First of all, let me say, all creative people are inspired by other creative people. Assuming you're 100% on point, basing a game on three highly successful fictional endeavors is probably a very smart business model. Secondly, if you think you have the power or right to curb the creative process of others you've already been taking those crazy pills for too long. LOL Sorry I didn't mean for that to come off as critical as it sounded.
I, uhh, I just don't understand why you're telling me this at all. It reads like you're disagreeing with something, but I'm not sure what or how. So...
Yes, people are influenced by their own experiences, and weaving that inspiration into their own work is part of what we call creativity. Zanith has indeed made a good call in drawing something familiar from Tolkien: modern orcs and elves, for example. But Zanith is at least good enough at world-building that (presumably) not the entire elven culture would be lifted straight from Middle Earth. There is no reason - none whatsoever - to presume there's bad blood between elves and orcs. I mean, in Tolkien's works there are thousands of years of history of war, and orcs were literally corrupted from elves in that setting, and
god damn it, this is not a tangent I should be going on, sorry.
Anyway, after the way
princess Lyriel greeted Yona, I think it's outright ridiculous (ie, deserving of ridicule) to suggest there's some sort of race-hate going on there.
Me finding ideas that go against what the canon content shows ridiculous, is not the same as me deluding myself into thinking I have "the power or right to curb the creative process". Neither is me expressing that opinion, nor is me trying to poke holes in theories that seem to go against what we've been shown.
Sorry for the rant, but I'm really not sure what you're objecting to here, if anything, so I figured I'd at least clarify my thoughts on the matter (though reading through it, I should probably go to bed).
