Fyi have you ever heard of a Mockbuster?

Copying wasn't meant in the nonliteral way of stealing an idea, it was meant in the literal way of remaking something in the image of its previous incarnation. So, he is copying his project, he's just not stealing his project. Also, mockbusters are irrelevant because they take an artistic license on the idea given by the real blockbuster, OP is making the same thing as Bones just in a different way.

Seriously people get too worked up over this lol

I don't see how you keep missing my point. I didn't say it's disrespectful to post a topic. I said it's disrespectful to take something someone is putting a lot of time into and remake it in a short amount of time because you're dissatisfied with waiting for it. You mixed two of my points together; the point about making the topic was that he is indeed looking for recognition for his project.

maybe people are sick of it? or sick of waiting?
hes restarted the project a dozen times over the last 6 years and maybe 1 was completed. but it was small and at the scale of what op wants to do. and there is no existing save (probably)
titanic+blockland is the huge dead horse that has been beat endlessly. who is left thats even excited about it?
it feels like those million indie games that hype their stuff up then spend 4 years in development without any progress. people stop caring.

If people are sick of it they wouldn't want to build it. Sick of waiting is kind of a 'too bad' kind of deal, you can go ahead and build it yourself but I'm still going to call you an starfish for insulting the hard work that's gone into the previous generation with your low quality new generation.

so i guess no more houses or castles then right? i mean they have been done to death. just play someone else's.
or do they own some kind of modeling rights for blockland versions of the titanic.
you are being ridiculous. this topic has nothing to do with bones or existing titanics.
its rare enough to find blocklanders that want to build anymore. go stifle a project. yeah forget everyone.
