No, this will never get before a judge. They will settle or one of them will simply give in. We will never get a legal verdict on this.I believe we will find if it was legal very soon - looking how quickly it's moving. I don't think a guy with a legal advice would be that stubborn being wrong there.
He didn't share any code. We have to be very specific there. That would be very illegal.
This is it. I think many people, myself included, expected them to finally act in our favor, especially after some devs spoke so openly about it when it happened. That's why, apart from a portion of this forum and a few paid or unpaid die-hard supporters, there's so much negativity toward them.
You are right, I was sloppy saying the code had been disclosed. It is the result of the code JaWoodle disclosed, and then refused to remove resulting in TFP deciding to take action.
"Act in our favor"? Who are we in this sentence? I certainly don't have any skin in the game. As far as I am concerned, this is between a youtuber who refused to not disclose proprietary content he had received and the owner of that content. TFP hasn't treated me badly at any point in time. Just the notion that they could treat me badly is ridiculous.
I have zero understanding of people who claim TFP has done anything to them by not developing a game the way they want. Gamers feel entitlement because they ave played 1,000 hours or so, because the game in is development, and because the developers have asked for opinions. Instead of just playing games they enjoy and leaving it at that, they behave as if this somehow matters to them and their lives, causing all kinds of drama and conflicts. It's just a ■■■■ing computer game. I miss the days when kids would buy a game and play it and then move on. Now people with minority opinions can meet likeminded in echo chambers on the Internet to discuss and magnify their minor grievances and complaints, rally behind their youtuber heroes who have monetized gaming like soldiers behind a general, and organize campaigns to try to hurt game developers who they feel have done something against them. Fans are the worst.
