MARATHONS ENTIRE NEW ART STYLE IS STOLEN

Artist comes forward stating Bungie stole her art for Marathon: bsky.app/profile/antire.al/post/3lpa4gamtzs2l

Its not just similar her work was cut up for the textures in game and is the basis for the entire art style

Marathons lead art director has followed her for years

1000% chance Marathons art style is entirely stolen

HAHAHAHAHAHA

God please let this be true lmao.

Are you fucking kidding me
This keeps getting better

her

she invented arrows and boxes

The tranny forum had screenshots in which the
artist says that Joseph Cross and other Bungie's employees have been following her twitter for years at this point but never been in any direct contact.
Let that sink in for a moment.

To add:
She's not the inventor of this style though,
The old (pre 2009) Designer's Republic is but I guess this is apples and oranges. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Designers_Republic

5 months to launch

would have to replace all the art if she sues

lol, lmao.

Marathon series is from 1994, literally older than the scamming bitch.

Old Marathon didn't look like the this.

retarded

Old marathon had graphics that looked something that 12 year old made in paint.

jeet devs at it again

So this game actually IS the next Concord huh?

Dont care, i want the robot girl's lips on my pp

Lmao please be real

You can't copyright an aesthetic.

copied a bunch of arrows and numbers

who cares

What are the 100000 indians even doing in modern studios if they still need to steal assets

They literally cut up her art including names and terms and plastered them all over the buildings in game.

Maybe the symbols but the yellow black aesthetic and the font on the artists work looks like a copy of CP2077 key art from a decade ago.

Stop asking questions. The future is one million imported indians using AI with a million more out-sourced indians used to correct the AI's results.

shouldnt she have waited until the game released and made profits to sue ?
what a retard.

retard

guiz art style is lel stolen look my example is feneric triangle arrow!!!!!

Get a hobby

Legally no. Bungos lawyers could walk away with a slap on the wrist saying "if she knew earlier why not say earlier?". This is american law after all.

it's just arrow-AACK

I can smell the ai containment thread stink on you.

Even funnier if they try to quietly patch it out post-launch and pretend nothing happened. PR disaster speedrun% incoming.

This games snake bitten. Its not coming out

Considering how old those posts are it's very possible that it's the other way around.

There's also to consider. They didn't just copy the font style and aesthetic, they quite literally copy pasted and recolored parts of her work that are too complex and exact to use the "Oh we were just inspired!" argument

Marathon will be a bad game but this is crying over nothing, at worst they copy pasted literal jpgs. Only idiots would say they stole the entire art style, like you OP and the person who made the claim.

pronouns in bio must kneel to their bharatian overlords

5 months to launch

Bungie bros.... we aren't going to make it, are we?

You don't know what an art style is do you? indian or wagie?

Bungie getting a second lawsuit

PLEASE LET THIS GAME BE THE END OF BUNGIE. THEY DIED AFTER HALO REACH.

"she" literally said "she" doesn't have the resources and will to sue a huge company in a follow up

Lmao
can't make this shit up.
reality is truly more bizarre than fiction.

Just call it AI and it'll be ok.

You don't know what the word "entire" means do you? ESL or down syndrome?

OH MY FAUCI THEY USED MY PICTURE FOR A TEXTURE!!!!!

*I* invented the fast forward logo

God I hope Marathon just pulls a Concord and gets removed entirely and they pull the plug. What the fuck happened to Bungie man.

Putler has fused with Satan, thus creating SUTLER

Only Doomslaya and the Doomvengers can stop this threat to democracy

Ursula Von der Leyen: Hi, Hideo. Do you have something for me?

*Ursula takes the Infinity Funko Pop*

*Sutler charges furiously at Ursula and they clash with equal power*

*Sutler uses one of his Infinity Funko Pops to attack Ursula and steal the final one*

*Doomslaya’s dragon tries to strike back at Sutler but is slain by him*

Steve: No!

BetterMan: murderer! You killed Dragorino!

Doomslaya: My friend…*furiously approaches Sutler* You killed my friend! Now how will I share his pics on r/chonkers?!!

*Doomslaya and Sutler fight brutally*

Sutler: This is your end, Slayah!!!

*Isabelle steps between Sutler and Doomslaya*

Isabelle: Slayah…forgive me.

*Isabelle is mortally wounded*

Doomslaya: NOO!

*Sutler takes the last Infinity Funko Pop*

*Steve jumps on Sutler trying to snatch the last Infinity Funko Pop but is easily defeated*

Sutler: I… AM INEVITABLE

*Sutler snaps his fingers but nothing happens*

*Steve looks at Sutler with a smile despite being badly wounded*

Steve: I… AM KYIIIIIIV

*Steve snaps his fingers, eliminating all the demons and thus saving democracy at the cost of his life*

wrong thread

Bungie really has been on cruise control and stopped caring, huh? They are begging Sony to fire them to rub it in their face what a bad deal they made purchasing them.

girl

Not really an original aesthetic (though unique for video game I suppose)

The entire point is being extremely simple and minimalistic for the most part, if they liked her art they could have done something extremely similar but just slightly changed

They could have literally contacted her and hired her to use her art

Instead literally use unchanged art as textures

Genuinely hilarious, hope she sues unless it's just elaborate bullshit and "her" art was made after these trailers. But that's also funny.

I love watching Bungie burn.

it would be even funnier if she waited to sue until after the game launched

Not really

Oh this is gonna be tough for Anon Babble. who will you side with: Indians or troons?

NOOOO WHY DO YOU USE IT

stop simping for dumb bitches just because its about a company which you hate

not really, you fucking sue those fuckers ladies!

trannies or troons?

Does it not get tiring? Pretending to be retarded on the internet?

SAAAR STOP POSTING ABOUT PLAGARISMS SAAR

not how it works

unfortunately she's retarded and says she doesn't have enough "energy" to go to court over it

indians make soulful tiktoks so them

leave the multibillion dollar company alone

kys retard, also fuck the tranny for not suing

Sirs, you lost.

Oh the indians dont like this one OP loool

Roastie slut knows she doesn’t have an argument. She’s just doing this for attention like all whores

when will they understand that for robot girls, faceplate >>>> weird synthetic facial features

millions of dollars given to bungie by sony to develop the next "big thing" for multiplayer shooters

sit on your hands for years, collecting paychecks and accomplishing virtually nothing while creating layers and layers of HR and DEI hires who have zero talent or insight

ceo of bungie posting pictures of his 2 million dollar+ vintage car collection while firing the worthless employees they cultivated to prop up this scam left and right

investors getting antsy

slap together a proof of concept based on a derivative and niche game mode that has very little room for growth with normies

steal art from small creators, make no attempt to contact them, and build your "aesthetic" off of that hoping to coast off of unlimited sony money for your live service slop produced for people you perceive to be idiots (your fanbase)

loving every laugh

The tranny is legit but is also a cuck and wont sue.

