No, please don't sign if you are American. That can harm the petition with false signatures.
This is strictly ONLY for European union citizens!
Don't worry, you can still help by spreading the message among your EU friends or family members(You don't have to be a gamer to care about this or vote in this!). A lot of the exposure to this initiative is lacking when it comes to non-english speaking EU citizens. You can help there.
Hijacking.
Are you European Union Citizen? Do you like games?
Do you want to own games again? and not just "License" them? Then please join the Stop destroying Videogames Initiative.
Initiative - https://citizens-initiative.europa.eu/initiatives/details/2024/000007_en
(Only sign if you are a EU citizen!)
It's an initiative to get the European parliament to discuss the matter all together, and Iirc, it already has some members that support it. (So It's not just any ordinary petition that will go nowhere.)
We have already collected 42% of the 1 million signatures from European citizens required. But the deadline is June 2025 and if we don't get enough signatures by then, it won't be looked at by the European commission. So to at least get the matter to be discussed, please sign!
(ONLY FOR European Union citizens! No one else! Please do not sign if you aren't an EU citizen. Also No Brits! there's another initiative for the UK.)

This was one of his longest episodes on YouTube too!
Same. It was my games festival. Though it was too corporatey, it was the one delightful part of the year where I could get excited about the most insignificant and significant announcements. And how could you forget the vague, CGI trailers that always overpromised.
The hype was real.
Why don't gamescon or gamesaward feel this way?
Pay for the image generation? (Like you said it's limited and not free).
free" (ignoring the negligible electricity cost) on your home computer if you want to
Stable diffusion is alright, but it's not very accessible, you can literally put stuff together in paint.
But this AI slop has recently started getting more prevalent (after the scam altman Ghibli trend shit) and this is most definitely the chatgpt AI slop.
I just don't want to support those corporate pieces of shit anymore than I have to.
Don't you have to pay for this?
Can we not have AI slop be the normal for memes? It's not that difficult to make this.
It's not some fucking witch hunt. He's a pretentious asshole, who thinks he is better than everyone else.
And yes people can have their own opinions, but he misrepresented the goals of the petition on purpose. Then he refused to debate it with someone (who knows what the petition was actually about) on live when called out.
On top of that he deleted ross's comment, rebuking his shit opinions. How much more of dickhead can you get?

He is just a nepo libertarian shill who has no real balls or mana.

I quite enjoyed Elon getting bullied over POE2 stream.
