Here's an unpopular opinion: Maldavius right about SKG, and it will make the gaming industry worse. Because we know the axiom: the more regulated the market, the worse it is for everyone—both producers and consumers. The direct path to improving product quality is REDUCING market regulations, even to the point of their absence.

This is exactly why American goods are far superior in quality to European ones. This is why American service is far better than European service. Because the market in the US is freer. And the freer the market, the better it is for everyone.

SKG, on the other hand, proposes additional regulations that will burden producers but ultimately lead to all costs being passed on to consumers.

Those who oppose absolute market freedom are shooting themselves in the foot

As a libertarian, I openly oppose this initiative because it involves market regulations, which are bad and only lead to worse outcomes. On the contrary, corporations should be given MORE freedom to manage their goods.

The free market is primarily about improving the quality of goods and services for the consumer. The consumer benefits from the absence of regulations because it grants them the power of choice. Bad corporations will go bankrupt, while good ones will thrive. The consumer only gains when corporations don't have to pass on the costs of regulations to them.

In a free market, consumers have all the leverage to remove bad actors from the market. Just DON'T BUY their products, and that's it. Don't buy bad games, buy good ones, and the makers of bad games will go bankrupt.

You don't need regulations or the state to influence corporations as long as you have money.

In a free market, the consumer has far more rights than in a regulated one because the consumer has the most important right—the right to choose.

> the corporation doesn't have any reason
The main reason is that the consumer has a choice, and if you don't serve the consumer properly, they'll simply go to your competitor, and you'll go bankrupt. That's the essence of a free market—you're not the only player, and if you don't offer the most unique or highest-quality services, you'll be replaced by another, better player. And that's why the consumer always wins.

>>714432346
>The free market is primarily about improving the quality of goods and services for the consumer.

This is idealistic and ignores the fact average consumer is braindead cattle. Remember the MW2 boycott where everybody boycotting still bought the game? Or more recently the Genshin boycotts where the people boycotting the game kept playing but "just tried to play less." Consumers are fucking retarded and need government to keep them from killing themselves.

A monopoly is physically impossible in a free market. One of the features of a free market is that, without government regulations, new players constantly emerge, creating competition. Monopolies are born from regulations that prevent new players from entering the market, as they have to navigate thousands of regulations with minimal capital.

Monopolies are IMPOSSIBLE in a free market. This is literally a fact.

new players can't emerge in a monopoly because the monopoly actively prevents them from doing so, you need regulation to stop that from happening

>>714433381
While it is correct that government regulations stifle the emergence of new competition, the claim that monopolies can't exist in a free market is disingenuous.

>>714433264
Oh, you're a russian bot

Do you understand that the American food industry was filled with borderline toxic food before Teddy instituted the FDA? I bet there were retards just like you crying about muh regulations then too.

Because in truth that's the reality, you're letting yourself being cucked twice, first by paying tax to the government and then second by letting the corpos rape you. At least with market regulation you're only raped once

Also a big reason why major companies like Valve will always get away with their absolute garbage practices like their game review process leaving major games in month long limbos waiting for a response, just to arbitrarily reject them for any reason. Valve has no incentive to improve as a service because consumers will slurp their products up regardless. Thinking with your wallet doesn't actually work in practice when nobody actually gives a shit.

Live-service games don't violate anything because they aren't your property. You're granted an indefinite (or limited) right to use them, but they don't become your possession. You're not buying ownership; you're buying access, and that access can be irrevocably revoked at any time, as you're WARNED in the user agreement.

That's the whole point of the term "games-as-a-service." If you don't like the concept of live-service games, just don't spend money on them, and that's it. What's the problem with not using something you don't like? I don't like avocados, so I don't eat them, but I'm not demanding an immediate ban on avocados or that they be made tastier FOR ME at a government level.

It's just rational that if there's a live-service game, you should decide whether to accept those terms or not.

