    It's one possible solution for one of the problems under the same umbrella. If you can't or don't want to run the servers for your online game (eg: Echo VR), just open source the server's code and let the community keep the game running.

    But even then it's astronomically unlikely to be retroactively enforced. Old games will be grandfathered in and it would apply only to future game releases.

      You don't need to open source the code to release the server binaries.

        Can I be a big time Twitch celebrity too if I doodle a series of completely nondescriptive boxes and link them with little lines in MS Paint as I talk?

        Definitely. Especially if you have large breasts.

              Not sure if it's still the case, but the code of balatro was a single giant file with if cases for every card

              Bad code can make great games. But it will also make them very hard to maintain

              It can alsoake fes that perform way worse than they have anything to. See yandere simulator for example

                In Ross' video, IIRC, he said 110% was good, 120% was pretty safe, and 140% was very safe.

                      Of course, but the point is that it isn't a factor in Thor's decision.

                        The latter works better, then you can go full Lily Tino when called out and 'attacked' for the obvious BS.

                          Sounds an awful lot like what YandereDev did when he was still relevant.

                                I've just heard so many of the same excuses for even scummier people over the years of always shifting the blame to justify whatever is necessary to get the bag. The excuses seem ever less convincing.

                                I think you're confusing 'excuse' for 'reason' here. no one is excusing his behavior, just pointing out that the reason he does it is because the system allows for this kind of behavior. we can see through the veil, but others are being hooked by it because it's designed to keep you hooked.

                                it's the same with other charismatic always online personalities. they're really good at spinning their bs and people keep eating it up because it sounds good.

                                    I know it's not going to happen, but I would love it if legislation could go as far as requiring companies to open-source their engines and servers after maybe a period of time, or on ending support for the game. It could be done ID-style where the company retains full rights of the content and trademarks, which would still require players to buy the game to legally play it.

                                    I'm aware there are a lot of cases where games include middleware that's licensed from 3rd parties that complicate preservation efforts. But if open-sourcing the code is the path taken, there's a simple solution for that: just release what you can, even if what's released is in an unplayable state without the middleware. It then becomes the responsibility of any volunteers to take that code and bring it back to a usable state however they choose.

                                    This drama highlights that there's still a great need for better computer literacy. Anyone with even a basic education in how software, source-code, and software licensing works can tell PirateSoftware is full of shit pretty much immediately. That is, anyone educated who are themselves not grifters.

                                      I watch this dude sometimes, he says he's a fulltime game dev but all I see him do is play other games. The game he works on has seen very little progress.

                                      Would be nice if he at least admits he's a streamer and not a game dev.

                                        There's people who will explain why it is done, and use it as an excuse why it is okay because that's the rules of the game. Seen it way too many times from apologists. Heck the comment I responded to went about how they give this guy credit and can't blame the guy for doing it.

                                        That goes from explanation to excuses once they started providing an opinion on the behaviour. So that no one is making excuses isn't right.
