Imagine getting mad over this when you took a character that doesn't belong to you and used a copyrighted property to...

>Yongyea
>Sucks Neil Druckmann's and Kojima's cocks

like?
never noticed bugthesda to add anything new or good to game

They pretty much ripped off autumn leaves wholesale for one of the Far Harbor vaults

to be fair in EULA there is usualy part which say that anything you create based on game or in game, give devs exclusive rights to use it
maps, mods etc.

>but it was still a dick move on Bethesda's part
No, it wasn't. I'm so tired of retards trying to act like things like copyright and trademark laws don't apply to "the little guy". Yes, they fucking do. Don't be a talentless hack that infringes on other people's IPs. It's not that hard.

user it's not a discussion about legality, it's a discussion about not being complete cunts

im sick of this chink and his brain dead npc followers.
Stfu you drama queen retards

This bootlicker really out here defending million dollar companies. (Although right now they're probably on the hundreds).

If it was something original i'd agree but this guy took bethesdas artwork and changed the face and the finger so I dont understand why they would credit someone for making minor edits

Still doesn't change the fact that Bethesda are greedy and lazy cunts.

>all these sjw snowflakes ITT
You accepted the EULA, deal with it

>bethesda's artwork
you mean interplay's artwork sold to bethesda?

We can't afford to give that artist a cut.

It doesnt matter, the guy who made the "OC" is a talentless hack and spend 15 minutes in photoshop so hes automatically in the wrong

You mean some employee of Interplay's artwork which Interplay took ownership of? They don't really have a better claim than Bethesda. They also just paid someone for it.

I literally covered this in my comment. It's fan art is legally covered. As for that matter is porn. That's why Blizzard getting pissy at Overwatch porn, at least at first, was hilarious.

EULA and ToS are biggest bullshit i have ever seen, in EU i doubt they could even enforce it

not gonna argue with that

You don't know what equity means do you?

>EULA

While it is technically legal, it is a complete dick move to do so.

No one brought him up except you. He's living rent free in your head, fuck off.

Pretty sure that'd still mean neither he nor them are legally allowed to profit off the artwork, unless either gave permission. I didn't bother reading into this case, but I'm assuming the guy didn't submit it to any sort of contest, that's usually how companies try to cover that.

>It's fan art is legally covered.
No, it's not. It's absolutely copyright infringement and illegal. Especially if you are selling it. Don't make the mistake of thinking the fact that most companies turn a blind eye to it most of the time makes it legal. It's expensive to sue someone so companies are only going to take legal action in extreme cases.

I've spoken to the guy bitching about his concept getting stolen. he's a total faggot

Nah, I think the artist owns the rights to any element of that depiction of Vault Boy. Just not to vault boy.

>No, it's not.
It LITERALLY is, kid.

Elaborate? What did he say?

>No one brought him up except you.
you mean beside the OP's pic being a thumbnail of one of his latest videos, for which he always make thumbnails in the same style?

>stolen

the fucking thread is yongyea shilling kys you fucking chink cunt All you do is fucking shill your clickbait drama channel on here.

It's worse. It's trademark infringement and that's far more dangerous.

Imagine how much of a faggot you would have to be to take a 3D model from a game, put it into a frowny face and crossed arm pose and then claim that is your intellectual property. No.

That doesn't automatically make the thread about him. The topic is about Bethesda taking someone else's art. Stop trying to derail this thread into e-celeb drama.

Vault Boy belongs to Black Isle, based artist

>I think the artist owns the rights to any element of that depiction of Vault Boy.
No, he doesn't have the rights. That's what copyright is about, having the right to do things like make that depiction. He doesn't own any aspect of it. The courts usually either formally award ownership of the infringing material to the infringed party or they just order it destroyed. The artists has no rights to any of it.

>draw a copyright character
>omg you like stole my concept
The internets full of dumb mongloids that think stealing others work is fine because they are theives.

It's illegal for Bethesda to sell this guy's work without his consent because he has legal claim over this particular rendition. The guy who made fnaf ran into a similar problem when one of his devs used a fan rendition of one of the fnaf characters in promotional art because it looked like official fnaf material. They ended up removing it. While the guy who made that rendition can't profit off it because fallout boy as a concept is a legal property of Bethesda, Bethesda can't made any profits from that guys image. However, it looks like they're copying the concept, not the image itself, which is perfectly legal.

>his concept getting stolen
crappy 3D model....

to be fair guys making porn usually put some work in that, instead of crappy figure

>open MS paint
>take an existing art
>modify it to have a frown face
>add a middle finger
>lol i made this

>to be fair guys making porn usually put some work in that, instead of crappy figure

It's really not a matter of degree.

Don't you understand? If we gave that artist compensation we'd have to raise the price of every video game to $90 a pop. You wouldn't want that, would you?

it's nothing about this specific situation, but he's just a complete autist that will go on large rants about random shit completely unrelated to the conversation being had at the moment

That's exactly how it works, yes, you own that specific render you made. It's your creation. You can't really do anything else besides saying "I made this image" but that statement in and of itself is true and legally observed.

>nendoroid
Produced by GSC not Bethesda, if anything good smile company """copied""" it

is this the kind of stuff that you can't ctrl+c Fallout 76 stuff into Fallout 4
but you can create exact copy from scratch?

So the artist should be charged with a civil offense for infringement of trademark correct?

You're not a retarded, inferior, bitter communist who is mad he's a failure? Right?

That doesn't happen right?

>The guy who made fnaf ran into a similar problem when one of his devs used a fan rendition of one of the fnaf characters in promotional art because it looked like official fnaf material.
They were removed for PR reasons, not legal reasons.

>you must pay an artist for fan art of a design he copied because a japanese company made a toy with a similar expression.
You "people" are fucked in the head

>that time a literal schizo from /vp/ forced a jap to nuke his account because he was reposting his art without "permission"
I swear it's like being a massive faggot is a requirement for becoming an artist.

If he didn't make profit out of it yes, but he did and he's the real dick here, leeching off popular things.

Not him, but there are so many canon variants of the Vault Boy that they would first have to prove that the one copied in the fan work was the copyrighted Vault Boy just to have a case, and no sane judge would do that.

Not him, by the by.

no correlation

EULA means jackshit in any first world country.
Sorry burger.

Fan art doesn't infringe on shit you retarded cunt

>they would first have to prove
It's civil law. You don't have to prove shit, just demonstrate more likely than not. This is quite clearly not a case of coincidence.

I said not me twice because I'm tired.

I remember reading somewhere that works of artistic merit can't be subject to copyrights, I'm pretty sure that covers sculptures and such. It's why all of those patreon guys never get sued for drawing princess peach with a 20 inch cock and charging money for it.

Hahahhahahhahahahahahhahahahahhahahahahhahahahahhahahaahah

tfw you have no arguments so you have to phrase the situation as sparsely as possible

I can't even tell what is going on.

>This is quite clearly not a case of coincidence.
It's literally not. It would escalate because a judge would refuse to rule on it once presented with the other examples I'm talking about..They would escalate the case.

isn't that just literally an edit?
