theyll have back ups so why would they pay these peopel's ransom? It wont stop CDProjekt from making a new game, thy still have the source codes and Graphics engines. It shouldnt be a big deal for CDProjekt. Im not a fan of all these NEW patents happening that bar other devs from using current systems like the Nemesis system and improving on it and now with GTA patenting THEIR NPC system. Its becoming a joke. I hate these stupid legal things. How can systems be improved if game devs start patenting everything? I reckon this patenting issue is more important thn alkl this CyberPunk sht, we get it, CyperPunk wasnt as good as what we all thought.....yep....onto other news though. This patenting idea that game devs are following through with now, is to me, a serious creative hindrance for future devs.
