#AGE OF AINCRAD CODE#

Right now, most have almost the same code structure, only using different models, levels and graphic styles. We are unsatisfied by the way MMORPGs are currently created. All donations are invested into the project. We are currently not gathering funds for personal gains.

Worse, ignoring something damaging (and the OP has already made it clear that this will be a poorly conceive mess that will certainly not be on brand in quality or production) just weakens the company's case against the next violation as it shows a lack of due diligence in brand protection.Age of Aincrad is a MMOARPG (Massively Multiplayer Online Action Role Playing Game), inspired by the popular anime series Sword Art Online. It can also be a loss in revenue, which can happen when the brand is damaged because some clown is allowed to create their branded product. That damage doesn't have to be shift in revenue. Part of protecting a brand is due diligence in pursuing infringing material that damages the brand. That really isn't true about copyright, IP or brand protection. If the IP owner declines the offer then it shouldn't be too hard to modify the characters and world enough so that it doesn't infringe on copy-write. As long as this stays a non profit fan project until they get a yay or nay from the IP owners, they wont get sued. Most copy-write laws only prevent you from selling or making a profit from using the copy-write material. I think a few of you are getting a bit carried away. Quizzical's post is sound advice, backed by some pretty logical (and should be obvious) reasons.

It's all cool, ese!' will not get you taken seriously, nor will it instill confidence in anyone that you are knowledgeable enough or professional enough to even get the project started, let alone finish it. That makes you precisely the sort of shady group that they wouldn't want to do business with.ДЈ) Having a long Internet trail of 'it's Sword Art Online' will be far more damning than 'it's inspired by Sword Art Online but a different, new IP' if you do get far enough along for it to be worth the bother for the SAO people to sue you and shut you can't stress enough how much you should heed Quizzical's post. So this way is far more likely to save you a lot of extra work than cost you a lot of extra work.Дў) If you want to buy something from someone, starting with, 'I just stole your stuff, and now I'd like to pay to get to keep it' will rub people the wrong way. It would be far better to make a game kind of similar to Sword Art Online first, and then try to get the copyright to convert it, for several reasons:ДЎ) Even if you eventually make a game that is publishable, you're probably not going to be able to get the copyright. I'd like to suggest that you're doing it wrong by violating the copyright first and then trying to obtain it legally later. Jumping directly into creating one of the most, if not the most, complex types of game available rarely ends in anything but tears. Get some experience under your belts, and get your team's name out there. If you want to be taken seriously, you need to make a few single player games first. There's perhaps a 1 in 5 billion chance that you'll be allowed to utilize copyrighted material, and furthermore once the copyright holder knows of your existence they'll make damn sure to prevent you from making anything even close to their IP. Despite its raging mediocrity (hey, at least it's not Bleach, Naruto, or Inuyasha), SAO is fairly popular, and ripe for monetization. Sorry, but the game is most likely doomed from the get-go.

Originally posted by Jean-Luc_Picard Originally posted by evilastro Just like thousands of other similar projects posted here all over the year by people who think they can just suddenly decide that they are a MMORPG developer. The pseudo-game mentionned in this thread - which is obviously just a project, most likely from amateurs - has like 99% chances of never becoming a real, playable game. If you want to really make a living from your game, which means selling it in most countries, you don't ignore copyright.

Why don't companies bother to attempt a trial to close them? Simply because the countries where they are hosted don't give a shit about copyright and about the country those companies are from. A good example is third party servers hiding in countries that don't give a shit about intellectual property. Some third party activities are TOLERATED, that doesn't mean they are LEGAL. This is actually wrong, not only in many countries but also in many US states.
