Even if you don’t mention who you signed it with? There’s quite a bit difference between saying “I’ve signed NDA” and “I’ve signed NDA with company (name)”
Breaking the agreement does not always mean you will get in trouble for it. This is the one rule that can be risked breaking without facing repercussions.
The really awful part is that there’s not really any regulation that can stop this. If you ban taking away games people bought then they’ll just switch to a subscription which is even worse
If you had reasonable copyright terms like 5 years and a requirement to release code/digital artifacts for library archival once it becomes public commons?
Except that’s not a problem in many countries so I don’t know why it has to be this way. US media ownership laws are among the worst in the world in that they are basically non-existent. It’s always been like this because we lack imagination and the companies are greedy as hell.
Like people act like this is a new problem with digital media, but it is actually the case with physical media too - there are all sorts of restrictions about what you can and can’t do with it. We basically don’t own anything media-wise, we never have. The difference is now they can enforce it more strategically and effectively with digital downloads.
Bringus Studios had a video yesterday on the alpha I Dec kit for the original devkit. Not only was the segway pretty slick but it had his signature humor included which actually made me watch through half the ad.

Man I was so sad when Ubisoft bought Blue Byte. I always held out hope that they’d switch publishers eventually but they never did and then they got bought. Now I know I’ll always have to put up with Ubisoft bullshit to play Anno, one of my all time favourite franchises.
I purchased Rayman Legends on a big Steam sale because it is a great game and I wanted to play it again. I installed it. I hit play. It tried to install the Ubisoft launcher. I uninstalled it and refunded.
You’re saying you got out of college ten years ago, and worked for exactly one company that entire time, and you can’t say who it was or what you did because of an NDA?
