumer when this is asking for something pro-consumer.
The only people that could get hurt by this are smaller indie devs. Let's say they make a F2P game that gets it's funding from skins and they shut it down. Well they can't shut it down they have to provide all the resources and source code and other obligations. This could discourage indie devs from making a league of legends type of business model I guess

Protecting consumer rights is the opposite of shilling.

This is a complete lie, all they have to do is provide some sort of way to keep it afloat. All they'd have to do is release a binary for a consumer to set up a working server, which they already had on hand.

>there's an eu petition with over 900k signatures to eventually close animal farms
slaughter all vegans

We will witness ghouls (UK politicians) be forced to discuss video games in parliament and it will be glorious

Stop celebrating, you retards. You still need 20 fucking percent of the entire thing, and that doesn't even count the botted votes.

But they're not getting ownership over all the assets, not even the main server, it would just be a community hosted server by consumers, akin to GMOD.

I don't know how this works, but if the company were to shut down their game and give a 3rd party the right to host a server. And that 3rd party started hosting it to others, potentially even modding it and charging money from it...Or is it single player rights only, as in you can't host with the purpose of making money off of it

>>714268168
The law (if passed) won't affect existing games, only new releases. Getting update and new content does NOT make it a new release. Don't be stupid.

>>714268168
The game was released before the legislation would ever come out, so no.

>>714268168
new as in released after new laws and regulations have been ratified.

>>714266568 (OP)
As a concerned EU citizen, I feel compelled to address the "Stop Killing Games" movement and its potential anti-competitive implications for the gaming industry. This initiative could stifle innovation and limit consumer choice, ultimately harming the vibrant gaming ecosystem we all enjoy. Additionally, I believe it's important to recognize that many Europeans are grappling with more pressing issues, such as the rising cost of living. Instead of focusing on restricting gaming, we should be prioritizing solutions to these critical challenges that impact the daily lives of so many. We should also be concerned with the number of American voices involved in this movement.

Looking at the list Ross put out of games in fear of dying without any form or regulation, games like Overwatch 2, Destiny 2 and other live service games would fall under it. I know it's not retroactive, but the definition under what actually falls under it is vague.

>>714268296
The way Minecraft/GMOD servers work is essentially the way of how SKG is supposed to work, community-backed servers. More than that I dare not to say for fear of being like the mongril.

>Water is wet

>>714267171

It's not even like that, and it's not retroactive. The idea is that live service games are designed with sunsetting in mind so they can do a final patch/change and make it playable offline.

I doubt 95% of the people who hopped on this bandwagon actually know Ross' position on this.
From Ross' point of view:
>Absolute, 100% ideal scenario (unlikely)
The initiative brings about the change that was outlined, and games are actually saved.
>Next best thing (more likely)
Companies are at least forced to tell you exactly when and how they will fuck you in the ass.
>Next next best thing (most likely)
To at least remove this entire argument from the gray area, legally, so people can at least know how shitty their government is when they explicitly allow companies to fuck you in the ass.

Anon, I get it — you’ve been worrying a lot about AI-generated text lately. It’s everywhere, and the more you think about it, the more you get caught up in how it might affect everything from creativity to communication. But here’s the thing: You’re overthinking it. You’re letting this one issue take up too much of your mental energy when there’s so much more to life happening outside that screen. AI is going to do its thing, but there’s a whole world waiting for you to experience beyond the digital buzz.

What you really need right now is a break. Step away from the screen, take a walk outside, and talk to some real people. Socializing, even just for a few minutes, can do wonders for your mind. There’s something about human interaction that no algorithm can replace — those small moments of connection, the way a conversation can spark new ideas. You don’t need to solve the mysteries of AI in isolation. Go out there, get some fresh air, and remind yourself that sometimes, the best way to clear your head is by living in the moment. You’ve got this!

I am deeply concerned about the "Stop Killing Games" movement, particularly given its links to Gamergate, a controversial and divisive campaign that has been criticized for promoting harassment and misogyny within the gaming community. This movement's association with Gamergate raises serious concerns about its underlying motivations and potential impact on the industry. Rather than fostering a positive and inclusive environment, it seems to be driven by anti-competitive sentiments and a desire to stifle diverse voices and perspectives. It is crucial that we focus on addressing more pressing issues, such as the rising cost of living, and promote a gaming culture that is welcoming, respectful, and supportive of all its participants.

It is crucial that any advocacy within the gaming community is conducted transparently and ethically, without being tainted by such serious and divisive issues. Instead of focusing on baseless allegations, we should direct our efforts towards addressing more pressing concerns, such as the rising cost of living and fostering a positive, inclusive gaming environment.

I'm 38, thank you. No, every ask in SKG goes against the intellectual property laws. I like commies, they're really cute, intellectual property laws suck, but this is not a serious stab at the problem at all. Nobody owes you anything on a free market with non-tangible entertainment service.

