I cannot see how they can reasonably copyright the idea of having characters remember you which is basically all the nemesis system is. There are many ways to implement it that wouldn’t violate patent, of course it’s in WBs interest to not nose that one around too much
You can try, but WB will troll you in court for years and drown you out on legal fees to prove it isn’t a violation of a patent. So, most consider it not worth it.

Yeah, imagine if there was an area of software development where people could freely view, copy and modify each others works.

That would imply there are no devs or even entire companies working on open source software and getting paid.
Just because you work on open source, doesn’t mean you don’t get paid.
