SKG will prevent game publishers from making online games unplayable. This could be as simple as releasing the server code and adding a setting to allow custom servers.

Basically the official servers can die, as long as unofficial servers can be used instead.

Or more so semi-online games. With some components that should be fully playable offline. There is no reason why these offline components shouldn't continue to operate when servers are shutdown.
