Came back to the game after a year or so, just to see this:
At least they let us disagree to the ToC. Not sure if I can play the game after that though, since I just exited after clicking the
disagree
button.Also, at least they show us the changes on the top, so we know what happened.
Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.
Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.
This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.
No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.
We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

It’s good to live in the EU where such terms don’t apply.
I don’t get this part.
How come they explicitly state the European Economic Area, while at the same time, it doesn’t apply there?Or do the European Economic Area and EU refer to different things?
Or is it that they thought the user will not care to check in case they have a problem big enough to seek legal aid?
The EEA shows up in the list of places it does not apply. They worded it strangely, first calling out the US as a place where it does apply. Then they change it up and say it also applies to anywhere not on this specific list of places
Ah you’re right. Rereading it fixed the doubt. Guess I skipped a few words the first time.
Mental note to not skip words in a legal document. Or any written document.
EEA and EU are related but not the same
Currently EEA consists of the EU states + some other European countries.
Yeah because we have an actual working legal system
