#StopPayingGames

there is a pretty small game owned by microsoft that allows you to do that

Did Steam shut down games people bought?

We were barely 1.3 million that bothered to sign a petition, and you want to convince a meaningful amount of people to give up games from 95% of publishers? Good luck lol.

I figure this battle is lost so I started hoarding and archiving everything i come across that works/can work offline

Why ESL is bad ? They don't make any games. They just do esports that promote gaming.

Why Sega is bad ? What did Bandai Namco ?

Only one Chinese company but no explicitly Tencent who owns Supercell and have 1/3 Epic Games, 1/3 Ubisoft it is just it's brand name Level Infinite that means nothing.

No Scopely who owns Monopoly Go that alone makes $200M per month on gambling.

Any mobile gambling companies with micro transactions that are in fact casinos should be there instead of companies that just make AAA flops.

When you buy software on a DVD, you own the software, at least until you install it and agree to the clickwrap agreement that revokes your ownership.

In the olden days, we installed software by copying it off floppy disks onto our hard drives. There was no clickwrap agreement, because there was no installer. We owned that software.

GOG advertises that purchasers own the software they buy. https://www.gog.com/en/news/welcome_to_gog

Lots of open source software can be owned. You have to do something that grants you ownership in the first place, like buying it on a disc. Downloading it for free might or might not, I don't know. But no FOSS license I know of has any clause that revokes ownership. The GPLv2 has a specific clause that says

You are not required to accept this License

so you can always choose to reject the whole GPL, and revert back to the implicit rules of commerce, "Pay money, receive thing" which confers ownership.

The closest I can think is turning CS:GO into CS:GO 2 and not making a separate game.
