When asked if he was sure that Albion couldn’t be copyrighted due to its historical context, he replied: “I don’t know if I’m honest, I don’t really know… I hope so. I mean you would think that the responsible person I should be, I would’ve spent the last six months in lawyers’ offices…”
Bold strategy, Cotton.
Ugh. I kind of wish you would just go gracefully into the background Peter.
So. He is about to be sued by Microsoft I suppose. Very bold of you to admit that it isn’t set in generic Albion but Albion the same universe that Fable uses. Those are two very different statements.

He passed gracefully 2 or 3 “games” ago. The quotation marks, because they were basically abandoned for a new gimmick, without delivering.
Godus had real promise, I played the early release. Absolutely never delivered on what it promised, implicitly or explicitly, though.
Brb, making a sequel to Sonic & The Black Knight and officially licensing it.
What? Sega can’t copyright Camelot!

This fucking clown…
He’s absolutely right! He’d be violating a trademark, not copyright.
Further, just because a name like that came be “copyrighted” doesn’t mean the rest of the game isn’t lmao.
If I made Nuclear D.C., a post apocalyptic game set it the Fallout universe in Washington D.C. as a followup to Fallout 3, I wouldn’t magically be okay just because it’s set in a “real” place.
So we’re getting Limbo of the Lost 2 afterall?
Checks Wikipedia…
Albion is an alternative name for Great Britain.
Okay? Why don’t we just change the names of the towns and their locations on the map? Problem fixed!

That new game (which I can’t remember the name of) looked so bad in the Gamescom opening show. Very gringe.
