I have a brain fart.

I suggest that they change the copyright law to be valid for 50-75 (maybe 100 at worst) years after the publishing and it would not expire immediately if the person dies. Unpublished works, that were no longer in development or laying somewhere (complete or not) never meant to be published, would expire at death. If the work was to be published (in other words, was already complete and going towards publishing, it would go normally and expire after the time has passed). This would be much easier and enough time to support your living with your work.

Copyright laws are just straight up too poorly written for this time period. Without any kind of statistics, I'd say the most fraud AND mistakes seem to happen within those borders.

I'm all for protecting someone's property, but I think the system is terrible at doing it. It should be rewritten, but it probably never will be. Besides, I don't exactly have any great solution to this problem to propose. All I know is that copyright is exploited to shit, abused to pieces, and seems to do more harm than not.

"Call of Cthulhu", "No One Lives Forever" and "Portal" are my favorite ego-shooters.
Have to play "Stalker" and "Metro" soon.

I know it's not much but it's probs worth taking a look.

I don't know how many devs did they hire in last job proposal, but production will go faster than SOMA.
My release date estimate: December 2017 or Q1 2018.
