Bungie sacrificed Marathon's old art style just to outright steal the art style from somebody else lol
Bungie sacrificed Marathon's old art style just to outright steal the art style from somebody else lol
literally who
another burner twitter thread
steal
that looks like Designer Republic's style, so actually both were "stealing"
transgenders and faggots are the best innovative artists. if they die the art will be dogshit with the quality of wojaks or Ai sloppa
In this case it's not about the style, but about literally cutting and pasting parts of the images.
Exact same reponses with minutes of every thread about this. The absolute state of shillbots.
WHAT WERE THEY THINKING? ASS!
lol everyone thought the style was shit before this. it's just it's even funnier that they stole a bunch of shit art.
This is art.
Here is my crazy prediction. Someone on the art team was fucking this tranny. To impress xie/xur they put the trannies art in the game. They had a messy breakup. Now the tranny is acting like their art was stolen as revenge.
this artist literally plagiarized tim buckley omg we need to cancel this artist
copium, you make mspaint garbo
Except that looks nothing like the actual comic, ranjesh
that's exactly what this trash looks like, troon. The fact none of you ever make it as artists is further proof no one wants your shit.
Who thought it was a good idea to lift the NDA on the alpha? That's the actual person who should be fired.
Haha, crazy situation. no defense of Bungie from me.
That said, I want to remind you Ameridarks that you count as non-white.
Burner twitter board.
This is why they would rather hire pajeets and use AI than hire real artist with original and safe brand new content for their products.
People in the club already tricked into betraying their own communities and families thinking they are special and safe from their superiors.
You're all trapped.
my favorite movie greatest robberi
youtube.com
Twitter artist guy messed with gamers. GAMERS.
Right, that's why it was silently slid into the game with no credit given.
copium, you make sovlfvl kino
Based?
Blue lips sexo
a) Assuming the stuff on the left is the original there is absolutely nothing unique about it and this style can found in tones of comics, tv shows, and films
b) While the right isnt unique or distinct either there is nothing at all in this image that proves theft. All of this looks like generic shit.
When has there ever been an instance of an artist getting their art blatantly stolen without credit (and no attempt of any kind of transformative altering) by a massive gaming corporation, and the artist goes "Haha this is okay :)"?
gcj humor
you troons could manage to make someone hate the person that saved their life with your unfunny garbage
there are also images in other threads that show they took the exact image the artist used and smudged out a few of the words, but most of it is still legible and clearly the exact same thing. Theres also a few instances of them even using the artist log in the game lmao
It was the only thing they could do, the initial reaction was already sort of divisive. Without that I doubt anybody would be talking about the game at all right now.
sexo
Marathon
Pick one
They used the exact images as textures in game.
We're never going to see Blue lips 3d model rips into blender porn now my day is ruined.
Is the sex angle the next thing you jeets are trying to push? Because nobody finds these empty characters attractive. In some alternate reality where Marathon isn't made by incompetent retards, maybe.
gcj mentioned unprompted
He's already here.
Prepare for everyone in this thread to be called a gcj discord raider.
Marathon's old art style
For reference here's pic related, one of the random pieces of Craig Mullins concept art they shipped with Marathon 2 30 years ago.
Ditch Craig Mullins just to copy+paste Tammy the Tranny
Can Bungie just die already
Hey, I made my coworkers plagiarize your work with no compensation or credit to impress you, are you impressed yet?
This theory's not very solid, anon.
nah I hate this game, tarkov is my extraction shooter of choice
I just have an unhealthy obsession with the lips of the runners, its activates my robofucking autism to an extreme degree
If you ever see "namespace" upload cock worship with the marathon girls sometime in the future, that's my commission
Money's been tight so I wasn't able to do it this comm batch, but next one for sure
People in the club
UP IN THE CLUB
I'm currently searching for this on the artist's website and I've only found one hand-drawn image in the style of this Loss at the very start of the website, but it doesn't have Loss in it
antireal.info
The problem is he supposedly starting hiding it in 2018 but so far I'm not seeing anything else on the site in this style
No it's more like
Hey tranny I want to fuck. I took your no name art and put it into a major video game. I hope this impresses you
It is very solid
Something most games do
How much are they paying you to run damage control?
Hello BDF
Post ten, no i'll make it easy - five examples. Should be simple, since most games do it - you should have thousands of cases of blatant plagiarism to show us
Oh no no no...
