That new game (which I can’t remember the name of) looked so bad in the Gamescom opening show. Very gringe.
Checks Wikipedia…
Albion is an alternative name for Great Britain.
Okay? Why don’t we just change the names of the towns and their locations on the map? Problem fixed!
Edit: Spacing.
He’s absolutely right! He’d be violating a trademark, not copyright.
Further, just because a name like that came be “copyrighted” doesn’t mean the rest of the game isn’t lmao.
If I made Nuclear D.C., a post apocalyptic game set it the Fallout universe in Washington D.C. as a followup to Fallout 3, I wouldn’t magically be okay just because it’s set in a “real” place.
lol.
When asked if he was sure that Albion couldn’t be copyrighted due to its historical context, he replied: “I don’t know if I’m honest, I don’t really know… I hope so. I mean you would think that the responsible person I should be, I would’ve spent the last six months in lawyers’ offices…”
This fucking clown…
