But I am impressed how after all these years this game hasn't been taken down due to copyright. So many awesome non-lewd fan projects have been shut down over the years, I can't believe jk hasn't taken action.

That's actually an interesting topic.
Maybe JK chose not to take an action? Because it'd be a bad PR with no profit, smth like Streisand effect?

Probably because money isn't that much - enough for those fat ass jerks who milk this piece of a product for a decade now, but not enough for people like JK to take an interest?

Or maybe because black PR is also PR? I believe there are hundreds of thousands of people who are aware of this 'game', and they were only interested in it because they still keep at least a slightest interest in HP universe. It is unacceptable for JK herself to do adult stuff, so let someone else do it.

Probably as long as this isn't a game but some funny pictures for jerking it's not a big deal. So the devs, knowing this, don't do shit deliberately. Not just because all their agenda is to earn some money as long as the current flows, then dissappear. But IF they'd do the game - questions will arise.

Also afaia some devs are Russian. Though I don't know whether they live or taking their 'production' in Russia or somewhere else, but it's probably a point too.
Also just because as long as it's not a game but

All these favorable conditions and no actual product. They don't do their game for a decade, they do nothing. That's what I find the most outrageous - they could've done a game a long time ago, but they just don't fucking want it or need it. A decade in an indie gamedev - everyone would be a professional now.

The thing is that sincere "fan fiction" is effectively always a copyright issue.

Parodies are not.

You must be registered to see the links

You have to imagine JKR and her lawyers in court, trying to prove that the scene with the MC (who is he anyways) spanking and fucking a naked Minerva was not a parody, not substantially transformative, and does not show the characters in a new light.

They might get bonus points on the question how creative their own IP is.

Then again everything in this game is hand-crafted, substantially different from the original appearance, and clearly marketed as a (porn) parody.

Lastly, the market harm. The whole Harry Potter IP has generated something like 15 billion USD in value. We're talking Star Wars levels of revenue. And you cannot prove that even a single cent would have went into buying this game, rather than a book or Blu-Ray of the original. If anything, it went the other way - games like this being free advertising for the original.

Bethesda Softworks turned Arena into Morrowind and had begun working on Oblivion in the time period that they have squandered.
