Ludwig responds.
Not really surprising, Ludwig is a total scumbag and has a history of sucking off Mald with Offbrand.
IIRC he's said before he only really cares about making the most amount of money possible; and he totally fucked over Jerma by bleeding him out of money on Offbrand, which prevented Jerma from being able to retire.
 
"Supa sekrit gigacode donut steel". Don't flatter yourself, your code isn't special, nobody's going to "steal" your gigabrained super algorithms (that you copy/pasted from SO). Stop being a petty faggot and just release the code so that people can finish whatever buggy piece of shit you've released for you.
I'll have you know my algorithms are grown in a garden (LLM) that I tend lovingly (schizophrenically prompt) with the best soil and fertilizer (emotional abuse targeted at the LLM that implicates the OpenAI legal team).
 
For some reason, UpperEcheleon has made a video trying to "defend" PirateSoftware in some weird "I've been harassed for bad opinions too guys, think about what your harassment will do to this guy" type of argument:


I don't think you deserved the late reactions. That video is only two hours old and feature tourists are being autistic. I wouldn't have stumbled on this if it weren't for your post.
 
I actually took a cursory glance at the reviews before this drama hit a feverpitch and the game was already mixed, apparently its not as good as the first one, people dislike the lack of modding support, and it still has this wierd middle ground of not really pleasing meleefags or newbies who want to get into a melee-esque game. It didnt seem like it was doing too hot in the first place
 
I fired up star wars republic commando yesterday and it worked beautifully and i was able to play multiplayer with a friend no problem. needed some tweaking but most games that old do. it came out in 2005. this is not a new thing and is 100% possible for every game and would be such a heckin wholesome slam dunk for this furry faggot if he wasn't such a contrarian nigger.
 
Asmon is like a zoo animal the fact that such a creature even exists is a sight to behold.

Hey fren, didja knew, asmon gold has a fanstastic Cage he lives in... oooh whats that ENHANCE:melchett:

Thats Night.co talent right thier

This isn't even coherent, in the same sentence this ferret killer
A) Admits that the people he claims are lying are telling the truth
B) Admits that he is actively receiving financial compensation for his involvement with the game and company in question
C) Denies having any financial investment in the company, while being paid for working at it
Just as an aside, this is apparently also what "no financial compensation from the game" looks like:

God I fucking hate ludwig. You can tell he desperately wants to run damage control and defend maldavius, but has to settle for moralfagging about muh harassment since defending maldavius now could potentially harm his squeaky-clean image. Is there a single twitch streamer who isn't a detestable grifter or some form of sexual freak? Maldavius somehow manages to be both
 
Planned obsolescence is a completely normal business model for software. In fact software as a whole would not be a viable business plan without some form or another of artificial scarcity (I notice none of you are campaigning to make piracy legal)

I've been working with software development since the 90s. The business model you're describing only exists because of the obsolescence of the hardware that software ran on. With cloud services like IaaS and the immense hardware improvements since the 2000s, it's been the opposite. The bottleneck necessitating planned obsolescence doesn't exist anymore.

Piracy is a symptom of pricing, availability, and efforts in archiving. No one pirates because they want to.

It wouldn't even be piracy if FOSS licensing was implemented at the publisher level, but that's a very complex thing the internet isn't ready for. Jaron Lanier covers this very well:

Yeah. that's fucking disgusting. The government should not be able to mandate how I code my vidyashit backend. You are a disgrace.
This is one of the most retarded things I've read in a good while.
Of course they should be able to do that. You are providing a product and its fucking reasonable to expect you to adhere to the regulations. And if the regulation says "make your product usable after you stop supporting it" then you should be expected to do that.
 
Planned obsolescence is a completely normal business model for software.
My nigger you are absolutely retarded, even stating that while distributing a software product in the EU would end your employment. The EU is increasingly targeting these practices across a multitude of software sectors.

Sale of Goods Directive (2019/771/EU)
-> Applies to all digital goods, including embedded software devices
Digital Content Directive (2019/770/EU)
-> Covers pure digital products
Upcoming "Right to Repair" Directive (2023 Proposal)
-> Expected by 2026, still in the legislative
Digital Markets Act (DMA) – In effect since 2023
-> Regulates Gatekeepers
General Product Safety Regulation (2023/988/EU)
-> Product safety rules regarding cybersecurity and software functionality

This also includes already proven attempts of planned obsolescence such as throttling performance, deliberately disabling compatibility and withholding security updates. France fined Apple for throttling iPhones via Updates before and Italy fined both Apple and Samsung for inducing obsolescence through updates. I sincerely hope you are just pretending to be a retard otherwise you are a huge risk to your company.
 
Are you just low IQ or something? You realize the entire software industry is built on the back of artificial scarcity, right? Please respond with a clear yes or a no, don't duck the question.
We not asking for a software miracle products. it boils down to we dont want our stuff taken away due to someone else having power.
In this particularly circumstance . Laws and Madates to enforce Companys not to revoke games that dont need to be.
How can Destiny 1 a game Released in 2014 Before the Crew is still playable. Because even though Bungie are Corpo Dogs that would skin me or you alive to make a buck in some aspects, They know , I and other consumers have rights to own said product. And Like the KiwiFarm. Bungie Does infact add-here to law
Here is a personal Ticket , After 1 Week of no contact i stated and Linked to My CONTRY Laws stating my Data Protection has been Infringed on.
1750994846384.webp
How can Bungie COMPLY with Data Protections Laws, but Ubisoft Cant follow consumer protection acts

Edit :Yes? No? dont duck out on me now you hear me!

Up until recently, the "viable business plan" to get people to rebuy your software was to add new features or fixes that would make people actually want to upgrade to the new version. The new way you're describing is just to turn off the software and force them to buy it. Remember when you just bought photoshop once and had it forever, and if they added something cool you'd buy the newer version? Did nobody make any money before they discovered they could destroy your software and get away with it?
