There already is a set of standard government regulations on video games, it's called copyright law, trademark law and patent law, all of which cause massive problems with the continued sale, use and maintenance of software.
Movements like "stop killing games" aim to plug the gaps created by IP law without getting engaged in toppling a global conspiracy of mutually dicksucking law firms that rely on international treaties backed by unelected governments.
In that respect it is much like copyleft and aims to undermine the existing cancerous system of copyright without actually doing it.

You can look at games like "The Forest" as gaas, it received game updates regularly during its early access stage, and you could host your own servers.
There's no excuse besides utter incompetence for not allowing players to host their own servers even from indie studios.

But unironically, this could fuck up every game using Steamworks, since all indie games would be required to have non-Steamworks solution, just in case Steamworks ever shuts down. Same goes for PSN/Xbox Live on consoles. Indies would probably figure it out, but it would still be harder to make.

a business should be allowed to utilize a temporary ownership model when they sell a luxury good, for whatever reason they see fit, no matter how indie or triple A. they could simply think that when it comes time for a sequel, they should have the option to compel people to move on to the new product

if that sounds scummy or you cant imagine a scenario where you'd want this, then dont buy from businesses that refuse to give transparency roadmaps for EoL phases of their products and advocate for others to do the same, simple

the issue with SKG faggots is that they realize they cant win without forcing legislation because consumers have proven they are willing to compromise permanent ownership or offline functionality if they deem the product worthy otherwise, Nu Hitman is a PRIME example of this. Neckbeard retard Ross along with all of you faggots HATE that Nu Hitman, despite being INCREDIBLY clear about being always online and explicitly stating they have no end of life plans at this time, sold very well and continues to sell well

its insane you retards cant imagine a single good reason for this to be the case

perhaps they want to compel consumers to move on to the sequel

perhaps investors would only put down their money to make the game if the developer went with an always online model in order to curb piracy (doesnt matter if they are right in thinking this, its their business motherfucker, they could choose to invest only if the whole office wore bowties, its their choice)

Nu Hitman could have only been made because they promised investors the game would have the model it does

which allows the game to be made

then company is upfront with their intentions and people still buy it and are happy

what the fuck is your right to disrupt this? that exchange was mutually beneficial. just dont buy it if you dont like it you retard

if there were not upfront about that, we currently already have laws in place to litigate when companies are deceptive with what they've sold you. if you are one of the 5 people incensed about the crew 1 going offline, and ross is correct that legally they needed to give more notice before shutting the product down, then get a class action together you dummy

Back in the day someone would've made a flash game on newgrounds about it by now.

most products are very pretty upfront about this stuff or give a fair warning before the service is shut down, the crew 1 is pretty anomalous, and if they have fouled by deceiving consumers as ross says, by not giving due notice to their shut down, then we already have ways of litigating this

now on the flipside, you have products like nu hitman which have been VERY upfront about their always online nature and with their future plans. no dissecting 30 page terms required for this understanding, yet people are still buying it. You gotta contend with this

i agree that consumers can be retards but thats why, if there is some base level of transparency which id argue most of these products have, then the onus is now on the more informed consumers to spread the word.

i will always advocate for a base level of transparency combined with consumer awareness

legislation or legally compelling ANYTHING especially for a luxury good, should always be a last resort

Corpos will always use the most exploitative tactics on the morons it works on making it shittier for everyone else who still wants to participate. It's easier to force one bad actor to change than socially engineer entire society to be some lolbert perfectly rational and informed new man.

Shut the fuck about much luxury good, it changes nothing, product is a product and people should be able to freely participate in the society and not have to swear off common past times to live off gruel under a bridge because everything than bare minimum to survival is "luxury"

I don't get why you're fine with megacorps using government on you but you using government on corpos is last resort only?

Good! So if The Crew is pretty anomalous, you don't have any reason to be this worked up about something that won't result in a major change!

The only reason they can do this is because of laws that permit them to pursue legal action against people attempting to continue their services once they become abandonware.
It is a net good to society for creative work to be theoretically available in perpetuity if there exists someone who wants to preserve, maintain and distribute it, and this good far outweighs the benefit to society that would be gained from allowing individuals to have unilateral control over the destruction of creative work.

This really only functions once and will immediately become invalid if their incentives change, such as is the case when the company is acquired or merged with another.
