The video game in question:
oh naming this fucking thing Uncharted (a Naughty Dog/Sony franchise that makes a shitload of money and got a movie 2 years ago) won’t end well if anyone in the industry notices. but crypto projects compulsively steal names for SEO, so here’s more weird stolen names from the article:

A while back it was revealed that when journalists report on those homebrew fanart things (often happens with nintendo properties) and lawyers/people at the company in question read that, it forces them to go after it to shut it down (A thing long rumored about). And that is fanart projects which don’t make any money, so jumping into the games industry with the trademarked name of a different IP is quite a balsy move. Lets see how it works out for them.

Referencing THE suppository of all nerd references for SEO is the real big brain move.
