This ideology unironically needs to go mainstream.

@beardalaxy I wonder if it is an easy way to see your characters in big games like Smash but I think the AAA companies wouldn't do it even if they legally could because it is considered "unprofessional" for whatever reason.

@beardalaxy I don't know much about Touhou, but from what I've heard, the Doujin game scene is known for people using assets from other projects.

I don't just want people to be able to make fan games. I'm also 100% okay with people profiting off of my IPs. The only real concern is people making "woke" interpretations of my characters or using them for other propaganda purposes, but as long as it doesn't look like that I personally endorse those views, I have no problem.

Open-source games might be the closest thing to this right now, but not really. Sometimes, only the code is open (usually because it's a commercial property). Other times, you can only use the non-code assets and IPs for forks of the game. In most other cases, the lore of the game isn't even fleshed out. A lot of open-source games are clones of games that don't even have story like Minecraft or SimCity. If you check, most open source first-person shooters are just Quake III-like arena shooters.

>i don't intend on ever selling out. it would have to be a purchase of an IP that i would get a ridiculous amount of money from, enough to purchase a home and live without doing a single thing for the next like decade.

Honestly, I just plan on open-sourcing my IPs or releasing them into the public domain. Basically I will let anyone use my characters, settings, etc for free, without permission, and for any purpose (both commercial and non-commercial) just like how anyone can make movies based off of fairy tales. I think it would be interesting to see a modern IP that anyone can use and see all the different interpretations of it.

>i'd never sell an actual company, though. especially if i was still working at it. probably will never go public either.

It's not even about who owns your company. Nintendo is known for screwing third-parties in the past, such as trying to get DMA to convert Body Harvest (an open world vehicular combat game for the N64) into a RPG just to compete with the PS1 RPG lineup. That game ended up being temporarily canceled, only for Midway to pick up where they left off, and DMA when bankrupt as a result of that. Granted, this was when Nintendo lost a lot of third-parties and the only third-parties developing on the Nintendo 64 were smaller AA devs, but still.

Remember, if you own a small video game studio, STAY THE FUCK AWAY FROM NINTENDO!!! They will run you into the ground! Even if you get a chance to make a game with their IPs, it's just not worth it. They will then screw your IPs.

Next thing you know, you will be fined for having yard sales.