What do you think why is she not suing?

samefagging

Disgusting.

Normally I'd agree but the fakeness of the runners (the characters you play as) hit a certain autism within me with the "fakeness"

nice headcanon in your head

If I was Bungie I would be shitting myself, I'd probably want to run damage control asap with my Indian post centers.

I understand what you mean, I need to see them in motion though.
If the facial features are still or very minimally animated it can look cool, if they let them warp like skin it'd be horrible

nice cock in your ass

They're not supposed to be robot girls, they're like cloned biomechanical body shells for a copied consciousness. I see your point though.

try running that through google translate again rajesh

also its men in those bodies.

first thing what he can think about is gay sex

tranny bro...

feels good to see these awful amoral companies flounder. when was the last time any of you saw a game and a company you genuinely wanted to see succeed?

I didn't know about lore, I was going from design only. Shame if the game gets aborted, I actually like that plastic pseudo-vectorheart walking Valorant logo aesthetic

Valorant

The blatantly Valorant inspired parts of the game, like the hero shooter mechanics and the smoke nades, are easily the worst looking and playing bits of Marathon. Game was probably better before they threw the faggot Joe Ziegler on.

_____'s ENTIRE NEW ART STYLE IS STOLEN

You'd be surprised be surprise, but I never did like it. It's exactly like what leftist game developers thought that the fellow kids thought was cool and 'hip' before 2K and 40K.

In conclusion, it's Concord 2.0 to me but even more lost, and it's a prequel to Intergalactic: Tribute to Self Hating Writer.

A Fire Warrior remake would be sick, but new game developer blood would be sicker.

Failed thread killing reply

Why is Bungie Defense Force so angry

Maybe they were just using it as a placehoder during the alpha and hoped nobody would notice?

This work was outsourced to india.

I've been seeing this a lot, but Marathon comes out in four months. If the original artist hadn't said anything, would Bungie have changed any of the assets?

placeholder

for trailers

for cinematics

for gameplay

???????????????????????????????????????????????????

I think it's time to admit that Sony beclowned themselves. Look at all the failures. Concord. All the cancelled live service games. Marathon's disappointing reveal that people prefer Arc Raiders over it. Jade Raymond leaving Fairgames to fend for themeselves. The whole Bungie acquisition. They got fleeced for all their money and they barely have anything worth showing for it all. This has to be the saddest investment to result in Sony's history so far.

Marathon's disappointing reveal that people prefer Arc Raiders over it.

I've been watching a shit ton of Arc Raiders videos (since it looks like an actually interesting game and i'm an extraction shooter fag) and tons of Youtubers are throwing shade at Marathon in their videos, comparing graphics and game feel. It's really not a good look for Bungie to be getting shown up like that, lol.

i like the art style, very Cyberpunk-apology tour chic

lol

Bungie's gonna die isn't it?

can you tell us more about what this concept you coined "graphic realism" is all about?

yeah, uhm, well, as you can see it's "graphic" and "realistic" something something world class design team

*aggressive 35yo hat-sporting skinnyjeans-wearing norwood5 millenial bugman nodding*

Wow...so you're saying literally nothing about this game is good

Incredible

this is just embarrassing

?Bungie's been dead since gaylo reach?
Nobody of value left at the company, those who made the brand are long gone? Can you stop being fucking niggercattle and think critically for once? Fucking die please

the thing people though was a clever reference to the Aleph One sourceport was actually just shamelessly, soullessly stolen from an entirely unrelated poster some artist made

If this isn't a perfect microcosm of NuBungie as a whole, I don't know what is.

Destiny is good

HAHAHAHA FUCKING AMAZING
DIE BUNGIE DIE

lmao being a tranny is literally more dignified of an existence than whatever you're suffering through

It's not dead till the company itself shuts down. Sure spiritually its dead but no one not on this retarded Mongolian basket weaving forum gives a shit about soul.

If Destiny is so good then how come Warframe is going to outlive both Destiny games?

Coincidence and a petty common name. That's what I call my wheelbarrow.

Good thing she publically admits she can't take them to court because she doesn't have the money then, eh?

Loss is the lynchpin to a big budget studio's plagiarism

Truth is always funnier than fiction

He can't keep getting away with it!

It's a pity you can't just crowdfund her case to fuck bungie

I'd honestly pay to see the trial where a lawyer has to explain loss to a judge.

We're separated from merely a handful of IQ points yet talking down to you feels like suffering
Fuck I fucking hate you clowns, kikes have the right idea about us all, wipe it all out tikun olam

God, like look at the Marathon art style thread on Jospeh Cross's twitter (art director for marathon). Literally reads exactly like this.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
Bungie is fucking shameless

Surely the artist can get some laywer to do this pro-bono for the E X P O S U R E (and a part of the money obtained from a settlement).

fucking stellar.

ANTIREAL DAILY SERIES

Holy shit, it's literally just the original artist's art but with their watermark (very very poorly) smudged out. How is this fuckign real?

If this is real, it's incredibly brazen on Bungies part. She could sue and force them to pay out the ass and potentially remake the artstyle of the entire game.

You're just living in the future where they are actually dead and not just dying. It's a strange situation but with enough drugs anyone can tell the future. Either that or you're one of those types who thinks that if they believe something hard enough then it's true. But that'd just be sad.

If the shit in the OP is everything they'd just have to change a few textures, it's not such a huge deal

So they've apparently done this multiple times in the past. You can Google the time they stole some guys nerf gun design and ended up having to pay him off.

if there was a successful lawsuit it wouldn't just mean they'd have to blur out the logos. They'd have to get rid of the whole artstyle

Well, I did more or less paraphrase their direct dialog from like 2 hours and 10 minutes into their reveal livestream so...
youtu.be/t3ZO8tbmCvc?t=7829

I haven't seen such humiliation in so long, it didn't even register he called their cancerous garbage a direct evolution of the original series a few minutes later

he thinks it'd take five months to replace the art

It'd be two weeks, maximum.

Why? You can't really sue over an artstyle. That shit looks cyberpunk-generic enough. The parts of the images that were blatantly copied are a different thing.

reddit Anon Babble both places where jannies kneel to higher causes

I mean a lawyer could do it pro bono/on comission of winning, but apparently the ones in Scotland(?) aren't doing that.

the fact that parts of it are undeniably stolen means that the entire artstyle can be considered infringement, as the artstyle is based off of the copied material

Reminder the only reason this website has "copyright" protection for images is because ubisoft was literally shilling too hard

Between this and Bungie getting fucked in some bullshit lawsuit solely because they deleted their own content from the game it all feels like some form of cosmic justice

put triangle inside square

this is my art style

whole thing is pretty funny

Is the Bungie acquisition one of the worst acquisitions of all time?

holy fuck kek I believe it. that's amazing

It's not the first time Bungles done it. Many such cases (#SAD!) in Destiny.

