You're insane and believe you're "The Emperor of Videogames". What's your 1st decree?

Dlcs are forbidden and only meaningful expansions are permitted in my country...!
Edit: also as the poster above me said: dismantle EA
 
Text adventure everything.

YOU SEE AN ENEMY SOLDIER TO THE NORTH.

>SHOOT

WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO SHOOT? YOU SEE ANOTHER ENEMY SOLIDER COMING FROM THE SOUTH.

>SHOOT ENEMY

WHICH ENEMY? THE SOLDIER TO THE NORTH SHOOTS YOU! YOU ARE WOUNDED!

>SHOOT SOLDIER TO THE NORTH

I'M SORRY, I DON'T KNOW "TO THE". YOU ARE SHOT AGAIN BY THE SOLDIER TO THE NORTH! YOU ARE ALMOST DEAD!

>SHOOT NORTH SOLDIER

YOU SHOOT THE SOLDIER TO THE NORTH FOR >1< DAMAGE! THE SOLDIER TO THE SOUTH SHOOTS YOU! YOU ARE DEAD!

>SHIT

I'M SORRY, I DON'T KNOW "SHIT".

***SOLDIER FROM THE SOUTH WOULD LIKE TO GIVE YOU A MESSAGE QUESTIONING THE SEXUAL PURITY OF YOUR MOTHER. DO YOU ACCEPT?***
 
If developers won't make thier older games available again through some digital distribution, running well at a reasonable price, then emulation is not only allowed but is encouraged.

Also developers who don't actively use thier IP will lose it or at least must allow others to develop games based on it
 
"downgrade" whining punishable by flogging.

Downgrade wining punishable by downgrading even more for no reason. This applies to every game since I am the empire, so the only option you got is play as it is or stop gaming forever.
 
I'd first shutdown Nintendo, giving the IPs to random devs.

I'd then give Obsidian the rights to Fallout and Alpha Protocol, and maybe Mass Effect because lol.

Lastly, I'd make next gen consoles modular, but at a reasonable price.
 
I hereby decree there will be a genre shuffle every 3 years and genre oversaturation is punishable by death. Also more variations in settings and themes.

FPSs are popular right now but you're craving to scratch that RTS itch? Wait a couple of years and you're guaranteed to see a comeback. Haven't played 3D platformers or oldschool arcade racers in a while? That must mean one is just around the corner.
Or else.

Wanna make a franchise? Either make a couple of smaller production games or one big one and wait your turn the next time your genre is allowed. Either wait, make the next Assassin's Creed a point & click adventure or face the gallows.

Except for Souls games. Miyazaki has a royal permission to do whatever he wants, whenever he wants it. As long as they're Souls games.

It's good to be the king.
 
The word "trash" and the phrase "is a joke" to be banned on all gaming discussion areas forever.

The idiots would find another way of offhandedly dismissing things that they can't afford/pirate, but at least I'd feel good about it for a bit.
 
I decree that we shall have a mech game revival. Mechwarrior Online shall be shut down, and we will get a new full featured mechwarrior game with a campaign.

Production on Chromehounds 2 shall commence immediately.

All Gundam games shalt be brought west, new and old.

There will be a new Front mission SRPG.

There will be a new Mechassault.

There will be a new Steel-Battalion fully utilizing VR.

Oh, and I guess we can have another Armored core too.

Rejoice!
 
All games must now cater to as wide an audience as possible. Anything remotely niche is now only available on mobile phones.
 
I would abolish all consoles and make ONE universal console and force all companies to make games for the ONE system. No more exclusivity. We...WE ARE ALL EQUAL NOW!!!
 
I shall mandate that sequels for games will have to be released a minimum of 3 years from each other and the game needs to have been in production for this period as well, no last minute rush to get the game out when release time is close.
 
All server installs are is released to the public when they are shut down for newer games. Along with this all server based games must allow for manual entry of IPs for these servers to allow them to be played for as long as the community wishes it to exist.
 
Shenmue Trilogy gets made. All publishers are mandated to contribute staff specialised in certain areas (Evolution sends people to help with weather for example) in order to ensure it's fucking flawless.

One console. Sony makes hardware, Microsoft makes OS level software/apps. Nintendo supervises gameplay (internal studios of all three still exist, and for some reason still get to create games that a thirdparty pub wouldn't). We stick Apple's name on it, and let them reveal it so that it's a automatic success. Also Sega's considered firstparty.

