lol, lmao
Video games are already barely profitable in current year. There's no fucking way any publisher is giving up all of Europe.

>>714459216
>publishers just quit releasing games for their second biggest source of revenue
that would be america
china is first

>>714458889 (OP)
Its true though. As long as you keep purchasing licenses you're going to be fucked over a barrel. If everyone forced them to sell you a digital "product" then they'd be at your mercy legal wise

>>714458889 (OP)
Debunked. My dad works at lawyer and he says SKG is illegal and antisemitic. So it's double illegal.

>>714459032
>Be contentious consumer
>Only buy and consume new titles from European devs
>European devs get a gold rush by a market of gamers who only buy European games because they're forced to be products and not a service
>Laugh at friends who play other games when they complain about their games shutting down

It's this easy.

>>714459216
>Video games are already barely profitable in current year
Because of over inflated budgets
Just scale the productions back, indie games are already running laps around AAA

>>714459514
>Because of over inflated budgets
Oh I'm not arguing otherwise, but try telling that to the corporate fuckheads who continue to fund $300,000,000 games that are guaranteed (emphasis on GUARANTEED) to flop and need to reach as wide of an international audience as possible just to break even.

>>714458889 (OP)
But games have said for decades on them that you're buying a licence, not the actual code... They've explicitly claimed to be licences this whole time. You're free to do whatever with the disc and box if you bought one, but ownership of the software hasn't been guaranteed in any way and has been explicitly mentioned as only being a licence. How does this get past that? Not giving your channel a view btw.

>>714459032
Yet Apple dropped to its knees and did EU's bidding. Do you really think publishers can afford that?

>>714459729
>You're free to do whatever with the disc and box if you bought one,
Now imagine companies coming into your house, with no prior warning, and taking that disc away, telling you "we decided we're not profiting from this game anymore and will no longer support it, so you don't get to play it anymore, no refunds by the way" and there's nothing you can do about it.
SKG is trying to stop that specifically.

>>714459729
Just because they say it doesn't mean it is or should be true. Or if it's currently it doesn't mean it can't be changed.
>How does this get past that?
By making laws that say otherwise. If you buy a board game you have a thing that can't be taken away from you. Why should it be any different if you buy a digital version of that board game?

Yeah nah this entire initiative stinks to high heaven.

I'm glad SKG went through and pirate software's infamy blew up. I just wish the something similar happened for the melee trannies to made Hax kill himself and that Leffen guy still got away scout free.

I simply refuse to accept the terms of the license

Yep, /v/ keeps talking about how they won't fall for the Jews' scheme, but ends up falling for it.

>>714459032
ah yes I'm sure the lucrative Brazilian market will compensate the losses from not selling to the richest nations on the planet. I'm sure the cost of one month of adding post-support offline single player will make everyone drop the EU market. Yep. Totally fr no cap.

Nick won

Latest Ross video confirms my suspicions there's a big botting effort on the initiative. We'll need at least 1.5 million it seems, it's possible the actual signatures are at like 700k.

>>714459032
>live service games are infamous for doing retarded shit that ruins player trust, just so they can earn a tiny bit more money before fiscal year ends
>"surely they'll just ignore Europe and not bother"
yeah, I'm sure the investors will allow that

>>714458889 (OP)
SKG didn't win until they make the EU improve consumer protection. Most initiatives have completely failed even after getting over 1M verified signatures. The battle has just begun, it's not a time to relax.

Sounds like an anxiety attack but it's unmanly and unstoic so he won't admit it.

Plus this will hopefully get non-AAA devs to do this out of goodwill/covering their ass for the future.

You can do an offline mode easily for some smaller live service games. It's the bigger more complicated ones you'll likely have a trouble doing it with like an MMO. People who think that's just a simple server fix really show how little or no game developing experience they have.

looks like you're the one showing how little or no game developing experience you have.

your jewdar sucks

>>714465935
Yeah, people think the ECI is a referendum. It's more like a way to signal to the bureaucrats that an issue is popular enough for them to look at. They then need to decide if they want to actually spend time and political capital to address the issue.

People also think that if it does go through and gets actioned, companies will stop making live service games. They won't. They'll just add an offline single player mode against the dumbest of bots just to satisfy the EU requirements.

while Id prefer anyone could make a game and release it globally with no barriers theres also shit like gambling cute girl games that can shut down at any moment and keep all the money that is very predatory to consumers.

its a dumb way to make media

But Virtual Legality was good, it's just that the guy having a stroke really shit up his plans.

Saying "This is shit" over and over doesn't count as a "debunking"

Hey /v/.

Thor here.

I am an actual expert in this field. I have been in the games industry for 20 years.

I was the Lead of Application Security at Blizzard Entertainment, a Senior Red Team Specialist for Blizzard, have three black badges from DEF CON and my last job was hacking power plants for the United States Department of Energy. Over my career I have formed detections that have led to the banning of over 2,000,000 accounts. This is 100% my wheelhouse.

I know my shit.
Stop fighting devs.
They are your allies.

Stay Frosty kid.

Hey /v/.

Thor here.

I am an actual expert in this field. I have been in the God industry for 20000 years.

I was the Lead of Jötunn Security at Asgard Entertainment, a Senior Red Team Specialist for Odin, have three black badges from MID CON and my last job was putting Jörmungandr into the ground permanently. Over my career I have formed detections that have led to the thwarting of over 2,000,000 Loki plots. This is 100% my wheelhouse.

I know my shit.
Stop fighting Asgardians.
They are your allies.

Stay Sparky kid.

>losing millions in revenue instead of paying 100$ to 10 indians to use ai to create some broken self-hosting code

>>714468630
The funny thing is, that sel-hosting thing already exist, just that they are held in the company´s HQ or whatever. It seems people arround here are too young to remember the days when a multiplayer game client was shipped also with a server so you could host your parties.
