… By doubling down on Steam being a subscription service by actually telling you it was, or how Steam admitted it would basically not allow accounts to be passed through inheritance and there is only one service that says they will try, that being GOG? We literally have to fight to have libraries of old games when the generations before had no problem having libraries of their old entertainment to access, communally so even.

The article really is disingenuous. All there is that is seriously doing this is a EU petition, one that will be dead on arrival because most of the affected games sell themselves as subscription services and because shit in the EU gets done when lobbyists usually aren’t homogeneous across country lines, and for this they are. A slap warning or two, that’s about all this will accomplish.

If people moved their game collections over to GOG from Steam, and were clear that this was the reason they were doing it, that would accomplish a lot more. It’s not going to happen, just look where governments are sliding towards, it isn’t towards consumer rights and society as a whole.
