Gaming on Yik Yak | They need to stop letting people patent entire fucking game mechanics. No nintendo, you’re not allowed to claim ownership of the concept of summoning things to fight for you, just like you don’t get to claim ownership over the concept of a side scroller

When I first heard “summoning” in a video about it I immediately thought of Yu-Gi-Oh

The absolute worst example of this IMO is Namco patenting the concept of having playable minigames in loading screens, then never doing anything with it. Think of all those years up to now there could have been more than a spinning logo in the corner of a screen to interact with, all of that fun detail, lost to time now that loading screens are practically nonexistent in modern AAA gaming.
