Valve had an opportunity to profit off of these jewrats trying to sneak behind their backs and decided they were better off just slitting the jewrat's throat, fuck the potential income, because working with them would only encourage more jewrats.
I genuinely don't understand how anybody could be mad about this.

If valve had cut them off right away on day one then they would hardly have lost anything at all and could just make another attempt down the line with no real harm to their business but now they're actually going to feel this loss. You know they're never going to try to pull this shit again, not with valve at least.

Friendly reminder that the tendies trying to use this to shit on valve, because they're completely desperate for anything, are massive hypocrites.

>Why is the Nemesis System the example people always go to for this?
It's less the system and more the principle behind patenting game concepts. Warner hasn't even used the Nemesis system since the last Middle Earth game came out in 2017, yet nobody else in the industry except them gets to use it just because they own exclusive rights to the mechanic.

If you want to see how cancerous these kind of laws are, just look at the US healthcare industry. Half the reason drug prices are so expensive here is because the patents granted to these corporations means they're given a monopoly by the government and can just charge whatever they want because there's no competition.

>Company figures Valve aren't the type of company to mind something as simple as a case for their $1000 box being a fun idea based on one of their properties
>"REEEEEE YOU ARE NOT PERMITTED TO SELL A CUBE CASE WE OWN THE RIGHTS TO CUBE AND WHILE WE'LL NEVER DO THIS OURSELVES WE REFUSE TO LET YOU DO IT"
>I'm expected to side with Valve
Let's be fucking serious for a moment here. Sure, Valve has the legal right to do it but zero incentive. Fuck's sake man they let someone's Half-Life 2 fanfiction be sold for money on their platform just by merit of it being on the Source engine and I'd say that's far more damning. The cube was a cute idea for the Steam Machine but I guess if you bought it you wouldn't have a reason to try and get the $1,500 dollar version with a whole two fucking faceplates even if you already own a Steam Controller. You talk as though Steam hasn't already been on the downhill in terms of goodwill and it's people like you that ultimately perpetuate the idea that Valve could literally shit on you, delete your account and all your games and tell you to go fuck yourself and you'd thank them and apologize for what you surely did wrong to invoke their ire. You can criticize a company you like, that thin fucking line is what separates a true PC gamer from a console tribalist with a hole in his wallet.

This is a response to Valve taking down another company illegally attempting to sell an exact copy of one of their characters and keep 100% of the profits for themselves, by the way.

You say that like Valve would do it themselves, we both know they wouldn't and won't. The smart play would've been collaboration, to offer them an option to license for a cut of the pot. You act like Valve's doing this to make an example of them, as though an example needs to be made, as though Valve had plans. Hell, the whole reason this situation is happening is because D-Brand thought the same thing you think that Valve is "one of the good ones" and wouldn't get worked up seeing as they make skins and cases for their products all the time and the Companion Cube was a good idea for a Steam based machine that's shaped like a cube. In a world where Hunt Down the Freeman was allowed to exist despite how damning it is narratively and functionally I do not buy the whole "Valve are the good guys here protecting their valuable IP!" schtick.

This isn't a giant company (valve) going after a small operation (dbrand), like when nintendo takes down modders that are usually teams of 1 to 5 people from making a fan mod.
Dbrand is a huge company, so if they make products with valve's assets, it'll show that valve is not (legally) protecting their ips, which allows other companies to follow suit and rip their shit. If valve tries to do something then, the legal argument could be made that they didn't do anything about it earlier, so they're picking and choosing who they go after, and it just becomes a whole mess.

Also, Dbrand is known for being a "le edgy, we're not like other companies" company. They play fast and loose all the time, and even got into legal trouble with sony over replaceable face plates for the ps5 before it evereleased. They haven't learned their lesson and are willing to burn so much money and man hours on products that can be shut down with a single phonecall. They (as a company) are a ticking timebomb and valve is smart to not want to be associated with them, in the capacity of selling anything other than screen protectors or skins.

Wow, you were given 2 chances to do the smart thing but your seethe is so strong that you came back full force desperately begging me to validate your shit taste! Amazing! All valve games are good. Literally all of them. You can look up the names of all the games Valve has made on Wikipedia.
>>
>>742233447
that and called it literally anything but the companion cube
I'd be railing against valve pretty hard right now if dbrand didn't just pull some aliexpress-ass stunt and then cried when they got called out. or if they didn't already have a reputation for doing this in the past. all you had to do was make it legally distinct. it's a cube with a heart in the middle for fuck's sake it's not that hard to change things up a lil

I have the copyright for the cover of one of my books and it's a character who dies 10 pages in and says nothing just wanted tits on the cover. No one can draw or use my character for anything that is being sold.

I even CND'd a patreon that was drawing her and locking it behind a paywall told him he could only use the character if the art was not being used for monetary gain and all had to be free, which i am surprised more people aren't doing because you can CND patreon artists for using your IP if they keep it behind a paywall.
