Lore Book - Potential sharing question

[QuidamAzerty]

Hi there !

I have currently the Lore Book in my possession. It's such an amazing piece... And I just have one question:
I'd like to share all the written content. Just the writings. For those who want to know more about the Lore but cannot have the Lore Book.

I know right now that I can't share any of it "without the express written permission of the publisher". That's why I'm asking it on the official forums.

Thanks for your attention.

You mean transcribe the written portion of the lore book, word by word, to an internet website that could be accessed by anyone? I would strongly advise against it. Not only would such a thing most likely be illegal, but it would likely harm sales of the lore book, which we DO NOT WANT because we'd like them to continue to make more things like the lore book.

While it's fine to quote bits and pieces when discussing in forums and whatnot, having an online site where anyone can just read the whole thing start to finish is another thing entirely.

Also, you say "just the writings" - but let's be real here: while the art in the book is beautiful, someone who's drawn to buy the book is interested in it FOR the writings. The artwork is just icing!

Thanks for your reply LineageRazor !

The only way to make it legal would be SE replying to this thread and saying yes I guess. But for the reasons you mentioned, they surely won't ^^.

it's fine to quote bits and pieces

So maybe a bot doing a bot that'll reply only the part that'd be asked would be the answer ^^
