I mean I did say that transformative pieces are fine, and posing and putting a model in a new setting and creating original renders almost certainly qualifies. They also don't affect the sales of the original product negatively. I mean, porn parodies and machinima and the like have been accepted as fair use for decades so I don't exactly think that you're understanding even the very basic elements of my argument; ie. Taking an image file which had a monetary cost, not editing it at all, and then using it in your own work is different than using an asset or character or setting in a new and transformative way.

Your comment reads like a gotcha, but it seems like you just got yourself, y'know?




nope, still wrong. you can make a model based on a character, but models ripped from games are stolen. they have demonstrably taken down SFM porn because of this. now considering how big of a company blizzard is i'm going to assume this made it through multiple fact checks beforehand. so i guess you're still an armchair lawyer.

I played some minutes. The narrative is fun and the WoW music is nostalgic. But, like other ppl already said, the animations could be skipped. Nonetheless the game is definetely worth a try =D

Thanks ^^, you know, my first idea was that or make them shorter but then I thought: "Nah, who will skip the porn?" "People will complain if I make them shorter" apparently I was wrong. :)

1. Make the movies skipable by presing x durring the sequence
2. You could add loop option at the end of the scene sequence for more demanding players who need more time ;]

Two pretty obvious things: One, this has nothing to do with the legality of this games use of artwork or the point I was making about fair use. And two, just because a takedown or DMCA is filed doesn't make the content unlawful. If you believe that all DMCAs are levied in good faith then you are both blind and naive. The fact is, a big company like activision blizzard threatening legal action is usually more than enough to get the other side to back down. Websites that host the content make very little money per video upload and aren't going to spend tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars on a court case, and a smalltime parody porn renderer isn't going to have the resources to fight it in court.

But none of that changes the law. If they are taking an asset, adding to it and modifying it, putting it into a new situation and context, and creating a transformative piece of work then it's fair use. If they fought the suit they would probably win, but the cost of the suit would be hundreds of thousands of dollars in order to protect their ability to make a couple of hundred bucks per video (that they probably already got paid for). It's easier just to use different characters.

Heaps of youtube videos that review movies have been hit with DMCAs over showing freely available promotional footage in the context of a movie review, and most of them get taken down. It's obviously fair use, but youtube are a corporation that looks out for fellow corporations.

So I guess you're still an armchair naive-person.

Anywho, you are veering this away from the topic at hand. My point stands, this game is not fair use and in no way benefits the creators of the stolen art, while other games shared here often do.

If you want to debate this further please dm me. I'd be happy to talk to you more if you feel it would be beneficial.

Guys , keppler666 already made a few games, check them out, he is really talented.

p.s ignore the haters, they're just here to hate.
Churning out a weekly RPGM game, based on a single set of search tags, order:score, using stock graphics otherwise, does not talent make.

This game is insanely good. I don't remember last time when i touched myself on noname55's animation. But with added dialogue, even animations i thought were kinda meh become good. Great game!

It's interesting. With skippable cutscenes I'd be more willing to try this further than what I played. Definitely some cool mechanics though.

Idk, I used your save and I was able to climb, try to point to the arrow, sometimes the diagonal movement don't let you use that event cuz is like you were using 2 frames but shouldn't be an issue at least for me works, here's your save.
