-T- Member Posted June 12, 2008 Member Share Posted June 12, 2008 (edited) ?Limbo of the Lost (PC), the latest adventure title from the three-man team at Majestic Studios, appears to have stolen multiple assets and environments from Bethesda's two-year-old open-world RPG The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion (PC, PS3, 360).? While Oblivion arrived in 2006, Limbo of the Lost was just released this past May. GamesPlasma originally noticed the uncanny similarities between the two and has provided multiple comparison shots. source Edited June 19, 2008 by castor_troyuk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NightmarE D Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 WOW They didn't try hiding it at all really. They're going to be so screwed it's not even funny. Looks like all they did was slap signs and snow on everything. The character even looks completely out of place in all the shots. Just look at the snow on the ground. You can tell it wasn't meant to be there. "Dude...it's too obvious we stole this area from Unreal Tournament. Throw some snow around, they'll never notice. Dude...everyone will recognize these doors and walls from Wolfenstein. Slap a sign on it, they'll never notice. Trust me" :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kushan Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 The really surprising thing is that it took them 6 years to make that game. I know there's only 3 people that worked on it, but that's still a very long time - if you're stealing assets like that, you could knock a crappy game together in a matter of weeks. Obviously, their thievery skills are about as good as their programming skills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kushan Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 You guys realise that chances are, this was all done deliberately? I mean games this ****ty get released all the time, yet everyone's focusing on this one and that'll probably quadruple sales of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
