@bioluminosity I've honestly got such little investment in Warlock and Titan that it wouldn't feel too bad to delete them if needed lol
But I will ALWAYS be an exo hunter
@instamixcoffee The people in here are insufferable to the point it's kinda funny
Anyone saying she ain't a guardian obviously didn't play or pay any attention
She just must not have been there is the simplest answer
1.3 MILLION PEOPLE ASKED THE EU TO STOP COMPANIES FROM DELETING GAMES THEY PAID FOR.
THE ANSWER WAS NO.
The "Stop Killing Games" initiative wanted one thing: when publishers pull the plug, don't let them remotely destroy copies people already bought.
The European Commission's official response:
- It will not require publishers to keep games playable - says forcing them would go too far
- Reason given: publishers' copyright and IP rights come first. Your purchase comes second.
- The solution: a voluntary code of conduct, developed together with the same industry that kills games
- Plus an awareness campaign reminding you of the consumer rights you supposedly already have
1.3 million signatures. Years of work. Multiple hearings.
And the part that says everything: according to the campaign, Ubisoft got a seat at a closed-door meeting with the Commission before the decision. The 1.3 million people who signed did not.
Publishers can still brick your purchase whenever they feel like it.
If buying still isn't owning, then at least now it's official.
I'll be playing Destiny 2 today, but... I wanted to share why. The unfortunate truth is... one terrible day hopefully deep into the future, Warframe will inevitably be in a similar position, and... I know that... if we too sound the alarm, that we too need to slam servers... Destiny players will come to our aid in the exact same way. I want to show corporate types today the kind of power gamers truly have. That we can band together and fly in the face of profit only decisions and corporate greed. That those types of people, in fact DO NOT represent us and further DO NOT have a clue how this industry actually works. To me... making corporations rethink these narrow sighted decisions to pump quarterly numbers in order to allow the art and the communities of these wonderful franchises to thrive, Maybe you disagree and... that's your choice but, well I can't think of a more deserving use of my time today.
