King Vidiot posted:Gun Media should just release content updates with legally-distinct renames, like Mason Ex and his map The Brundel. I wonder if they could get guest killers ala Dead By Daylight. Cropsy, Hatchet(Alex Crowley?), Leslie Vernon. The one downside I can think of is so much of the gameplay is made to be extremely Jason-centric. Like the sweater, Pam's head and all that. People would probably have a fit though, screaming about how the lore is different for Cropsy or whatever.

Right now the licensing agreement that lets Gun Media produce the game is with the current rights holders. If the judge were to rule in favor of Miller, there's a possibility that the agreement may suddenly become null and void. The legal order to cease work on the series until the suit is settled keeps them from wasting a bunch of time and money on work that may no longer have a contract in place to allow for its publication.

Tinfoil Papercut posted:I understand what's happening - I just don't understand why things have to be so stupid. Licensing agreements tend to be very strict about how things can be used in which formats. If the judge unexpectedly rules in Miller's favor and this gives him any form of creative control (in the worst case, granting him rights to Jason Voorhees and Pamela Voorhees), it's likely that the licensing agreement that Gun made with Horror Inc. will cease to exist. Unless a new agreement could be hashed out, there's a possibility that even the sale of the game would have to be stopped. That being said, I don't think it's going to happen. I haven't gotten to read the contract Miller signed with the Manny Company back in the 70s, but assuming Cunningham's argument is telling the truth they've probably got a tight case to maintain the rights. But it's perfectly understandable that the judge wouldn't want Gun and other companies to waste their time and money on a bunch of work that may suddenly be under an illegal contract.

In the game of American litigation, there are no winners. Except the lawyers, who always win. Back to more pressing matters: Who has the elite Discord bot skills?

Tinfoil Papercut posted:In the game of American litigation, there are no winners. A woman hit my car while playing on her phone. She sued me because my car was past the stop sign so I was "at fault" (the sign is literally 14' behind the actual intersection, so of course my bumper was past it in order for me to see oncoming traffic). My insurance company lawyer pushed our court date back so long that the lady had to settle and would owe her lawyer out of pocket because after the settlement date her attorney fees would just keep going up while there was a cap on how much she could sue for. So I really want to thank my insurance company for sticking it to that motherfucker, BUT, end of the day, the insurance company payout was a write-off, she lost money on a bogus lawsuit, and I got dragged through hell over a bogus lawsuit. Both attorneys, though, made a small fortune and didn't even have to set foot in a courtroom. Our legal system is hilariously efficient at achieving its actual purpose.

HEY PC CAMPERS! We're going to be announcing an upcoming Goon event which will take place on and around the 4th of July - I need your help in brainstorming some fun "goon achievements" which may get incorporated into the event! Try to think of things which are fun / funny / skillful but also will balance each other out. Ridiculous goon-isms welcome. Some things I've come up with so far as possibilities:

I'm confused. How would the rights dispute being ended in their favor make it impossible to start development again? Were they required to throw out all of their assets and they can't restart once it all ends?

A. Beaverhausen posted:I think it's just they gotta get paid somehow, so they gotta move on. I mean yeah, you can do work on something else. But unless you trashed all your assets or the court order said "Also you can never work on the game again even if no contracts change from the ruling", there shouldn't be any good reason for just canceling all development forever and never touching it even if you can.

At this point I'm just hoping the studio can stay alive until the rights issues are sorted out, and then resume making content for the game, maybe relaunch it or something, with some new stuff. but who knows at this point what they'll manage to do sucks they got screwed over like this

It isn't cheap to run a game studio or make games so they have to move on to their next projects instead of paying people to sit around and wait for a court case that will probably be purposefully dragged out

The hundreds of people who keep insisting the lawsuit is some kind of scam on the part of GUN and Illfonic are really stressing me out. Every time I try to check on upcoming bug fixes, there's a couple dozen of them screaming about conspiracy theories, and they're so convinced that the evidence is on their side.
