This guy legit thought he could create and sell a fan-pony game on Steam using distinct g4 style pony models? Boy is he going to be asshurt.
>>25917265
Boy aren't you a special snowflake.
You're the reason we cant have nice things.
I cant call you a faggot because it was the right thing to do, but I hope you're happy you self righteous little shit.
>>25917265
WHY ARE YOU DEFENDED HASJEWS THEY FUCKING RUIN EVERYTHING LIKE FIGHTING IS MAGIC. KILL YOURSELF DO THE WORLD A FAVOR

Using a certain style isn't against copyright, dumbass.

Damn that's autism.
You, I mean.
>>25917265
Well it looks like someone didn't even bother to do any research, as I looked around for 2 seconds and found that this game is free to play..
>>25917496
Looks like someone doesn't know there's a patreon dedicated to it.
>>25917463
It's one dude wasting his time trying to make something nice.
Meanwhile you're wasting time being a dick.
But try to justify yourself all you want on >>>/b/.

Patreon isn't for the creators profit, its for the project

Seriously if you want to pass as epic shit at least do something yourself.
>>25917528
glad to see OP is safe in his little baby cage.
I was actually trying to get a hold of the Developers for a story change to prevent C&D.
They wanna sink,
They can. I tried to help.
r.i.p.
>>25917595
If the dev wanted to create a game bronies would like he wouldn't have ripped off the design and concepts from MLP, plain and simple. There are many routes he could have gone, and an original idea of homage would have been better than a blatant ripoff.
>>25917265
>If steam will not work out, I'll just release the game on my website for free. But really, I guess Hasbro definitely can't be this dumb to just shut down the project they can earn more money on.
From the mouth of the developper.
Is he a complete retard, or joined the fandom last night ?
A greedy oblivious retard, that's a great recipe for interesting drama, oh boy oh boy !
>>25917463
"It's shit now, so let's try to kill it off before it has any time to get better"? Have I got your thinking right, here?
>>25917496
>this game is free to play
>therefore it can't be C&D'd
Not sure where this meme came from but it's 100% false. Fighting is Magic was always going to be free to play. People talk about the EVO thing, but if the devs could have gotten out of the C&D by turning down the money, they 100% would have.
>>25917513
Patreon is explicitly intended for donations to a person, not to any particular project.

>I guess Hasbro definitely can't be this dumb to just shut down the project they can earn more money on.
Holy shit, this guy must be totally oblivious
An oblivious game dev.
A board of losers that hate oblivious game devs
A company that hates both.

>>25917463
I'd say you're autistic for caring, but fuck.
It's not even like there was an attempt to make it original here.
>>25917265
Snitch ass nigga Op.
Implying you're the first to do this shit.
There have been literally dozens of complains filed, you're not some special snowflake.
>>25917265
>>25917463
>wah people aren't allowed to play what I don't like
bet you feel real mature right now OP
>>25917998
The superiority complex is real.
>>25917265
How much does Hasbro pay you?
>>25917978
On steam probably, but I wonder if that reached hasbro before.
OP is still a fag though.
>>25918016
I didn't go through the effort of reporting a game just because I don't like it.
>>25918053
Someone posted a nearly identical image to this a month ago on steam. OP just wants to feel powerful.
I have a theory. Sam never left after Dark Skyes failed. Instead, he continued to lurk /mlp/, vowing to report and destroy ALL fan content in revenge for /mlp/ taking his bitch-ass down. Some say he still lurks to this day, blowing the whistle on any and all new pony games that may appear, before going off to have interracial gay man sex with Pikapetey and Barneyfag.
>>25918080
Nah, you decoded to white night for a company so you could have the raging justice boner of shutting down something that you thought was legally unscrupulous. Case and point, you posted this to 4chan to stir up dissention and masturbate to the chaos. Damn, I almost pity your sorry ass.
>>25918177
Are you even tracking the conversation you're replying to, stupid?
>>25918171
That's too much autism for a single person.That's why it's totally plausible.
>>25918188
Yeah, and I'm watching you sit there and stumble to justify your actions when it's painfully obvious that you're just interested in irritating this board. I'd assume you were trolling, but damn you sound like you've actually convinced youself that you're in the right. Check out copyright laws before you post shit like this, you aren't doing anyone favors by either pissing off fans or filling the inbox of a legal department that can't take action.
>>25918241
>>25918177
I'm not on OP's side dumbass
>>25918259
Weird, you responded with I so i thought you were OP. Sorry man.
>>25918241
Are you legitimately retarded? I'm >>25918171 and >>25918027, for reference.
>>25918177
Hey, uh, Buddy.
Unless they did give him permission, which I doubt they will unless it's to a massive game company, which will still release a Micro-Transaction fed game, he really has no Fair Use of it, as he is Violating 3 out of 4 stipulations stated in Title 17, Article 107 of the Fair Use laws.
He is actually in Copyright Violation, and if it officially releases on Steam, Valve can get hit very hard in the pocket.
>>25918285
Probably a retarded faggot.
>>25918303
Does Hasbro hold a copyright on the characters portrayed in the demo?
>>25918303
>defending C&D orders

