MODERATORS
This is absolutely ridiculous.
Aside from obvious stuff like, fuck IP and you aren't entitled to customers, there's also this:
Nobody makes these games anymore.
When I was a kid I loved Mega Man Battle Network. You know when they last released one? 2008.
I also loved Mega Man Legacy, last entry was in 2000.
They don't make these anymore.
The closest we've seen is One Step From Eden and it's a fast paced combat only roguelike from an indie studio. I still bought and enjoyed it, idk maybe if a major legacy studio would make games like the ones they don't want to let people access instead of timed dopamine release triggering addiction machines designed to sell loot boxes they wouldn't have to worry so much about "piracy."
I think if copyright is going to exist you should have a requirement to make the copyrighted works available, otherwise you lose the copyright.
Copyright is supposed to be a temporary exclusive right to sell a work in order to profit from the production of the work. If you’re no longer selling it, you lose that right.
