but the EU can propose a legal obligation to force all platforms to require digital IDs for "safety reasons"

Reminder, piracy is moral if people in charge of studios can disable the game forever

Básicamente han dicho esto.
🚨🇪🇺 La Comisión Europea responde oficialmente a Stop Killing Games
❌ No sé propondrá, por ahora, una ley que obligue a los videojuegos a ser jugables para siempre tras el fin de su soporte, alegan problemas con las propiedades intelectuales.
✅ Pero trabajarán con la industria y asociaciones de consumidores para establecer un código de conducta sobre el "fin de vida" de los videojuegos y para reforzar la protección de los consumidores.

Step 1. Introduce censorship laws to make platforms "protect kids"
Step 2. Ban kids
Step 3. Leave adults with heavily censored, neutered, state-controlled platforms

Niestety, milion i 400 tysięcy podpisów nie wystarcza, by przekonać decydentów z Komisji Europejskiej (na siłę z dużej), by wprowadzić jakieś legislacyjne prawa konsumenckie w branży gier.
Zwyczajnie - mają graczy w dupie. Słomkę na papierową zamienić - to jasne, że tak, koreczek przytwierdzić do butelki - ooo, to robota dla nich. Zdecydować za Ciebie czy chcesz mieszanki kulturowej - no pewnie, chłopie nawet Cię nie zapytają.
Ale 1400000 podpisów w petycji w całej UE w celu zadbania o prawa konsumenckie???
"Panie, a po co to komu, toż to przy tym posiedzieć i popracować trzeba, tego my nie chcemy."
Na szczęście ta decyzja nie blokuje SKG, a Europralament może wywierać presję. Czy tak zrobi? Nie wiem, jednak większość europarlamentarzystów jest po stronie konsumenta.
Więc to nie jest temat pogrzebany, a zepchnięty na dłuższą drogę legislacyjną.
Zawód jednak jest.
I niebawem będzie też rant.
Video games providers must treat consumers fairly.
Under EU consumer law consumers must be informed about the duration and conditions of a video game’s lifespan.
If the supply is stopped earlier than the contract states, players should be reimbursed.
ALT The image is a shot from a video game, featuring a sleek, modern sports car driving through a neon-lit cityscape at night. The scene has a futuristic and energetic vibe, with glitch-style text that reads ‘GAME NOT OVER’ overlaying the scene. The presence of a green progress bar at the top. There is a European Commission logo at the bottom left corner.
Community note
The EU Commission decided against new legislation requiring video games to remain playable after publishers end commercial support, instead enforcing existing consumer laws on disclosing service duration and providing refunds for early termination. ec.europa.eu/commission/pre… citizens-initiative.europa.eu/stop-destroyin…

¿Qué "protección para el consumidor" existe en un producto de 60-70€ que dejará se poder usarse cuando a la desarrolladora le venga en gana?

The EU just rejected proper rules to keep games playable after support ends. Voluntary guidelines instead.
This is disappointing. If I buy a game, I should own it and be able to play it for as long as I want — not lose access when the company decides to kill it.
Emulation and preservation are going to matter more than ever. We should actually keep what we purchase.
Bad news, The European Commission has responded to the “Stop Destroying Videogames” initiative and decided not to make new laws about games becoming unplayable after support ends.
Apparently those sneaky meetings with Ubisoft CEO and other companies did their job.
Instead, it plans to bring together consumer groups and the video game industry to discuss better end-of-life practices and possibly create voluntary guidelines.
The Stop Killing Games campaign said this was the outcome it expected. It is now shifting its efforts to the European Parliament, where it hopes to add protections for players through the upcoming Digital Fairness Act.

So the EU for once had a chance to do something good. But instead chooses to just ignore the citizens and the initiative.
But they keep going on about how impotent citizens initiatives and public involvement is, we are just not suppose to actually want to change anything
Today, the @EU_Commission replied to the European Citizens Initiative "Stop Destroying Videogames".
New legislation will not be proposed, but exchanges will be initiated with consumers & industry to improve the management of videogames' end-of-life.

El gobierno propone simultáneamente:
1. Que toda tu actividad online quede asociada a tu rut
2. Crear un registro de vandalos que no requiere investigación penal y que te quita derechos sociales.
Y si el día de mañana hablar mal del gobierno se vuelve un acto "vandalico"?

Just so you know, Ubi freaking Soft held a closed doors meeting with the Commission before reaching to this conclusion.

No me agrada(ba) la piratería, e incluso la evito por decisión propia.
Pero que se jodan los entes de poder que actúan con mala fe o desinterés por la gente.
El pueblo hablo y lo que se obtuvo fue un "no" mientras se reunían en privado con quienes atentan contra los consumidores.
Muy bien si así lo quieren, QUE COMIENCE LA SEGUNDA ERA DE LA PIRATERÍA.
A ver quien dura más

Espero que Stop Killing Games pueda seguir adelante con lo que planean en la UE y EE. UU., pero las instituciones nos volvieron a fallar hoy, y no merecen ningún apoyo, voto o consideración.
Ojalá que no sea un precedente negativo, pero es decepcionante de todos modos.

The EU Commission has basically given publishers a pass to continue exploiting customers for now. 1,3 million people demand highly necessary change and they respond with: "Yeah, nah..."
The statement of the EU Commission is the feared disappointment. Still arguing things that have been refuted by @StopKilingGames. Feels like they are playing dumb and wasting time, hoping that the false claims stick. This is not the end, though.

Despite gathering 1.3 million signatures, the EU Comission has DECLINED the legislation proposed by the Stop Killing Games campaign.
This is not the end though, as SKG is still seeking to amend it into the Digital Fairness Act through the European Parliament.
Here's to hope.
