but they even mention the likenesses by name! it’s stupidity‎²! 

Extremely, profoundly stupid of them to literally just trace over that picture of her. They easily could have used it just as reference and then changed up the wardrobe and facial features a bit so that it wasn’t so clearly her.

Problem is, its a Chinese game... they have been sued and lost so many times for intellectual copyright violations and more and I have never heard of anyone being able to collect....

Sometimes with the likeness lawsuits its kinda like “YEAH.. it does SORTA look like the person”.. but with this... wow. They literally traced a photo of her.

Same, and same. I hope the rest of these celebs get in line and start suing them too. It’s not like anyone has anything better to do right now anyway.

Very few things tumble upward.

Now is a great time for a long drive from point A to point A.

And just like that, I’ve lost all interest in this game.

What? Why would Nintendo bother to...

That’s the case for trademarks, NOT copyrights. This is a copyright issue, which that doesn’t apply to.

The point in shutting down “fan creations” is that they reach a point of being a substitute for the original. I think this is the case here. Dreams is rife with stolen/copied content which is a real shame considering how much you can do with it. You give people these amazing tools to work with and all they do is clone…

the “no shit this was going to happen” award goes to Sony for not stopping this from the start

Just so you know ‘Tar-baby’ is also a derogatory racial slur.    Not accusing you, but you should be aware.

It’s been confirmed hundreds of times now—woman, the handicapped, veterans, and even little girls are legitimate targets of right-wing-fuckwits.
