  • The initiative just puts all the hard work onto people who are ignorant about the topic, who then put all the work onto developers to figure out how to not go out of business while implementing whatever insane bill gets pushed. It’s dropping a nuke on a city to close down a restaurant that failed a health inspection.

    Ross seems like a naive child who expects “an easy win because politicians hate work” except there is no bill, so politicians still have to do work.

    If the goal is to save games, it fails because companies just won’t put in the overhead to make live service games if they have to make them offline available. Certainly when there is proprietary licensed technology that they legally cannot distribute that way.

    If the initiative was called “kill live service games” then it would be accurate. Either Ross is dishonest about his intentions(bad) or completely ignorant.(Really bad) I’m not even against the idea of live service games dying, but this ain’t it.
