Game Ownership Risk Tracker
Build a web app and browser extension that scores games on true ownership durability: offline playability, DRM dependence, server requirements, and shutdown risk. It helps buyers avoid purchases that may become inaccessible and gives collectors alerts when a title’s access model changes.
Pourquoi c'est important
You buy a game thinking a disc or download means lasting access, then discover your ability to play depends on remote checks, launcher behavior, or a server the publisher may not keep alive forever. The frustration spikes during outages, but the deeper problem is uncertainty before purchase. You do not want to read forums, legal debates, and scattered compatibility notes every time you consider a title. Existing store pages rarely tell you the full story, and community discussions are inconsistent. A clear risk score and alert system would let you make informed buying decisions and avoid titles that could quietly turn into dead purchases later.
- · Conçu pour PC and console gamers, collectors, and preservation-conscious buyers who want to know whether a purchased game will remain playable without vendor services..
- · Monétisation la plus probable : Freemium with premium subscription.

Différenciation
Pourquoi cela pourrait échouer
Auto-contre-argument — le signal de confiance le plus important
- 1The audience may be vocal but too niche, using the product only around major controversies rather than subscribing continuously.
- 2Data freshness may become a constant manual burden because publishers change requirements without clear announcements.
- 3Store platforms could alter page structures or policies, reducing the usefulness of the browser extension.
Résumé des preuves
Comment l'IA a synthétisé cet aperçu — pas de citations textuelles
The strongest pattern in the discussion is anxiety that purchased games may stop working when online checks fail or servers disappear. Roughly ten comments touched ownership fragility, preservation risk, or reliance on unofficial cracks. Several users contrasted nominal ownership with actual access, suggesting a clear need for a neutral product that translates technical and policy complexity into a buyer-friendly risk indicator.