WHERE'S THE JOKE FUCKLEY
Okay, I kind of thought you were a faggot but you're actually pretty cool. Sheer/skintight sportswear makes me hard as diamonds so I was pretty disappointed with all the designs.
Here's my prediction.
Occam's razor, they stole the art and hoped no one will notice.
that timing had to be intentional
That's not Occam's razor since Bungie artists followed the artist on twitter making it obvious there was a connection. The connection being some form of relationship
cool, shame that bungie became such soulless hacks
I find it very odd how your personal headcanon has the artist being the petty and spiteful one, rather than the people that did artistic fraud.
Go google plagiarism in video games for thousands more
Oh no, now he's gonna dump NES boxart from 500 years ago and no modern examples.
Yeah, I get this logic, especially for a game in development, but most games aren't half-baked messes with an extremely mixed public perception 5 months out from release. Most games aren't made by the same people who fucked up destiny. They sowed this reaction a long time ago and now they reap as they stumble
Commando is dressed like a Commando
Even if thats a bit of a stretch, I'll grant you that one. Now post 4 more, I know you can do it (i'm not doing your research for you)
he already posted that and a few other box arts in the last thread lol. I'm not even gonna bother asking for examples from this century
It's not petty more like being a scorned lover
I think if your dad slapped you a couple of times you'd be able to explain why your picture and the stuff in the OP are not even close to equal.
As if this game wasn't already getting a lukewarm reception, it now has the stench of plagiarism all over it before its next boring showcase event. It obviously woulda be smarter to keep xir mouth shut and make a lawsuit about it once the game was out, but taking more of the wind out of its sails before its released is pretty fucking funny
The connection being some form of relationship
The tranny said there was no direct communication between them and anybody at Bungie. It's more likely Bungie's art team or whoever they exported the work to didn't give a fuck about anything.
Bungie has been caught doing this at least one time before for Destiny skins and I can't remember if they ever paid the artist or even removed it from the game.
game literally uses stolen assets
even includes the artist’s name and logo
Anon Babble still defends it
lol
It's all good whipped uncle tom Dmg will be on the case to ensure good will that Ravnesh and/or Hao on the contracted art team will be reprimanded and ties severed, and some bullshit about the game's integrity or whatever. I guess the bigger question is what the fuck is Bungie doing with all this supposed money they have.
bro keep wasting your time trying to prove something to me when ive made up my mind already and just want to shit on bungie for whatever they do
Meanwhile in reality no one cares about this trivial nonsense
Are you actually fucking retarded? A guy posing in the same way isn't even close to literally copy pasting someones art into your game and changing NOTHING about it
even includes the artist’s name and logo
Also known as giving credit, so it's not stealing at all. Checkmate faggots.
No the tranny said they had no communication between the people that followed xie/xur on twitter not all of Bungie.
nooooo you cant steal! Only i can steal games but you cant steal assets!!!!
That's not Occam's razor since Bungie artists followed the artist on twitter making it obvious there was a connection.
do you just not know how social media works
They had fan art ripped for a drawn cutscene, ghosted the artist when they called foul, year or so goes by artist still makes stink about it, one of the rat fuck community managers tweets them back saying uh just send us your info bro. And I'm not sure what happened.
Bungie has always been a dogshit studio and Halo was always cringe
It's a literal Indian kek
/vee/ is a paid indian shill on damage control
I mean, i know thats a large portion of the posters here, but all the actual Anon Babbleermin are laughing their asses off at Loss of all things being the nail in the coffin evidence
there are tons of examples! games do it all the time!
uhhh i don't actually care though, i'm just posting the same images in every related thread saying its not a big deal
I hope theyre at least paying you enough for a few meals, because this job fucking sucks lmao
Yea on social media you and others can see who follows you
Halo used to be special
1-3 are great
Reach was when the cracks started to show
Great artists steal, bad artists plagiarize. This is an example of stealing. Solid Snake is basically that nigger from Escape from New York and nobody cares. Why? Because they're good artists. It's transformative and iconic. Poorly smudging out somebody's watermark so you can use their graphic design assets on a box in your video game is fucking stupid when you have at your disposal all the money Bungie has.
Let me guess, they outsourced to India?
I can’t separate this style from 1999 snowboarder culture
it's not plagiarism because... because i said so ok?!?!?!
time to grow up and admit kojima is a thief
and you can just follow people without their permission
that a bunch of artists follow another artist doesn't mean the another artist has any relation to the bunch of artists
Keeeek
Does anyone even care about Marathon?
