I've been called

[stray osprey]

It's my favorite video to send out of the blue. Used to just spam in my old group chat when none of us got nothing to say.

[leaden prairie]

I mean this with upmost disrespect that the stalker 2 is a cash grab. The endings suck. I rather go play stalcraft than play this load of a bs game this is and I don’t even like stalcraft. This why the old Devs left the company to work on Metro. Not only that. What yall did to MISERY was not cool and only supports what I believe in more. Making a false DMCA claim is just disgusting behavior. Misery being nothing like Stalker and not being base in Chernobyl. How about other games that almost exact copy’s of stalker. I think it’s more of a political thing that going on here. I only hope GSC loses more money for such a trash game they made

[worthy agate]

You don't even know if the DMCA claims are real

[leaden prairie]

Will the claim is enough to take misery off steam

[worthy agate]

You don't know if GSC asked that takedown

[stray osprey]

There's this one owl video but it looks like I can't find it

[leaden prairie]

Will they did it anyways under the company name

[worthy agate]

you literally don't know if GSC requested that takedown

so why don't we all wait for an actual statement from GSC before we start trying to get our discord pvp on?

[leaden prairie]

I’m not going for a pvp but stating an opinion. I love stalker and it says a lot but playing stalker 2 and the storyline was not good.

[worthy agate]

Misery guy was smart enough to nuke half his discord server, including his initial statement. Maybe that's a sign that things aren't like they seem.

I don't particularly care what you think about stalker 2, I'm talking about waiting for a statement regarding the whole misery deal

[leaden prairie]

Then it’s the same for me. I don’t care what you say to me. Because that’s what is an opinion is about

[stray osprey]

@thorn cove

[worthy agate]

right, that's why I'm talking about factual evidence regarding a claim you have made that you could not have possibly confirmation of

[leaden prairie]

Not only that. I don’t know but they haven’t seem to make announcements to the stalker community that they made that claim. Just for the misery community. But I could be wrong and I need to fact check that

[worthy agate]

look at it this way: if you wait for an actual statement before jumping the gun and starting making accusations based on absolutely nothing but a discord message from a 20 year old that hours later deleted it you'll be able to claim to have more periodistic integrity than some major videogame "news" outlets

[leaden prairie]

However the game is off steam and I wouldn’t be surprise when GCS did make that claim. I’m not trying to poop on the whole stalker community because I do love the original stalker games or show any hate.

[worthy agate]

The forth one would be that asset were made by Misery and they have proper licenses. It’s like Tarkov and Arena Breakout. Two complete different games in different world concept but with the same idea of a loot extraction game

Being Inspired to make a game does not equal to copyright

[leaden prairie]

Not being political while talking about political stuff. Every gaming dev are entitled to a political opinion, an ideal of belief. whether it’s right or wrong.

[drifting musk]

@cinder loom will you scratch my butt

[earnest inlet]

I'm wondering that too. Does Steam require any kind of verification when it comes to DMCA-takedown requests or is it all automated and reviewed later? Because if it's all automated, then that further adds to the possibility that this whole things is fraudulent.

@cold pike Tejas, you have some actual history with GSC. On a comment I made on the subreddit in regards to this whole situation, I made a mention about how the timing of this whole thing was honestly rather suspicious. However, a few minutes ago I got this response:

"Serhiy Grigorovich is famous for black PR tactics like no one else. So this isn't such a conspiratorial theory after all. It's possible that Ievgen decided to use a couple of his brother's tricks to draw attention to S2 ahead of the console release and the DLC announcement. Because the whole story looks insanely suspicious."

Do you (or anyone else reading this) have any idea what the actual f*** he's talking about? I know Serhiy as a person is mired in controversy, but I never remember reading anything about "black PR tactics", let alone that he's supposedly famous for such things.

hellish landscape

🌆

[worthy agate]

I'm fairly sure steam does like every other website which is immediately take down content if they receive a takedown request that's even remotely credible until it's been confirmed at least. Since this was done Friday evening, someone impersonating gsc would be enough to ensure that initial phase is stretched as long as possible.

At this point I'd caution about anything you read in reddit or wherever and to wait for an official statement

[tiny dew]

Been like that for months

[worthy agate]

Then again, I'm sure even if gsc denies filing a takedown the tinfoil hats are already out regardless, so we're in for the long run anyway

[earnest inlet]

Well, Jeruzalem and a couple of other people don't even think we're going to get a statement and that there's nothing to discuss.