Bootlicker

unique

was already done by wipeout 30 years ago

?

Some parts being stolen doesn't mean that the entire thing was stolen. In the examples provided in the thread it looks distinct enough. Proving that parts of the images were blatantly copied is easy enough. Hell, it's most likely just some lazy fucker copying some images off the internet. Arguing that the entire "style" is copied is significantly harder. And what the fuck is style, anyway.

Isn't there a big difference between artistically recreating a similar piece vs literally copy pasting entire sections of someone's art?

This. Copy pasting art you have no permission to use into the game is such an incredibly retarded move, especially when you are already plagiarizing the entire style.

What the fuck was their endgame lmao

What a strange timeline we live in.

Easily. Even at the time many folks were like "what the fuck? why???" They haven't been relevant since Halo and even THEN they were notorious flying-by-the-seat-of-our-pants up to the eleventh hour on the series and SOMEHOW making enough of decent multiplayer shooter to have people invest in three titles (well, 5. But we don't count ODST, Reach in this).

Once she realizes pursuing this is free money, it's over
Kill Bungie

she should be encouraged to sue them after latest bungie legal battle

it was done by designers republic, wipeout devs just contracted them

no I'm laughing at this tranny and their "art"
Bungie can rot in hell just like you, illiterate nigger

The guy that did it probably got a bonus for finishing all his work quickly before all the other 'artists'

i hope the CEO that collect cars its catched in that train accident dying worse than paul walker

Some parts being stolen doesn't mean that the entire thing was stolen

some parts being stolen means that the artstyle in general can be considered to be stolen. If it was just the same artsyle with no examples of explicit copy/paste they could get away with it. People use similar artstyles in different media all the time.
The fact that they literally copy/pasted parts of it means that the strong similarities of the artstyle can also potentially be considered to be stolen. It would not be enough to just remove the blatant parts, because copying has already been demonstrated.

inb4 "it was all just placeholder we weren't going to really use it"

Doesn't matter because they didn't take inspiration from her designs, they literally used her designs as decals.
Just because of that, the designer has the precedent to say that all of Marathon's design language is plagiarized.
They are fucked, they can't change the design language so the designer is going to get a huge payout. I saw the twitter post and saw how they claimed that they don't have the resources or energy to persuit legal action but if I was a lawyer specialized in IP law I would be begging them to represent them. Easiest million dollar suit of my life.

ok bootlicker

I'm like 99% sure these exact examples are just the devs being insanely incompetent rather than purposeful plagiarism. They probably just had a shitload of loose images floating around fileshares or passed around as 'inspiration' and examples of what the style should look like. Then years later some artist finds a cool image that looks like that, and has 'Aleph' written on it and probably just assumes someone internal made it and throws it on some environment texture. The series of squares with symbols also has what looks like a ghost symbol from Destiny.
That being said, pretty sure the art director should be in some fuckin hot water because they clearly got more than just vibes from this artist - the end result should not have been so blatantly similar as to make it reasonable for a low level artist to reasonably guess an art piece was internal.

Reminder that bungie has a history of doing this exact shit and then paying the artists some money when they get caught. I wonder how much shit they c stole and got away with.

Exactly. It's one thing to draw inspiration from a style and imitate it (badly or not), but they took her art verbatim and stuck it in the game.
The artist now has a one-in-a-million chance to make it big, maybe back then she didn't think too much of those posters but now's the time.

This is the retarded part: what kind of a mongrel simply copy pastes someone's work? They could have re-arranged them at least and that would have taken 10 minutes per piece.
This is ridiculous.
Bungie will claim it was some of their "contractor" and all this happened against their "better judgement".
Activision has been copying artists' character designs off internet too...1:1 copies.

LOL No.

Last good Bungle game was Oni.

I know the artist is a tranny because the spastic freak in this thread really likes mentioning the

her

part whenever fucking possible.

Reverse image search exists for a reason. They could've easily stumbled upon the artist's portfolio if they used it.

marathon

bsky

>>>her

lol

I have no words. A gorillion dollar company, owned by one of the largest media corpos in the world (Sony) and they have to steal from some random tranny on twitter, because all the money in the world can't buy them enough brains to realize that you need to hire talented people to make good games.

Probably, like MS purchasing Bethesda for 7.5 billion got them:
Deathloop: not massive but 5mil players isn't small desu
Ghostwire Tokyo: 6mil players
Hi-Fi Rush: 3mil players
Redfall: Unknown but described as 'minimal'
Starfield: 15mil
Indiana Jones And the great circle: 4mil players as of the end of january so about a month post release.
Oblivion remastered: 4mil players after 3 days
Doom Dark Ages: just came out today not counting pre-order period.
Then you've also got stuff like ESO which does decently well.

Sony Bought Bungie for 3.6 bil or about half of Bethesda's cost and has gotten continuing sales from Destiny 2..... Marathon is the first release post-purchase.
Honestly i wouldn't be surprised if MS is relatively happy with Bethesda, it's not as great of a deal as it'd be if ES6 or Fallout 5 had been released most likely, and a lot of those players are probably on game-pass but that's probably fine with MS

Sounds like he's too poor to sue them, maybe a lawyer will take it on a no win, no pay basis. Marathon is doomed, I thought the graphic design and art direction was pretty good and gave me some faith it could be rescued after the original director was forced out but then it turns out they ripped it off.

anon thinks you can sue a multimillion dollar company and walk away victorious even if you're completely in the right

Not a chance lmao. She's smart for not sueing. Bungie has enough money to draw out the lawsuit until anyone who isn't a millionaire runs out of cash

You can't really sue corporations, they just hire scumbag lawyers and collude with the judges and courts to draw out the lawsuit until you run out of money

bungie seems to have a problem with their artists copying fanart and needing to give payouts over it
I don't know how they keep letting this happen. They're clearly employing people in the art department who blatantly copy and so far have been happy to just give small payouts whenever it becomes an issue. But this time it's much too far

this is one of the few situations where people should pay for her legal fees

How lazy do you have to be to steal some primitive symbols, triangles, etc.? Lol. Things you can do in seconds in an image editor.
It just goes to show what a fraud this games industry is. If they fired 75% of all the people involved in this area, there would be no impact at all.

she

they

go back and stay there

*her

That's just the nu-battletech logo

It took me half an hour to figure it out.

SANJAYYY, RAAKESSH!! IN MY OFFICE RIGHT NOW! BRING SANDEEP IN HERE TOO.

Sar they are in India branch

SEND AN EMAIL OUT I WANT THIS IN THE MEETING TOMORROW.

Sar they only speak Punjabi they do not listen to the needful

POOJITA GET OUT OF MY OFFICE.

Sometimes I wonder if everyone died (in 2012?) and ever since then we've been ghosts who don't know we're dead, and that's why reality keeps getting crazier and crazier.

