So how come Blizzard gets to copy Pokemon and not get sued?
because blizzard's legal team would drop a third nuke
>>720788725That's not fair. Blizzard should remove or revamp pet battling into something that doesn't break intellectual property laws of Nintendo.
>>720788725Dude, cool it with the antisemitism
>>720788693Because they have money.That's the redpill for copyright. Copyright only exists to punish those significantly poorer than the copyright holder.
>>720788725>blizzard's legal teamyou mean Microsoft's
>>720788693because the blizzard version doesn't have you throwing out an object that summons a creaturethat's whyat least read the patents
>>720788693Nintendo knows that going after big companies is a waste of money, so they will only hit indies.
>>720789948Are they the ones going after private servers recently?
>>720788693are those patents working retroactively anyway? can they stop someone who already had that "'system"" in a game?
>>720790023go back to sucking dicks on reddit
because they do a good job of making it so godamn ugly and unrecognizable i could never play this when pokemon X and Y exist
>>720788693I forgot pet battles existed lol
>>720792260chat is reading patents reddit
>>720788693bigger company, bigger fightand also more likely for them to come to an agreement behind the scenes if Nintendo even bothers to ask
>>720792219If the patent holder has more money and lawyers then yes. Patent fights nearly always boil down to who is obstinate enough.