[silk zinc]

It barely does. Bug traps, grinders and the fire anomalies, sure. Other then that, completely different. In the books, you don't go into the zone. In the game, you live in the zone.

[earnest inlet]

They absolutely go into the Zone in the book.

[worthy agate]

Yeah krez, people give a rat's ass and we're sorry to interfer with your gif spamming but this is the only channel where this can be discussed outside of the shitholes that are the steam discussions or reddit.

[earnest inlet]

No kidding. You see that one response I quoted?

[tiny dew]

You give a flyin rat's ass?

[worthy agate]

I hope there is, honestly people acting like this doesn't warrant a response are imo just blindly taking gsc's side with 0 proof for it, actively or by omission

[tiny dew]

Ottoman you're fake

[worthy agate]

I'm not going to stand for fanboyism one side or the other, and it's clear the silence is already hurting gsc's image

[silk zinc]

Smugglers from time to time and by the end vulture had his little training seminar picnics, sure. But the 'IPSF' of the book is afraid of dying so it lights to spot and shoot. They don't go after you.

[earnest inlet]

My take is linked up above.

[tiny dew]

Real game fights fake game, real game wins

Yeah, I think he sums it up pretty nicely

[earnest inlet]

Thank you. I spent a good amount of time digging into this whole thing when putting that together.

[worthy agate]

I'd recommend jumping to the third link for just the skinny on it but yeah, that's pretty much all that's come to light on the matter

[earnest inlet]

But my bulleted list man...

Honestly, the most insane response I've gotten has been this gem from Reddit:

"Serhiy Grigorovich is famous for black PR tactics like no one else. So this isn't such a conspiratorial theory after all. It's possible that Ievgen decided to use a couple of his brother's tricks to draw attention to S2 ahead of the console release and the DLC announcement. Because the whole story looks insanely suspicious."

[worthy agate]

And for further context, this is what the misery dev claims to have happened:
https://www.escapistmagazine.com/news-gsc-dmca-takedown-misery-stalker-clone/

[earnest inlet]

The link unembedded?

[worthy agate]

Yeah I did that, it's annoying.

[earnest inlet]

Ah.

[worthy agate]

Now eurogamer is parroting that as well. Jesus christ

[earnest inlet]

But back to that response I quoted real quick, I know that Serhiy is notoriously mired in controversy, but I have no idea wtf that guy is talking about in regards to "black PR tactics".

[worthy agate]

If there was a "news" site I'd expect a level headed take on, it was EG

[earnest inlet]

This is like...the third or fourth person I've encountered who basically says "Serhiy was scum and therefore Ievgen and anyone else related to the family is too.".

Like, Jesus Christ, that's not how siblings or family works.

Yeah, that's surprising from EuroGamer.

[worthy agate]

I honestly have no knowledge on either but I'm not surprised people would take advantage of the situation to shit on someone they don't like.

So ynow, boulder of salt with that one

[earnest inlet]

I mean....Serhiy did do a lot of shady and bad things, but I just don't understand how that leads to jumping on Ievgen. As far as I know there's been zero evidence that he's in any way like his brother.

But I don't want to keep talking about GSC employees like this, feels kind of inappropriate.

[worthy agate]

I'm just shocked as to how you wouldn't reach for comment on both sides, or at least throw an "allegedly" in there

Like, they're just reporting on gsc filling a takedown when gsc hasn't confirmed doing so

[earnest inlet]

Oh, so none of these publications have even tried to reach out to GSC?

[worthy agate]

I mean idk if they tried but they don't state it at least

They just copypaste misery guy's discord rant and say gsc did the takedown and off they go

[earnest inlet]

What I don't get is why alleged professional journalists seem so quick to accept this as absolute truth. I've already made my suspicious clear about the whole thing; the timing and everything else just seems off.

[worthy agate]

To all this I'll also say that gsc's silence is concerning.

[earnest inlet]

To be fair....it is only Monday and all of this only happened on Friday.

[worthy agate]

I definitely want to hold out for a statement but I'm still standing by that if things are like they seem I'll be very disappointed in gsc

[earnest inlet]

What if there really was/is stolen assets/code/etc. in the game though? A DMCA-takedown would be justified in that case.