Bungie is currently in the middle of a court case that they might lose because they sunset their fucking game

Destiny 2 itself is in a shit state and upcoming content looks like utter slop

People have already been shitting on Marathon nonstop and it has zero hype

Now this

Bungie might actually be done for

There's lots of internal politics going on, Bungie have to achieve certain targets for the management to get paid from the takeover deal. The Marathon got director got pushed out and there's speculation it's being deliberately sabotaged

SAR INDIA IS LION NEVER ACCUSE US OF PLAGARISM AGAIN YOU BLOODY BASTERD TRAN NEE

post the era thread

Bungie will claim it was some of their "contractor" and all this happened against their "better judgement".

If you consider that most of the outsourced workers are in India, it may well be true. Scamming seems to be in their blood.

it's a different story for this sort of thing. You absolutely can sue big companies for copyright infringement and win, or more likely they'll settle, in this case for big money because it's not just one art piece but the entire aesthetic
lawyers will beg to represent her for free because of how easy this suit would be

damn, i thought all the "trans this" "trans that" was overblown when people were calling marathon a "tranny artstyle"

guess i was the wrong one
i'm not as well versed on transvestites as the rest of you
good job autists, i should have appreciated your pattern recognition skills more

Wouldn't the opposite be true? If we were all dead, everything would have stagnated. Nothing new to get outraged at if it were true, at least.

I still don't understand...

Imagine being so butthurt that Bungie is going to sweep the genre that people have to come up with blatant bullshit like this to try drag them down. I can't wait for the stream tomorrow where they BTFO this loser for faking it.

So many sour grapes from devs desperate to catch up now they know Marathon is going to be the fortnite of extraction battle shooters.

some people have the They Live glasses but for trannies and we need to listen to them

If we were all dead, everything would have stagnated

But lots of people do talk about how culture has stagnated.

Marathon didn't steal shit from her. This is a generic minimalist artstyle of that has been used by hacks for at least over decade. Back in 2017 when she created all that slop, I had already by then, saw a bunch of shit using that style. The only thing that's actually worth giving a shit about is why would anybody create disgusting vomit like this.

we don't want to be know as the company that only does Halo, we can do better

utterly and completely shit their pants multiple times over the course of nearly 15 years

should've stuck with Halo, shouldn't have fired Marty
simple as

at least look at the thread longer than 5 seconds before posting

What about the direct copy/pasted art that's in the game?

yes,at some point you can just tell from a glance
the shapes,colours,themes are used in certain ways

Cultural stagnation isn't death; it's more than obvious just how rotted everything's become, but that too is an indicator for life. Fungi are living, after all. Shame no one's having fun.

Again? lmao

file.png - 1048x1181, 1.21M

Marathon's art director, Joseph Cross, and other Bungie people follow them on twitter and have done for years they claimed. It's very clearly directly lifted.

They LITERALLY copypasted shit you dumbass

How the fuck are some squares, numbers and arrows an "art style"?

> 37

Aw shit I copied his style

This is what Activision said when they copied that one panda (or some animal) costume character for CoD year ago or so. Some guy had identical character on his portfolio.

I mean if they were competent they would have carefully tagged any 'inspiration' stuff in a way that could not be confused for internal documents. But that ship sailed quite a ways back.

Average speedreader.

look at the thread you fucking mongoloid

nothing burger
Is everyone who paints in other's style now a thief?

Bungie got fucked by mememagick
Incredible.

they even plagiarised the loss rune

lmao

It's one guy spamming the same shit. Some kind of bungie defense force was activated

with their watermark (very very poorly) smudged out.

Maybe it was copied by AI. I've seen AI generated images accidentally leave in smudged text from the real images that were processed to make it.

its much more than just style now

bungiek.jpg - 689x939, 150.03K

dumb fucking porchmonkey who can't read or look at a fucking image, what a concept

serious question
if the game wasn't being sold, then what is the problem? it's a placeholder asset that will not be used commercially at release. the art style itself cannot be copyrighted so I don't see how this could ever go to court

bungo is shitty but this wasn't illegal (yet)

The only reason Kojima didn't get sued for Metal Gear was because the escape from new york creators liked it

Why do Bungie shills have literal stockholm syndrome? They are legitimately some of the worst shills out there

BUM TICKLEY JUST KILLED A MAJOR GAME STUDIO

arent they redesigning everything because of the poor response to the beta?

ya but in other parts it's not smudged at all my bets that at least some people were aware that it was stolen

bsky

her

As long as they remove most the name it's fair use

>AI steals from others to make it AI slop

AI IS THE END OF ART

big gaming corpo who makes games does it

it's ok cause... IT IS!

you all deserve this.
you deserved to be taken advantage of cause you're all a bunch of hypocrites

Tell that to Nintendo lol

It's coming out in a few months because they won't sink more money into it, it's not going to drastically change it's visuals in that time

in 5 months? No that wouldn't be possible. At best they'll redo some UI and push some post-release content forward

False.
The only thing you have to prove is intent. By literally copy pasting the designer's art and using it as assets, you can prove that the whole design language of the game was stolen from the designer's work.

If trans people are so cringe then why do you have to defend stealing from them. I guess they're the only ones who can innovate?

mfw I participated in the earliest loss threads and lived long enough to see this

just kidding
there is no contortion of my face that can qualify those underlying emotions.

Open AI is facing multiple lawsuits because AI is also theft that gets away with it under the guise of "innovation"

doesn’t AI alter the pics in some way? i don’t think it does exact 1:1 copies like this shit

pajeet dalits paid to shill the game ALWAYS start attacking everything and everyone when they are called out

Like clockwork. Every game they are shilling, every product the third world is paid pennies to shill they roam the threads in anger and frustration when their super power India work is called out for being shit and fraudulent.

For me it's mostly just incredulous laughter
Also I feel extremely vindicated that I was never a fan of any Bungie game

Artstyle can't be copyrighted only specific designs
You can't start a case of copyright infringement until a copyright has been infringed upon. The game while in alpha is not a commercial product, so while the artist can request the stuff be removed, I don't think a court can get involved when nothing has been illegally sold yet

the same design language i have refined for the last decade

design language

i.e. it's a nothingburger and he's just another schizo latching onto something popular

This is why the new Marathon looks so fucking garish and grotesque, huh?
They had no original ideas, so they just aped some chick's whole art portfolio.
About what I'd expect from the hacks at Bungie.
We already know the playbook, too. Blame a contractor, slightly alter assets, and then call it a day.

