Well... ****

im not sure if this was stated, but if you record your gameplay it is in fact considered a unique experience, and, as of now, is considered legel, as long as you are doing something to make it unique, cutscenes, on the other hand are not. unless you show yourself playing the games. it is modified enough to be ok. this rule will stop that

Nothing will change...No fan is ever going to be fined for doing a guitar cover of a song or something.

This will never pass. The game dev's lawyers will step in and stop it. Also, from a public POV, jail sentences and fines would be extreme. Also, more vids normally means more sales.
The entire game review industry would crash, game magazines would close and all sorts.

Therefore, It will NEVER pass...

Perhaps it's time to update the OP with the more informed info?

Can I work at Sackinima?

(is this a necro post?) anyway, the game industry will be affected, but they aren't the reason behind the law, its mostly movie makers and musicians. seeing as if you see a movie or hear a song you get the same experience, where as in a game watching a playthrough isnt as good as playing ya know?
