    Default Whats the deal with this guy? A heads up for TATW

    So I found this on MODDB, apparently he's asked the Third Age Team for permission to use their stuff, but I feel like something fishy is going on here, he also has Lionheart and Pixlated Apollo on board which I doubt too... but hey, I am an old skeptic so who knows. Anyway, just thought I'd give the TATW a heads up just in case this guy is up to no good...

    As long as the game requires TATW as base, it's a submod and technically permitted. If not, I'm confident ModDB rules do not accept blantant use of other mod's content without permissions either.
    That said, it's unclear what skills he has to begin with (or if there's any actual comptenet team to begin with), large project ideas tend to die in 99% of the cases because founders failing to understand the workload required, and leaders do not get modders to join without proof of own competence in the first place.

    The references to lionheart and 'apollo, while great Youtube:ers (I follow them both), do not have any relevans to this matter.

    Pretty much what I figured. Was more posting to alert the TATW of potential content theft is all, hopefully the guy will be drowned in the workload that the mod doesn't go anywhere lol