I am deeply concerned about the "Stop Killing Games" movement, particularly given its reported links to extreme right-wing ideologies. This association is alarming and raises serious questions about the movement's underlying motivations and potential impact on the gaming community. It is crucial that we promote a gaming culture that is inclusive, respectful, and free from extremist influences. Instead of aligning with divisive and harmful ideologies, we should focus on addressing more pressing issues, such as the rising cost of living, and fostering an environment that welcomes and supports all gamers.

>>714269659
Now this is a movement I can get behind.

I don't give a shit about any of this I just think it's funny for that furry faggot nepo baby to get massively shit on for spreading his retarded take

>>714267494
EU is one of the big 3 economies (China and US are the other ones). Any time one of the three asks for something corpos bend the knee. Amerimutts ask for mor diversity, games get more diversity. Chinks ask to not shit on china, everyone sucks Xi dicks and removes all mentions of Tibet. Same goes here. EU is 1/3rd of the vidya market, you either comply or lose billions. If some small EU members clamping on lootboxes already made that practice almost disappear from AAA games, a continent wide requirement will make all game devs bend the knee universally.

Why are Europeans always pissed off about everything?

I am deeply concerned about the "Stop Killing Games" movement and its potential harm to independent game developers. This movement, with its calls to ban or restrict certain games, could have unintended consequences for small studios and indie developers who rely on a diverse range of content to reach audiences and sustain their livelihoods. Such restrictions could stifle creativity, limit opportunities for innovation, and disproportionately affect smaller developers who lack the resources of larger corporations. Instead of imposing bans, we should focus on supporting a vibrant and inclusive gaming ecosystem that allows all developers to thrive. Addressing more pressing issues, such as the rising cost of living, should be our priority, ensuring that the gaming industry remains a dynamic and supportive space for everyone involved.

Only thing the EU ever does of value is pro consumer shit like the USB-C. The big wigs will do this only because it will make them look cool with the youngins and make people actually care about that beurocratic hellhole.

You can really tell how fucking done with this Ross is in the last video

Imagine getting all the ground work for this done and starting the initiative only for it to get instantly kneecapped by some faggot retard streamer, and only 10 months down the line do other big e-celebs finally get off their asses and promote it to generate content and drama

>>714269812
My brother is a genius codemonkey game dev for a known studio on a big title and he supports it, that was all the confirmation I needed that it's good.

Unironically he didn’t play into the drama enough, internet beef gets attention that’s why people do it. I know he’s too based to think that way but having a villain is how it actually spreads as a narrative.

Assuming that you are just stupid and not a troll, If the pettition passes, they should discuss the law and made it. They then will apply different parts and disctintions and law applications that will for explanple work, or not, for different developers based in different circustances.

it's coming home lads

Alright no shill bullshit this is in good faith. What happens to console players. I’m not talking about games where you can just host a game and invite people. That’s solved. I’m talking about stuff that needs dedicated servers that can’t run on the console itself and/or potential community patches.

>>714269562
All game devs who make multiplayer games have their own local server tools to test stuff on.

This is written by some retard with no knowledge of game dev.

>>714270029
we need 1 million signatures and we have 28 days to go, in the last 3 days we made around 160k in the process of this thread we made 5k. You really think we won't go over that threshold even if they rule out some signatures??? I get being cautious but this is in the bag already

Dunno, depends of how the game works. Do you have an example?

>>714270159
someone call me gay and retarded if I'm wrong but surely you could run a server for a console game on your own server/PC that consoles that can connect to? assuming your given the tools to do so. I know you can do it on DayZ

It's over, signatures per day are going down. Might as well give up now.

I’m a single player only chad and I signed it because it makes Multiplayer games less profitable.

>Jason Hall
he's a streamer not a real dev, could be considered a hobbyist at best, he abandoned his early access game so he can stream himself playing games for 14 hours a day

if you unironically support this you deserve to die

>>714270159
The devs would need to provide a way for you to play, whether this be using some DNS solution or hosting a server next to your console, they'd just have to provide any way for you to play.

>>714269302
>The target audience is children.
No. I doubt autism games, boomer card games and porn games are targeted to children. That's just straight up false.
>Designed to waste your time
Yeah that's the whole point of entretainment.
>Devs are incompetent
No, the kind of work and black magic that is poured into most games is baffleing. Don't blame devs for shit that the suits decide like shitty release dates or fucked worked schedules.
>its mostly slop
True of all mediums. The bigger the medium the more slop there is, so its a m00t point. Literature as a whole isnt shit because Twilight exists.

See I thought about that too since you can set servers up on PC and connect to them from console for a few games. So I guess console games going forward would need to have a server browser and be required to be crossplay with PC

>>714270159
Dedicated servers designed for that console could run on PC (or support cross-platform play to begin with)

Console makers would just have to allow users to connect to said servers. They are capable of allowing games to do that, they connect to servers already. They just don't allow it due to wanting to gatekeep online via their subscriptions and worries about hacking entrypoints.

There is a reson why i shop only from GOG. That way at least the games i bought would run even if the publisher decides to go schizo greed mode.

i do not give a fuck about IP rights. you WILL give me your source code and you WILL give me your server binaries.
