Chapter 257: Art resource plagiarism controversy
Chapter 257 Art resource plagiarism controversy
Although there is nothing yet, just seeing this game type has already made the barrage quarrel.
“I’ll go! Great, this is going to give those traditional mmorpg manufacturers a little shock to heaven! Looking forward to it!”
“As a loyal MMORPG player, I have long been dissatisfied with the current poor state of these manufacturers. It is a good thing to take action against Heaven!”
“I can’t imagine how much fun it would be with the art style of Inverse Heaven and the Western fantasy background!”
“Put it down, mmorpg is a genre that has already gone out of style, and even Heaven can’t save it, I’m telling you!”
“Nike Heaven is still suitable for independent games. I think mmorpg is probably 8 lines.”
“Yes, they are incompatible.”
Lecturer Ding did not express his opinion immediately, but looked at the barrage and fell into deep thought.
I have to say that Nitiantian Games still has its own tricks. The promotion of the new game only released a picture and a game type, but it actually triggered such a heated discussion.
Obviously, both the pros and cons of supporting the anti-heaven have good reasons.
The positive point of view is that Nitiantian Games is already good at Western fantasy art themes, and its realistic graphics are simply unique. This level has even surpassed those foreign countries that were good at making Western fantasy MMORPG games more than ten years ago. Big factory.
The game graphics of the next era, coupled with the top-notch art of Nitiantian, this entire game world is absolutely indistinguishable!
Secondly, it is out of trust in the gameplay innovation of the game.
So far, Nitiantian has produced many types of games, but each game basically has a big or small innovation, which can always bring surprises to players.
Since the release of these games, it can be said that there are constant minor problems, but no major problems. Overall, it's still fun.
Even what some people consider to be minor flaws have turned out to be highlights of the game.
Every game and every type of game never fails, which is quite terrifying and has also accumulated a very good reputation for Nitian, allowing players to trust it unconditionally.
The opposing view is that the mmorpg game type is no longer viable! Not against Nitian, but against all the game developers here! It can't be saved!
As for why this game type is dying? In fact, there are just a few reasons.
First, mmorpg is destined to be an extremely time-consuming game, and what players lack most now is time. It is simply impossible to spend several hours every day, organize dozens of people to clear the raid, and then open up wasteland for a month.
This game mode means there is a divide between those players who have a lot of time and those who don’t.
And this model is also difficult to compete with some fragmented time-killing games, such as moba games or mobile games.
This is the fundamental reason for the decline of mmorpg games. It is a natural law and cannot be changed by the company Nitiantian.
Second, nearly twenty years have passed since the development of MMORPG games, and its game mechanics have been almost exhausted.
Whether it’s team copies, battlefields, or other in-game gameplay, it’s basically been finalized, and players are almost getting tired of it.
It is difficult to find any new ideas when developing mmorpg games. If it is just a reproduction of classic gameplay, then why don’t players play the nostalgic servers of those classic mmorpg games?
Third, the current success of Nitiantian Games is mainly in stand-alone games, but online games are a completely different track.
Let’s not talk about anything else, let’s talk about the lazy character of Nitiantian Game. After the game was released, it never made any subsequent updates. It looked like “the laws of the ancestors are immutable”. How can you make an mmorpg game with this attitude?
No one can convince anyone, both pros and cons.
The positive side emphasizes that it only needs to satisfy a small number of players, but the negative side believes that mmorpg must have a large player base to be considered successful, otherwise it will seriously affect the player's gaming experience, and with fewer players, it will be difficult to recover the server bandwidth cost, so simply do it Less than stable profit.
Lecturer Ding also has a hard time judging whether this game can be successful.
On the surface, this game type is difficult to make, and the hope of success is slim. However, Nitiantian is a maverick game company after all, so it will inevitably make players have some unrealistic expectations for it.
“Okay, brothers, stop arguing.
“Wouldn’t you know if it was a mule or a horse when it was led out for a walk?
“When this game comes out, it will be clear whether it is a success if you look at the number of people online at the same time and the revenue.
“There is no need to pop the champagne or sing bad words now.
“But it will probably take more than a year before the development of this game is completed, right? It is still in the state of creating a new folder. No matter how efficient the game is, the size of an mmorpg game is still here.
“Huh? Damn it! Online testing is expected to start within five months!!
“Is it fake? It must have been marked incorrectly on the official platform, right?”
This promotional picture does not include the specific launch time of the game, not even small print.
But on the official platform, these new games will create a partition in advance. At the same time, there will also be the game type, game name, game introduction, expected launch time, etc.
This new game from Nitiantian also has a special section, but the name of the game is temporarily undecided, and the game introduction only has a simple sentence "Nitiantian's best work, so stay tuned."
Only the expected launch time is shown as the end of December this year!
Lecturer Ding was a little confused: "Could it be said that there is still a development team hidden in Nitiantian Game? The development of this mmorpg game has already started in advance? No way, I haven't heard any rumors before. \crum\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ What time compression technology can develop an mmorpg game in five months?