[worthy agate]

I'm not going to give them a free pass on a Nintendo move just because the misery guy is an objectionable human being

[worthy agate]

If there is a reasonable amount of material, and they reached out to the misery dev requesting it be changed, and enough time was given, sure.

Enough so it's clear it wasn't just a pretext.

[worthy agate]

Burden of proof is now on gsc i guess, seeing how misery guy is not reliable.

[earnest inlet]

Screw it...

@obsidian brook Mol1t...can we expect a response in regards to the whole MISERY DMCA-takedown situation or no? I'd appreciate a response.

I've gotta leave for work. See you folks later.

They're surprisingly easy to find and not as expensive as I thought they would be 😂

[earnest inlet]

I've considered that as well. If the whole thing is legitimate, then there would likely be a lot of behind-the-scenes stuff going on that we simply aren't privy to and probably never will be.

I've also noticed that aside from that one video from GameWithDave, none of the S2 channels have put out anything either. For GSC's sake, I'm hoping that they do make a statement at some point, because as of right now, the whole situation is dealing some degree of reputational damage against them. Major gaming journalism sites of picked up the story, and I'm beginning to see YouTube coverage on it as well.

@cold pike Sorry about the ping yesterday, just figured you were the best person to ask for that kind of question.

[frank bison]

no , but the first time i saw the first trailer i thought "Nah haha there is no way this game is real , this is a cinematic" i still think this is unimaginable fidelity, movement and cinematic scenery to be real. Until i see a real gameplay my brain cannot believe it

[plush cloud]

With each new material I cant now understand what this game is possibly going to be about. Zombie rednecks first, then police officer gameplay, then soldiers in brutalist power armor

Seems like a mess and game built about two to three concepts

[frank bison]

that also could be a problem , i wonder if it would be more of a stress test for videocard than a game

[digital wigeon]

The cease, and desist on MISERY is a little much. They’re taking nothing away from stalker, that’s very disappointing of GSC…

[tepid matrix]

I wonder when the game comes out, will Stalker fans start review bombing with ratings on Steam for revenge or not?

[digital wigeon]

Most likely, I love stalker, but it’s not fair. Misery is a good, and fun game in itself, it takes inspiration from stalker, it doesn’t copy it. Also misery was already released into EA, I own it, so idk if people can still buy it or not. Last I seen it was removed by steam for infringement.

[tepid matrix]

At the moment it has been removed from Steam for copyright infringement. Now the question is what will Steam and GSC decide?

[digital wigeon]

These are supposedly the grounds for why it was labeled infringement. That seems like a reach to me… A BUILDING is grounds for infringement???

And someone playing a guitar? Unless I’m oblivious, and don’t understand what exactly is happening/what I’m looking at.

[digital wigeon]

I forgot about the frame with Mary on it, that’s reasonable for sure.

And what’s up with the heli, is it the color design, or just simply that it’s the same heli from stalker?

[tepid matrix]

What about the melody of the song?

[tepid matrix]

it is exactly the same. it is not known what it does in the game files

[digital wigeon]

I didn’t pay any mind to it tbh

And keep in mind, I’m pretty neutral in this, I wouldn’t want someone stealing my shit either, hopefully they can come to an agreement.

[tepid matrix]

I think if you put a song by some author and started selling the game, it would be quickly removed. It's one thing to put a cover on YouTube, it's another thing to sell the product.

[tepid matrix]

most likely after removing certain things it will be released on Steam, just backstage conversations between companies about rights and permissions

[digital wigeon]

Misery devs state that nothing is taken from their IP, and that all is original. Idk how true that is, but that’s their perspective.

And yeah, they’ll have their little backstage talks, work out the kinks, and hopefully green light it for sell again, I mean 250k+ copies have already sold. That’s a lot already, and new people were still catching wind of the game.

[tepid matrix]

then why did steam block them and what are these files doing on the network? ask them to publish a full steam report

[digital wigeon]

You’re not wrong lol, those files are 100% there, you’ve shown that😂

I don't think they copied everything 1 to 1. but still they will have to remove certain things that GSC has the rights to. such as music, character models or other things that they did themselves

If that was true they wouldnt remove everything and guilt trip

Great game

Always stuck with me ever since I played it years and years ago

[desert folio]

Ive always meant to play this

[heavy crown]

Definitely worth it

It’s been a while since I played the first time and it still holds up

@sinful panther idk aside from the opinion of the MISERY dev, the takedown does seem kinda weird considering games like stalcraft or chernobylite exist. On the other hand games like stalker or fallout have a certain identity and that shouldn't be copied, especially not for slop so idk.