As I said it's noticeable when they aren't literally whos and instead work at Bungie
literal who invented squares and arrows
get real
I dont side with women. They are always wrong.
Halo was always cringe
You're wrong.
Yeah, I literally just said he blatantly stole. Like a thief. He's also a rather talented artist, clearly unlike anybody at Bungie.
My guess would be they were using the stuff as a placeholder for the alpha, which originally was going to be locked up tight under an NDA and nobody was going to be allowed to stream or make videos. Whoever made the call to open up the Alpha for public scrutiny didn't consider this would be an issue.
I kinda did because I'm one of the seven people who played the originals, but this made me lose all interest.
It really isn't? Did you mean he followed them, anon?
It's a man
Of course we do, in the same way we cared about Hyenas and Concord. Its fucking comedy gold/schadenfreude salad
It really is anon. If someone follows you and has "works at Bungie" in their bio you will notice that
bro your game had to plagiarize a fucking rectangle
idc about this game at all but it's fucking hilarious that Bungie is creatively bankrupt they needed to literally copy-paste someone else's art. they have a TEAM of artists...
Is this supposed to be impressive?
95% chance it was just jeets but this is also a possibility
How much is Bungie paying you? Be honest
trusting woman
You're a fag, we know.
that asset has literally the artists name on it (antireal), just slightly "scrubbed" off
Here's what Bungie did you stupid son of a bitch
If you only have two or three followers maybe. do you think every artist is aware of every person that follows them?
woman
they have a TEAM of artists...
No they don't. They probably just have a team of indians they export the actual work to. That's why this sort of incompetent bullshit happens. All to make their charts and graphs go a little higher.
same way
Posting everyday the same shit?
This game's releasing in September, it's inexcusable for it to be full of placeholder textures at this point in time.
The graphics are clearly very WIP, the entire lighting engine is busted in the Alpha.
Honestly, Snoot Game LITERALLY stole an ENTIRE fucking game and nobody cares. It's not really about stealing, it's if you're a dumb creatively bankrupt plagiarizing jeet about it too.
Bungie wouldn’t defend you tho
It's "posting the same shit everyday" Subhojeet.
sony paid more than a billion dollars for this
If it's from a company you care for then yea you would notice anon
Maybe they should've hired some people who could actually program. Maybe they should hired some people who could actually draw.
Jason Jones must be pissing and shitting himself in laughter every single day.
you're not supposed to give the animals english lessons, anon. its funnier and makes them easier to spot when they "think" theyre typing like a human being
So take that as a yes.
You're so retarded, i genuinely hope you're underage, if not then you're a lost cause
so mad at a harmless theory he had to whine and reply multiple times
Anyone got that image that shows Marathon lumped in with Concord and Fairgames as "big upcoming franchises"
Just off the reception alone there is no way this game launches in September, never mind all the blatant issues.
should a company be held liable if they outsource design to some pajeets and the jeets copypaste the first thing they find on google images?
i don't like bungie for a lot of reasons but to me it seems the one delivering the assets should be held responsible
but then again fuck bungie for hiring indians in the first place
You're not that important for me to reply to multiple times retard, go ahead, point which posts are also mine
Why didn't they just draw a square and arrows? Or render the artwork in-game using flat polygons since they are going for this look in 4K?
I can't understand why anyone would want to be a game dev if they are told to design artwork and they immediately steal shit from online.
My thoughts as well. Didn't Call of Duty also have this sort of controversy with a skin or something? Still total bullshit, with all the money these companies have I have literally no idea why they don't have their own in-house artists. It would explain why most AAA cattle slop looks the same though, exporting their programmers and artists to the same subcontinent.
Apparently I am weirdo since you keep samefagging
This is the closest symbol I've found so far that looks like Loss but it's still not the one featured in the game
antireal.info
It's also a criminally easy style to ape. It's flat shapes. You don't need an expert illustrator to make a cheap imitation.
Too much work
should a company be held liable if they outsource design to some pajeets and the jeets copypaste the first thing they find on google images?
YES! If you hire unqualified people to make something of quality, you need to be held responsible for what happens.
That's the only way this shit can stop, so no more games outsource the responsibility for making a good original game to some fucking Indians.
no proof
You're not only retarded, but a bitch too, don't waste more of your braincells spewing your headcanon
Nah I get it, the game looks like shit and I can see why people think the characters are ugly, but the lips just ruin me.
