"Legally fine", here we go, back to that chestnut
Since you don't even understand the difference between ethics and legality/law, and constantly mixed them up as if they are one and the same, you should probably study up on that
The basics of ethics is understanding that the law isn't foolproof

Amazing how you can still try to sound so high and mighty yet you have continually ceded ground to every one of my points until now you can't even argue anymore so you're just trying to condescend. Delightful isn't it
"accusations", "they did it but it's fine", "it's legally fine", to "you meanie"

No need, I studied it in Uni, you seem to be the one with really shaky understanding of ethics, probably should look back to school for that

But will the courts think I'm being snide? If I can legally get away with it then I'm not snide

Before you lean into the "comparing copying to murder" straw man again, the severity of crime wasn't the point, and you know it. It's whether something still happened and is bad even if the rule of law doesn't catch you
Which makes your "legally okay" argument completely crazy

"Murder", so you admit that OJ probably did it, which means that just because someone can get away with something legally, it doesn't mean they didn't do it?
Then you're basically conceding defeat on your "plagiarism only exist legally" stupid argument, thank you very much.

Your own argument leads you to that conclusion, but now that you know you look ridiculous, your fake decorum has came off and now you're just throwing snide digs, as expected of someone whose only morals consist of "yeah but if you can get away with it legally it's okay"

It isn't the crime anyone is comparing to, disingenuous as usual. It's comparing that getting off in court and not legally liable for something = it is acceptable
Anyone with a decent head on their shoulders can see that, but you choose the extremist straw man because you know you have nothing

"makes plagiarism is" is poor grammar
LOL, so you're saying, "it's only bad if you get in trouble for it in court", that is the opposite of ethics, you do know ethics by nature accept that laws has a limit, therefore ethics exist to cover what laws cannot, right?

Hilarious to talk about ethics when your whole argument is, "yes they did it but legally they can get away with it", your ethics is the same as OJ Simpson getting away with it in court, so it's fine.
No one who understands or cares about ethics ever use only legal grounds to justify themselves

Yet again, "ethical violation" is your clutch, which is an entirely narrow and ridiculously specific domain you wanna put yourself in, because you know you have no ground to stand on otherwise.

My video game history is fine, the only thing poor is your morals and lack of understanding of what plagiarism is
You eem to think plagiarism only exist in a legal court of law sense, which is a ridiculously narrow box you put yourself in because you know you have no real argument otherwise

What I'm trying to do is encourage you to see past your buzzword, technicality playing, legal loophole semantics mumbo jumbo, and understand how silly it is that you can't see the difference between transformative inspiration vs straight copy pasting akin to Palworld.

Ah yes it was Super Mario RPG they copied the parrying from and claimed they invented and innovated that, and that it was a unique thing they did, I'm sorry that makes everything so much better

You literally called them "accusations" that aren't "credible", then when I offered a list they copied from, all you're arguing about is the semantics and legality on whether it's acceptable in a legal sense, hence the "ethical violation" buzzword.

Btw yet again you are trying to say they didn't do it, yet at the same breath admitting they are copiers, all you're arguing is the semantics and legality of it, which sounds more like someone guilty trying to worm their way out of it through technicality. I didn't know you were their lawyer

You seem to only think of plagiarism in legal terms, copying from something without their consent then passing it off as your own unique innovation pretty much checks out, which is what E33 did. They copied from Paper Mario then claimed the parrying is "unique and innovative"

Basically what you're saying is that they can get off on a technicality, spiritually it's still plagiarism
Just like how Palworld isn't sued legally for 1 to 1 copying the pokemon designs or fortnite chests, it was sued for the patent stuff. Doesn't mean they didn't plagiarize the pokemon designs

Just because you plagiarized from a lot of different sources rather than exclusively one source doesn't make it more acceptable, in fact it just makes it more brazen.
It's the new capitalist way, nothing transformative, just pure stealing from as many sources as you can.

It takes from pokemon designs almost 1 for 1, BoTW gliding, fortnite chests and resource harvesting (even has the same digging animation), Ark survival building system, etc etc etc etc
Similar methodology to the way E33 did it with their game, copying bits and pieces and stitch it together

You haven't argued any of the examples I cited, your defense is "yes they are copycats but I'm arguing the semantics of the word plagiarism instead because I can't actually defend the copying"

Your own admission that they did copy from other games makes it credible, you cannot admit that they did copy, try to justify it and say "so what everyone else does it", then the next breath says "these accusations that I admit are true aren't credible actually", that's stupid

Not to mention they even copied the Nier Automata A2/9S standoff at the end, cinematically shot for shot. That was laughable
Being "inspired" is fine, but inspiration still needs transformation, the difference between a plagiarist and a creator is one transforms, another just copies. E33 copies

I don't remember Metroid needing you to collect the same type of smithing stones and go to a blacksmith to upgrade your weapon up to certain levels, which is the system Dark Souls had, which E33 just copy pasted from