Anyone know any good DayZ STALKER RP servers?

Ive done it for about 4 years, but im looking for something new.

[stray osprey]

KCD2 was also free for a bit, 5 days I think.

Anything new on the Misery situation?
What does GSC say about that?

a guy named Klean on youtube is putting together a rather elaborate server, not out yet, but I would keep my eye on it if its something that interest you.

[heavy crown]

DayZRP has always been the go to

Although iirc there was a bit of drama a while ago

Typical for RP communities though

[worthy agate]

And silverfish and into the radius and zona origins and convrgence

Then again if what's being argued is licensed content being boosted, just the fact that it's similar to stalker is kinda moot

I will say that the fact that gsc has yet to put out a statement is increasingly worrying.

[bold quarry]

Project silverfish is goat

Liked ADACA and project silverfish shows that dev is much more experienced

[heavy crown]

Not really

It’s not some huge controversy

There’s a handful of people crying about it online

That’s not a priority in the grand scheme of things lol

There is a few people talking about it and a couple of YouTubers who are desperate for likes and subs who jumped on the chance to make brain dead half assed “who dun it” videos

Overall, as nicely as possible… Nobody seems to really care anymore

So it’s just going to be addressed as and when, if at all. It’s not really their responsibility nor are they obligated to release a statement about some half baked indie game. Valve are conducting their investigation and that’s all there is right now

[bold quarry]

Welp... At least we still have...uhh

Active matter?

Not talkin' about stalcraft

Can't force myself to try it out

[worthy agate]

I mean all stalker games are getting review bombed to hell and news outlets including the escapist and eurogamer have put out stories straight up claiming that gsc has filed a dmca takedown without so much as reaching out for comment. To me, if GSC did not do it, there would be absolutely no reason why they would take the free PR hit

not to mention the reddit and steam discussions becoming even more of a radioactive wasteland than their standard.

so to me now this is less of an "if" and more of a "why" situation.

[desert folio]

Yeah the news outlets running with it isnt helping at all which gsc could fix easily but they arent. Why?
Steam is still getting nuked with misery discussions and the reviews (only a couple hundred or more) are tapering down, however the top post in Reddit this morning is about Misery, so people haven't forgotten

[sacred idol]

Hey I have a great idea let's kill 6 million ultramarines

Yeah Yeah that's a great idea how did you come up with that?

I got it from when I was smoking spore mines

If you all wanna smoke spore mines reach for my spore mine launcher

ohh there it is ohhh yeah give us some of that!

haha! maybe another time now let's go to macragge and steal their objects da geneseed

[heavy crown]

It’s not forgotten but review bombing is hardly a massive cause for concern considering there’s a new platform launch just around the corner

All in due time

But GSC are not obligated to do or not to do anything, it’s a case of wait and find out

In an ideal world we’d all get our answers when we demand them, but alas

Euro gamer is also a piss poor outlet tbh

Easily one of the worst

[desert folio]

True

[bold quarry]

I acquired vanilla float dr. Pepper

It's time to check how shit it is

My god who tf likes it?! BLEEEH

[violet kestrel]

"The GSC is under no obligation to make statements to you" NDT

Also

Hey GSC, I have 2 questions regarding the future.

1. ) Will we be seeing a vitals on/off toggle for the hud anytime soon
2. ) How much more challanging will be new difficulty? Story you an absorb hits no problem, Stalker is pretty well balanced and Veteran you only take 2 or 3 shots before dropping. Will the new master difficulty be even harder, or more realistic?

[worthy agate]

#📜┃ask-gsc

[worthy agate]

not someone who follows videogame news or reviews, but to me eurogamer was one of the most even handed ones. Which isn't saying much, but I definitely put them over RPS, escapist, IGN, gamespot, and the rest

[split oak]

Anything new about the misery drama?

[worthy agate]

Nothing on either side. Which in itself could be taken as confirmation that GSC did actually file a dmca, but who knows.

[split oak]

I'm staying optimistic that it's just an imposter trying to spark drama

[worthy agate]

if that was the case I don't see why gsc hasn't come out and stated that they didn't do it.

