Safe to say the petition was a success! Now we will have to wait and see the EU’s response to it.
Hope every gaming company out there is sweating buckets at this. This is a matter of consumer rights.
We don’t want them to sweat, we just want them to do the right thing by their customers
These two things overlap under capitalism, as doing right by your customers is only required if not doing right by your customers affects your profits.
We definitely want them to sweat.
But how many of these have worked at Blizzard?
Why would that matter? EU is generally not as shit as the US on consumer protection
It’s a jab at the Pirate Software guy, I believe.
Thanks, PirateSoftware!
If only someone could garner that much support for StopKillingGazans amirite
There’s arguably much more support for that, than stopkillinggames.
But the political opposition to stopkillinggames is far less.
The whole Gaza situation is a wasp’s nest that nobody should poke without knowing damn sure what they are doing. There are multiple big players playing chess with other people’s life there, and you could lose a lot.
But given the complexity the chance that the situation is resolved and thus something is won is very small.
Yes, it’s terrible what is happening. But unless you have a lot of resources and a big army you are not in a position to muscle all the parties involved into submission, which is what will be required at this point.
We should vote out any EU parliament member who doesn’t vote ay on that lae
Lobbying against ‘SKG’ will be massive.
As always - evey problem comes from people voting on conservative and not social-democrats or social-liberals
Every other parties are bullshit worth zero
Keep at it EU gamers!
I’ve recently gotten back into (indie) game dev and made my multiplayer game with Stop Killing Games in mind. When you connect to the game, if the server is down, you get a one-click solution to run the server locally and play single player instead.
This setup actually helped speed up development too, since now I don’t need to run both the server and client when making (most) changes :)
You’re doing gods work my dude
If only the “tax the rich” petition had such a great villain to reinvigorate interest, but I take what I can get.
I wouldn’t call it safe. The required margin is unknown and the initiative could still dip under 1 mil.
Additional signatures could still help. If you know somebody who can and hasn’t signed yet, ask them to.
