those spells are all from D&D, dipshit
Grim Dawn was a good copy of D2. D3 was a bad copy of D2.
>>3492027/thread
>>3492026You're right, there are definitely similarities between some skills in Grim Dawn's Arcanist class and Diablo 3's Wizard. Here's a breakdown of why it doesn't necessarily mean Grim Dawn is an illegal copy:>Core Gameplay Concepts: Many action RPGs share core gameplay concepts like magic missiles, teleportation, and elemental damage. These concepts are not unique to Diablo 3.>Similar Doesn't Equal Stolen: While the skills have similar names and functions, they might have different effects, damage types, and resource costs. Grim Dawn might also implement them in a different way within the overall class structure.Here's why Blizzard likely didn't sue:>Fair Use: Copyright protects the specific way something is expressed, not the general idea. These skills might be similar ideas, but their execution falls under fair use.>Competition is Encouraged: Similar games existing creates competition, which can benefit the genre as a whole.Here's an additional point:>Grim Dawn's Identity: Grim Dawn has its own story, world, and character progression system that differentiates it from Diablo 3. While some skills share similarities, the overall experience is distinct.Even though the skills have some overlap, Grim Dawn carves out its own space in the ARPG genre with its unique features.

>>3492029yes it is a good copy but was it legal
>>3492026Warcraft is an illegal copy of Warhammer, so the GD guys said they'd tell Games Workshop to sue them if Blizzard sued Crate.
>>3492026>Diablo invented ARPGs
>>3492041>but was it legalYes, because they didn't use any trademarked terms. This is why you won't see games with an enemy called "Beholder" although you might see them called "Gazer" etc.>>3492065>too young to know that what you call 'ARPGs' were originally called 'Diablo clones'
>>3492026>two games have skill called teleport>using them teleports you in both gamesWHY DIDN'T THEY SUE?
>>3492044Please, anon, everyone knows that 40k is just a Starcraft ripoff>what if we call the Zerg, uh, 'Tyranids'>how about they're uhhhh 'Eldar' instead of Protoss>okay uhhhh how about we rename Dragoons 'Dreadnoughts'Don't gaslight with your revisionist history.
>>3492026Grim Dawn's DLC added Grifts to the game. It's definitely more similar to Diablo 3 than to Diablo 2. It's also piss easy like Diablo 3 is.
>>3492026It's not even remotely similar to D3.

grim dawn is a clone of titan quest, torchlight was the diablo copy
>>3497154>grim dawn is a clone of titan questMade by the Titan Quest devs themselves>torchlight was the diablo copyMade by the Diablo devs themselves
>>3492026It's literally Titan Quest, but with niggermen instead of mythology.
>>3492026Diablo 3 was actually original, it was just bad. Grim Dawn only copied itself, it is almost exactly like Titan Quest but with expanded mechanics. It's like Titan Quest 2 but in a totally different setting and with different classes.Last Epoch is a game that copied some Diablo 3 progression mechanics.
>>3497218>Diablo 3 was actually originalRMT is not original.