[split oak]

Maybe preparations to either show why it can't be them. Or a full list of proof that something has been stolen.

[worthy agate]

at this point I'm just hoping that they had a good reason to do it and that they gave misery guy enough notice and time to do it. But I guess there's a chance that they didn't do it but don't want to come out and say it.

[split oak]

I just don't see why strike the game, aside from the "slaker" folder everyone is saying exists in the Misery files

[worthy agate]

People say that there's a song and some assets that could be considered as a reason for a dmca

If gsc does hold the rights to that song, and they reached out to misery guy (particularly considering it's a 20 year old solo dev) and gave him time to change things, and he just decided to ignore it, that to me would be justifiable.

[gaunt prawn]

Let's not bring that's stuff I guess.
Better to wait some official info

[worthy agate]

hey, I'm the first one hoping this is not the case.

[gaunt prawn]

Just in case, cause its may be seem as violation of rule 5

But I'm happy that this drama is quiet right now

[split oak]

I'm hoping that it's just an impostor dude

• no pay for poopy work

[velvet coyote]

Asset in "stalker"
Heli in game

(in game i mean in trilogy

[bold quarry]

Not surprised

[thorn cove]

yup, I mean I don't need to get pay by them. I was doing my fun job but that fun job out to become bad.

[velvet coyote]

Like
Its literally heli with Ukraine marking

[thorn cove]

[split oak]

So like. There´s some videos i mean. I´m not really doubting this as i don´t know how it all works but like. Ya know. Images can just be edited or maybe even the folders?

[gaunt prawn]

Read an answer

If they change - game will return

[split oak]

I know

[bold quarry]

_ I was a mod of the DnD group finder/hub for DMs and players and that shit was exhausting _

[velvet coyote]

You just don't want to admit that half of this game is theft in one way or another.

[split oak]

I mean i just want more solid proof then an image

Also not doubting it as i´m sure I´ve seen that heli in GAMMA somewhere. Just like. I´m sad :v

[velvet coyote]

Because gamma use stalker asset and actually mod???

[gaunt prawn]

Gamma under stalker guidelines for content creators afaik

[split oak]

I know?

I only played Gamma and S2

[thorn cove]

Play the OG Stalker series, NOW

[split oak]

on it

[split oak]

Do the remakes run any better? All i heard is that they perform a bit weakly

[thorn cove]

get the original ones, "remake" kinda bad after I played one of them

[split oak]

As of FModel i apperantly have Fortnite installed. Funny. Gonna have to purge epic store from my drive

[thorn cove]

feel the slav jank in your vein

[bold quarry]

Last time playing remake soc my game decided to thanos snap my artifacts

[bronze elm]

The EE are bad. They improve some visual stuff as well as the engine, but the AI upscaling of the textures makes them feel muddy, and they've removed some stuff, as well as introducing new bugs. Its messy, stupid and a missed opportunity

[violet kestrel]

Femgirl then?

[bronze elm]

Even the games at vanilla are better. Some think they are a buggy mess, and sometimes they can be for some, but I've made at minimum 2 playthroughs vanilla for each game, never had a game breaking bug

At most, ragdolls flying or shit like that

[thorn cove]

woman, just woman...

[split oak]

Old doesn´t have to mean bad

[bronze elm]

Fr

But yeah, I promise that they arent as broken in vanilla as some make it out to be

[split oak]

Best of luck to him?

If you guys wonder, the developer is accusing those who posts proof as liars

[split oak]

It´s asking me for some key to decrypt stuff. But since GSC said why the DMCA I believe it more

[shy narwhal]

Context: the MISERY video is from Oct 28th so it is weeks before the DMCA claim, no way that it was edited, and the files are actually there

The developer is basically calling those who post proof as liars :)

Instead of well, apologising

[split oak]

MISERY: https://youtu.be/QydY_gCYHOY

STALKER SoC (guitar track 8): https://youtu.be/iFgk_WVZDBg

[shy narwhal]

the guy doesn't talk, it's a guy that posts videos of MISERY guitar tracks

the video is weeks before the DMCA drama so there is no way that it was edited

And the track song actually exists

[split oak]

I thought you meant the trailer so i wanted to see myself

[shy narwhal]

No, i am talking about a guitar track that was stolen from STALKER SoC

[shy narwhal]

As you can hear, those are the exact same tracks

[split oak]

Nearly identical, yee

[shy narwhal]

It's identical

Not nearly identical

[stray osprey]

Kuro the detective

[shy narwhal]

The only change is in the noise which is probably due to the game engine change or sound in MISERY

[split oak]

Maybe even just taken a video from youtube and coverted it

[shy narwhal]

As you can see, the developer is a liar and lied to their own community, instead of admitting their guilt

Dude is he really arguing with you now?

