I don’t think that’s right. Nintendo cares about the lawyers cost, because that is huge. Especially the expensive ones Nintendo has, if it goes for a long time. Nintendo wants to settle this, not dragging it in court. Plus Nintendo losing in court would be very bad for them, because that signals others they can fight back. And worse, if they lose, then it becomes 100% legal everyone can point to.
Therefore Nintendo does that only if they are 100% certain, not just to intimidate like Rockstar does. And the brought up case of Yuzu does not apply here, because that was not just intimidation, that was because the Yuzu developers themselves shared Tears of the Kingdom millionth of times in Discord. And Nintendo collected this evidence against them. Yet, Nintendo did not go to court and wanted to do this with a settlement. Even in this case, Nintendo saves money and does not risk losing the battle.
Sued for what? There is nothing Nintendo can sue for. Also we talked about Cease and Desist before, not sueing. Also can you explain me, if you are right, why Nintendo didn’t do that with prior decompilation projects of Mario and Zelda games that reached 100% and are played on a variety of systems now?
This is not what happened to Yuzu. They gave up, because the Yuzu team would lose the case. Nintendo collected evidence in their Discord server, how the developers of Yuzu shared Tears of the Kingdom millionth of times. It was 100% not legal. On the other side, we are talking about legal projects like decompiling.
If you are so right, why didn’t Nintendo Cease and Desist prior projects? What makes it Twilight Princess so different or special, that it will happen now? I know why, because Nintendo can’t do anything here. Cease and Desist letters are a personal request, not a legal threat. If the team ignores it, nothing will happen.
Never happened with many Zelda and Mario games before. They are on the safe side, if the code is 100% self written. The assets are not part of the project, they can be extracted from the official games. This is legal.
Oh it was a joke, and I fell for it. I know about the old game, but thought it was referred to the assumption the new game was cancelled. There was lot of talk and assumption about this.
“again”? More like “still”. I assume they needed extra time to rework art assets. I’m not shocked that they still work on the game, as otherwise years of work would be wasted. And Bungie would start from scratch. But they need something NOW.
I have no doubt it will be good in gameplay. The art style has some identity too to it. I think they are quiet, so people forget about the problems and do not talk about it anymore until its resolved. What I wonder is, if they will keep the same game name or will there be a new brand attached to it?
You can also open up random porn websites and see stuff that shouldn’t be on Steam. Also having it randomly in nature is one thing, appearing in a shocker / horror videogame with the context of children want to ride naked horses (which are human with mask) riding is another. It’s all about context.
I can judge a style and the art without playing the game. I just said how it looks to me. My earlier point was, if you make a game like that, you shouldn’t be surprised getting banned. And the creator does the best out of it and makes a scene of it. I would probably too, because it generates a lot of buzz and is free marketing. People who never had this in radar will either purchase or talk and make more marketing. So, I am not blaming him doing what he does right now.
I mean at one point in the trailer you see two real horses fucking (f*cked up literally). From what I see it’s not just horror, its about shocking. And I believe not every game should be on Steam. Where the line is, I don’t know.
