Statement on Stop Killing Games - VIDEOGAMES EUROPE

Jump

  • That fighting game is not online only, I bet.

    I replied to someone saying that an online only game should change their design.

  • That sounds like an online only title. I thought we were going to “change the design.”

  • That’s not “changing that” it’s keeping it online only.

  • I tried to pick the most obvious example of an online only title.

    What’s the plan with a 100 player battle royal game?

    Edit: the guy I replied to chose to quote someone saying a game is online only, and their suggestion was to change that.

    And then ya’ll come in with replies about keeping it online only, and they have 55 upvotes as of this edit.

  • Why could you turn a battle royal game into a local only split screen game for 2-4 people?

  • The collective noun for ICE members is “shitheel.”

    • The UK Stop Killing Games petition has reached 100.000 signatures

    Jump

  • They tried to kill it? Really? Like, “we must stop this from going forward!” In that way? Why would anyone attempt to stop it?

    I still think this is going to fail. But I’m not trying to stop it. I hope it succeeds.

    I also find the debate bros involved to be annoying.

  • Is that why they left “from” out of the title?

    • Video games spending by young Americans is dropping sharply, report suggests

    Jump

  • Nope. All video games are bad, overpriced etc. same with movies as tv shows.

    And we all have the right to the creative work of others. So pirate everything. That’ll fix it! /s

  • I’ll add that people assume anonymity, and look at view counts as permission. It’s a feedback loop that is new and hyper optimized to corrode society if left unchecked.

  • TikTok. I've long suspected the name of the app references the fact that we are so close to midnight.

  • Do you think the audience for these videos will find those videos funny? If so, go for it. Otherwise, it'll be totally ineffective.
