The pros, the parody or the proportions? (Patreon)
Content
Recently, a world of warcraft parody animator by the name of Rexcraft got served a cease and desist from a Activision/Blizzard legal representative. He was ordered to stop all use of their IP and many other things.
He has since stopped using warcraft material and has moved onto working on his own intellectual property. What has been a surprise to himself and many of his contractors, or "haters," is that a very large portion of his fanbase hasn't left him and in fact continue to support him.
The reason I have stayed with keeping my comic a LOZ parody is because people have told me I will lose everything if I try to move onto making my own content. I am starting to think that isn't true. Plus the stories of the Nintendo legal department are 1000 times worse than any other company when it comes to this kind of stuff.
So the question is, do you all enjoy my comics for the story I write, the fact its a Zelda parody or for the proportions I draw my characters with?
I honestly am not sure why I didn't ask this in my questionnaire I had a couple of months back.
The options are;
- Zelda parody is NOT important to me. I like your work because of the art
- Zelda Parody is NOT important to me. But I would like to see a fantasy comic take it's place.
- Zelda parody is IMPORTANT to me. But I would STAY because I like your work.
- Zelda parody is IMPORTANT to me. I would LEAVE if you stopped creating Zelda parody content
You may be asking "What brought this on?" Honestly a lot of the same reasons I made the questionnaire. Most fans of the Zelda series that want to see porn are not really into the stuff I make and the people who are into the stuff I make really don't seem to care that much about Zelda. Maybe there is a reason there is no other zelda parodies like mine, there is little to no market for it. Also I spend so much putting myself into this work, I might as well go 100% all me and actually full own what I make.
