Su Jinyu said: “Store Manager, should we sue this company!”

Jia Peng is also nodded: “Yes Store Manager, send a lawyer’s letter!”

Chen Mo shook the head: “Useless.”

Su Jinyu stunned: “Why? Store Manager, don’t be too busy to draw conclusions, let’s ask a lawyer to ask.”

Chen Mo said: “The borrowing of rules of the game is difficult to constitute plagiarism. The best thing to determine in game plagiarism is two aspects, one is similar to art resources, and the other is the same as the content of the rule document text. If neither of these two aspects can determine plagiarism , So basically, defending rights is difficult.”

“So, even if you send them a lawyer’s letter, most of them will be thrown into the trash.”

Su Jinyu said a little bit dissatisfiedly: “However, this game has done too much like “Plant Vs. Zombies”, as long as people with clear eyes can see it!”

Chen Mo said calmly: “But this is not enough to convict them.”

Su Jinyu was a little angry, but he couldn’t refute it.

In fact, after traversing to parallel world, Chen Mo had already conducted some investigations on the game industry of this World, especially about the “game plagiarism”, and also found several cases.

Similar to the previous life, parallel world determines that game plagiarism is mainly in two aspects, one is art resources, music sound effects, text content, etc. The other is the game’s basic rules document, probably equivalent to the source code of the previous life.

These two aspects are best to determine the plagiarism, as long as the actual evidence is obtained, one verdict will be made.

However, it is difficult to determine whether plagiarism is the most critical part of “gameplay”.

In the previous life, the legendary board game “Legends of Three Kingdoms” once filed a lawsuit against “Dynasty Warriors: Unleashed”, arguing that “Dynasty Warriors: Unleashed” constitutes “plagiarism of others’ works”.

However, “Dynasty Warriors: Unleashed” argues that the work done by Game Designer, including determining the design direction, design framework, and design details, belongs to the idea of ​​copyright law and is not the object of copyright law protection.

In terms of rules of the game, “Dynasty Warriors: Unleashed” proposed that the entire design idea of ​​”Legends of Three Kingdoms” also imitated the Italian Card Game “bang!”

In the end, the incident came to an end with Shanda’s withdrawal.

There are many examples from the previous life. The game industry is full of “learning” and “plagiarism” incidents. Except for individual cases with sufficient evidence, most of the “plagiarism” is inexhaustible.

Of course, this is not all because the law is not sound. A very important reason is that the boundary between plagiarism and reference is very difficult to define in itself.

Even Renowned’s “Monument Valley” in the past life is suspected of excessively borrowing (plagiarizing) “Infinite Corridor”.

Of course, the so-called “learning” is called “plagiarism” but it is “inheritance” or “tribute”.

The same is true in parallel world. Although people’s awareness of genuineness and anti-plagiarism are much stronger, they are also easy to infringe and difficult to defend rights. The benefits are much lower than the costs.

Therefore, there are also some cases of “plagiarism” in parallel world, which will eventually disappear.

Chen Mo took a brief look at the content of the game “Lunar Defense Wars”, the art resources and music sound effects were all renovated, leaving no shadow of “Plant Vs. Zombies”.

In terms of rules of the game, although it is similar to “Plant Vs. Zombies”, it is clear that this Designer is a design document rewritten from beginning to end. In many ways, it has been specially modified to consciously avoid legal risks. .

It can only be said that this LimitFly Interactive is probably a habitual offender, and it is clear where the legal boundaries are, and it played a perfect edge.

Therefore, Chen Mo knew that if he went to sue, although it must have been one-sided in public opinion, basically it was cheap.

……

However, this does not mean that Chen Mo is helpless about this, which has long been within his expectations.

Chen Mo downloaded the game, entered “Lunar Defense Wars”, played 2 levels.

“Don’t worry, this game won’t catch fire.” Chen Mo said.

“Ah? Why?” Su Jinyu asked.

Chen Mo handed the phone back to Su Jinyu: “You play understood after playing for yourself.”

“Can’t fire? Are you sure about Store Manager?” Wen Lingwei frowns saying.

Chang Xiuya also nodded and said: “Yeah Store Manager, the picture of this game is pretty good, and it’s free.”

Chen Mo said firmly: “I’m sure it won’t catch fire.”

Jia Peng hesitated and asked, “So, Store Manager, do we still go to bad reviews?”

Chen Mo smiled: “Anyway, follow you.”

Chen Mo finished, turned around and walked to the second floor.

“Store Manager, don’t go, you haven’t told me why this game won’t fire!” Su Jinyu said.

Chen Mo turned around and said, “I still have to plan a new game. As for why this game won’t catch fire, you are now a Designer. You should have your own judgment.”

Chen Mo went upstairs.

Su Jinyu curled one’s lip angrily and started playing “Lunar Defense Wars”.

She is a little curious, why Chen Mo is so determined, “Lunar Defense Wars” can’t fire?

Others are also curious.

Jia Peng wondered: “The Store Manager seems to be full of confidence, how can he know that the game will not fire?”

Wen Lingwei said: “It may be because of the rating. You see, everyone is boycotting this game spontaneously. Even if this kind of word-of-mouth game is free, how many people will play it?”

Another boy said: “I think it may be because of this charging method. When Store Manager did “Plant Vs. Zombies” at that time, he did not use the advertising space charging method. He must have his own consideration.”

Jia Peng hesitated and said: “So, do we still go to bad reviews…”

Wen Lingwei said: “Of course, come, everybody and I will brush the bad reviews, and uninstall after finishing brushing!”

Su Jinyu thinks everyone makes sense, but always thinks that Chen Mo should have other reasons.

Su Jinyu decided to play this “Lunar Defense Wars”.

In the first test, the game guides the player to arrange an energy supply station at the moon base, and then installs a machine turret to defeat the attack race that comes in.

In second test, a new insect race begins to appear, unlocking new defense facilities.

The third test is still constantly unlocking new gameplay…

Su Jinyu played through the game one by one, and already wanted to uninstall the game when playing the third test.

It’s so similar to “Plant Vs. Zombies” that Su Jinyu feels like playing 2 weeks of “Plant Vs. Zombies” adventure mode. Many of the content that has been tired of playing for a long time, “Lunar Defense Wars” also Guided her to finish with care.

“Strange, why the content of the game is similar to Plant Vs. Zombies and the quality of the game is not bad, but I can’t play it at all…”

Su Jinyu couldn’t help thinking.
