Can Blizzard and Bioware think of their own ideas instead of copying and profiteering off of Warhammer so blatantly?

Nope. And they're going to keep getting away with it.

>>337477395


Shit thread. As if half of these aren't common fiction themes/tropes that were alive years before any IP you mentioned. 0/10 apply yourself

>>337477395
No

fucking warhammer fags, KEK when will they learn.

Blizzard based their warcraft series on the tolkien universe namely the books Lord of the Rings and their starcraft series on heinleins starship troopers novel.

nobody gives a fuck about your action figure tabletop childrens game.

>>337478884
Actually that's not what I said. Blizzard plainly uses elements of GW IPs. But claiming Games Workshop is worthy of defense as if those ideas were original to them is just hilarious.

Thread is still 0/10
>>
ok. warhammer is basically

tolkien
dune
starship troopers

blizz and bioware are still shit tho
>>
>>337478884
wh being inspired by tolkien, dune and stroopers doesnt mean blizz and bioware didnt copy GW.
If you look at OP's post you'll see EXACT copy-pasting like the Warp/Fade/Twisting Nether, which PROVES they did.

>no proof just baseless insults

Ok