>>714432806
>In a free market, consumers have all the leverage to remove bad actors from the market.
No they don't. The relation of companies and customers is asymmetric, because companies are big entities and customers are often many small individual buyers. An organized force will always outplay a disorganized one. It's the mechanism of people getting together and setting up new rules that makes the relationship balanced, not any myth of a free market.

We tried that. Look at where we fucking are now. Or are you going to deny the video game's industry is worse off now than it was 10 years ago, 20 years ago, in terms of quality of games.
Again, to reiterate, we fucking TRIED just not buying the slop. Guess what? It doesn't work.

>>714433719
Many regulations are completely pointless and counterproductive. They exist solely as barriers to entry for new players, and that's their only purpose.

To sell a product, a manufacturer has to jump through 100 burning hoops. A large player, who likely lobbied for these regulations, simply spends huge sums of money to comply, passing those costs onto the consumer. Meanwhile, a new player can't enter the market because these regulations aren't about product quality—they're just barriers. The new manufacturer lacks the resources to waste on complying with regulations that lead nowhere.

A good example of this is the UK meat market, where cow feces must be disposed of in a specific way using electrification, supposedly because cow feces increase CO2 levels in the atmosphere and contribute to global warming.

You can see how absurd this is and that disposing of manure through electric shocks has nothing to do with the quality of meat products. But thanks to this regulation, small farmers can't enter the market because the equipment is quite expensive.

Which would be impossible if any new player was allowed to join the market instead. The regulation is actively making sure only these companies are in business

games are one of the purest, most undeniable cases of "if you don't like it just buy something else". there's so many different games being published that it's genuinely hard to keep track. if you don't like ubisloppa and its policies there are thousands of different games to buy and play, many of which will fit even the most inane criteria you can think of

Consider all the occasions where a game had the plug pulled and then someone out there began hosting a server to let it function again. MMOs, multiplayer shooters, whatever.

>>714434190
Only argument I've seen that kind of makes sense is cheating.
So let's say somebody makes an unpopular online game, but uses some of their code for another similar, but more popular game.
You just made your new game unplayable and very easily hackable.

Where are we now? I see good games like Black Myth, Stellar Blade, and Atomic Heart thriving, while trash like Dustborn and Concord fails spectacularly.

I see users actively shaping what games will look like by spending money only on what interests them.
> Or are you going to deny the video game's industry is worse off now than it was 10 years ago, 20 years ago, in terms of quality of games.
This is exactly an example of why a free market is BETTER than a non-free one.

The quality of games started to decline sharply due to DEI investments from BlackRock, which acts as a supranational entity. This is literally an example of globalists trying to forcibly change the tastes of the free market, and the failure of these DEI initiatives proves the resilience of the free market to external interference.

Going forward, games will get better because the push to impose woke DEI nonsense has failed spectacularly. The free market has won.

You were forced to create an alternative reality where somehow society is functioning perfectly enough without any laws or government except for those pesky monopolies that keep forming. It's ridiculous which goes to show you can't formulate a credible example of how a monopoly could form without regulation.
You might as well have said something equally as ridiculous as "if there is only one person left in the world it's a monopoly without any regulation, HA I WIN!"

Chances are nothing is going to come out of this. The voting process is unironically the easiest part of the EU citizens initiative since all it does is force the EU to acknowledge the complain. The hardest part is convincing them of change with prominent legal experts and lawyers to help push the initiative into an actual law. Good luck with that while also fight back from the actual industry.

Hey, remember the time Coca Cola hired death squads to kill protesters?
This was a rational act aimed at optimizing the quality of their products. It was a mutually-agreed, freely conducted transaction between two consenting parties, and there was nothing wrong with it. Regulation would've only made things worse, believe me.

Fascists and communists should at least agree to work together to deport the scumbags who would sell out their nation for a penny. People who worship money are not human. They should not be treated like humans. They should have their citizenship revoked and turned stateless.

If they want to bitch about it, they can just buy citizenship elsewhere.

but when you critically think, all sorts of things become clear.

