That last part is, at this point, up to a South Korean court to decide.ĭark and Darker lawyers and devs continue to argue that the only similarities between the two games are those of usual fantasy tropes, such as wizards and barbarians. 'While the actual expression of plot, storyline, and characters certainly may be protectable, copyright doesn’t protect concepts.' 'Nexon claims to have created 'unique concepts, genre, plot, storyline, characters, and plans for the game' - almost none of which is subject to copyright protection,' the letter to Valve said. This of course is a response to Nexon's claims that Ironmace made a one-for-one recreation of a game the developers were working on a prototype of while working at Nexon.

You can imagine the issues that would arise with that. Having been removed from Steam due to legal issues with Nexon, Dark and Darker delivered its latest playtest via torrent.