Sheer/skintight sportswear makes me hard as diamonds
My brother, stuff like latex outfits, swimwear, sporty looks are fucking PEAK sexo and if I was some rich bastard you'd be seeing a lot more marathon art with those details in mind
I have proof since you keep making the same angry whiny response to the same post. Some of you are terminally autistic with how much mundane shit upsets you
The Loss thing is a meme. Her tweet is from years ago, and the guy replying with a Marathon screenshot is probably just retarded. While it would be funny if Loss is what killed Marathon, the truth is anybody can put their shitty meme in a game. Please stop searching, it's making me feel bad for you wasted time.
The single positive thing people have had to say about the marathon reboot was that it had a unique artstyle
The artstyle was wholesale stolen from one guy's portfolio without even talking to him
Bungie really has lost all of it's passionate devs hasn't it?
arrestium, you make basedfvl kino
really makes me think.
Oh, this is actual plagarism. I thought it was just another whiny bitch, but that is clearly a piss-poor edit of his art.
This the most pathetic kind of plagiarism too, not even a vool drawing or a painting, but literal flat colored shapes any retard with photoshop could make, it speaks volumes
be artists
be paid to make art
steal it all from the internet, all from the same guy
just fucking quit your jobs, do something else, please leaving gaming and all entertainment and go away
They don't look anything alike. It's a different color entirely and there's no text in the block.
He literally called it a crazy prediction calm your neotits
Nigger you're retarded. They couldn't even remove the text in the block properly. You can still see leftover pixels.
b-but changing the colors is le hard
Nigger, it's two colors. There's this tool in every image editor called "select by color."
Also, the text IS there and was scrubbed improperly. Are you blind?
Who are the ironic retards still defending Bungie here lmao
If big shot executives get to hide behind the company itself then the common man on the assembly line should get the same protection.
Her
This is the third time they are caught doing this.

Bungie Defense Force isn't a meme anon
if it was just the box and numbers you could easily say it just happens and isn't plagiarism. problem is the little marks on the top, those show someone copied it and pasted it, edited it a tiny bit and moved on. Someone is trying to pass off someone elses work off as theirs and doing a piss poor job at hiding it.
best case scenario
artist does nothing
worst case scenario
cheap settlement
I mean, they already realized it's worth it.
woman
on twitter
based bungie dabbing on troons
UPDATE: scrolled through Twitter, someone uploaded an in-game clip showing the Loss texture a few weeks ago, has no views and was posted by a completely different account from the guy who first pointed this out

youtube.com
i knew something was fishy
Why did they start making sentient sex dolls and decided the best use for them was for sending into active war zones (which are active for seemingly no reason)?
Because just like in the real world, people making robots fail to see the vision that makes the most money
IRL we have uncanny valley human faced robots instead of simple looking faces, and in marathon they're sending walking onaholes to collect garbage
Constantly baffled at Bungie's decision to staple the Marathon name to this obviously completely unrelated game. Guess they've spent the last 15 years fucking up so badly that no one would greenlight anything but a marketable reboot.
nuMarathon is closer aesthetically to Oni and the actual player base is probably about the same, Mandalore's reviews were probably a significant factor in choosing one over the other.
company gets called out for it
"Lol isn't our fault, it was the company we contracted art from"
Because old Marathon is too chudcore and it's current year.
Why did they start making sentient sex dolls and decided the best use for them was for sending into active war zones
Assumedly because they're printed biomechanical shells (not robots!) that have to be connected to the transferred consciousness inside on some deeper psychological level judging by the cinematic trailer and the memory stuff, and I guess them being debt stricken gives the companies control over them and being human gives the runners an edge over the UESC drones.
(which are active for seemingly no reason)?
They're supposed to be fighting over the resources on Tau Ceti or some dumb contrived shit. I really don't blame you for not knowing any of this, Bungie has been fucking awful with communication. Any lore bits feel more like something like Apex Legends or Fortnite where any "lore" is more set-dressing or side shit. I have no idea why they've been hyping up the world and the story telling potential and have barely show it off. Probably because it isn't written yet, like ShillUp said.
kojima didn't got sued because Carpenter , who is a gamer, didn't want to sue because he was cool.
the fact we'll never get a Marathon game that actually looks like the Mullins art hurts so bad
You now remember that Sony brought Bungie for $3.6 billion
I kinda understand "why" they're fighting, but what I don't understand is WHY. I mean, shit obviously hit the fan, why are UESC units actively fighting against corporate retrievers and playing guard dog over dead remains? We're talking about a setting where literal aliens wiped out all the humans in the colony, yet it doesn't make sense why there are runners in the first place, and it seems like one of the final scenes in the cinematic shows that all runners are apparently coming from the same ship, literally living in pods.
