The Pirate Software 'Stop Killing Games' drama emerged when Thor, a prominent game developer and streamer, critiqued the global initiative led by Ross Scott of Accursed Farms. The movement aims to legally prevent publishers from rendering purchased games unplayable, but Thor's technical and legal deconstructions sparked a massive divide in the gaming community. Memes surrounding this topic typically highlight the clash between industry-centric logic regarding EULAs and the consumer's emotional and practical desire for permanent access to their digital library. It has become a staple for discussing the ethics of live-service gaming and the reality of digital 'ownership' in the modern era.
