Now you may find it inconceivable or at the very least a bit unlikely that the relative position of the planets and the stars could have a special deep significance or meaning that exclusively applies to only you but let me give you my assurance that these forecasts and predictions are all based on solid scientific documented evidence and you would have to be some kind of moron not to realize that every single one of them is absolutely true where was I?

There’s travel in your future when your tongue freezes to the back of a speeding bus.

Fill that void in your pathetic life by playing Whack-a-Mole 17 hours a day.

We as Smash fans take for granted the legal ****ery that probably goes on behind the scenes in regards to DLC character licensing in Smash.

Looking at what happens if you don't have a solid contract like DBD, where they've lost two playable killers(Albeit they were able to salvage 1 of them), really makes you appreciate that a little bit more.

That Nintendo check gotta be heavy

this is surprisingly accurate, minus a few details.

That and sales of their games from Nintendo only people when they bring stuff over might be enticing as well. I don't think you get motion like that with X-Box, and often times, Sony's the console default.

In Fortnite though those are just skins though, right? Like, it sucks that you lose a potential IP you like, but at the end of the day, every Fortnite player plays the exact same.

Meanwhile, in like, a month, you won't be able to buy Pinhead, meaning new players can never play as him and they won't have a good idea how to play against him.

Sakurai randomly dropping that Kingdom Hearts was "coming" to the Switch in the middle of Sora's reveal, I know Disney was laughing to the bank.

Oh no DBD's situation is absolutely worse, I was just agreeing with the sentiment that Smash's licensing not requiring things to get removed is a small miracle. Even Mii costumes are good.

And then there's Friday the 13th: The Game, where you can't play the game anymore period thanks to the franchise's own legal ****ery.

God I wish there was a game engine with no coding. Like you just set all your values with GUI elements.

I'm trying to learn the Godot engine and even parsing the tiny amount of coding the video is trying to teach me is scrambling my brain.

They’re getting better at it though. Obviously stuff related to the season itself, like special items and whatnot are gone, but they try to rotate skins and are making it clear that newer Battle Passes are no longer exclusive.

Even the older ones are starting to lose exclusivity, as new versions of older skins come out.

Collabs being locked behind Battle Passes was not the best idea though.

I think it's really only a problem with big ongoing games like this. Like... NRS licenses a lot of characters for it's games and they've never had to remove one after launch.

Hellraiser (Pinhead) and Stranger Things (Demogorgon)

Stranger Things ended up being re added

Try engines that allow for visual scripting. Godot has some add-ons that can allow for that (Orchestrator)

The Demogorgon and Pinhead.

For Demogorgon, Netflix didn't renew their license with them, and for a long while, Demogorgon and the characters that came with it were just unable to be purchased. HOWEVER, they worked out a deal with Netflix and got all of them back, seemingly forever.

As for Pinhead, the rights to Hellraiser got moved back to Clive Barker, the original writer, and afaik, he doesn't like/care enough about DBD to want to renew the license. Coupled with the Hellraiser NFT fiasco and it's all sorts of ****ed.

SnakeFighter64 · 2025-03-11T22:45:38-0400

Ok literally, the series I'm watching on it in GamesFromScratch, he spends like 95% of the runtime on the video I just watched explaining how to use all these if statements and variables to do movement and button maping with code. And then in the last couple minutes he's like "there's also this GUI element that lets you handle this very simply and with a lot less legwork" and I'm like... why did you do that part last?

I feel bad for people who have wanted Jason in DBD for years.

DBD's an actual horror museum, and one of the most iconic slashers is just, not in it due to a legal landmind.

Oh that sucks about Hellraiser. Hopefully they can convince him sometime. I mean... why wouldn't he want the passive income stream from it?

Legal ****'s weird.

Look at Freddy Krueger in DBD. It's not the classic Freddy. It's the one from the remake, and he's silent. He doesn't utter a single quip.

I wanna say "this is why we need to get rid of copyright" but without copyright so many of the things I love would no longer be... organized. They would just be... wild. No categories. No Pantheons. No shared identity between related franchises..... what is there to do?

And then there's Ghostface.

DBD techinically.... doesn't have the rights to Scream as an IP......kinda.... sorta... it's complicated.

They have the rights to the MASK, because the Mask existed before Scream, but they basically made Ghostface their own OC who just happens to act exactly like he does in Scream.

Maybe as a skin, I'm unsure, but the Ghostface you play as without a skin is an OC.

Which then reminds me that Mortal Kombat 9 got delisted because Netherrealm's contract for Freddy expired.

Chipping in on this conversation just to express surprise at the fact that the Ghostface mask was not an original creation for the movie.

For ****s and giggles they should put the Ghostface from Scary Movie in over the actual one.

Yeah, the mask predates Scream by a few years.

Man, I feel so mixed cause it certainly feels like Devil May Cry but they recast Vergil. JYB as Dante takes getting used to cause he voices Nero, sure, but Dan Southworth's more nasal voice is iconic and this new guy isn't even trying to sound like that

Believe it or not, but the Scary Movie mask is/was a cosmetic you could get.

I dunno if it's still available or not cause, live service FOMO ****.
