It would affect video game developers that want to publish in the EU.

It likely won't affect Thor directly unless he makes a live-service game in the future. He just thinks it's harmful to the industry and tends to speak out about stuff like that.

Damn, imagine if it passes and devs just don't release in the eu anymore. I mean the best scenario we are all hoping for is it passes and is obliged by everywhere due to the Brussels effect. Doesnt mean it will though.

In the end, it may pass but publishers stop selling in the EU in an official capacity but europeans still digitally buy the games anyway...

No chance. There could be a few exceptions, but there's no shot that would have any amount of widespread adoption.
