@why @kaia @FloatingGhost @hj @sun you can sell a game but pirating it is legal so it would not make you money
Without IP, creative work switches from creation >> sale to a comission system (comission >> creation) supplemented by patronnage (basically patreon).
This is already how most artists make money because they are not benefiting equally from the copyright system. An artist draws a picture and it ends up on boorus whether they like it or not, you can shut down reposts but one, it'll still resurface and two, you cut your reach. So what do you do? Comissions and patronnage.
Yes under this system, big productions like the film industry would not survive in the state they are currently. This is a feature, not a bug.
