Saw people talking in comments at several places now, expressing animosity towards them to say the least, always presented as something that everyone seems to know about.

I mean, hey: it worked to make Apple finally drop their proprietary charging connector. As long as the cost of losing business in the EU is higher than designing an EOL transition for games and hiring developers to actually do it, it’s in their best interests.
I hate to break it to you but the EU is not that strong of a market lol
People seriously underestimate the cost of this sort of thing, companies do NOT want to hand out copies of their proprietary software to the public.
The pretty much always have tonnes of important shit baked into it that still gets used in their newer software, so even if its old stuff, it still has bits and bobs in it that matter for their newer stuff they just put out.
But also just, in general, companies are not gonna be chill with people demanding they give them a copy of their backend software. It’s just not gonna happen, and the EU is definitely the weaker of the 3 major markets. Companies are just gonna go “lol, now you don’t get to play online I guess” instead.
