And as a side note, I’m not under some delusional fantasy that my “collection” is ever going to be worth millions, lol.
Mine is purely for my own enjoyment. And you know what? Every steelbook I buy...I open it immediately and put the game inside
If I wanted every one of my games to have a custom case just because I liked the look, I’m gonna do that.
My point here is that until there are hands on these custom/fakes, nothing is concrete. No, I don’t think they should replicate someone else’s artwork and confuse buyers. However I love the option of a custom case. TLOU2 for example, although I did preorder it, it is boring (they had sooo much beautiful art to choose from). But by directly purchasing from FantasyBox the buyer knows what they’re getting. It’s the people that resell on eBay, that’s the issue. That’s where there’s no transparency.
Is it still plagiarism and support it if you buy those fake steelbooks.
