"We got together with Ross Scott of Accursed Farms to discuss the Stop Killing Games initiative that he is presently spearheading. The Stop Killing Games initiative aims to preserve games in a reasonably playable state even after the game's publishers and/or developers abandon it, helping ensure consumers keep some level of what they have paid for rather than having all access revoked and the game destroyed."

Green WizardSo funny to see people complain about SKG popping up everywhere, "oh, that thing about consumers rights and videogames. Don't really care I wanna see cat memes." Just a simple scroll and it's out of site, but instead they complain people want better rights? Boggles my mind.
Lol it is amazing to see how Thor's idiocy ended up helping the stop killing games initiative.
It is unfortunate that the resurgence is likely too little too late
lime!idk, the conversion therapy ban got half a million in a week. consumer rights is less interesting but 100k a week seems doable
At least post with the link.

Sorry, added.
Still 375,000 to go.
I remember bringing this up on r/games years ago
In typical reddit fashion, it got downvoted into oblivion
I remember seeing people get downvoted for it too and apologists were like "acktually you pay for and own the license to play the game, not the game itself"
So many bad actors on reddit, I blame my own naivete for not realizing that so many accounts are being run by employees of major companies sent to defend the company's interests.
It took me way too long to realize that the mods for game's subreddit that I play way too much are actually the devs for the game
They were always extremely critical of any suggestions for improving the game that were actually genuinely good constructive suggestions
I thought they were just being a-holes, turns out they weren't just a-holes