For example aluminum, which is officially considered a neurotoxin, in vaccines.
weird that they are sure that neurotoxins do not cause autism (brain damage)
oh wait
https://x.com/VigilantFox/status/1939747230430425130

well weird that no quack came up with this.
oh wait
what's the ingredients of that vaccine?

aluminum as well as formaldehyde

wait a moment, formaldehyde is a disinfectant

didn't these "educated" quacks scream at Trump for even suggesting to inject disinfectant because it would be a terrible idea, and very bad for health?

weird that these quacks do that all the time themselves.
seems that you should not trust these quacks, because they exposed themselves.

that's critical thinking. Of course you lack that, which is why you don't question anything.

The more that I grow up the more I realize that every system relies on rational actors.
Free market capitalism? Relies on the consumer being informed of their choices and paying for the best products, not the most convenient.
Communism? Relies on the idea of rational distribution of resources.
Monarchism? Relies on rational individual.
Fascism? Relies on rational identity within the state
Democracy? Relies on rational voters and that the majority has the correct idea.
Egoism? Relies on the idea that rational minds can come to the conclusion of the ego.
Objectvism? Relies on rational measurements of what is moral for the individual above all else.
None of these things will ever, truly work because the average person is not rational, it is a combination of these political theories that creates human society.
>Hurr durr fence sitter
This isn't about centrism as in "Everything has a good point!", it's about how every political ideology that states that it will work because of "rational populations" is huffing their own fucking farts.

and as you well know, you don't get ownership of a hundred million property for fifty bucks. you get to play a videogame under certain terms and conditions, which you are free to refuse and play one of many others.

i'm sure there are videogame developers who will happily provide extended support for a small fee - or even bake it into their base offering. i suggest buying from them instead if you find this important.

>>714431620
On the one hand, it's just an instance of competition against the corpos, like worker unions (when they're independent). Let EU try it and the rest of the world will learn by example.
On the other, I have a feeling this shit will backfire someday, or the corpos will find a way (or multiple ways) around it, fucking us over even harder in the process.
Still not getting game ownership instead of licensing, would be nice to fix that too.

you're kind of right but you're wrong for putting them all on equal ground, a single tyrant being rational is far easier to achieve than getting an entire voter base or proletariat or corpo shill force or whatever to be rational

love all the seething replies from gubbermint babies but youre still wrong since the existing system will never be a free market so the next best thing is to make vain attempts to wield the gubbermint as a hammer against the corporations who do the same thing to us, just much more effectively. And also if it even was a free market, a free market isnt good enough since you any power structure that holds a monopoly on violence will destroy any sense of free market. Purchasing power isn't enough, you need to rape and kill the people and their bloodlines for mistreating the consumer. Our ideal state of being is the stick-throwing tribe stage, btw, and complete nuclear annihilation cannot come serve as penance to all the faggots of the world soon enough.

> USA has trade deficit against EU.
Yes, because the EU is a socialist dumpster that simply doesn’t allow quality goods into its market, knowing that its subpar products can’t withstand competition. The same goes for China, for example. It’s very difficult to enter their market as a foreign resident because China tightly regulates access to its markets, which significantly impacts the quality of their products since there’s no fair competition.

American goods, on the other hand, are forced to compete with the entire world on their home market, and that’s exactly what makes American products so high-quality. If they were allowed to enter the EU and Chinese markets, their domestic producers would go bankrupt overnight.

Proper fucking communism would be to immediately confiscate all houses from anyone that owns more than 2 or 3, and then immediately put those properties up for a lotto of some sort that you have to give proof of residency in NY state to apply for. And if you get caught trying to game that system to get houses to rent like a shitter? Jail time (honestly I'd go with firing squads, but I'm extremist like that)
Instead of this "hurr durr let me just help by letting you pay 1% less rent a month". How is that a fucking solution.