“What kind of game can we do with this technology?”
Lecturer Ding was very puzzled. After much deliberation, the most likely possibility was that the official platform marked a time randomly and made a mistake.
It may also be the end of December next year.
Everyone discussed it for a while, but no one came up with a solution. After all, there is too little official information released so far, and it is impossible to make a particularly clear judgment.
We can’t discuss something that doesn’t exist yet.
However, just as Lecturer Ding was about to go back and continue the live broadcast, he saw an eye-catching paid barrage.
“Damn it! Xiao Ding, go check out the forum. Someone revealed that the promotional images for the game Nitiantian seem to have used art resources from other companies! They just copied them! It’s so outrageous!”
One wave has not subsided, but another wave has arisen.
Just now everyone was discussing whether mmorpg games would work. How come in the blink of an eye, the topic turned into plagiarism and plagiarizing other people’s art resources?
Lecturer Ding’s first reaction was disbelief.
"How is that possible! You don't know the level of Nitiantian's art, so why bother copying others?"
"The possibility of accidentally using someone else's art resources for promotional pictures is not low. After all, many of the people who make the pictures in the publicity department are temporary workers. But you say that the entire picture was copied? Then I don't believe it. Temporary workers can't be so outrageous. !”
With confusion on his face, Professor Ding found the post on the Internet.
This post was obviously just posted not long ago, and it was only posted after seeing the promotional pictures of Nitiantian’s new game.
“The art resource of Nitiantian’s new game seems to be the work of Tianlong Digital Entertainment Company, “Disputes in the Demon Realm”!
“This game has not been officially released yet, but about three months ago, a group of players were invited to play the early beta version, and I was one of them, so I have an impression of these materials.
“Especially their orc character, compared with the orcs in traditional film and television dramas, there are some changes in the image. The top of the head is pointed. In addition, the body shape and appearance are also different, which is very recognizable.
“Isn’t it a direct use of Nitian?
“If you don’t believe it, there are still some players who went to Tianlong Digital Entertainment Company to experience the early beta version of “Strife in the Demon Realm”. Let them tell whether the art materials are exactly the same!”
At first, everyone didn’t quite believe it. After all, it sounded quite outrageous, and it looked like the game company called Tianlong Digital Entertainment was trying to get into trouble.
Who are you?
Although Nitiantian is still only a medium-sized game company, it already has many die-hard fans and has a large number of classic IPs recognized by players.
What kind of company is Tianlong Digital Entertainment? As for Ni Tian plagiarizing your art?
However, if you take a closer look, it seems that the art resources of Nitiantian this time are indeed lacking in some standards. They are obviously not as eye-catching as before, and are quite mediocre.
What’s even more terrible is that under this post there is actually another player who participated in the test of “Strife in the Demon Realm” and released a few pictures!
Logically speaking, screenshots or photos are not allowed for this kind of internal testing, but after all, Tianlong Digital Entertainment is not a particularly professional large company, and it has not signed an agreement with this group of players to pay millions for leaking secrets, so there are still players trying it. While playing, I secretly took a few photos with my phone.
These photos are relatively blurry, and because they were taken inside Tianlong Digital Entertainment Company, you can still vaguely see the surrounding environment.
But this also makes the picture look more realistic.
The picture is a close-up of the character in the game. The orc character is just like the original poster said. The top of the head is pointed. Some orcs will use a small amount of hair on the top of the head to make a small braid. They look quite smart and beautiful.
And this image is exactly the same as the orc in the corner of the original painting released by the game Nitiantian.
The evidence is solid!
Many Nitian Heizi and fun-loving players immediately became active. After all, this is a direct plagiarism of art resources, and it is not the same level of crime as copying a gameplay.
Copying gameplay is at best a moral condemnation, and the law does not protect gameplay.
But what if you plagiarize art resources? That is absolutely accurate!
Countless players have gone to Tianlong Digital Entertainment’s official platform page and Weibo to report the news, asking them to seize the time to defend their rights!
After all, the other party is Nitiantian, and it should be a company that is not short of money. If this lawsuit is settled, it should be able to get a huge amount of blackmail.
The efforts of netizens soon bore fruit. Just over half an hour later, Tianlong Digital Entertainment issued an emergency notice on its website.
“Thank you to all the enthusiastic players and netizens for paying attention to this incident. We would like to clarify the following:
“Nitiantian Games has purchased all the copyrights and subsequent development and operation rights of “Clash of Demons”, so it can use the art resources in the game at will.
“Thank you all for your continued support of “Dissension in the Demon World”, and I hope you can continue to pay attention to the follow-up works of Tianlong Digital Entertainment and Nitiantian Games!”
As soon as this notice came out, everyone was dumbfounded.
ah?
Has Nitiantian Games bought games from other companies? ?
