They weren’t aware they were buying a 10 year old online game? This isn’t new either, many MMOs have dead periods after their final patch and before a new expansion. The crew didnt even die, they made the crew 2, which apparently was awful or else people wouldnt have complained.
- Comment on Th EU iniative for Stop Killing Games has reached the goal of 1 million signatures!! 2 days ago:
I think its a bit ridiculous that you think you have enough information to say they should have acted sooner.
Its also ridiculous that your arguments rely on what feels wrong.
The game was 10 years old and people are salty it went EOL. How have this many people not played an online service game before to realize that 10 years is a fantastic run, and nothing lasts forever. Move onto a new game or help build one, this effort to make games live forever is absurd, entitled, and shortsighted.

Thats not what I’m asking. You just have me evidence that they didnt sell it as soon as an EOL date was announced. Are you saying they should have stopped selling it before they publicly announce the EOL? Should they have announced and removed it as soon as the board meeting ended? How much earlier would that be in this case?

Maybe calling them 545 is an insult?

Generally with humans, I assume about 99% act in good faith, regardless of what they are arguing for. Someone could argue for genocide in good faith, for example. The last 1% are sociopaths who have some intense issue with emotions or socializing, and do awful things on purpose.
I think most of the republicans are good faith, they just have shitty ideology and problem solving skills, and dont do enough to counter their own biases.

The type of person who critically reads the bible is the type of person who stops believing in religion. Sort of a shitty paradox.

For all we know when the decision to pull the game was formalized, they pulled it that day. It depends what they did after they decided the game was being pulled. Did they leave it up for a few months to get some stuff in order beforehand, but kept selling it? I’d have a tough time accepting a reasoning from Ubisoft for that.
Thats why I asked for any sort of comment or reporting on it.

They didnt plan for it to last two weeks, the game failed. How do you expect them to guarantee a certain uptime when they have no idea if anyone will even play it.
- Comment on Th EU iniative for Stop Killing Games has reached the goal of 1 million signatures!! 4 days ago:
They didnt know it would only last two weeks. They probably knew it was a possibility but I doubt they planned for it.
This is what I mean though, if concord had to say the game would be live for a guaranteed amount of time, why wouldnt they just say something low like 6 months. Why wouldnt every company do that unless they knew for sure it would be successful? Its too risky to choose longer periods of time, and we just have the same situation as now.

If you are saying they knew it was closing and they sold it for months anyways, that sounds like fraud. Has there been proof ubisoft decided to do this anyways?

So you hate religious people, why does anyone need to hear about it?

I dont understand how such a broad requirement would work. They just have to pick some arbitrary date, and then after that they can continue as things currently are? Can you give an example of a game where this type of labelling would have helped?

Can you give some detail on the assassins creed 2 thing? I can’t find anything in a search and I’d be interested in reading about that as it might change my view.

AMD cards are so much cheaper right now, it makes a big difference. Second hand market cuts prices in half too. Places do certified refurbished as well.

I never said to take it from people. If a company makes their end of life shitty and thats impoetant to you don’t buy their shit.

Yeah thats fair. He reminds me a lot of the mountain from game of thrones, especially the fight scene with the viper. I’m not sure if CDPR meant to draw comparisons to that but it jumped out at me immediately.

I think this movement is based on feelings. It feels bad that a game died, so we should fix it. Unfortunately the real world is more complicated than that, and overly broad rules are goint to cause unintended consequences for small developers.
The art argument is nonsense, although the other extreme is too. Artists need protections so they can earn a living, but the protections currently last far too long.
Either way, nothing is stopping a company creating a game similar to any number of often referenced “dead” games, and there is nothing wrong with letting something run its course and die off, to allow room for new creativity.

Thats all a great argument for far shorter copyright lengths, sort of a pity this bill isn’t asking for that but maybe thats how it will shake out anyways.

Of course things are so simple. I like the “everyone’s art” argument as well.

Still think this is pure selfishness from players, but hey if you get a law passed then more power to you.
- Comment on What's the best way to respond to someone who says "transracial is just as valid as transgender"? 3 weeks ago:
This is absurd talk. I don’t want people generalizing me for my race or gender, and I wouldnt do it to someone else either.
You must go around treating every minority as if they are a victim of something. I’m sure they greatly appreciate your refusal to see them as an individual.
This race/gender anarchism would help trans people as the general public would stop giving a shit how people choose to behave and what they are interested in.
