Straight up plagiarized this mod for Fallout 4 DLC. Shameful.

Yeah, I'd say TBOGT is dlc for IV. While New Vegas is a completely separate release to 3, you twat.
>>
>>345063381

Nah, because FO3 is just Oblivion.

It's pretty obvious that Bethesda was ripping off a Morrowind mod, dumbass.

Good mod, is basically 90% talking so is pretty different.

Is New Vegas the true Fallout 3?

>>345064606
Yes.

>>345059824
So? he has no claim to it. And bethesda should incorporate modder ideas into their games since its often common sense shit that shouldve been in the game from the beginning

Depends on how you look at it.
>>
>>345064812
Implementing mechanics like survival modes, construction, and companion wheels is a bit different from lifting practically an entire quest.
>>
What's wrong with this? It's not like modders have legal ownership of their mods r-right
>>
>>345064970
No but it's an example of Bethesda's constantly mounting creative bankruptcy in spite of the praise being hurled at them for their writing.
>>
>>345064863
NV has more connections to 1 and 2 than 3. It even finishes Marcus' story.

So what? Bethesda owns the game. The modders steal the game and tweak it without their permission. Bethesda owns the mods they do. Modders are thiefs.

The code and similar resources are always copyright protected. The "ideas" are never protected for neither games nor mods. You can steal general ideas however you wish as long as you don't make a straight out identical copy.

Can't say I'm surprised it's a rip off.

I gave them the benefit of the doubt and looked into this. Yeah, straight up plagiarism. Nearly the exact same lines.

>>345065737
What in the ever loving fuck?
They released the GECK for the express purpose of mods being developed for the game. Officially-supported modding tools developed by the developer.

This isn't hard.

Read license agreement and don't make mods for bethesda games if you so afraid of this.
Although, they shit on modding community pretty hard currently.
>>
Skyrims dual wield was literally a copy/paste of the Oblivion mod - even the off-hand weapon disappeared when sheathed just like the Oblivion mod. This is nothing new when it comes to Bethesda.

Art, writing, Characters, Code...

The original DOTA did this, but when Blizzard tried claim rights over it when it got profitable with valve they failed because of their own system IE map makers created it with their tools and custom games were servers outside of blizzards control.

Thats why SC2 map maker sucks ass because their are so many stupid limitations in place and grabs for ownership. IE when you make a custom map in SC2 when you upload it you are GIVING it to blizzard to upload, that way they have ownership rather then the old WC3 system. This is the reason many map makers hated SC2, that and its tools are retarded.

I believe the argument in the court case for DOTA was something along the lines of the creator of the pain brush does not own the painting. However I doubt the original modder could claim damages.

Yes I would say "Ballad of Gay Tony isnt GTAV" because its dlc of GTAIV and not only that but also intertwines with both the lost and the damned and GTAIV's stories.

New Vegas only shares some assets and the engine, the story is like a hundred years later and vaguely references Fallout 3.

Fallout New Vegas is a stolen Fallout 3 mod.

So what's wrong about that? Bethesda takes the best parts of previous games and improve it.

There was another thread with another dumb faggot like you. No one is making a legal argument against this. Beth could legally sell Fallout to MS if the wanted. That doesn't make it any less of a shitty reprehensible thing to do

>>345065737

This is completely wrong as far as the law is concerned. Bethesda owns the game and any assets from the base game that are used by modders, but any new assets/contents created by a modder for the mod are considered the property of the modder.

I don't think that creating a quest with however similar setting can be called ripping off as long and none of original resources are used.
