    There's a issue where they can't use "The Day Before", that's why the said they took down the Steam store page. If they can't use the name then how are they able to keep it up thier site and make new videos with the name?

    The new gameplay footage is pretty bland and they dumbed down the graphics. The amount of red flags happening here is pretty high. This is reminding me of the bs Athem trailer and fake demo at E3 2017.
    If they are arguing about whether they get to use the name or not, and their opponent requests Steam to stop using that name, most likely Valve will take the game down because Valve doesn't have a dog in that fight and doesn't want to have anything to do with the argument. Whereas the devs who have decided to argue will keep using it until they get an actual court decision.

    I don't mind of having to run around, because it is supposed to be survival game. If you add player around every corner then it just becomes a CoD. If I wanted to play CoD I would play CoD.

    What rather bothers me is that nothing was really shown. I mean they showed something that you can download from asset stores and run it. This game right here right now is Sergey Titov level scam. Titov is someone who keeps building games like these. Once it has done selling two days after release, he abandons them, takes the assets and releases basically same game under new title just he could sell them again. And he keeps doing it over and over again.

    There was something they posted the other day where they said they would "restore the steam page soon" which makes me think they believe they won't have this "trademark dispute" for very long.

    I'm not sure how far this trademark thing really goes. with everything they've done so far I'm starting to feel like they were just trying to trick people when they pulled the steam page to buy themselves some time. 

    They still have their branding everywhere else. valve probably would pull the game if there was a dispute, but these devs have been so shady, I wouldn't put it past them to pull some shit like this.

    Those don't count as stealing. They are all generic locations and stuff like city with skyscrapers, police station, and snowy landscape with pines. As long as The Day Before devs don't copy assets and don't make 1:1 copy of the layout they are free to make very similar generic locations to their own game and it's not stealing.

    It's alarming that people can find that many similarities between The Day Before PR material and PR material for other games because that raises a question whether The Day Before devs have actually made a game, or just looked at those other game PR materials and made similar locations/scenes for their own PR material. But their PR material is different enough that it doesn't qualify as stealing.

    They stole the exact stuff from ADVERTISING for their own ADVERTISING

    There is zero reason to believe they are making an actual product.

    Those clips are so generic, if you think thats stealing then what game doesnt steal?  I can pretty much replicate all these type games and find something in the world that looks sorta similiar to another game.

    I personally dont even care if they rip off the game completely, the only real question is your game better than the other one?  If yes then you deserve to publish.

    How many MMO's have stolen the ideas of other games before them?

    If you make a car you cant use wheels because some other car has them lol.  I mean geez.  Really getting into the weeds.
