Then the game developer/publisher should choose to use another technology or be ready to replace that piece when game reaches EOL. If no game developer can use that technology, the vendor will end up loosing a lot of sales. They can then decide if more permissive license would make sense.
- jayd16 5mo agoIt's just going to push all multiplayer games to be sold as a service. The users will get used to this because they basically already are used to it for every other piece of software. There is basically zero chance that when given the choice between "structure billing as a service" vs "rewrite everything and open source it" that they will choose open source.
