I'd say it's absolutely insane that someone might actually be able to take the creators of Elden Ring to court over the fact they're not good enough to beat a game intentionally made to be hard. I imagine they're the same people who would try and sue Sintendo over a Mrio Mker level that they can't beat first try.
I the US you can sue anyone for anything. You'll lose for stuff like this post, but you can do it all you want. The fact anyone is reporting on this is the issue. It should be ignored.
Psst! Your censors are making italics! Add a backslash to both of them to m*ke it w*rk.
Thanks for the heads up. This whole text formatting thing can be annoying.
The article is using as a source a 4chan post that had a docket number that didn't check out. I'm pretty sure this is a joke someone took seriously because they needed to publish something today.
This would get almost immediately dismissed by any judge.
