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

Consoles forbidden. PC to rule them all. And therefore no more exclusive games.
All games must be DRM free.
All games must allow mods.
All games must have graphical options like support for all resolutions, unlimited fps etc..

Oh I forgot more the last part of my rule:
All games are made for Linux and Vulkan and Microsoft burns in hell.
 
Banishes David Kim, designer of Starcraft 2 and whoever "designed" Beyond Earth. Forces every videogame company that makes strategy games to make game design theory an compulsory subject of their curriculums.
 
Games must be 60fps locked, vsync, and not fall below 60fps for 95% of the game (average figure). For consoles, Obviously.

I decree I'll make this happen with Kojima and all of the executives at Konami.
 
Games that cost over $100 million to make will be subsided by the government, but must cost $80 at launch, with no preorder bonuses (unless every retail outlet has the same one) or paid DLC.

Steam's refund system is implemented on all current consoles through firmware updates, as is the ability to trade games, permanently or not, with friends.
 
All console games are mandated to run at 60fps, except for open worlds which are permitted a locked 30fps. Make whatever graphical concessions you have to, developers.
 
Everybody have to buy The Wonderful 101 and complete it, or else you will be forced to play Bugsy 3D for the rest of your life
 
Ridiculous complaining is punishable by banishment from any gaming except on flip phones. Obviously, I get to decide what constitutes as ridiculous.
 
All loading screens will feature meatspin. Mandatory. If you don't have a load screen in your game, then you have to use a small spinning wang as your auto-save icon.
 
Any and all game must now be created under a 5 year exclusivity deal with a platform maker. Let the console wars actually mean something again.
 
All games must be developed for Quad SLI Titan X powered PCs only. it's time we stopped holding back the potential of games due to pathetic consoles.
 
Order the greatest RPG minds, namely Chris Avellone <3, to make an epic Frank Herbert's Dune RPG. Then make me a Conan the Barbarian RPG.

Wipe out all hyperbole and exaggerations from the gaming forums.

Store exclusive DLC is punishable by quartering.
 
Every bare bones game that gets released and planned to get DLC (both free or paid) would be forbidden in my empire. Release a meaty game or bust, I'd rather have them delay it for an extra 6 months. Season passes would be gone, you could only pay for it after the content has been announced and not a moment sooner. And every single form of pre-order bonus, be they exclusive or not, would be no more.
 
I mandate that all games released should be new IP. If a game "must" have a sequel to finish the story line either dev release sequels at same time or just make a bigger game with one title. Oh and and no more MP titles. Every franchise must be exclusive to the platform and every console gets one. Including Wii U and the Vita.


I also decree that from this day forth I will have a marching band and a 250 piece orchestra accompany me every where I go to announce my arrival to a room and to play my favorite video game music whenever I am in the mood to hear an awesome tune.
 
All games must be released in a complete state, meaning that they will contain all content created during the development process and extra care will be taken to ensure that a day one patch won't be essential to the game's functioning. To clarify, DLC packages and expansion content is all well and good, but it needs to be significant. No more of that pre-order DLC or on-disc DLC crap. If a game isn't truly ready, it should be delayed.
 
Talking about video games punishable under death.
 
Everyone who buys a game that launches with game breaking bugs/glitches, gets to punch the CEO or project lead once where ever they choose.

Overnight, games would stop being released broken.
 
Service era.
Concurrence only on services on 3-4 defined configuration with no exclusivity when it comes to games
 
I would order today's equivalent of the Nintendo Playstation to be made.

PC gaming will become illegal.

Piracy punishable by death.

Everyone aspiring to play games has to get their license first by clearing super mario bros 1 without using warp zones.

Don't ask me for reasons because I'm clearly insane.
 
All games must have vertical synchronization. All Ps4/Xbone titles must have 8AF minimum. Those of current gen who do not must patch.

In app purchasing and pay2win models are outlawed.

And all games must give special thanks in the credits to "Emperor of Videogames, He who holds The Light"