[shy narwhal]

he did but then locked the thread and warned me for advertisement

[shy narwhal]

^

[split oak]

Quite amusing how he tries to deny it all now

[shy narwhal]

yep

[neon vale]

Did gsc give specific reasoning

[tiny dew]

Kuro advertising?
RIGHT TO JAIL

[shy narwhal]

@idle wadi @obtuse warren

[shy narwhal]

yes

[neon vale]

Publicly?

Crazy timing for a bot

I dont get whyd they target misery for that though when stalcraft uses far more

[shy narwhal]

MISERY still stole content (breaking GSC DMCA/EULA) regardless

The fact remains that they still have stole content

[split oak]

I mean sure. Though they have to start somewhere i guess?

[thorn cove]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-cute-pet-gif-20694970

[neon vale]

I mean yeah but i wonder how stalcraft got away with it but misery didnt

[split oak]

Away with it ~For now~

[tepid matrix]

as far as I remember stalcraft had a radical change at some point. maybe they even agreed on it and after that there was a change in the lore, the names of things, etc.

[split oak]

Didn´t know that

[tepid matrix]

I suspect they agreed on this at some point. You can see this by the way stalcraft drastically changed the names of things in the game, the names of artifacts and other things. Maybe they were asked to do this, or they knew what would happen.

[cold pike]

Maybe they cooperated and did not act like spoiled child, like the Misery Dev did.

[shy narwhal]

Can you get me a screenshot of the MISERY Discord mod claiming that those soundtracks does not fall under GSC Copyright? @split oak

[split oak]

imma look

[tepid matrix]

well please note that they didn't get a strike. on the other hand was stalcraft given away for free or do you have to pay for it? because this plays a key role too

[shy narwhal]

https://archive.fo/2jL13 @cold pike

[split oak]

Microtransactions

[split oak]

On the Misery DC or your steam comment?

[tepid matrix]

microtransactions are not necessary. that's where the difference lies

[split oak]

Yet a way to pay for stuff that "they didn´t create" unless they made some agreements i guess

[shy narwhal]

misery DC

General

[tepid matrix]

in the case of misery, there is a direct sale for access

[tepid matrix]

selling a copy of a game and giving it away for free are slightly different things. The second is closer to piracy but the first is punishable by law even more

[velvet coyote]

Bcs they do it not that clear

Like
Literally dragged assets its 100% claim

[split oak]

You can´t make money of anything that includes copywriten materials, be it by paying for it or paying for stuff about it tho or am i wrong?

[split oak]

Also that´s all i could find. Most got deleted i guess

[shy narwhal]

scroll down

[shy narwhal]

should be under here or slowly above

the part where the mod says that GSC does not own copyright

[tepid matrix]

that's right, if piracy is theft. then here they can pull something more terrible than theft + an attempt to make money on it by passing it off as their own content. according to the law, the author has the right to demand the removal of this or the original things

[split oak]

There really is nothing more. There´s just posts about dwarf energy generation and more bs from kids

Can´t i stream my DC so you can look yourself?

[shy narwhal]

I got banned

But either way that should be more than enough

I sent it to some of the youtubers that are making videos regarding MISERY DMCA situation

[split oak]

Come into talk1

[bitter junco]

Guy must’ve gone full panic damage control once he realized he got caught, probably wiped as much shit as he could to try and salvage his reputation

Whatever scraps are left at least

[tepid matrix]

Im not sure but todays im seen thats post translate to ukrainian language

[shy narwhal]

Yeah

I can stream Discord in Discord so you can have a look about with me. Just need to say where to stop for pics

[shy narwhal]

sure

[bitter junco]

This is probably one of the most beautiful cut and dry cases of FAFO I’ve seen in years

[tepid matrix]

I saw a screenshot of a post where someone said that GSC doesn't have the rights to this and that it doesn't have a copyright.

