Literally how would this change anything? Nobody played the game because it’s bad. Everyone who bought it got a refund. Why would you want a law forcing them to give people a game they don’t want?
Because it would apply to games people do want
Can you give an example? Every time I ask for examples I get a list of games like Concord. A bunch of failed launches nobody has heard of.
Off the top of my head not really, but I just woke up
But there’s this magic way to learn about stuff called “looking it up” you can try! I recommend the people the post is talking about, you’re obviously really poorly informed on the topic
This is so important to you that the government must be petitioned to act but you don’t have a single example? Did you purchase Concord? Have you ever purchased a game that no longer works? Why do you think you have the right to tell the devs what they should be doing if you didn’t buy their game?
Yup, that’s exactly what I said, nailed it!
No, irrelevant anyway
Yes. Multiple, even!
Because nobody should have the ability to take a paid-for product and make it no longer work after the fact. That flat-out _shouldn’t be an options for anyone
You should really inform yourself on this topic, it’s super clear you’ve got no idea what youre on about
I’m sure there’s at least a dozen weirdos who like Concord. And if they find each other, and they want to play a game together, they should be able to do that. They paid for it, it’s their property. If they have the players for it, they should be allowed to host a server and play.
They still have what they purchased–a game client. They couldn’t host their own server when they bought the game, why should they be expected to host their own server now?
Because that’s the only way to play the game.
If I sell you a car that runs on special hydrogen fuel, and I sell the hydrogen fuel, and then I stop selling it, you should be allowed to find a new source of hydrogen fuel. The intellectual property rights should expire when the service is no longer sold, because that IP is necessary for the use of a product that has been sold.
Exactly. You sold me a car that runs on fuel you produced. You decide you’re no longer going to run the machines that produce the fuel. Do I get a copy of your machines so I can produce the fuel myself? No, those are your machines. I didn’t buy the machines that produce fuel, I bought a car. A car I still have.
