I’m not sure what you mean. If you shut down a game and a law demands extra work to stand up a F2P server, who pays for that work? That’s the “shutdown bill” I’m talking about.
Yes, the law encourages you to act responsibly from the start.
This is like a chemical plant complaining that they have to pay for cleanup when they shut down because they didn't follow proper procedures to prevent environmental harm while operating.
So an indie dev just trying to make a multiplayer game with no budget and no graceful shutdown plan may be acting irresponsibly?
Is the world really better if those people face additional burden? Does it create a fairer system that helps indies succeed? Does it encourage creativity?
