Your individual opinion is your own but the numbers say it all. Bethesda makes popular and loved games. Perhaps some people feel the opposite of you, they don't get enough of say Fallout or Brink but Minecraft grew dull to them.
I completely agree, its a huge matter of opinion on something like this. But when it comes to things like numbers and sales, Zenimax overall wins by a long shot.
I used to love them so much but then they started publishing crap games and then this stupid crap.
A PRIVATE COMPANY DOES NOT HAVE THE RIGHT TO OWN A WORD THAT THEY DIDN'T MAKE A GAME NAMED AFTER.
Their game was ELDER SCROLLS, not SCROLLS, JEEZUS! I DIDN'T EVEN THINK OF THE ELDER SCROLLS (one of my favorite video game series) WHEN I HEARD ABOUT SCROLLS! THEY ARE NOT RELATED!!!!
Oh yeah, something on a smaller scale happened in my class.
In a class project, my class and I were put into teams to make an ad for an imaginary shoe, with posters, radio commercials, slogan, and all that stuff.
It turns out, two teams had a really similar slogan, "Bolt to it" and "Leap to it."
There was a class argument. :dry.gif:
It was really ticking me off when they were just arguing that another team "stole" their slogan, but seriously, couldn't they just go with it? :angry.gif:
Seriously, either Mojang or Bethesda could just change their projects' name, but why?It's just a name!
this is totally retareded. If the jury says notch is guilty, I will rage. You can't OWN a word, it's not like they made it in the first place. and I agree with chaklong, when you hear "elder scrolls" you don't even thimk of scrolls in specific. If you ask me, bestheda is just being a bunch of big babies.
SUE ME BITCHES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Don't be stupid. if you even had a thought of what was going on you would know that they aren't even suing. It's a ****ing cease and desist. Either way, they couldn't sue you for saying the word, by any chance do you even have a ****ing clue to what a copyright is? Here's a link to the definition bro, read it up. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copyright
I like both companies (fallout on one end and minecraft on the other etc..) but this is weird although understandable (somehow)
Minecraft is a best selling game (even in its unfinished state) and is going to release its full version on November 11. the next installment of the elder scrolls (skyrim) will be released on November 11 too. (i checked). Bethesda might feel a bit threatened about that so when they heard about Mojang developing a title called Scrolls (not a very good name by the way) they may have thought something like:
What if it´s a super success like minecraft.
From there i think they decided to start a legal action to force Mojang into changing the name of the project to protect their income.
And by the way as previously stated you CAN trademark words. (unfortunately)

Don't bother with someone who uses the phrase 'whitepride' as his name.
Furthermore, as far as I know, intellectual property rights require creatorship. Bethesda is the creator of elder scrolls, not scrolls. Also 'elder scrolls' is the trademark, not 'scrolls'. To see a danger of confusion is not comprehensible.
Why not bother? i dont think a name means much to be honest. Eitherway, its a joke. If you think its either crude or cruel thats just a matter of opinion.
There only doing this because they are jealous that all their games freakin suck when minecraft is a major success. Their pathetic spineless failures who just cant get over the fact that minecraft is awesome. AND I MEAN COME ON, SCROLLS IS A REAL WORD THEY DONT FREAKIN OWN IT. I HOPE THEY LOSE THEIR LAWSUIT AND GET COUNTERSUED. AND IF UR GONNA ASK FOR A CEASE AND DECIST THEN WHY NOT GO AHEAD AND DO IT FOR EVERY GAME WITH SCROLLS. LETS SEE.....
LOOK LIKE BESTHEDA IS CURRENTLY HOLDING 5165651 LAWSUITS

Yes of course, minecraft towers over companies like Zenimax. Look at sales and tell me what you think. You may think that they "freakin suck" but uh, most people love Zenimax. They're one of the biggest and best in the buissness, so faggot, please get a basic sense of what you're dealing with. Or even some facts before you post an utter **** useless comment that makes you look like a a complete idiot.

If you find the way i treat people is offensive, i think thats a personal problem. But you know, that may just be me. Also, you seem to be denying the fact that you were just called out on your inane chatter and stupidity. Why so?

Im not really denying it, i know i may be completely wrong and if so well then who cares? Lets all just wait for minecraft 1.8 and be happy and play for hours on end.

Well, now atleast you're acknowlegeding it. But seriously, the fact of how ignorant you people can be is just sad, dont post ******** that doesnt make any sense. No need for it, and it just shows your idiocracy and stupidity.

Typing fast? Hell, that took you some time. I'm typing plenty fast and have very few mistakes if any. And yes, I obviously know what im talking about.
You sir, are one of the only people I've seen with common sense so far on this forum. You and Tampashrew. The numbers are the facts in this case.