So like they all go down, kill each other for no reason, and destroy potentially billions worth of UESC equipment at the behest of the corpos just to find out why the colony was destroyed.
It's a retarded premise, and I know Bungie will add some bullshit "humans destroy each other" rhethoric like they did in the trailer.
Ever since learning that Marathon exists and that it appears to just be Destiny 3 with a new artstyle, I have genuinely hoped that it would cause Bungie to dissolve it's so bad.
So Marathon's entire art direction being literally stolen from some random that the Bungie devs follow on Twitter is some beautiful piece of information to learn. Holy fuck, please, I want Bungie to die so badly. They could have just made Destiny good, but they never did.
Here is the example from the previous thread.
There's two more pics
Trahan company, has been since sometime after Halo 3 came out. Oh well.
if they wanted to reboot Destiny with a different art style literally all they'd have to do is go back to the Destiny 1 concept art
(in hindsight I think Halo was the only Bungie shooter to actually do justice to the concept art, OG Marathon just didn't have the budget or technology to live up to and they inexplicably abandoned picrel to turn Destiny into whatever the fuck it ended up being)
This. Possibly the most overrated studio ever. Probably the worst corporate acquisition ever by Sony. Don't know what the fuck they were thinking.
just parks and stays completely still
yeah that's halo alright lmao
fucking mogged by most PC FPS games and that includes bungie's very own Marathon 2
Yeah see that's the thing. The gameplay was always shit, especially the weird gunplay.
artist isn't considering a legal case against Bungie
You can't claim ownership over IP that you're not willing to defend. The artist is effectively renouncing their rights to the artwork, in which case there's no reason why Bungie can't appropriate it. This is better for consumers as well because now the art is actually being utilized.
people have never seen this kind of artstyle before and think its something that's new?
people should see Wipeout 3 on the ps1
we will see
this was discovered less than 12 hours ago, there's plenty of time for the artist to change her mind
This is better for consumers as well because now the art is actually being utilized.
Don't try to tell me this is "better for me"
haha we robbed somebody blind and got away with it, but it's better for you because we get to sell it to you :DDD
I'm going to steal their art too now.
He's not going to be able to take on a multi billion dollar company. This is America, and you're deluded and naive to think a normal person would be able to get justice here.
Wipeout 3 is not a particularly well known game at this point
looks way better than nu-Marathon tho
trooner
it's actually totally possible to win civil suits against corporations for this
Bros the odds of "accidentally" making the top part of the right image have exactly the same pattern, spacing, size etc as the one on the right are astronomical. There's even the corner bit on the bottom right. I have zero doubt that if we overlayed the flat texture to the art it'd be 1:1
Like I genuinely do not get how someone can look at these and say "this is not the same". Sure there are some elements of the artist's style where you could "kinda" argue that it's just coincidence but this shit right here is factual art theft
If they won't even try, then that's that. Irrelevant whether they can or can't afford it. Bungie has done nothing wrong until shown otherwise by the courts.
LOL You don't get to call people that while defending Bungie
How much of a shitshow is this going to be?
i invented two triangles on top of each other
fuck off faggot
okay i know this whole thing happened just today but you guys seriously gotta come up with more prompts to give your jeets and llms
just spend millions of dollars and get bogged down for years in legal battles and you can stop corporations stealing from you!
The legal system in America is quid pro quo, and the only winners are corporations and grifting attorneys that do things like class action law suits for multi millions they pocket and the actual victims get paid $1 each lmao
people have never seen this kind of artstyle before and think its something that's new?
people should see Wipeout 3 on the ps1
Keep in mind that the art design in the original PlayStation Wipeout games was outsourced to a graphics design group called Designers Republic.
It's the internet, people are wildly delusional about any fucking topic. I think the very best you could call Bungie here is insanely incompetent, and the only salvaging of optics is to just fuckin apologize outright - give that artist a pile of cash, remove the blatant copy paste jobs from the textures, and give them a fuckin special thanks credit or some shit - they didn't invent the aesthetic but clearly Bungie utilized their work quite explicitly and often.
