I think this is one time I actually would prefer to have a nook.

As far as creating it goes, generlaly not. It’s distribution that becomes the problem. Also the answer differs if we’re talking about copyright (optional policing) or trademark (surmounts to mandatory policing). Most of the clients I’ve represented care more about their EXACT work being redistributed (i.e. piracy)…

Sending it now, my firm e-mail for some reason is bouncing back so I’m sending you it from my backup gmail account to make sure it goes through.

It’s not always that easy - especially if you have a surprise hit on your hands. Look at Doki Doki Literature Club - the creator certainly didn’t expect he response he got and it was just one person on the project. So in order to strike while the iron was hot he had to quickly get together a vendor to make products…

Generally it does help to have someone at the onset - as I stated in my earlier post most of my clients have contacted me just as they are starting up so they get all their ducks in order beforehand. It certainly helps that if you have registered the copyright that the copyright office keeps contact information for…

At least it’s not a Reddit AMA. . . .right EA?

As an attorney I’ve had to protect a few clients for this myself. And yeah, it sucks for the fanbase but for small indies and people who are just getting started in the creative industry allowing fan works to be sold not only directly competes with your ability to put out your own merchendise but also sets precident…

Good, I’ve stopped playing Destiny for weeks - not because of me not enjoying the game but there is literlaly nothing rewarding to do. It doesn’t help that once you complete the narrative (up to and including the raid) there doesn’t feel like there’s any reason to do anything else - you just get tokens for basically…

Pickpocketing is the number one crime in Japan - but as I’ve always said, if the worst crime you have to worry about in visiting a major city is pickpocketing; you’re in pretty good shape.

I’ve been to Japan three times in the past seven years. Last time my wife and I went we were commenting on just how safe it looks and feels wandering around in Tokyo.

We will go down dark alleys to visit shops, walk empty streets late at night back from a train station, aimlessly explore city back streets and shops and…

Hopefully this is good. I absolutely adore To the Moon - it’s one of my favorite indie titles. But I just played Bird Story and will say I was very disjointed in it so hopefully this lives up to the former and not the latter.

This is probably the worst part about mobile game development (with evergreen licenses) that I hate the most. This tendency to only create games you plan to support in the short term to attract whales and move on to another game quickly thereafter to encourage that same mentality. It sacrifices the games for short…

Same here; most people in my family actually look forward to it.

Ultimate Alliance was unquestionably the better game (both it and its sequel) but I did find this game a decent band aid over the fact that I feel like we will never get another Ultimate Alliance. It was a reasonably enjoyable diablo clone that suffered from some odd design choices (inventory bloat, way too may…

It certainly helps how even within the story arc you see he’s still being taken advantage of by Lumina and he doesn’t even realize it. Guzma is a bully and not a good person but it’s fairly easy to sympathize with what drove him to these circumstances. I’d honestly argue he has more depth than most pokemon characters.

T…

I always thought the fact that Guzma wasn’t a power hungry megalomaniac was part of the reason he was beloved from teh get go. Then I played it and I actually do agree. Guzma is heavily disillusioned by the world around him and no one is really able to give him a reason why it happened. The youth in team skull are…

Normally I hate the joke trailers go out on because it usually consists of some bad editing, a dumb reaction shot to a clip from somewhere else in the film or some snazzy one-liner joke.

But this one? This one is perfect because they literally did sum up what everyone who played rampage was thinking by this point.

And when they re-institute them (as they inevitably will) I’d wager that they’ll spin it so that they gave players time in order to level up and gain a competitive edge before providing new players the “choice” to catch up to the veterans without being at a disadvantage.

You missed him already one reply above you. Though in all seriousness I don’t really care as long as the core concept is there. The turning into humans part I think only existed as a means to eat your friend after you punched each other repeatedly.

Allright, for the first time in an eterinity I’m looking forward to a video game movie. Because this one took the most basic of concepts so there is almost nothing you have to be faithful to aside from “giant animals destroy a city” (which lets face it is a genre unto itself anyway) and just ran with it knowing fully…
