how will EU gamers cope with losing access to ultra-popular normie games like COD and EA FC because of Stop Killing Games?
I know you guys don't like them but these represent the peak of their respective genres and nobody else can compete.

Just let us run our own servers. COD4 did it. Don't tell me we can't do it again.

>companies will pull out of a region with a population of a billion and tons of disposable income because they can no longer conduct digital planned obsolescence
even the dumbest beancounter wouldn't think this is a big enough deal to cut them off
no matter how you slice it, this is so far into the "theoretical losses" department it just isn't worth making a fuss about if lobbying and bribery doesn't work
Because ultimately, why do companies want to kill games? To sell you a new one. Most people are already doing so. The general normalfag population is more than happy to buy 2K/FIFA #4959 after #4958, regardless of whether or not #4958 shut down.
There are other ways to squeeze people and they'll find them. If we're lucky they'll only affect retards. If not, start another initiative.

you might as well be saying "they'll be expected to make VHS tapes work on smartphones"
the software was designed for consumer hardware at the time, you're being disingenuous to suggest any consumer protection law would even consider going beyond that

You gotta love the bullshit arguments that keep coming out that can either be countered with "No reasonable person is asking for that", "It was possible in the past" and "The EU market is not small and cannot be ignored".

Have you not seen the current law for usb-c?
Its literally permanent. Phones ten thousand years from now will be required to have usb-c
Obviously the reasonable person says well they will just change it to usb-f/z/etc
But what if they don't? Laws of this nature are bad news

Ten thousand years from now technology will be so advanced that it'll cost them negative money to keep cod19 servers running

This doesn't even make sense because as far as I know Activision already make their games playable via p2p, offline modes, bots etc

SKG are trying to prevent games like Destiny or The Crew from being completely unplayable because they dont have ANY sort of singeplayer/aka offline option to continue playing the game.

>he thinks laws are real
Have you even beware slightly aware of the world for the last two years? "Laws" are literally whatever the militarily and financially dominant group's emotional state at any given time, feels like enforcing. If people of power decide at any given time they don't want to follow it, it doesn't exist anymore, they are utterly unenforceable. Israel totally brought the curtain down, the masquerade is over, the pretense of a rules based order to civilisation is gone again.

Never gonna happen. EU is FAR too big of a market for any company to leave it, particularly over shit that can be literally solved with a patch cooked in a single day in 99% of cases. Only reason companies even complain about this is because they're habitual crooks, scammers and con artists and want to have the option to fuck with their customers even when there's no real benefit in it.
