One question that keeps being asked over and over again, between many different boards, is "How is EA not being sued over this game?" While the overwhelming majority of these posts reference God of War, there have even been mentions of a "license" to Inferno (as a part of the Divine Comedy).
Skewed and Reviewed have written an Opinion Piece covering issues in the gaming industry, how current issues were issues years ago, and what can be done to help restore consumer trust.
Nothing. It's up to the gamers to stop consuming content from companies that they don't agree with.
How do you know if you agree with it or not unless you play it? Which without conventions forces gamers to rely on trailers. Perhaps Demos should be made more frequently. But companies need to do better as well.
But is that not what they have now? Tons of gameplay or are you talking about watching actual gamers play it versus the trailers and streams? The big issue is that some companies pay streamers and influencers and they create content but for me; that is hardly a fair, unbiased, and factual look at a game.
They usually are attached to the money sadly. It would be nice to have gamers in charge but you have so much money invested that business people are needed. Hence the issue; you need people who know business but are also gamers who know have an eye to the community. It sounds simple in theory that if you give gamers quality games that they want to play; money will be made. But that is not always so.
Marie Dealessandri speaks to Borislav Slavov and Gustavo Santaolalla about “the new golden age of games music”.
A famous actor from Starship Troopers has showered praise on Helldivers 2 and said he is open to the idea of playing General Brasch.
A license for a text that is almost 700 years old? Oh and this takes the cake: "While I'm still waiting for my copy of Dante's Inferno, I have been checking out the review sites, Achievement guides and message boards in preparation for the arrival of the game." In other words, I like to run off at the mouth about other people's experiences and not do my own research.
Someone please post something that is an example of actual news or at least has some semblance of "journalism".
I know the two titles are similar but infringement is more than absurd.
...as I am about that HAPPY video game nerd's infringement. I can only hope the angry video game nerd gave him some kind of permission
I know there is chatter about how similar the gameplay and mechanics are, but people aren't actively claiming a copyright infringement. Sounds like the author had a column he wanted to write and found an argument to justify it.
