Well, how can you apply the status of "used" to a digital good?
There is no way that BITS can get old and worn.
How can you set a price to something that is it like new and it is already sold by its creator?
I hope that Europe blocks this decision because it will just give a wrong example and will start uprisings for every digital content seller.
With the same logic of French then I MUST HAVE THE RIGHT TO SELL MY DIGITAL BOOKS and DIGITAL ALBUMS.
Crazy, right?
I guess the whole idea is that according to French laws, people who buy the game also have the right to later sell it should they wish to. To some extent this already happens unofficially as you can easily find game accounts far cheaper than buying the actual game but since those are unofficial there's always that element of doubt in them, if Steam starts providing this feature for the norm then It'd be a gamechanger imo, games and accounts won't retain their value over the years as much and developers could end up loosing money as well
