Stop Killing Games is a new campaign to stop developers making games unplayable

We've all been there right? You paid for a game, it required an active internet connection and a couple of years later the publisher decided they're done with it and shut it down leaving you with a broken game. Annoying.

@gamingonlinux killing games that have single player content & can totally be played offline is no problem, the problem is killing games that have a huge portion/totally online and/or we can only buy and/or download DLCs (especially if they enrich single player content) while the game servers are online, plus, it's stupid to not find old games on modern stores, that fact encourages piracy

@bargoderea @gamingonlinux yes, I hate how you can never actually 'buy' an online game, you basically get access to it for an unspecified amount of time. And you have no way to say no to unwanted changes either (besides stop playing).
