Yes.
Thankfully the EU isn't the US and the parliament isn't made of senile geriatrics, but people who either do play them, or have kids who play them and can understand why losing access to something you paid for is a bad idea.

The EU parliament has like 800 people in it from a variety of parties from a variety of countries instead of 2 parties filled with mostly old people. As a result, the average age of people being becoming elected/brought to represent the party is probably younger too.

>>737055494
The only reason why the EU is “pro-consumer” about this kind of stuff is because they’re eternally butthurt about foreign companies outselling them. When they make someone like Apple open up consumer repair rights, it’s because they’re seething that no European phone brand can compete and they have to stick it to the Americans. They would be much less pro-consumer if they actually still made shit for the global market.

>>737055570
Unironically in previous EU meetings about this there were bugs in EU ears screeching about how they *need* to swat down SKG with prejudice because uhhhhh video games turning off randomly is good actually

Some of them are present in the form of shills against the idea of legislation, I recall Ubisoft being the biggest voice for that and Ubisoft is also in the process of being found guilty for other illegal gaming practices, on top of illegally hollowing itself out into a shell company so Tencent can buy its IPs and save its management from their own actions

You don't even need that. Source code should be the last resort. A bunch of compiled exe's to run servers with should be enough, people can figure out dependencies. And what causes it is being hired by Babel Media.

I don't really care all that much because most of the stuff being preserved is the usual AAA shit that gets shut down after a month and it can't retroactively save games that are already gone.

If I make an MMO server that runs on an ASIC and I provide you the schematics, killing games says that should be illegal because I didn't make an emulator for the current year of windows desktop? I'll just ignore it and the EU and it will never pass in the US

No they didn't, because I was there and I said either is fine. Your argument is just another retarded flavor of "KEEP DA SERVAS UP FOREVA!?" but with server upkeep being replaced with software upkeep.

>>737057361
all you have to do is post the source code and that source code can build into a functional thing. it may be unfinished or broken but thats the point of open source for others to fix it for you.

>>737057408
The problem with always pushing a victim mentality is that they'll never notice when people actually are about to turn on them.

>>737057330
I'd aim for the biggest jew (you). Meanwhile if I cluster servers using non TCP/IP communication killing games says giving you the schematics and source to my proprietary setup isn't compliant, and I must build an emulator.

This will have an adverse impact on Japan's workflow and industry. They're basically excluded from all this conversation when they are gonna be impacted it the most. It's gonna be chaos.

In most cases it's even easier then that and you can safely comment out authentication checks or patch the game into the debug build at the office.
When people are working on these games, they're frequently testing them in safe pseudo-online environments. Most internal builds aren't bogged down with "CHECKING FOR SERVER CONNECTIVITY" bullshit. Its what makes Thor's arguments so fucking retarded. Even if an MMO is taken offline, all anyone is asking for is a playable, not necessary beatable, not necessarily completable, game.

Japanese are the biggest corporate bootlickers in existence because their defamation law enslaves the populace. Anyone saying anything negative about a corporation or a public figure can be sued, even if the negative thing being said is true. Which is why they do nothing but praise them.

Communism is the abolition of private ownership of capital. If the private seller/owner of the intellectual property (a type of capital) loses their right to cancel licenses, their ownership of the property is undermined. Preventing private owners of capital from properly owning their capital is indeed communism.

>>737057903
There's even developers who have been making multiplayer focused games since like 90s, way before any live-service bullshit or even mainstream household internet popularity, who now all of a sudden claim it's literally impossible to make games run locally. Whenever I see some AAA developer bitch about SKG and how there will be no more AAA live-service games, to me it sounds more like a promise of a better future than a threat.

>>737057941
>The FAQ says the "source code" must run on standard servers.
Does it? I remember Ross saying in a video that "if it's running on some exotic server architecture, just release the source code and let autists figure it out"

>>737057972
An ASIC is a custom piece of silicon and hardware. There isn't even "code" you technweenie attempting to create laws.

A standard server could be anything from Windows Server 2008 to a Linux Server distro from 2016. You can run server software on regular Windows and regular Linux too. Basically it's just saying that it should avoid being made for architecture that nobody uses which already happens with basically any modern console or PC.
That's if it actually says "standard servers" which I'm not even sure it does, surely you can provide that text?