They hate western trans women most of all because they are white and american

truth_nukem.jpg - 1200x888, 248.34K

See

They took the term "ALEPH"

Copyright protection exists from the moment a work is created and fixed in a tangible form, Mr Dunning Kruger.

yeah but we are in the "cease and desist" stage of things, not the "sue you for infringement" stage

It has to be fucking chatgpt bots. Nothing else could be so retarded and blind to the BLATANT stealing. Bungie left a watermark in the assets they stole. They are fucked

i don't
nobody wants a fucking Destiny extraction shooter

but the "artist" is grasping at straws claiming they stole his style

click on their website

it really is stolen

I knew there was something wrong when bungie reps were unironically saying that nike and other equally meaningless comparisons were inspirations. That's wild though I would sue their asses off for that. Joseph Cross entire account is shitty photobashed crap so now it's really not surprising.

Where the fuck did I say it was okay you brainlet?

see

JEJ

Aleph is a hebrew word/letter, and not an uncommon term. Aleph One, the engine made for playing the Marathon games on current systems, for example of another use of Aleph. Not saying they didn't plagiarize the shit out of that image because I have eyes, but I'm betting whatever dipshit did it saw 'aleph' and just assumed it was a reference to aleph one and slapped it on a texture without even realizing.

Yeah they can get out of it if they bother to change it but it's bad PR

okay fine you won
if this is real it's funny as shit

this is why companies just go ai

if it was just aleph that might be fair but the Dark space haulage logistics is also copied over.

Not only did they steal the artwork, the game itself looks like absolute shit.

it's incredibly brazen on Bungies part

No, if it's real then it was the art department who messed up. Specifically the intern who made all these stupid texture work.

AI is also theft that gets away with it under the guise of "innovation"

can now make almost any picture that you want, in any style and even realistic

can make realistic videos do anything

'guise of "innovation"', do you not see the progress of AI slop?
what most of you fail to see is that we're at the start of an AI golden age, yet you're all blind and cynical to understand how amazing this progress is.

Ponder7.png - 1227x1566, 3.78M

this,pandora's box is open

pos company. mass layoffs plxz

I agree with this take. However, they couldn't make their own assets? Having the watermark is fucking insane. They even did it right in the website by changing the symbols.

BUNGIE TOP INDIAN OUTSOURCING

It's a glorified search engine. If copyright and trademark laws are more strictly enforced against AI companies the usefulness will be massively reduced. Google is worse now because they force shitty AI summaries to the top.

Surely it wouldn't have been any faster to steal that. It's literally just text. But they just removed the backing color and copy-pasted it.
Yeah that's the thing. The could have just ripped her off and she couldn't have proven anything. It's not that distinctive but they literally just pinched it.

it's probably straight up placeholder art because the actual art team hasn't done shit yet. that's why so much of their playtest was literally untextured.
it looks bad for them but I seriously doubt it was going to launch like this, but who knows?

HELLO SAAR!

Again, clueless retard, using stolen art to promote your works is grounds for copyright infringement.
Promotional work is also copyrighted, which is the exact same reason why trailers include copyright and trademark disclaimers on them, it's to imply that the assets shown in the video belong to them.
And again, Marathon's game has a clear aesthetic that is shared with the stolen artwork. The fluorescent design, the glitchy and scattered symbols, the terminal-like aesthetics. Sure, Marathon isn't the first of its kind to do this but by using stolen material, they shoot themselves in the foot, now they can't claim that it's just a coincidence.
Any competent IP lawyer could create an extremely competent case to claim that the whole design language of Marathon was plagiarized.

It's not even AI it's fucking pajeets copy pasting shit and not having the IQ to understand why they shouldn't be scamming and stealing art.

x.com/josephacross/status/966233873339371520/photo/1

uhhh his inspirations include apple tvs 'foundation' and specifically the live action GitS movie not the icky anime EW

you just wouldn't fking GEt it man you don't get what it's like to be a serial plagiarist I mean industry art director

The absolute funniest part of this is that the artstyle was one of the few things shills were defending so vehemently

They went from 1600 employees in mid 2023 to 850 by October 2024. Once Marathon is shut down following a disappointing launch (if it even gets that far at this point, it's entirely possible Sony decides that paying the legal fee for stolen art is going to cost them more than just not releasing the game) Destiny 2 is the only reason to keep employees on at all and i can absolutely see Sony just shutting the studio down and pawning that off on someone else.

Aleph One is also a math term. Set theory garbage, though.

Oh shit it's Billain the neuro dnb producer

Is it all over for Bungie if this bombs like Concord?

how much of the directly copied work appears in the official trailers and not as textures in the ugly alpha?
of course, with a decent lawyer, it could easily be argued that ALL of the alpha was "promotional material" because they did streamer deals.

In the end, I still don't think a court would take the case. certainly not most lawyers when they see who the opponent would be

you can't steal an artstyle, dumb tranny

There will be a big restructuring with Sony getting more control. The management are trying to trigger certain revenue goals from the Sony takeover so they can get paid and quit. A lot of bungie devs have already been spun off into Sony

A multi-billion dollar company who's future success depends on the result of this game which already had mixed reception from their would-be buyers?
Easiest settlement of their life.

My thought as well. This fucking site is literally filled to the brim with jeets and their shitty LLMs.

agree brother, now to see how this all turns out.

glorified search engine

not even AI it's fucking pajeets copy pasting shit

the pic i posted was made in 30sec and a few loras.
But you prove what I said, you're uneducated and too cynical to see progress.
you zoomers haven't seen much progress in your life so make sense your simple and unfocused minds can't comprehend this.
maybe do some self study or read a book?

file.png - 832x1216, 1.25M

Shut it down

They are pajeets defending their brothers, they have no idea on how law works and why this can end up in an expensive settlement for the author. The pajeets don't have such laws to get punished with, that's why they steal and scam so much similar to their neighbors and the entirety of SEA and China.

why lie when she's confirmed she doesn't have the money to go to court against Activision/Bungie over it you dumb fucking nigger monkey

They stole the literal assets

true. I think they have a strong defense in the fact that it was supposed to be under NDA and it was only lifted at the last second. The case would come down to whether the alpha is promotional in nature or not, because that would make it commercial use of the artwork without permission.
Bungie can say "we weren't going to let people stream for THIS EXACT REASON" or whatever, and the other side would have to prove that it was effectively a commercial for the product regardless of Bungies intention

but realistically, you're right it would be an easy settlement

There's something about this that looks fucked, not sure if its the elf ears under headphones, the ankles being screwed up or that her face looks like it's done in a different art style or at least it's way lower fidelity than the rest.....

What are you talking about? There's a direct, indisputable link to the artist's copyright. Anything downstream from that is poisoned. This isn't a single accidental asset, but several, and it being "priomotional material" is irrelevant. You're using someone else's copright for commercial gain.

AI is a disease on all social media sites. Fake girl accounts to bait boomers, every news post full of chat bot replies and engagement farmers. India and Israel must be banned everywhere, we learned that from the basedjak takedown

I bet the inbox is filled with DMs from lawyers that want to do it pro-bono and just get paid until the settlement.

