Do you think that video games will be still known when they will enter the public domain (copyrights expiring)?

Even if they are known, will they still be playable?

Looking at the state of the new Fifa and other sports games: No, no they won't be playable unless someone reverse engineers EA's servers.

Fr. I keep all her repacks that i download in zipped form on a big ass HDD for cold storage that way i can install and uninstall them without redownloading to save ssd space. I love the music her installers have in it too lol.

Right? The music is legit catchy for a demotune, way better than whatever Razor used to put out
