You cannot claim those characters and/or images in your game yours, and you cannot deny others from using it because you restrict the use of it (so no backseating). Those belong to SEGA and they are the ones who can put their policies in place. That’s how intellectual property works. what you’re doing is consitered plagerism. You are not SEGA nor SEGA belongs to you as well as users’ pc.
Your DRM can be summed up with an acronym with the same 3 letters: Dangerous Rootkit Malware. Nobody likes cheating, hacks, etc. I get that. But one thing this kind of digital rights/restrictions management matches with the infamous 2005 sony rookit debacle.
There’s a quate by a Texas government who said “It’s your intellectual property—it’s not your computer”.
Add the word “NOT” in between the first two words and that’s the message to you.
You are basically a malware version of Alex Thomas Mauer, an abusive “rights” holder who don’t know how copyright works. A user who go after others who LEGALLY use your stuff because you wanted copyright to have no “limitations and exceptions”. Guess what, this “vigilante” behavior will screw up your reputation so hard that everyone will hate you. Don’t expect ANYONE will hire you for ANY JOB after they found out about your actions. Expect the same government investigation the same that happened against sony. And you will be listed in hall of shame of bad copyright holders out there who abused youtube, twitch and other public places where false takedown can happen.
Shame on you. I will never play games or use ANY software made by you.
