Thread: Should game developers be allowed to restrict streaming?

I don't have a problem with developers saying they don't want their content streamed, but I have an issue with them saying hey if you go past this much content we'll be pursuing legal action. I mean what happens if someone isn't paying attention and they accidentally go past the limit of what's allowed?
Thread: Should game developers be allowed to restrict streaming?

it's their right. if they wanna stream for a few select people or they wanna ban some ppl for whatever reason, that's their right. I'm very anti-censorship, however it's not censorship when the one broadcasting chooses not to broadcast to some people or only to broadcast to a few people.
Thread: Should game developers be allowed to restrict streaming?

Yeah, it's their right. But many people won't buy if they can't try. Or if what they try isn't enough to get a good idea. An acquaintance bought the full Mario app. It has 3 free worlds, but apparently he was very underwhelmed with what he had to pay for... Not good. Because people talk, and now his own friends and acquaintances aren't touching it with a ten ft pole.

I certainly don't see anything wrong with it. They do hold the rights to the product, so whatever they feel is appropriate use is appropriate use. Granted, it can be really annoying to LPers who bitch that they're giving the game exposure, but exposure doesn't pay the bills. People usually just watch the LP and don't give buying the game another thought.
Thread: Should game developers be allowed to restrict streaming?

They can, however, there is still something missing in watching someone stream a game. The viewers aren't getting the full content. A lot of games have different paths the player can take. Not to mention, a lot of people rely on streamers to get a more accurate review or first impression of the game. I don't think it hurts game developers as much as they think it does. I've watched streams and decided to go out and get the game.
Thread: Should game developers be allowed to restrict streaming?

Atlus is trying to keep people from streaming Persona 5 because Atlus knows people don't want to play Persona 5. It's a tedious, grindy game where the elemental system and RNG can quickly result in getting massacred by a random encounter because you didn't already know how to counter a group of enemies or they got to act before your characters. The visual-novel mechanics, as par for a Persona game, are monotonous and demand the use of a guide in order to complete all of the social content. And the game and plot are completely linear, giving the game absolutely no replay value. Atlus is perfectly well aware that they've made a game few people actually want to pay full price for and even fewer would put up with the boring gameplay. Hence their attempt to prevent players from streaming the game. And let's face it few of the people sticking up for Atlus would have the same attitude for any other developer.
Thread: Should game developers be allowed to restrict streaming?

Anyway. I doubt it's that, there's a number of reasons they can deny streaming. I recall Dragon Quest Heroes World Tree's Woe and the Blight Below had streaming with the sound off because Koichi Sugiyama is super, super anal about people listening to his music without buying the game first. I'd honestly just say it's sales and wanting the experience to be unique, it's a dumb reason, but I'd guess that's really all it falls on, it has nothing to do with people NOT wanting to play it, lots of people were hyped for it's release as the article above shows. Japanese companies are just super weird about this shit sometimes and claim it's so people can experience it themselves. I don't agree, but I also don't really have much of an opinion when they do this weird draconian stuff.
Thread: Should game developers be allowed to restrict streaming?

Nekrosilisk88 said Came across this article on Kotaku today. Now I'm wondering, should this be allowed. There's already a debate surround copyright infringement over people posting LPs, but they've been fairly consistent about siding either for not allowing it at all, or saying it's all good. what are your thoughts on restricting streaming in this manner? Click to expand... its free advertising. hell I bought games I never would have heard of when LPers drew my attention to it.
Thread: Should game developers be allowed to restrict streaming?

Developers should be allowed to restrict streaming. It is their game after all. But why would they want to? Streamers or lets players give them free advertisement and get people interested in buying the product for themselves. I can see the fear for single player story games because some people are only interested in the story and don't want to pay to see it. But that's a risk they can choose to take.
Thread: Should game developers be allowed to restrict streaming?

My roomie is a game developer and he said one of the biggest issues with streaming is when people are making money from your game but then fuck things up by giving it a negative connotation. He pointed to folk like pewdiepie and Jontron where some parents actually shot down their suggestions after their controversies. Also there can be a weird push back when people disparage folk or make things seem easy and people get discouraged. This isn't even covering the negative streams, people who play a game poorly, give negative reviews for drama ratings or purposefully spoil certain things on purpose to dissuade others. He thinks if you're gonna pro stream at least be upfront about it and don't be cocky like someone who not too long ago sent an email saying that he made a company because he streamed their games. However it can also drum up interest in old games, keep games relevant, help jumpstart communities, and even push people in new directions and give folk ideas so all in all a double edged sword. He said depending on the EULA some companies can smack you with a cease and desist if they choose to but most just don't care so legally anyone could come after you for streaming if they have the right EULA.Which most of us don't read anyway.
Thread: Should game developers be allowed to restrict streaming?

