I think he's just falling for this obvious publicity stunt. Yes, I'd fight it, but I wouldn't try to get attention from the media.

I dont think it's a publicity stunt, he's getting sued! I think Notch has a point, "Streets of Rage" is alot like "RAGE". So what's the difference between "The Elder Scrolls" and "Scrolls"? It might be the economy, everyone needs money these days.

Uh? What?

Notch/Mojang doesn't need publicity.
Bethesda are getting BAD press for this.


How exactly do you figure this is a publicity stunt?

A lawsuit is a very popular and efficient way to gain publicity. I'm sure bethesda realizes they have no case. The only reason they're suing is to gain publicity because when they lose, well, there really isn't anything for them to lose.

Have you seen the news? There is no such thing as bad press. This is simply a celeb scandal.