They fuck you because you let them fuck you, anon. They know you're too chickenshit to do anything about it.
>>25918343
>>25918352
Use of the names and characteristics does technically fall under their IP. Think of it. When she said "Starswirl" (Little blue thing) in the first demo trailer, we all knew it'd be ending badly because that liiiittle tiiiiiny bit of IP was used. Then the "original" models.
Just saying, he should try a bit harder to do two things,
1. Not release it on a paid company platform
2. Not completely rip off the show's characteristics.
I'm just saying that if it's completely unoriginal like THIS GAME then it's gotta be shut out. Protecting IP. Believe me, I hate to admit it too, but in law school I have to.
>>25918403
Well, you do have a point. However, That's all alpha footage. I'm fairly certain the developer has heard of these issus, so I'd wager changes are in the works.
>>25918451
>An anon who agrees ripping off without being contracted by Hasjew will end badly and is earned through such actions.
Thank you, God! Someone who understand the shit of Fair Use. But like I said, I have to White Night due to law School. I really don't want this game C&D'd, believe me, I want it to be something Hascuck supports, but I just can't let glaring IP Thievery get ignored like that.
Like I said, I wrote them requesting to join the Writing team to assist with changes in the story SPECIFICALLY to avoid IP Infringement, and listed credible reasons why she and her team would be forced to stopMainly the Personal/Characteristics of the use factor, Length of Use, and a few other factors such as the Confusion factor and Likeness FactorIt's breaking the IP boundaries set, and we can't do aything but convince. If they're wrong, we can only ask they be granted mercy. Trust and believe, I want this game to be out for all to see and play, and for others to enjoy and critique, but... It's just ot right, especially if Cuckbro didn't comission this.
>>25918373
Looks like someone hates people who have *just* a bit of favoritism in this case.Yes, I favor valve for the Quality Games i had as A child, and how they've managed to keep up through so much. Fuck off.

He's not just a lonely guy. In the latest update two days ago, they mentioned that the team has already nearly twenty members.
They are also re-recording the shitty voice tracks.

>>25919038
Guess that won't matter now, huh.
>>25919083
Hope springs eternal. Maybe these guys will have the sense and smarts to go underground if C&D does come.
Stay mad, madfag.
>>25917462
Characters and "likeness" can be copyrighted. So yes. Yes it can.
>>25918171
>Pikapetey
Genuinely interested - why him?
>>25918541
Lawbro, if youre still around.. What do you mean by the likeness factor, exactly? Do you mean because the characters are obviously celestia and luna, or do you mean ponies in general, in the sort of stubby fashion that has come to represent the current gen?
For instance, if a dating sim such as that dark skyes (but real) were attempted, and no references to any characters, or mlp, or equestria, or anything hasbro has made, but the artwork depicted ponies and unicorn and pegasi, would hasbro have a legal ground to c&d it?
>>25921812
Not him, but I believe that Hasbro wouldnt have a legal ground to c&d it unless they completely copy the art itself.also, the use of unicorns, alicorns and pegasus are probably allowed since they didn't make those creaturesI can be wrong..
