I am just curious, do you have a take on how Nintendo’s lawsuit could be legitimate? Even a high-level theory, surely if you are so concerned about speculation and “greedy clickbait”, you have some logical ideas to back this up?

I would argue we do have enough information to have a take on it. What legitimate patent infringement case do you see in context of Palworld and Nintendo’s products? Be clear and specific.

If you’re going to call for a ban on commentary, you need to have some of argument.

From my perspective, it is crazy to defend some random corporation in this way when you can’t even come up with a basic explanation of why critical commentary is not justified at this stage.

Without going through all of their patent filings no one can. So again, that is the point. Lack of info

We are both gamers (I am assuming this is true for you since you’re commenting here). I am not talking about legal understanding of Japanese patent law. Just a practical evaluation of Palworld vis-a-vis Nintendo products. What genuine technical innovation (I am not talking about bullshit patents for stuff that was implemented many decades ago) do you see in Nintendo’s products that was copied by Palworld?

This is not difficult.

Never said a ban on commentary, just hate bullshit articles.

The implication of thread OP was that articles critical of Nintendo (in the context of this case) should not be published as of today, no? Why is any commentary immediately categorized as “greedy clickbait” or “rehashed content”?

Something I agree with you on. Let them fight. This discussion is in the context of bullshit articles with zero information.

I would argue it’s not a bullshit article as I have yet to hear a single example of what legitimate (in the real sense, not related to Japanese patent law) case Nintendo has. What is this magical innovation that we see in Nintendo products that was copied by Palworld?

What is your argument here? Your support the Japanese patent law irrespective of whether it reflects reality? You would be OK with Japanese patent that is de facto non-valid (i.e. the approach was already used in games 10+ years ago) just to support a random company?

I am going off memory, but one example would be one of the Japanese gaming companies patenting cross-game saves (release to sequel); an approach that was implemented by the Ultima games 10+ years before the patent was filled? Do you support this?

We have access to Palworld, we have access to Nintendo products. If commentary criticizing Nintendo is “greedy clickbait”, then what innovation has been abused by Palworld? Can you provide an example in context of gaming experiences?

Random fact. Epic Mickey was developed by Junction Point Studios, founded Warren Spector, who was one of the lead creators of the original Deus Ex.

I wonder if he is trying to target younger and more casual gamers; people who don’t know that he is a liar and a scammer.

5 min intro video on Molyneux’s new game, Masters of Albion.

Customisation is hardly the biggest problem with Molyneux; I mean he literally developed a scam game, Legacy with its NFT land scheme.

He created a literal scam game; Legacy. They had an NFT land ruse where you could buy high value land for your in-game business.

When the game released no one played it and the “NFT land” turned out to be worthless (Molyneux did get to keep the money though).

Poor VTMB2 is cursed.

Not to mention it will difficult for it compete with the sheer uniqueness of the original VTMB for its time.

I actually like these sort of boxes graphics, another game that has them is Cloudpunk; for reason I feel like the voxel graphics fit the world.

I have a feeling this is going to impact total COD revenues, but I could be wrong.

Unless this is part of their enshittification strategy where they will massively raise prices and make franchises Game Pass exclusive once they get a large enough foothold in the market.