The aesthetic is like one of two things that people at least talk about and argue over with Marathon instead of just being blanket negative, and there's real risk of even that last bastion of semi-positivity being fully poisoned by just being blatantly plagiarized and unattributed.
plenty of lawyers would happily take this case for free, the plagiarism is blatant
They copy and pasted to use as textures.
make a contingency fee arrangement with the lawyer
What now?
Oh oops I just accidentally copied a poster 1:1 teehee how silly of me it's a good thing it's only just squares and rectangles
No one has been robbed. The artist plainly said they lack the funds to defend their rights in court, thereby renouncing their ownership of the artwork. It's essentially material abandoned on the internet that Bungie was able to put to better use.
Bungie's legal team is only too happy to ruin your life if you do.
So? If I wanted to make a couple of triangles do I gotta ask this dude for permission now?
If you wanted to download his art and then use it as a texture in a video game then yes you would have to do that.
i do the same thing in fucking power point. what are you gonna do?
If you're selling $80 powerpoint presentations using my art I would absolutely sue your pants off
why do I have to share this shithole with socially inept retards who are too autistic to realize they're being baited
you're not going to own them with facts and logic, they're wrong on purpose because its the easiest way to get (you)s and you're giving them what they want
If they need funds to have rights then they aren't rights bungieshill saar...
the artist stated that she does not have the funds to go to court
that can change
she
the magical law man will come do his incantations for free for me in court
lmao
the absolute delusion that you believe you could take on people exponentially more powerful than you in America
my art is triangles
you will lose in court.
John Carmack the lauded programmer googled how to delete data from a harddrive the day he was caught. Life isn't a 5d chess crime series. People make bombastically stupid mistakes especially when they're pressured
the magical law man will come do his incantations for free for me in court
for such an easy case?
very possible
This is pretty believable
You're a naive retard
people have never seen this kind of artstyle before and think its something that's new?
*names game no one has ever heard of*
easy case
Bungie
subsidiary of Sony
easy case to just take on the largest electronics company in America just by yourself and your free law priest
easy
I don't think you understand. The legal system in America isn't about the facts of a case. It's about who you are, and the kind of money you have to throw around. And taking on one of the largest corporations in the world is not an easy case.
So why is it fine for companies to steal but when I pirate their games they seethe endlessly?
This was a blast to play, faggots shitting on it never played the game and will never know what they missed out on
I think you have a naive understanding of "more money wins in every situation ever"
which is not actually how it works
nah this is Anon Babble you're looking for reddit
This is why people should stop posting their art online. Faggy corporations steal.
what a shitty incompetent company
You're naive to think it's just about money. A powerful law firm can do a class action lawsuit on the backs of a bunch of poor people that they're using as pawns. And when you hear about some normal person getting court compensation or a settlement in America the bulk of that money is not going to the victim. It's going to the attorneys. You're all puffed up with lies like that to actually believe you'd stand a chance even if you were completely in the right.
I think you really hope bungie doesn't get sued
I wish they would but it's not going to happen, and if it went to court, the case would get deadwalled.
We committed a fucky wucky
Fire your staff
Have absolutely no fucking clue about what they put in the game
Funny
It was an unnamed person who is not in the company anymore.
lol
it was consolebaby's first fps, for anyone from PC is was nothing interesting
I'm so fucking tired of bullshit corporate apologies bros
tldr
we're not going to pay the artist whose art we stole, but we're now hiring another jeet to replace the jeet that stole the art. we're just going to be more careful and strict next time
they could have offered the guy whose art they stole a job and said they're very sorry. but nope they don't even offer him an apology lmao
Apology? They didn't even give that.
This. They never made a single good game.
can you rephrase that but this time without saying tranny 500 times like some demented autist?
It's not even an apology. It's a "non apology" without admitting any fault. No where in those tweets do they ever apologise, or say sorry, or anything remotely like that.
Didn't they put out a similar PR statement the last three times they got caught stealing someone else's stuff? Really rings hallow when they keep doing the 'we're sowwy UwU' bit.
all those posts talking about how bungie was probably just going to come up with some contrived reason that takes the blame off of them
the actual response is literally just "oops!"
