  • It may be true that it may not actually happen. However:

    • I have elaborated on monetization in another long comment.
    • it cannot be wrong to have monetary interest in your product.
    • A law (which is the goal afaik) needs to account for unlikely scenarios, thats why its usually so hard to make new ones

    I am not against leaving games playable, but the fact that people like the game means that the devs did a good job and their fate needs to be accounted for. Devs who make good games are not an enemy



  • This still doesn’t cover for the abuse of studios which is the main concern here, after all making games harder to kill off shouldn’t come with making the production or maintenance more risky or significantly mor expensive. A malicious party trying to kill a game because they dont like it or part of the community is still a valid motive.

    Regarding your Question, minecraft servers are a good example of this: there are many servers out there which monetise in game resources or grind shorteners for real world money. I dont think that it is a stretch to say that a non sandbox game could be adjusted to work in such fashion. Also the point is not that there are other options, but that someone may easily make money with stuff the dont own and have never contributed to in its making.

    At the end of the day all of us still want new games to be made. Therefore we need to accept that the people making them need to be able to have a steady income doing their job. Monetising ones own creation is, and should be, well within your rights. Even if some of us dont like it providing a platform in form of a game, as a service / with ever fresh content can be a valid value proposition and there are many studios out there doing this successfully while being well respected, think of Deep rock galactic or path of exile.




  • I’d argue that the reason this is so bad in other languages is because of horrible default implementations. Look at tostring in java, getting a somewhat printable object would be easy if the default implementation would use reflection or sth to print the object, but instead it prints hash gibberish no one cares about.






  • I dont fucking care, You literally argued FOR my point:

    Yeah those stupid migrants risked EVERYTHING to come here and live and ghetto’s and push weed. Reality is, they arent allowed to work, and even if they have a job, only german last names get flats in german neighborhoods. And there is actual law which allows racism in that regard.

    Where Exactly is this shared culture i was saying des NOT exist ? Where is it? I was making a point, You twisted it because you are apparently unable to read. And how exactly does you insulting other people change any of that? You are just an extremist who likes to complain, and yell at people but actually has no idea what to do, because that’s exactly what you did in all your comments. Fuck off,you may be right about some of the problems but idiots like you are certainly not going to change any of that.
