    awe shit i see a future where games start having expiring dates built in : (

    I guess it’s nice to know it should stay up t’ill then, but if this gets popular devs would have to protect themselves by setting a deadline instead of letting it free. Right?

    Like instead of giving people tools to self host servers or some kind of long term support, they’d think it easier to just say the game dies then and publishers would just use that as default

      IMO (In My Opinion), that would be a good thing.

      Knowing is better than not knowing.

      It would also give devs who want to let you keep your games a way to stand out.

        Honest question here… If you’re going to put “In My Opinion” in parenthesis, why not just skip the “IMO” part and type it out right from the beginning?

        I’d like to see a seal of quality/logo on games that have guarantees in place to keep working indefinitely.