It's over for this game, isn't it? Artists, alpha testers, Destiny players, Marathon fans, Youtubers, the fucking Marathon Bulletin guy are all clamoring for blood. The one thing people were hanging onto was the art, and now any discussion of it is completely tarnished with accusations of plagiarism and memories of past Bungie fuck ups.
art director happens to follow the ripped off artist along with other bungie employees
it was just this one guy who doesn't even work here anymore lol!
uh huh
A male graphic designer would do far better than squares and simple shapes.
And there's people that will defend the right of corporations to not have to have any accountability to the death. Go commit so called copyright theft and watch what happens to you, and watch all the people call for your blood.
we are commited to doing right by the fucking guys we are already paying
that person that had all their shit stolen? lmao they can get fucked no public apology or anything for them
It wasn't me bro sorry that happened LMAO
It's actually a good design. No one said troons are talentless they just need to get out of the writing room
oh damn
sucks that happened to you
oh. Anyway..
to be fair. michael bien and james cameron know kojima
What even happened to Marathon anyway. Before the alpha all I fucking heard was marathon this, marathon that.
And the alpha happened and it just disapeared from all the circles I am in.
Go commit so called copyright theft and watch what happens to you
Literally nothing. I've pirated tens of thousands of dollars worth of tv., movies, books, ad block (actually very few pirated games) and nothing has or will ever happen.
watch all the people call for your blood
Huh?
turns out it was yet another corposhooter without any real identity or unique selling points whatsoever
just a bunch of things mishmashed together in the most boring paint-by-numbers manner possible
AI-generated game where not a single person on the dev team actually wanted to be there
Piracy is nothing.
Do what Bungie did.
Go copy Bungie's assets, like their art, or games, or whatever and sell it as your own like Bungie is doing. Watch what happens to you.
I'm not AAA developer, but I stole that guy's MSGK design (slightly altered) and put that design into my own rpg maker game, though to be honest the design is pretty generic and the the artist I copied most likely stole from somewhere too.
Honestly can't wait for ecelbs to make videos about this tomorrow and offically kill the game
We need to talk about the bungie situation
The Marathon situation is crazy (they're cooked)
When did Bungie hire Toby???
and sell it as your own like Bungie is doing
They did not do this
Watch what happens to you
Like all the r34 artists who got sued by Disney, Nintendo, Overwatch and Fortnite. Or the doujin artists who got sued by kadokawa? Oh wait, none of those things ever happened
Marathon is a product containing stolen assets that they're selling. Yes, they did do that. Do you think Marathon is a charity?
Does this mean I actually get to witness Sony executing Bungie after Marathon flops?
Or will they panic and go back to Destiny as their main focus and pretend they've never heard of Marathon.
Marathon is a product
Who told you that? Did you buy this product?
Sony payed billions for Bungie. They'll squeeze as much blood from that stone as they can.
What the fuck is this argument meant to be?
HOLLOW
Your claim is that this event is evidence that corporations do "not have to have any accountability." However if the game was being sold they could be sued and forced to remove the infringing material and potentially pay damages. This has not happened because the game is not on the market so there are no damages
He has spoken
This has not happened because the game is not on the market so there are no damages
No damages in the court trial your held in your head? There's no damages because the artist hasn't claimed any damages, but he could claim to have damages if he wanted.
Not even the guy you were responding to. Just baffled by you posting like a corporate stooge lawyer.
kill yourself
What did grummz say
I choose go believe
Sony payed billions for Bungie.
This is still wild to me. When even fucking MS went "yeah no that's way overvalued" and then in come Sony to sweep them up.
And the first thing they released under Sony was fucking Lightfall lmao.
he could claim to have damages if he wanted
Ok. He can do that
It's called thinking. The orgional claim was literally a lawful claim. Why would I think about it in terms of emotions
KEK
BUNGIE IS COOKED
their pre-Halo library was interesting. PiD, for all its jank and retarded slow walk speed, has one of the best premises for a dungeon crawler EVER.
Oh and the best part comes later you see at least it was original art from an actual artist, stolen yeah but it was art used in the game, now they're gonna use a shitty diluted style to avoid the shadow of plagiarism that is now cast over the project and removing the only thing that was kind of interesting and original (lol how ironic) about the game.
Politics have gotten so fucked the far right and far left will delude themselves into making shit up just so they can either defend their side or put down the other. It's mindnumbing.
Hilarious. What a pathetic shitshow.