I feel like it isn't. Video games fall into this strange area of media. All in all any developer who wishes to stop streaming feels like they are ashamed of their product or just too overly protective for all the wrong reasons. Sure, a streamer is making money off of playing your game. So? As a developer that really isn't your money to be making, so halting or regulating the streaming of your game seems petty. Wouldn't that be like an author getting pissed you read their book at the library to an audience for story time? Sure, smaller scale but the idea is the same. Furthermore, Streamers can be highly influential. Yes, sometimes in a negative way but welcome to the WORLD. EVERYTHING can receive negative press. People often seek StreamersYoutubers to get their insight on a game or just to see how the game looksplays to make a decision on if they want to buy the game or not. If people LIKE what they see, regardless of the person who is playing's opinion, they'll buy the game...or they won't because they never had the intention of doing so anyway but watched just to see what the fuss was about or just to support the Streamer. I dunno, I don't see a fault in it. Once someone buys your game it feels bizarre for the developer to start dictating exactly what you can and can't do with the item they purchased. What's next? Telling us we can't show our friends the game because it might possibly influence them to avoid buying the game? Feels too 'dictator' like to me. I feel developers should be happy people want to give their game exposure at all. People typically stream a game they LIKE which generally means good press, more interest and more potential sales. It's really only 'review' videos that tend to start spewing the negative stuff. Streamers will move on from a bad game without much of a fuss because their incomeaudience retention banks on them having something people WANT to watch them play. At most I'd imagine streamers might riff on a game for a short time and just move on to something else.
Thread: Should game developers be allowed to restrict streaming?

Just going to throw in my two cents here, skimmed over a lot of things that were brought up. Concerning Persona 5 and Atlus their case is much more understandable in my opinion, their game, while their gameplay is very copy and paste from their prior games, is a JRPG in the classic style and derives much of it's popularity in the series for it's Story. Atlus acting to keep players from streaming beyond a certain point is understandable for the preservation of their art and their ability to continue making that art. Is it against the law for them to do so, no. Is it against the law to enforce it, technically no, since they can claim to have the video taken down for using their Animated clips that have not been publicly released. Personally speaking, when I am looking into buying a popular game, I look at several streamers and YouTubers, from TotalBiscuit, Super Best Friends, Angry Joe, Achievement Hunter and anyone else that may be taking part in the game to see if it's something that I would enjoy or have fun playing, looking primarily for solo play or trying in public lobbies. Most of these give me a very good idea as to if I would be interested in the game, and if I would enjoy it for a longer period of time.
Thread: Should game developers be allowed to restrict streaming?

Devs can do whatever they want with their product - Some companies don't want anything streamed until they have a finished product, like in the case of when Eternal Card Game was in Closed Beta - They only wanted their beta testers to see the product.
Thread: Online Magic (NerdsofSteel xgreenandgold )

For the past seven months, Ethan has been role playing with girl known as Bombshell-Blonde95 on RedSun forums, an adult role playing website. He eventually got to know her and what she liked and even going as far as her telling him that she live in the same state and city with her. He was never good with girls but perhaps he might have his chance with Bombshell-Blonde95 as the two of like to role play. Of course neither one of them knew who the other looks like but was willing to take that chance and hope for the best.His dreams would come true if she really was a bombshell blonde. His friends would be totally jealous if they found he was dating a super hot chick. As he log into his account on RedSun, he left her a private message so she could read it whenever she gets the chance to sun. Where shall we meet? The Texas BBQ restaurant perhaps. He said sending the message to her under alias of FookMeFookU. It may had seem weird that he wanted to date with a woman he had just met on line, but he felt comfortable talking with her than any other girl. Almost like he knew her from somewhere. But maybe it was just a deja vu feeling, nothing more. Worst major scenario was she was just trolling him or if she was ugly. He was one the somewhat good looking side, acting like his age and not some high school teenager. He sip on a glass of cola as he wait for his turn to happem.

I really like the idea of the boyfriend blindfolding her and having his friend pretend it's him instead, only to reveal himself after she's been so blown away, and the friend starts using her whenever he wants, and the girlfriend submits, even when he is around.

