sure disgaea 6 is 70 euros on steam
"Game preservation" is ridicules and overused. People excuse all sorts of dumb behavior by that word.
Huh? There's literally no other way to play this game."Game preservation" is ridicules and overused. People excuse all sorts of dumb behavior by that word.
They've always been douches that charged more for their games because they could. They just make good games.Damn atlus, you used to be cool
I could be wrong but from I can understand these guys were trying make profit from it and if thats the case its their own fault.

but Disgaea is from NISA..sure disgaea 6 is 70 euros on steam
a switch port
Yea.. people still think it's Atlus because they used to publish it lolbut Disgaea is from NISA..
Typically you'd see somebody do this if they had plans to revitalize the IP or, like Nintendo, to protect the image of their IP very strictly. That said, they've pretty much milked the Megaten universe bone dry at this point, so I'm sure it's some perceived loss of income that's driving it.Apart from this being a bad thing for gamers and cultural preservation, what could their motives be?
I think just going straight to suing them is a little bit crappy to be honest. Hit them with a cease and desist. If they don't take it down, sue. Just putting them in legal trouble straight off the bat kind of sucks even if they have every right to do it. Especially if they are actually fans.Wow, this is soooo wrong, you are suppose to LET FANS illegally use your IP, shame on Atlus and Sega. /s
For all we know they already sent them a cease and desist.I think just going straight to suing them is a little bit crappy to be honest. Hit them with a cease and desist.

Because suing your fans and causing yourself a PR nightmare is a better solution. There were better ways to handle this. For example they could have hired on the team managing it or at very least issue a cease and desist. This was a garbage move on their part. Preserving art SHOULD NOT be a crime as long as you aren't profiting off other people's work.Wow, this is soooo wrong, you are suppose to LET FANS illegally use your IP, shame on Atlus and Sega. /s
The article framed it like this wasn't the case, but you never know.For all we know they already sent them a cease and desist.

True, the people modding this may have not disclosed that publicly, but you could be right, they may have also not been giving a cease and desist and Atlus went straight to that law suit lol
They not playing.
"fans"? Liking a game doesn't excuse breaking the law. I don't get why people love trying to use that as some cover or something and then try to blackmail the developer with this whole "PR nightmare" bullshit as if most of us give a fuck.
So....as a "fan" of Atlus and Sega, I'm hype for what they put out, could give 2 shits about the crimes theses folks committed when they illegally started using someone else's IP without their consent.
The issue isn't even merely the idea of "profiting", them putting this out can misrepresent their image, brand etc if folks are playing it, having issues and then blaming, attacking and making negative comments about ALTUS based on something, someone else did with their work...without their consent. So...you can cry about this shit, but this is a nightmare for you bud, not Atlus/Sega or their PR or fans that actually care about respecting that companies rights.
99.9% of fan's are not losing sleep over this suit. They'll go nuts when that Persona 6 trailer drops like usual lol edit. or that RE-Fantasy trailer, semi OT...where the fuck is that game? lol
I see the Atlus legal team is here on Gaf to tell us how it is lol
Illegal doesn't necessarily mean hurtful. The game has been off the market for years and made no money. It is financially inert. Practically no harm is coming from this, which is the only way the game can be kept alive as of now.lol nah, I'm simply aware that this is illegal and against the law.
Don't need to be a lawyer or part of any legal team to know that.
They are using Atlus’s property to make money, it’s natural for ANY company to protect their IP.Illegal doesn't necessarily mean hurtful. The game has been off the market for years and made no money. It is financially inert. Practically no harm is coming from this, which is the only way the game can be kept alive as of now.

The "fans" made a phishing site of this game.it would cost them less money to simply let the few dozen weebs interested in this play it than to to sue them. atlus is so weird.
