This morning's news about extensive copyright claims against a multitude of game-related videos on YouTube has prompted a lot of discussion about the best way for publishers to work with the community. United States copyright law is gray in a lot of places, but there is one thing that is certain. Content creators have a duty to vigorously defend their intellectual property. Failure to do so isn’t a gesture of kindness, it’s the bullet that becomes suddenly and unexpectedly lodged in the foot.
Did You Know Gaming explains the issues of YouTube in the modern day, crowdfunding books and creating a new board game.
According to a LinkedIn post, Bethesda and Xbox Game Studio representatives will meet up with Deep Silver Volition employees.
That's pretty cool, but didn't they just lay of 10k as a whole. Reportedly some from the gaming division even.
Confused in pa.
This is called good PR. And an opportunity to hire veterans over scrubs.
Not to call them scrubs but yeah some veteran devs are more welcome than others with less experience
You can hire veterans all day long but it’s the talent Microsoft lacks.
It was mostly outside of gaming. Most of the game studios weren't affected besides 343i and Coalition from what I recall
But of course. Just look at the latest Saint's Row....that is exactly the level of quality and writing that Xbox strives for these days.
There u go. This is way more acceptable than buying up studios. Buy individual talent until you strengthen your already owned studios. 👏🏽
Service currently being tested internally.
Wasn't this touted as a feature of Stadia previously and never came to fruition? I swear I remember a whole thing about "watching a youtuber play Assassins Creed? Just hit the embedded play button and immediately jump to exactly where they are in the game!"
It was then it came out in beta i tried it then like alot of google stuff poof gone into the either.
Now its back no doubt behind there youtube paywall crap after you buy the game sense they supported stadia so well you know this will get all that support also.
google should be more focusing on their google play games to function on pcs already.
i dont wanna wait any longer haha
Windows 11 can do that right now

Though yes janky it would be nice if it was from google but like m$ and its xbox pc app these trillion dollar companies take there time on everything.
Makes sense. Youtube is...a very big platform and been around very long lol. If I could go to a game streaming tab on my youtube app instantly, that'd be cool honestly.
too bad they won't. costs too much for them to do so...
Yes they should a better, and alternative ways to protect their copyrights
So yeah, Twitch...
I think they have every right to say that they don't want someone else making money off of their work. Whether that is a smart decision or not is for another topic. It must be weird for some of these publishers/developers whose games get ripped by these critics to see the critics costing them sales making money off of their work. Some will argue that the YT critics put in their own work on these vids, which may be true but they are still making money off of the copyrighted material. If not, this wouldn't be a problem and they could just do a review using their own originality with no copyrighted material.
That said, let this serve as a reminder that publishers/developers are in a business. Can we stop trying to sacrifice rights on our end as consumers to "support the developers." When it comes down to it, they're looking after their own interests. We should look after ours.
Pulling down video game walkthroughs and background music isn't "protecting" anything. Whoever's taking down the vids is a troll.
