- Comment on The European Commission's answer to SKG: "The Commission considers that at this stage it cannot propose a legal obligation to keep video games playable after they stop being provided commercially." 2 days ago:
I mean that’s literally what’s asked for: Follow European sales laws by considering the game as a rental (so, monthly subscription), or provide a legally mandated end date before buying (legally considering the product as a perishable in short), or provide the means for the customer to continue to use their product (with either tools or documentation, you don’t have to keep running the servers forever).
The fact big players in the industry try to dismiss to whole thing as an overreaction by out of touch kids when they already do the work that would make them compliant as a part of game dev is more an insult than anything else.

Writing a “best by” date on the store page is too taxing for studios who don’t want to proving the protocol documentation to create a dedicated server?

Finding a custom ROM for your particular device is also a pain. So you can get a cheap phone, a recent one, or one with custom ROMs available.

I have a Chuwi Hi8, a cursed attempt at a x86 android tablet poorly pretending to also be a tabletPC. Debian runs fine on it. The only thing still not supported is automatic screen rotation. (it still took ten years to get the wifi to run with it though). So if it’s not supported now, someone will try to fix that.
