Just because you said who you stole from doesnt stop it being theft.

Well, fine. But....

If I were to steal a bunch of steaks from the local grocery store, then invite my friends over to eat them, they won't be happy with my justification for stealing being that it's okay as long as they know where the steaks are from ...  :-\

EDIT: Calin beat me to it, more or less. :P

Icey has the same problem as 98% of YouTube users and 100% of Rule 34 pornography producers of completely misunderstanding the concept of copyright.

OK here it is for the 100th time! I use some of square enix stuff in my game,yes but i didn't say I created the game(if I scripted it) or the characters(if they were made by square enix) I say made by ICEY games(to show that I took my time into making this game & tweaking its story in AGS) & square enix(cause it either has content made by square or from square[meaning I drew it]) games like Pub master quest will have stuff in it from Final fantasy because it just follows in "some" foot steps of final fantasy.you may notice that money is called Gil,you may see a chocobo somewhere or maybe a moogle.The story has nothing to do with the final fantasy story,one name you will see from many final fantasy's games will be Cid, he will have a good reason to be in PMQ as well.This should show that I am no thief ans I am not getting paid for it so don't say I'm stealing from square this is just a FAN game with an original story, to bad that is not an option when i am uploading my game to AGS...it's fun to dream ;]

It's. Still. Stealing.

Just because you're not profiting doesn't mean it's not stealing. People get in trouble for sharing MP3s and movies, and they're not necessarily selling them.

Okay, I understand now! That's why I'm making my new game called Rick McCarthy's Hooker Killing Adventures! It's a new game by Drew Wellman and Calin Leafshade, since I use Calin's character and other content he owns but I put all that effort into the semen-covered McCarthy sprite and the hooker strangling physics, so it's okay, right?
Wrong. You would really be better off changing the first letter of the character names to "B" (Bloud, Bidus, McBarthy) and not even mentioning Sqeenix. There are legal ways to make a fan game, but your way is just wrong.

On Topic: The news was hiliarincredible! Sweet interviews, too. I'd like to see this be a more regular thing, but I can see how it would take a lot of work.

Did you credit them?  Did you include a "thanks to" section listing off all the unoriginal content?   Because making one statement that says "I made this game" implies you created everything, even the *included* material.

Why don't you actually make your own characters? All I see you doing is grabbing other people's work.

it may seem that way but every one in all the PMQ game belongs to me except pib i only include chocobos & moogles because they are useful just like pib but he will only be in PMQ.4.like all FF that included cid you would noticed that he is always a different character in each game same with PMQ gear games character will be named tyler but his last name will be Cid and at a job what do you call people by? there last name right

Don't you fucking dare! Ripping off lame generic Square-Enix characters is one thing, but don't go anywhere near our beloved AGS characters.

Pib does not deserve this shit!

OK, enough with the "Icey Games" troll. He's been making some efforts lately and I'm quite tired of reading about that in every thread.

About the AGS news: f******* hilarious! And makes my eyes bleed :-) It's because of those old people who stole all the vitamins from my free food.

I believe the developer has chosen not to advertise the game on the boards or on a website, prefering for it just to be known about when it's done. That may change, but with its release scheduled for the end of August, it shouldn't be long too wait for and see :)
