Settlers of Catan::wow gold
Game sequels are very common in the video game industry, with the excuse that as technology improves, the games will improve (well, sometimes...). Sequels are “safe”, because the market is already established for the brand, be it Halo or Civilization or Metal Gear Solid. It’s not only in the video game world with its sequel-itis that we see the power of branding in games. “Expansions” for games (board and video) are much more common now than 30 years ago. This may derive partly from including less in the first game than we used to, but it’s also because people are more likely to buy a known quantity. Sequels are much less common in tabletop games, though we do see several games marketed that use the same basic systems, and there’s an entire body of games using the “Settlers of Catan” brand. Why do the Final Fantasy games share that name, even though some have nothing in common with others? Because “Final Fantasy” is one of the strongest brands in video gaming. Why is Blizzard so successful in the video game market? Mostly because they take all the time they need to make their games, but also because their name is such a strong brand that people will buy their games because they were made by Blizzard. Of course, Blizzard has also produced strong game brands such as Warcraft, Diablo, and Starcraft. The MMO World of Warcraft is itself an expression of the power of branding, with its setting derived from a series of three standalone video games.
Seemingly in response to having lost the wow gold license wow power leveling to operate World of Warcraft wow gold in China, online firm The9 aion gold has launched a website for its upcoming, similarly titled World of Fight.
The similarities between Blizzard’s hit MMO wow power leveling and The9’s latest don’t end at its moniker though. While we can’t comment on wow gold the actual gameplay, as Gamasutra points out both the website’s and the game’s official logo wow power leveling (seen above) are incredibly similar to the Chinese version of World of Warcraft.
Assuming World of Fight is a blatant copy of World of Warcraft, one wonders what sort of legal recourse Blizzard wow gold might have. China has long been known for its, um, “relaxed” copyright laws, and given the country’s inherent nationalism, I can’t see a Chinese judge ruling in favor of an American firm over a Chinese one.
Many games are “based on” well-known films and books (and even other games). Unfortunately, games based on movies, whether video or xyyxxxqqx tabletop, have a deservedly poor reputation, in part because so many are produced in insufficient time so that they can be published when the movie is released.
