Telltale Games

Sphaa · 07/02/2009, 02:29 pm

Hi there

I just wonder if there is anything we can do to minimize illigal copying of this game? Just tell me, I'll do anything!

I must admit, I do some illigal downloading myself, but I really really want telltales and Lucasarts to earn as much money on this as possible. A lot of money means TOMI 2 and MI2 special edition

knit your brows, shake your head, and wag your finger at them.... its pretty effective.

Haha

The best thing you can do to prevent pirating the game is buying the game

Laserschwert · 07/02/2009, 02:37 pm

And is there anything we can do against piracy IN the game?

**Jake** · 07/02/2009, 02:40 pm

Piracy within the game is wholly condoned and encouraged. Please seize ships, steal everything you can find, and try to temporarily ruin as many lives as you can in the process.

Laserschwert · 07/02/2009, 02:40 pm

Yay!

At least being a pirate at least gives Guybrush an excuse for being a kleptomaniac! Same can't be said for most adventure game protagonists!

Buying the game woudn't set the right tone for playing a pirate game, would it?

just kidding, already pre-ordered it, and I will buy it for the Wii also if I like the first episode.

Hey, after all you ARE downloading the game...

HEY, Telltale should change its looks to that of a Warez-site (which I don't know how it looks) for the launch, so that we feel like real pirates when we download the game

With naked ad banners and viruses loaded into the software?

Yeah!

There should be a big button with the text "to STEAL tomi push here", and under the button you should write, in small letters "it only cost 8,95"

*Irishmile* · 07/02/2009, 03:08 pm

Yeah the game is free but having the pleasure of clicking the download button is not.

virus off course not, but the chicks maybe...

I'm just throwing an ideea on the table: What if we just announce the companies about the location of pirated versions of the two games? Would that work?
Can TellTale or LucasArts do anything legal about it? (illegal version includes killing and hiding the body of the person that pirated the game... while giving him a complimentary MI badge)
Is there a WebPolice?

Or we could just find a good hacker and ask him to delete the content of certain ...locations.

syntheticgerbil · 07/02/2009, 03:45 pm

Is it okay to pirate the game within the game?

How about guilt and shame? That's part of what's kept me from illegally downloading any Telltale games.

And WOW it's strange to see Elaine like that.

PariahKing · 07/02/2009, 04:45 pm

Buy copies as gifts for friends?

Yeah them actually logging in and chatting with us kind of puts a little guilt in you if you DL the game