Sorry I was kinda continuing a thought from a previous post without indicating - I think someone internal just didn't know they were plagiarizing because of shit tagging, they probably just thought someone else made up a fake company named 'aleph' as an easter egg and did no due diligence. Though with the other block where they wiped off the 'antireal daily series' it's a little harder to believe the idea of them not knowing what they were doing. I can still fathom it - "Antireal" to me does not immediately say, "that is some artist's name" and they slapped that really generic rectangle + 28 on a lot of places, so wiping the specific text off would allow it to make more sense plastered on multiple pieces of unrelated equipment as a generic 'aesthetic texture'. Still - that's a stretch, this all just looks bad and probably is bad.

two arrows in a generic font/typesetting

NO ONE HAS EVER MADE THIS BEFORE

You guys are so desperate, you'll take anything. this is like Lindsay Lohan trying to claim she's the poster whore in Gta V

They straight up just made the whole game's art direction based on the assets they stole. No wonder it never felt like Marathon.

Amazing, so that's how creatively bankrupt the skinwalker that's replaced Bungie is.

What a load of bullshit. They can just scruff off the obvious copypasta and replace it with something else. The icons are simple and pretty much meaningless. They are used in boxes ffs.

no fucking way

please fucking stop with your chatgpt prompts bungie nobody likes it

The image looks shit and is instantly recognizable as AI generated. Only retarded boomers would not identify it from the eyes and text straight away. It also lacks soul because it's a mash up.

the promotional material part is extremely relevant because games sometimes use copyrighted material as placeholder assets. It's only a problem when people start looking at it and it becomes part of a future sale. If there was a picture of Homer Simpson on the menu of an unreleased game, FOX wouldn't be suing over it until it's being sold for money or advertised

oh no no no

So if the retarded tranny doesn't want to sue, is this just a giant nothing burger?

Fuck off with your google translator pajeet.

Since it's such an obvious infringement, shouldn't there be countless lawyers lining up, salivating to do the case for her, and incentivizing her to take them by doing the whole "you don't pay if you don't win!" bit.
Their payment will just be a portion of the settlement.

the yellow graphic style looks very late 90s Namco

No retard, because by stealing those designs they set the precedent to make a case to claim that the design language of the stolen material poured over the entirety of the game's aesthetic.

Exactly, but that's if it remained INTERNAL -- which it didn't. Unless you're going to argue that by being in the beta you became a contractor and thus an employee of Bungie.

this may still happen if a lawyer hears the story and thinks they can write up a strong enough complaint

exactly

A little wipeout maybe

Think of the blow to their PERCEPTION wowzers

I think that's an argument that's been used before but that was generally in reference to leaking stuff

right, which is why I think their streamer deals would be a strong argument in favor of it being unlicensed promotional use. I don't know how Bungie would be able to spin it otherwise

It certainly doesn't help, people were already disinterested in the game.

it's copying and pasting

I like how alt-right faggots like you come at it from a completely different perspectic than leffty artists, yet you still believe the same myths about the diffusion process. it learns how to recreate an image of an apple, it doesn't have terrabytes of reference images of apples that it chooses, generative models are small as fuck. fucking retard

Still bad PR and the game is going to flop because it's being rushed out with 3 maps for $40

Remember when the Heineken texture was in Dark Souls 2 and all that happened was they quietly removed it? You fucking drama queens.

Never played the game, but I like the tie in music video
youtu.be/PHMzCpy0fXc

Just admit being stupid as fuck

Stock photos are usable under license though. Bioware probably paid to use that.
Which was a stupid decision but at least how that process is supposed to work.

The reception to the actual game has been extremely mixed, with most defenders pointing to the art style and the "potential" for Marathon to be a uniquely told story through the extraction shooter genre. Turns out the art style is stolen and nobody actually gives a fuck about the story. A controversy this bad and widespread this close to release is awful for Marathon and Bungie.

nigger, it's generic future shit, no one twitter tranny "owns" this art style.

I KNEEL

There are pajeets in this thread RIGHT NOW defending their brothers scamming their employers, the artists in they stole from and the people in this thread for seeing and catching them in the scam.

- me when i'm retarded and can't read

it's not perfect so gotcha!

however don't say anything that it took 30sec to make, when getting something like this would take a few days.
don't talk about how it was free to make to a person who can't draw and don't have to request a commission from a person who won't have your image in mind.
still bitch about it even though 2 years ago it was making stuff that look terrible and struggles with hands, yet today it can make amazing stuff within seconds.

now I ask you, is this AI or real?

file.png - 1439x1916, 2.85M

This doesn't alter the fate of the game one bit.

Yeah it's maybe not super original but the issue is that someone at bungie literally copy and pasted stuff from someone's twitter.
The artist couldn't have gone after bungie for looking similar, but that isn't the issue.

it's obviously AI because her shadow looks like an Eldritch horror and the shoe in the top right has insane perspective

So what're the winning lottery numbers Mr. Crystal Ball?

Anon, the game was going to flop no matter what. A controversy for a game that's already a failure is the definition of a nothing burger.

Are these people baiting or actual BDF shills? There's multiple cases of them straight up copypasting this person's art into the game yet they're saying they didn't

Anon Babble unironically defending some tranny artist

because they don't like a tortanic

wtf happened here?

least obvious img2img

Just because the hand in front has the right number of fingers doesn't mean it's not fucked up.

nobody cares about the tranny, ranjeesh, they just want to see your masters at nubungie dead and rightfully so

probably looks good on your 1366x768 chromebook

p-p-p-pls my dearest saars, i only earn 17 rupees a day and as much cow piss as i can carry home for my 47 inbred family members, we must copy paste as fast as possible saar!

jeets and llms. remember this thread whenever you're arguing with somebody on the internet. these bots can be much more convincing if they want to be. retarded redditors on r/changemyview were fooled for months by these bots.

Shit's gonna flop obviously. Some stolen assets won't play any part in it though.

export art assets to the 3rd world

they go on twitter on do greatest robbari on other people's work because that is how these subhumans were raised

What do you expect?

How great would it be to be in the meeting where everyone just freaks themselves out and shits themselves over this. I can imagine them going defcon7. Its obviously stolen. Artists steal the graphics as texture sheets then just copy them in.

I've heard of placeholder art but this takes the cake

i was about to post something like this as well
you can tell easily because of the usage of >she in so many posts
these are bot posts or genuine reddit tards

No one likes scammers. I think the art I question is kinda lame and frankly I barely consider digital to be art anyway, but bungie just stole some shit and expects to be able to sell it.

OP claims her work was copied

schizos racists turn try to claim it's AI

lol

it's not even that weird in isolation, but the fact it made it to public alpha and the game is supposed to release in just a few months, it looks really bad for them.

