During a recent developer livestream, the Skyblivion team shared some promising progress updates on their ambitious remake and its path to completion.

And that’s completely valid. However, under the current legal framework, that simply isn’t the case.

Why are you using a state’s laws to determine your own sense of morality?

Personal beliefs and the laws to which you are upheld are two different things. I didn’t say I agree with the law. Why are you assuming my personal beliefs?

Because you said what they say is important is more important. That sounds like a subjective opinion to me, not an interpretation of the law.

Well, if they own the IP, under the framework under which we live, their will is factually more important. 🤷‍♀️

No. Importance is a metaphysical construct, not a legal one.

Right. So whoever did the update at Bethesda found it important to do that update. The developers of FO:London found it important to release their mod. If you ask the Bethesda employee they’d think their work was more important. If you ask the FO:L team they would say their work was more important. How do you determine whose importance was more important?

I think Fallout London adds more to the game and was wanted by more people. Democracy and utility seem to be agreed on this case, and those are the two measures I use to determine importance.

And I’m going to say more people wanted official ultrawide support. Now what? Are we supposed to poll every time someone wants to do something? If I feel like important for me to jaywalk and I step in front of a car and the driver feels it’s more important for them to not stop what then? Are we supposed to block traffic to until we figure out whose action is more important so they’d have right of way?

This is why we have laws, because everything does not need to be looked at case by case and sometimes we can collectively agree that one way is always better than the other way.
