Square is risking BIG lawsuit with pictomancer...

[Sea-Wolf]

Pictomancer came before LoA, and there's no copyright for "a person wielding a big paintbrush to attack enemies"

Ahem. Pictomancer is made this year and revealed, Artist in LoA was made a few years ago...

Pictomancer appeared first with Relm Arrowny from Final Fantasy VI, which is from 1994.

Begging on my hands and knees for people to play other FF games.

Also, nobody wants to get into a legal battle about this. Drawing to attack using brushes and paint appear in many different places in media. You'd have to have an extremely limited collection of media you've viewed if you think this is something that LoA invented and has exclusive rights to.

Yes, but Nixon has sued many people before, so Square is in trouble IMO.

Not like you lawyer either?

I am not a lawyer, no. So it is not like my opinion would matter much either.
But, unlike you I have at least some knowledge of how copyright law works, so my opinions on this subject are far more likely than yours to be correct.

Unlike you, I've done 10 hours of research to compare notes and analyze similarity of Artist and Pictomancer, and the "History" of Nixon's suing. (Nixon has more than 20 lawsuits).
