The guy who started the petition went on a livestream with the guy on the right (a popular twitch streamer who calls himself a game developer).
The guy on the right was a huge asshole on the stream, fundamentally misunderstanding the petition and calling it “overly vague” while not knowing a single thing about eu law or even the petition.
When called out on it, he doubled down and refused to apologise. The petition calls for the ability for games to either be playable offline or selfhosting tools to be provided once game’s live service had ended, so that games you buy don’t become unplayable forever.
It was kinda just really annoying cos it’s a great petition and the guy on the right just knew jack shit and parroted incorrect talking points
Especially because it probably ultimately hurt the petition greatly, with it still needing twice as many signatures as it has already by the end of next month.
The more I hear and learn about the guy beyond clips, the more I dislike. What a prick.

Yeah, if you inform yourself just a little you will realize how Thor is CLEARLY doing this for something else, to protect his interest or someone else’s interests.
I liked watching his stream, but the dude completely fell from grace. What an entitled asshole.

Pirate software is a clip farmer, outside those clips hes just a ragebaiter with an ego of a moon. Dont forget, his dad was a big shot corporate man or whatever

Guy uses software to make his voice deeper on stream. Absolute clown.

I don’t get it why spam this repeatedly across Reddit, and make whole story about this guy? Shouldn’t be giving better reasons to want people sign it, not create hate posts towards someone that got beef with?
As much as I like to sign, I can’t due not from EU, and like last one you made that got removed from mod at r/pirate I’m surprised this haven’t cracked 500k signatures for almost half a year this been going.

Pirate software was a good streamer who would do a good job explaining tech stuff and how it works. Then he just started giving L take after L take

this type of political changes are incredibly difficult even with competent peoples who know what they are doing. adding streamer drama to this ain’t it, chief.

Correct, with less than a month left, we need LOADS MORE signatures to get it done.
And even then, it’s only half of the way, but if we don’t do anything, games will continue to vanish into oblivion and we will leave effectively nothing behind.

his dad was a corpo, obviously he turns out a corpo shill.

Oh they did a live stream? I thought Thor said he wouldn’t talk to him
Sufficient-Trade-349
Did he say that his dad worked at Blizzard?

I saw everyone glazing this guy around when he was getting popular and I always felt his persona was never as incredible as everyone hyped him up to be and he’s just a good yapper for those who don’t understand. Glad to see my gut was correct (kinda)

Stop fooling yourselves with this petition. Even with the writing at hand right now it won’t stop any “killing” of games, it’s just demagogy

I liked his videos, he teaches a lot about tech and stuff. Welp, there’s always a downfall

Thor is a corporate lobbyist.

Thor used to be killing it with YouTube Shorts. I haven’t even seen anything from him come up on my FYP in ages.

I liked the [youcanmakegames.com](http://youcanmakegames.com) website he made to encourage amateur game development but he seems like he’s trying to keep his former bosses at Blizzard happy on this one.

We pay for a computer, we can use it, destroy it, modify it. It should be true with video game. As long as no one make a profit out of the IP of the creator, we should be able to do anything with the game.

That petition was basically just “video game servers should be up forever!”