See EA Access? Every publisher has something similar (I don't give a shit about your "slippery slope" concerns).

Arcades are borught back, and hypnotherapy is used to condition people to fucking go to them.
 
All companies that own a game IP that hasn't been used in 10 years have to prove within 2 years that they still give a damn about it, or they forfeit all rights to the IP which are automatically put up for auction.
 
I decree that we shall have a mech game revival. Mechwarrior Online shall be shut down, and we will get a new full featured mechwarrior game with a campaign.

Production on Chromehounds 2 shall commence immediately.

There will be a new Front mission SRPG.

There will be a new Mechassault.

There will be a new Steel-Battalion fully utilizing VR.

Oh, and I guess we can have another Armored core too.

You, I like. You get a duchy under my rule.
 
Also:

- Creepy fanservice is forbidden. Developers who disobey the law get immediately shut down.
- It's illegal to outsource PC ports.
- It's also illegal to skip PC.
- It's illegal to put online play behind a pay wall.
- Fighting games are required by law to have superb netcode, then developers can optionally release story modes as free DLC.
- Every developer is required to develop at least one 3DS game a year.
 
I would immediately outlaw the following: profiting from streaming or let's play videos, e-sports, MOBAs, WoW-clone MMOs, card-based games, indies, mobile, gimmicky underpowered hardware, any framerate under 60fps and hollow or barren open-world games. Basically for open-world games if I can see it I need to be able to go there and if it's a building I need to be able to go everywhere inside of it.

I would want gaming to focus on graphics, fluidity, immersion, physics and AI.
 
Sony goes bankrupt, nintendo buys microsoft.

There will be retails games with handdrawn covers, colourful instructionbooklets, games clocked 60fps and every five years a new system is arriving. Tons of games and no shitty DLC,REMASTER, HD OR STUPID f2p games anymore.

Peace.
 
Every year make a new IP. If you fail to make a new IP every single person in your company will attend E3 in nothing but your underwear, covered in honey, and stand at the stage floor for everyone to see as Peter Molyneux licks the honey off.

"Sony and Microsoft leave the console market. The era of Nintendo monopoly begins!"
Guess we're going back to the stone age where people are scattered all over the place and barely communicate/interact with each other.

Although we are insane emperors, after all. I guess this works.
 
No more microtransactions, no more DLC that was cut from the original game (post game DLC is allowed), no more Nintendo. All consoles must be x86, and use asymmetrical analog sticks.
 
New Rise of Legends, Crimson Skies, MechCommander, and Impossible Creatures.

Also, Half-Life 3 as a Windows Phone exclusive, because I like watching people's heads go pop.
 
As the supreme Emperor of Gamerkind my first decree is that Intellectual properties will no longer go squandered. If an IP is held for longer than 5 years without a game being produced then it is immediately entered into a bid. Highest bidder gets a chance to make something of the IP.

Under my rule we'll finally get a new Dino Crisis and Onimusha.

Praise be to me.
 
I decree that all gaming-based harassment and hate groups are hereby disbanded!
Anyone who continues such actions is guilty of high treason and is permenantly banned from playing games and browsing the web.

Also, all debates about gaming issues must be done using evidence to back up claims without use of any logical fallacies or use of insults.
 
I decree that thy three wardens of the video game lands shall cast aside their differences and form the most perfect union to which manifest the Nintenplay One of Console Glory.

Lord Sony - though shall conjour and born the most stupendous of video game hardware for maximum P's, wee-fee's, and giga-bee's.

Lord Microsoft - though shall deploy a vast array of services that span the heavens and connect all of the peoples so that we may game in absolute harmony.

Lord Nintendo - though shall create games that emplores full use of the colors of the light and tickle's the fancy of all.

Now fetch me some Doritos and Mountain Dew for I have work to do.
 
- All controllers are henceforth replaced by Nintendo 64 controllers.
- Games must spend an excessive length of time in QA
- Rockstar must greenlight a new Red Dead, a new Bully and zombie DLC for both.
- Nintendo should just give me a Majora's Mask to wear everyday.
- LA Noire should be remade and re-released on whatever console gen we're on.
- More Lovecraftian games.
- More black comedy games.
 
No F2P games without a hard cap on total spend equivalent to a retail game price, at which point any restricted items are fully unlocked.

I'd ban 'whale' hunting, in other words.
 
F2P is illegal.
60 hour games come with an optional 10-15 hour version that have all the fat trimmed out.
F2P is illegal.