Thank god for no regulation! All regulation is bad!! Should we have laws where if someone sold you something, it´s now your property and someone can't take it back? Of course not, regulation is bad according to this anon after all

There is obviously bad regulations, that curb freedom and competition, and good regulations that ensure fair play between all.

game developers must either sell a good, or a service with an expiry date. They can't keep getting away with selling services in the guise of goods, with no expiry date.


Or they can, but that must be informed in the box: "this game is a service that can be shutdown at any moment in our discretion without refunding your money"

>The direct path to improving product quality is REDUCING market regulations, even to the point of their absence.
That being your interpretation shows you are brain dead and slurp up what you hve been told without any training or research. No regulation is just as negative for all involved as over-regulation. There has to be a balance to ensure the market, producers, and consumers are all getting the highest quality out of their goods and service without stifling productivity and ingenuity.
I doubt you even realise how regulated your life and country is, but you'd notice it quick once it disappeared.

>This is exactly why American goods are far superior in quality to European ones.
This is also retarded. For starters, many "American Made" products aren't even made in America (either partially or in their entirety). Many American companies will buy all their parts overseas and assemble them in America for the "American Made" label or will manufacture a few parts but buy the rest from europe, china, india, vietnam, etc. America's quality of goods isn't that different to the rest of the largest manufacturing countries.

>trust social media influencers instead
Obviously you shouldn't trust every random schmuck on social media. However...

>don't trust the experts
This is the only sane option left. There are far too many bad actors at every level to extend trust to someone purely based on them having a stamp of approval from some institution. Possessing a degree or having worked in a field for an extended period does not guarantee competency let alone good intentions.

>at least mass market stuff like food, there's a reason americans can't export their normal food
Because it would cause massive issues at the scale America could export food leading to local farmers being unable to compete. Have you even actually looked into this issue or are you just relying on memes or random things you heard from osmosis? If America was allowed to freely export more common food products it would overwhelm most European country's native farmers and topple the entire ecosystem quickly.

If you're going to bring up the chlorine debate then it isn't even an issue and the EU itself has outright done studies showing it as no effect on anyone and would require people to eat something like 30 whole chickens in an hour or two in order to even see the slightest effect from it. You get more chlorine exposure swimming in a pool than you would eating the animals for something like six months or a year straight if I remember right.

The reason the EU shies away from allowing free flowing American poultry and beef is because of how chlorinating food implies you don't have to take care of animals as much prior to slaughter as you can just chlorinate the carcasses. This leads to an ethical issue more than a practicality issue.

no such thing as utopia and never will be. the u.s. is a total failure, actually, and one only needs to look at its' hstory to see that. constant eternal wars and religious wars and political bickering and forced race-mixing on a continent-wide scale. all that doesn't scream success to me..

> Should we have laws where if someone sold you something, it´s now your property and someone can't take it back?
You were sold a perpetual license with the condition that it could be revoked at any time. You agreed to that. And now you’re blaming the seller for selling you exactly what they promised. There’s no one to blame here but yourself.

no, the real difference is the basic difference in how concerned about citizens' health the two areas are, in the us you're on your own, while in the eu you have a powerful healtcare system that will take care of you, therefore in the us it's only your problem if you die from poison food, while in the eu it's everyone's problem if you're unhealthy, so you get treated better and pointlessly unhealthy things are either outlawed or taxed to hell

Except it's not. As I stated, the EU has no issues with importing American food, the issue is that it has to weigh that with the ethical concerns of EU citizens in terms of animal husbandry mixed with the concerns of their local farmers. Europeans are willing to pay a bit more money to ensure animal welfare in addition to national pride for certain foods. America can subsidize an enormous amount of the world's basic food needs when it comes to trade, but that comes at the cost of destroying local farmers costing hundreds of thousands of potential jobs in the process.

The EU is being pragmatic about why they don't want an influx of American food and taking multiple factors into account. They've already cleared the health concerns decades ago and the only reason the chlorinated argument is still prevalent today is because people think it's weird so it stays in the public consciousness despite being completely inconsequential.
