[EU] Stop Killing Games:
The consumer movement to stop game publishers from intentionally destroying older games with kill switches.
The goal is to reach 1 million signatures in the EU so that the european parliament will respond to the initiative that then leads to regulation that requires end-of-life plans for games to stay playable.

The guy who required a login for his game, allowing Microsoft to steal ownership from the earliest owners while he walked away a billionaire? That guy? That’s the guy talking about digital ownership?
What was that second point? I was an early buyer (before infdev) and I still have it.
The second point is if you missed the window to "migrate" your account to a microsoft account, you don't have minecraft anymore. They just completely deleted your account and you are unable to play.
This happened to me
oh that sucks. have people in that group tried contacting support to regain access to the game?
Yeah and you can't, you missed the window, tough shit.
Paid copies of the game were taken away from people for the crime of "not migrating an account when we told them to". Either because they didn't play at that time but wanted to go back, because they didn't have access to the email / didn't read the one the account is registered on, or didn't bother with it.
