Plus with entertainment stuff they’re usually finished once released (or at least they SHOULD be cough cough game industry). It would be better if every game was open source, especially since there are tons of old games that could do with revamps but are too niche to invest in. If we had the source though, die hard fans would be all over that shit and wouldn’t have to spend years decompiling and romhacking!
But that said, creative tools need to he constantly updated and should be open source always in case something goes bad. My ROM of Spyro for the PS1 isn’t changing anytime soon, so while it would be better for the source to be out there, I’m not worried about it suddenly becoming unusable.
