"They say that existing EU consumer law "already provides for important safeguards protecting the economic interests of consumers", and note that video game publishers have to inform about "the duration and the conditions for terminating the contract before the consumers signs up for the video game"."
Well that would be cool, but anything about the duration and conditions for terminating the contract i've ever read on boxes or terms of service is: " We can do whatever we like, whenever we like, just so we're clear' (im slightly paraphrasing). So it sound to me like the EC says: " Well these sellers said fuck you up front so they're immune to any responsibility". Cool, cool. I saw a digital fairness act, but maybe we can hang something up in the mandated warranty tree? So if a game shuts down in 6 months barring you from playing, you would be entitled to some form of restitution instead of hoping the dev has morals.
Still doesn't solve that corpo's have their fingers over the killbuttons on our cultural heritage existence, so, you know, there's a lot of work to do still.
Upfront? As in the UELA you get to read after opening the box, at which point you can't return the game anymore?
Its not the eu's job to protect cultural heritage. What kind of nut job comes to conclusions like this?
here is a quote from the european commision:
so stfu and don't talk about what you don't know.
Well that's a broad interpretation of a translation into a language no EU country officially speaks. So...
Dude, it's ok to be wrong sometimes, no one would judge you :) In fact, it's a sign of strength to be able to admit you're wrong, and people will like you more for it. It'll also be good for you personally as you will be more effective in more things :)
Better ?
How fragile is your ego when you have to say "nuh uh" to something so unambiguous?
also, i just wanna remind you, Ireland is an eu member state.
Out of all “internet commenters who could not admit they were wrong,” this is quite high ranking in my memory.
I will remember you, friend.
lol, at least you tried
