    Guy who is the director of strategy for a publisher that only has thus far worked on a live-service game:

    guys pleaaase don’t regulate live-service boowomp
    we need a totally-deregulated industry for uhh innovation and stuff boowomp
    do you want politicians telling you what games to play boowomp
    this will kill the cash flow boowomp
    what if people do sabotage to accelerate end-of-life to get private servers boowomp
    please do not consider whether or not this is more likely or better than a studio just killing their own servers and litigating against people who try to preserve the game boowomp
    its totally unsustainable to have right-to-repair erm uh emulation uuuuuhhhhh sorry post-end-of-life preservation boowomp
    it’s disrespectful to holy IP praise be boowomp
    you had the game for ten years already boowomp
    who really cares about art preservation anyways boowomp
    this is tyranny boowomp

      Reminds me of how one of the dudes on Extra Credits channel was a consultant for like DLC and microtransactions and the channel kept making arguments why they're not inherently bad.

        as I said last night arriving at a vehement pro-union anti-regulation position is almost the platonic ideal of Labor Aristocracy wowee
