Dan preden so razvijalci rekli, da jim je aplikacija za koledar ukradla blagovno znamko, YouTube umika njihove videoposnetke in nedvomno pes opazuje njihovo domačo nalogo

Fntastic, studio zadaj Dan pred (odpre se v novem zavihku), je izdal še eno izjavo o stanju igre in njenem sporu glede blagovne znamke, ki je v teku. Fntastic je včeraj popoldne v kratki objavi na Twitterju povedal, da je njegovo blagovno znamko očitno ugrabila aplikacija za koledar, da so bili njegovi videoposnetki odstranjeni z YouTuba zaradi težave z blagovno znamko in da je trenutni imetnik blagovne znamke ponudil pogovorite se s studiem. Studio je svoj tvit spremljal s povezavo do odstranjen videoposnetek YouTube (odpre se v novem zavihku) ki—po Wayback stroj (odpre se v novem zavihku)— uporablja se za prikaz posnetka nekoga, ki igra The Day Before na računalniku.

The statement says only that the “so-called ‘owner'” of The Day Before’s trademark is the “creator of the calendar app”. Fntastic doesn’t explicitly name or link it, but I have to assume that the app in question is TheDayBefore (odštevanje dneva D) (odpre se v novem zavihku) od TheDayBefore Inc. Ko Fntastic prvi je objavil svoje težave z blagovno znamko (odpre se v novem zavihku), it looked like its game’s name had been nabbed by a South Korean applicant, and that app is južnokorejski izdelek (odpre se v novem zavihku), konec koncev.

So, does it look like matters are on their way to being resolved? Not really! Fntastic says that the app creator “ambiguously offers to contact him [sic] to discuss something, but what?” I’m not a copyright lawyer but I’d imagine what he wants to discuss is the disputed trademark, yet the tone of Fntastic’s statement makes it sound like the studio isn’t keen to enter that discussion itself.

The studio concludes its statement with a rallying cry: “We’ll fight. Power is in the truth,” which might have gone over better if Fntastic hadn’t burnt pretty much every shred of goodwill it’s ever had over the course of the last couple of months. As it is, it just feels like the studio has fallen victim to its own blunders, and statements like these come off as a desperate attempt to recast itself in the role of an underdog, an attempt which, predictably, hasn’t gone down well with its audience (odpre se v novem zavihku).

So it’s not going well, and it still res Zdi se, kot da Fntastic obupno potrebuje najeti ustrezno marketinško ekipo, namesto da izstreli izjave na Twitterju, kot je ta in the one it put out last week decrying “disinformation” (odpre se v novem zavihku). Ves čas mislim, da je Fntastic s svojimi nekdanjimi oboževalci dosegel najnižjo raven, a se nekako vedno znova izkaže, da se motim.
