King of avalon using footage for advertising

[/!\Kapudd im Kopp]

King of Avalon: Dragon Warfare on play store is using gameplay footage from banished to advertise for themself.

Yeah I think he has been alerted to this and a few others that jave done this. 10 bucks says its a chinese company. They have odd attitudes toward making copies of stuff and stealing others.

Yeah Bummer

China has a unapologetic copy culture.

They copy everything. They don't innovate much anymore.

I'm not talking off the copying. Their general conduct is the epitome of ♥♥♥♥.
As an example, a coworker keeps talking of a group of chinese tourists that did eat like animals at the hotel he was staying during vacation. Next day their table was moved to the underground carpark as to not disgust the other guests.

Good thing at least it's not all 1.4B of them - It's gonna blow rather hard if it is.

But indeed this whole copycat business is disgusting.

Other mobile games are also using Banished gameplay footage in their ads. Hope the dev gets that fat lawsuit money

Makes me wonder whether they are copycating Banished directly or copycating each other just because it looked really neat.

Hm... no. Only thing they can do is ask google to kill the apps and remove the ads from rotation.

Yeah, king of Avalon: Dragon wars seems to have been removed. Now is king of Avalon: Excalibur wars our something like that

I just saw the ads for this ♥♥♥♥ game and they are using Shadow of War footage!
