I agree with your latter paragraph but not the former. I'm really not liking these overbroad IP claims. This is almost worse than the Nintendo/Palworld stuff, which was already pretty bad.
Tencent may also be a villain, but if Sony gets its way here, it will be bad for games and other forms of expression.
I agree: fuck Tencent, but Sony winning sets a pretty bad precedent.
Did Capcom sue over God Eater? If not, they should if Sony wins.
And what's next? FromSoftware suing the entire soulslike genre?