Not how it works zoomnigger

no you're just a retard, they look nothing alike

wtf

yes, it is, libtard. he's not going to peg you by defending him

schizos racists turn try to claim it's AI

Holy fuck it's actually a jeet KEK

It'd be two weeks, maximum.

you underestimate how lazy and drained for talent bungie has become
takes them years to make painfully obvious needed changes

Is the twitter faggot "artist's'discord raiding this thread?

Me when i can't read

I like the art.

it's AI
yet it took me 20sec to make. sooner or later they are ganna get to the point that they are impossible to tell.
still having fun making random AI slop while you all seethe about technological progression.

also AI or real?

Right you really have to scrounge up some discontented discord dwellers to find people who dislike bungie on fucking Anon Babble jesus christ are you retarded? Half the anons here wouldn't piss on bungie hq if it were on fire.

It's okay I know I make more than you little little jeet

he's a jeet, of course he is retarded

Thanks for confirming. Enjoy your raid thread.

fucking hell lmao

doubles down on pajeet insults like an autisic npc

good for you, you're still factually incorrect and have been groomed into believing it's bad just because jeets use it too

It's patents nintendo abuses, to get done for copyright by them you're using their actual characters

God I wish we had thread IDs...

It's real

AAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAH

eww that hand bro lmfao

Kek how is this real

Bitch should have waited until the game released and they couldn't "oops that was just placeholder assets" to get out of the suit.

After the last time Sony would probably shut Bungie down just to get anonymous off their back

mad that his anal bleeding infested discord got exposed

better call him a jeet or a nigger, you're losing them

this thread got fucking weird

no shit it was Ai it looked like trash

ITS OK WHEN EXPEDITION 33 DOES IT BUT NOT WHEN BUNGIE DOES IT

HYPOCRITES

Are you the same person that also calls everything a gcj discord raid on every instance too?

This isn't the first time they were caught doing this retard and they did make good with random anons. Why are so many of you so god damn stupid? You have to be Canadian

you're brown

I don't think they can use the "placeholder assets" excuse when shit has been plastered across trailers and in press kits. I don't think you can go into marketing mode with placeholder assets unless you make that incredibly clear in said marketing.

Graphic realism? More like graphic stealism

That's not how AI works

tranny

smart

not wanting attention all the time so much so he fucks up the chance for big money

crazy how you manage to be both at once

Should have waited till the game released and then sued the shit out of them

What part about "It's not even AI" did you not understand?

I knew it you are a stupid Canadian retard. It never ceases to amaze me how dumb you people are

Anon Babble

Y'all gonna suck up on both.

hacky artists dont like you to know their real inspirations because they lift it wholesale, I also though it was weird they didn't credit wipeout and designers republic and instead pretended like they were looking at F1.

Graphic realism? More like graphic plagiarism

i refuse to believe this is real

The tranny apparently doesn't want to sue at all, so now would be the best time to say this so it'll hurt the game's release sales, even if there isn't much to hurt.

Anon don't give the pajeets the time of day. They try to clear their sins from themselves through these responses while being paid to promote whatever game or product between posts.
They cannot comprehend good and evil, only that a demonic twelve armed goddess and cow is the needful.

They wasted dev time for THIS?

Left the name of the original artist on there, dumb fuck

IMG_6288.jpg - 1206x1230, 534.88K

No need, you pretending you need to organize a raid to get Anon Babble to shit on bungie proves me right. You're a shill or a newfag.

I'm sure there would be people willing to take this on for free and just have a percent of the payout. What they did was absolutely illegal and artists have gotten large settlement fees for much less.

This, they are just trying to derail you

i wasn't really feeling the art design for marathon anyway. hope they change it then. it literally looks like captcha

You can't make up this level of comedy gold lmao

yeah this is kino

oh well I'm glad I moved my eggs to the nightreaign basket a while ago.
Really wanted this game to succeed if it's worth anything.

If the tranny was yelling from the rooftops about how they want to sue and making go fund mes or whatever else I can see it, but why would a lawyer take a giant case like this if the tranny already rolled over and gave up? It seems like a very winnable case judging by this thread, but having to convince your client to sue doesn't spark hope, at least to me. At the very least I can't imagine getting a good laywer like that, but maybe I'm wrong

extracts someone else's art and zones out

What's the goal and reasoning to start this specific raid?

There is nothings wrong with this. Metal Gear Solid is copy. Contra is copy. Everything and everyone copies each other. Who cares? Fuck you. Everyone does this and now it's a problem

Blackpill me on this.

Is it really just pajeets?

Everyone ITT forgetting when Mass Defect 3 came out and Tali's picture was literally a simple edit of some supermodel's picture they snagged off Google.

The real blackpill is that you're a nigger cattle NPC

people thought this wouldn't be concord part 2

I think that was a Chinese or Korean freelancer that stole that too.

Everyone ITT forgetting

That at the very least was a stock photo they, presumably, paid for use for

I dont get it, did they sketch out a logo from the artist thinking it was a cool symbol? where is the original?

I don't think anyone forgot
Especially not the laziest fucking "three digit ayy lmao hand" shoop in human history

art director couldnt have just hired her to claim her style? is bungie that poor?

I stand corrected.

That was a stock photo retard. Was it lazy? Yes. Was it legal? Yes

OH WAOW! LE BILLAIN! LE NEUROBASS MAN!

that was one stock photo
this is the entire artstyle being directly ripped off from someone's twitter

I liked it. Wipeout and PS2 futurism vibe but another problem they have was the rendered images Joseph made in blender not matching the quality of the game. The game’s development has just been too chaotic and now it will be pushed out the door to fail.

defending this

in any circumstance ever

stillborn game stole a loss meme

kino environmental storytelling.....

would (You) sue?

If the stuff in this thread is true its an open and shut case, its free money. Bungie wouldn't even fight it, they would just settle immediately.

kek in my country this is fine and we do this all the time. There is microsoft software that I hid Disney pictures of mickey mouse in

Bungie has all the money for pajeet shills on anonymous image boards but can't afford background artists?

Yea I will defend something that wasn't wrong you dumb pajeet

she invented arrows and boxes

Normally, I'd agree with you. But those shitty Marathon devs couldn't even be botherd to mix up the order of those boxes. They used the exact same shapes and order of the boxes.

be artist who cant even get hired by the studio that wants her style

in an age becoming increasingly AI'fied

theyd be stupid not to

buying a stock photo license is legal, stealing shit like bungie does is not. learn to read you fucking nigger.

to be fair jeets are extremely cheap, a single $20 google play card buys an entire village's worth of shitposting

They only hire mentally ill trannies/women and jeets.

mfw Bungie contacts me on teams and asks me where I got those images from

india17.mp4 - 480x826, 706.14K

Yeah. Management have to hit revenue targets to get a pay out from Sony and the development team was reset half way through.

Be studio

Find art you like from a single artist

Think about hiring them

Realize it's cheaper to hire some interns and blame them for stealing her art

hope no ones notice but don't really care because you already fired the interns.