For those of you interested in the genre of fan-fiction, National Public Radio's 1 A is airinghas aired a 50-minute discussion on fan-fiction, its influence, and some legal issues tied to playing in someone else's sandbox. It airs at 11 a.m. EDT on NPR, though it depends on your local NPR affiliate station as to whether they air it. If not, or if you miss it, here is the link, and they will have the podcast available later in the day for you to listen. 1A Fans and Fan Fiction The only thing I'd like to add is this It's saying something of how important what we're doing here is to the writing, fan-fiction, and fandom community when fan-fiction is being seriously discussed by a major media news outlet. It's not a ha-ha look, these folks aren't real writers, it's a very serious discussion on how important fan-fiction has been in supporting, spreading, and keeping fandom going, as well as helping writers write.

Thread: Fetched maid ( Kobrakid93 x Sharub )

Charles Spencer sat in his wheelchair, his eldest and only son Addison, standing behind him, on the front porch of their estate both gently waving farewell to their house maid. She had decided to resign after a work related incident had occurred. Addison wheeled his father back inside the large estate and immediately went to work on placing a ad for a new maid. Within only a few short hours there was an email expressing interest in the job. Addison quickly replied and arranged for a interview the following day. He gave the hopeful employee the address and waited patiently. The mansion itself was rather large, an old preserved colonial style that had been in the family for many generations. It resided on the outskirts of the nearby city tucked away from sight in the local forest. Addison waited patiently for the hopeful employee to arrive before he answered the door. He wore a dark red button up shirt complemented with a black tie and black slacks and shoes. The light shined on his brown hair that was neatly combed over just above his brown eyes. Good afternoon miss. My name is Addison. I'll be interviewing you for the job. he said politely. He took in a quick glance of her appearance, first impressions made or break most people, before showing her inside. He carefully watched her expression of the interior. It looked nice and well kept for as old as it was. Everything had been either redone or replaced at one point before being put in its current preserved state. The job is simple really. Just clean from top to bottom and assist our chef with meals by preparing the table. he explained. He began giving her a tour of the estate, showing her where she would have to clean and where she didn't. He finally brought her back to the main hall. So, do you think you can handle it? he asked. He suddenly heard loud barking from out back. Ah yes one more thing. You'll need to make sure Hamlet is fed and watered daily. Approach him slowly at first until he gets used to you. He's our guard dog so he can be somewhat aggressive to newcomers. he added.
Thread: Fetched maid ( Kobrakid93 x Sharub )

Addison paid close attention to Emily throughout the duration of the walking interview. While he wasn't blown away by any means, he also wasn't thoroughly disappointed either. After her confirmation and confidence in tending to Hamlet he nodded. Alright then. Can you start tomorrow? he asked curiously. The sooner he got the position filled the better. Once she gave her answer he nodded with approval. Alright then. Arrive here no later than seven a.m. Your uniform will be provided and cleaned for you in case of any disastrous mess. he said. He politely walked her to the door to see her out. Once she was gone he quickly set to work in preparing her uniform . Once finished and prepared he laid it out on a small table next to the front door for her to change into once she arrived for work. The day of her arrival started out like any other day. Addison assisted his father morning with breakfast and informed him of their new maid that would be starting that day. Addison went to the door to greet Emily when she arrived. Good morning miss Emily. he said with a soft smile as he let her in. Your uniform is prepared for you over there. he said, pointing to the maid outfit on the table. If it ever needs repaired or cleaned just let me know and I'll take care of it. he added. I reccomend starting your day with feeding and watering Hamlet first. That way he can start to get accustomed to your presence. he explained, a subtle trace of hesitation lined his voice. After that you can begin your daily duties with ease. Before I forget, your pay will be waiting for you on the table at the end of every week. he added. With that he walked off to finished tending to his father until his nurse arrived. He tended to his own work while Emily proceeded to start hers. He hoped that she would stay longer than their last maid but that all depended on how she was able to deal with Hamlet and if she was able to. He hoped that she would not be a repeat incident like their last one. On the way out back, a bag of dog food with a metal scooper inside could be seen. Next to it was a metal bucket for Hamlet's water bowl, the garden hose being located right outside the back door to fill the bucket with.
Thread: Fetched maid ( Kobrakid93 x Sharub )

Addison was on his way out the door when he heard Emily's voice. He turned to face her and listened to her claim. He took her in at a quick glance before lightly tilting his head to the side. He quickly walked around her, taking her in from every possible angle before stopping in front of her. No miss your uniform is tailored specifically to you. he said. Then it dawned on him. Ah ok I see what you mean. Your uniform is the correct size. It's one of father's rules or preferences from before I was born. I'm sorry but there's no changing it. he explained. With that he disappeared down a nearby hallway and left Emily to start her tasks.