[shy narwhal]

can you show it

[tiny dew]

This Misery crap is old news. MOVE ON for chrissakes...

[tepid matrix]

I have to find it and it's also translated into Ukrainian so I can't see the original.

[velvet coyote]

I 70% sure it be texted by russian who use goggle translate lol

[tepid matrix]

but if this screenshot fits I can look for it

[velvet coyote]

Oh stop
I understand wrong kinda

[stray osprey]

woah, 2 mods in vc

[bitter junco]

‘Stop chatting about GSC’

Oh they knew they were screwed from day 1

The young age of the dev makes this funnier as it’s a kid having a breakdown over being told ‘No’ essentially

[stray osprey]

Damb, I wish I could watch the tea being streamed

[rigid minnow]

lmao, the rly did that? HAHAHAHAHA

[velvet coyote]

He not 19? 🤔 Or 17?

[tepid matrix]

@shy narwhal I'm not sure but find something like this

[stray osprey]

uh oh, not reddit

[rigid minnow]

Stalcraft had to literaly change tons of things in it exactly bcs of GSC wanting them to so no, they didnt get aways with it

[bitter junco]

19 I believe

If he acts like a kid, he gets called one in this case

[cold pike]

https://tenor.com/view/kewk-bassface-speaker-sub-subwoofer-gif-14956099

[velvet coyote]

Like
Maybe i wrong but u can create game in steam only if you adult?

[bitter junco]

18 and up

I guarantee one reason he freaked out so bad is iirc his game hadn’t hit the 30 day requirement yet so all of his money was still held by Steam

[velvet coyote]

Oooo
That good :)

[tepid matrix]

you cannot sell a game on Steam if you are not an adult, because the Steamworks agreement requires users to be at least 18 years old to enter into a legal contract.

[bitter junco]

Brother he’s 19, he meets the requirement

[desert folio]

Close to $2 million up in the air

[stray osprey]

dayum

[bitter junco]

Also that’s not what I meant, steam holds the money until a game has been up for a certain amount of time

[tepid matrix]

So it means he is not child

[bitter junco]

Did you not read my message or something

[tepid matrix]

Just to be sure 🙂

[velvet coyote]

Like
You can handle criminal justice after 16
Its mean in 19 you need have some brain

[desert folio]

Apparently not

[bitter junco]

Now the question is will he actually listen or will he dig his heels in

[desert folio]

This back and forth is just ridiculous

"No"
"No you!!!!"
Im almost sick of the word proof

Reason: Bad word usage

[velvet coyote]

Well, it their problem

[bitter junco]

Ok so they are literally all kids then is what I’m gathering

[desert folio]

Like how hard is it to say "we messed up and we're working on it."?

[bitter junco]

Like, this is some ‘my dad is right’ type shit

[stray osprey]

This whole thing just continues to get funnier

[velvet coyote]

All that time in my head play clown music after every new news

[desert folio]

@split oak can you post the "the game is perfectly legal. and you are allowed to sell others property if its under parody" comment?
🙏 they muted me but I'm still in

Ayo is that nVidia sort of crap on the top right corner?
Whatever I did, how do I disable it, lol....

[stray osprey]

ctrl and f

Hit those two keys at one time

[neon vale]

At what point does it become parody or transformative

[tiny dew]

Man fk nVidia

[desert folio]

@split oak the Roadside picnic book from the 70s is still under copyright today and that was 50 years ago. There is no way in h*ll there isn't some claim to those firelake (even if disbanded) songs

[tiny dew]

Oh shit, it's ALT+R

[neon vale]

Thank disney for that

[stray osprey]

but last time I had that happened, I though alt + f made it go away, I guess my pc was being slow

[neon vale]

I think its weird that gsc didnt send a warning at all and immediately took the game down

[tiny dew]

You were tryna lure me into a dangerous hole, my guy

[desert folio]

I wouldn't send a warning either

When I post a video of Stalker 2 gameplay and I am visiting Sidorovich,
and Dirge for the Planet is playing on the radio, Youtube gives me a copyright warning.
Someone should suggest that the Misery Dev upload his Misery gameplay music to see the same copyright warning.

[desert folio]

VestingBead said a while back that he didn't see the assets as proof, but that got removed...
Here's that screenshot. Check the channel for me ❤️

[bitter hearth]

I remember the misery demo, when you play the guitar it had same songs stalkers play in the real stalker