ESO is on paper the most profitable MMO of all time.

vuQjW5x.png - 754x672, 338.08K

saaarrr

Now that i certainly don't believe, WoW is easily the most profitable. ESO is pretty consistent though and has likely done well enough.

I mean it doesnt matter. you dont get to ignore plagiarism because your employees did it. do you think a judge would care?

Can someone post that image of a Discord chat, where it goes along the lines of

Hello fellow Discord raiders, can I have a quick rundown of our evil raiding plans?

Sure, let me explain our plans in excruciatingly sharp detail.

you dont need to hire them you just need to do your fucking job as an artist and make original art based on inspiration. The style isn't even original, its a refinement of designers republic's style. If they weren't incompetent they would refine it further instead of copy pasting it like lazy retards.

there is literally nothing wrong with stealing intellectual property [/spoiler[

kill yourself

They stop posting in when the thread is not in their designated shitting board too. They are cheaper than dirt.

Thank you Trump and Elon

kek, and these idiots were worried about AI stealing their work

Anon Babble talking about Disney or Marvel IPs

YES PLEASE LET US USE IT AND MAKE OUR OWN MOVIE

Anon Babble talking about some random faggot on twitter's art

NOOOOOOOOOO the art is sacred sir noooooooooooooooo no one else can use it

hypocrites

People can be worried about more than one thing.

Pretty much the same shit, AI is like a loophole in copyright law. Just train an AI on the work and generate infinite legally distinct copies.

Brb I'm going to search the tranny's Twitter feed (advanced search only) to see if I can find loss

Democrat Ted Kennedy sponsored the bill that created all these problems including introducing H1Bs

When Kojima does it, it's kino

When Blizzard does it, it's kino

When id software does it, it's kino

When Bungie does it, IT'S NOT OKAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Time to admit you're hypocritical, Anon Babble.

Malicious, incompetent retards. They destroy the past in such a way. They should all be beat.

I just mean it's funny that they were afraid AI would use their assets in generation without consent and people are stealing their assets without even changing anything

AI IS GOOD TO COPY TO MAKE MY MASTURBATION IMAGES

NOOOOOO THIS TYPE COPY IS BAD

fucking hypocrites

nobody else does this

i haven't seen a SINGLE positive message about this game
is bungie getting shut down after this one? lmao

Sony closing down Bungie would a mercy kill at this point.

did this retarded woman really publicize this BEFORE the game released? 60IQ move

My point is that companies can absolutely be dumb enough to think this will fly, and it probably would have been worth the settlement price if the game didn't look like dogshit and Sony has to wonder if the cost of the settlement out-weighs the cost of not releasing the game period.

Nobody is afraid of people stealing assets wholesale because its fucking retarded and illegal. If you aren't too lazy to sue its free money.

loss

bungie will loss millions

nobody does thi- ACK!!!!

When (actual) people say they want to eliminate intellectual property, they're talking about how academic articles are locked behind a paywall want an end to that, and regulations to stop patent trolls.
Stealing art like that is just pure fraud.

god, we regressed so hard.

If you didn't think a soulless "sequel" extraction shooter to a 90's game couldn't get worse, this latest event proves that all that qwirky art is meaningless making this game even more soulless

When is Sony pulling the plug?

this is far more transformative than what bungie did

do not post again, final warning.

This artist will just have to accept being martyred for the cause. Frankly the left needs a win, marathon needs to succeed, and this artist has to be deplatformed and made to understand they need to shut the fuck up.

white people are ok with this

Dont forget that Bungie pushed Sony to buy Firewalker studios who then made Concord.
Also Bungie has spun off multiple groups within Sony make their own GAAS games which will all flop no doubt.

Basically like idea laundering. Someone else has already come up with the results but they need to detach the concept from the author.
Someone solved this [military application] already but they are from Finland? Scrape their data and put it through our engine, silence from NVIDIA and Intelaviv hardware mode.

They copypasted entire artworks including the artist's signature you corporate bootlicking kike.

They'll keep it up a few days longer than Concord i bet. They lack the intelligence to realize it's all a waste like CA with Hyena's.
And then once Marathon is dead we can go back to shitting on Fairgame$

don't care

white people are ok with this.

WE NEED TO GO BACK.

pathetic jeet shill trying to damage control

They're smarter than the Japs with money and will just have their contracted streamers promote the game again to get as much resources back in from sales. Condord didn't have a media team on standby, expect the usual suite of streamers to promote and help launch the game.

Fairgame$ had a name change and is now Fairgame btw.

That's a cool homage, you dumb jeet.

What does this mean? What teh fuck is 'loss'?

Did Ted Kennedy force Trump to hire a bunch of Indians and put a jeetophile in charge of the admin?

not LITERALLY using the EXACT same asset

fuck off ranjesh

We capitalize "White" around these parts, jeet boy.

Transformative art. Similar, but not stealing.
Unique art of a photo isn't stealing
Okay, this one is stolen, certain parts are straight-up traced. Like the gargoyle.

Trump would not even have that option if not for Democrat Ted Kennedy

The question is whether Konami contacted TSR to ask if they could use it

They will have to legislate against it in the future or else there will be nothing stopping people running novels, films, and games through an AI, arbitrarily shifting shit with AI then releasing it as their own product. I think the future of creative media is just fucked in general. Third world scammers are going to skim off the top of any original work making the entire endeavour worthless.

labor of love vs soulless corporate plagiarism

BUCKLEY ALWAYS WINS

uh ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh

>it's ok cause... IT IS!

This is what artists say when their art gets stolen by massive game corpos

MIGRATE BUT MIGRATE LEGALLY

The great migration is to go to SEA once the USA is finished being scalped. Billionaires already have their Hawai'i and New Zealand bunkers ready to move into and their family and friends already planted in nicer areas of China, Japan etc.
Tech divas already designed tools to replace them like in the 90s when MS engineers trained their first batch of H1B pajeets and had to be forced to sign a non-compete and NDA to get their pensions and severance. Then the early 00s tech dot com crash happened because of their departure and the pajeets ruining shit.

It keeps happening every decade until it's legit unsustainable.

death penulty for bungie!

get fucked, we're not the multi-million corpo abusing it.

It's cool art, like acid art from an IDM album turned into it's own sleek futuristic world, but the artist responsible for coming up with it isn't even working on the game, it was just randomly stolen by Jeets using AI to use as a base for their shitty multiplayer shooter.

Say that to the woman who won a trial against CAPCOM because RE 4 OG.

Image clearly illustrates how they just copied and pasted the art on the logo, the only editing they did was just cropping it to fit the '4'.

They just copied the aesthetic.

later they are ganna get to the point that they are impossible to tell.

esl moment, and, by your own admission, you are just wasting your time prompting to an inferior version of something that does not exist.

what are stock photos

You're double dumb.

WHERES THE JOKE FUCKLEY
