...Huh. What if the primary requirement to keep copyright was to use them? I.E. In order to keep your copyright for a series, you had to keep making games for that series, or it became public domain? Not sure this is a good idea, but it's an interesting one. :/
@Angle I think best case scenario, companies eventually release their shit and get their heads out of their asses.
Worst case scenario, creative industries now have an arbitrary labor sink dedicated to the contemporary equivalent of direct-to-video sequels ala Land Before Time number umpteen-trillion.
@Angle That's the real question. And realistically I could see lobbyists in that scenario trying to push for the bare minimum. Hello shitty-ass mobile freemium moneymills! Well shit, hello slot machines here and pachinko machines over in Japan ala Komani. XP
