Please god give me a good summary of this whole saga my brain can only handle so much poison
funny half-life video creator makes EU initiative to make it so when companies shut down games with internet components, they release the server software so people can keep playing it after the game has been shut down -> nepo baby streamer who calls himself pirate software and then puts DRM in his games throws a hissy fit and lies about the initiative because he makes money off of publishing live service games -> creator of stopkillinggames releases one last hail mary video explaining that no it won't force indie developers at gunpoint to turn their multiplayer games into singleplayer games or whatever the fuck dude was saying -> everyone kinda hates the pirate software guy for being a douchebag narcissist so the power of spite gets like 600k people to sign the initiative getting it to its goal while he throws another hissy fit on the internet lmao
