I'm a little surprised either of them have such a strong opinion about something EU related anyway, given it doesn't affect them directly. Well I guess Louis is just really passionate about that stuff so it's not all that surprising. As for Thor, maybe he's using his online presence to kickstart a live service game himself? Obviously regulations are scary in that case. It's a wild guess from my side but I think that would be on brand for him.

The potential legislation would be specific to the EU, but that doesn't really matter; this market is large enough that it would directly affect other markets. Either the games are patched for all territories or others will make the EU-specific build available. One option generates positive press, the other negative, and any difference in cost would be negligible.

There's also the argument of preserving art.
