<div class="IPBDescription">Blink?!</div>I have been looking at a a few youtube videos of the upcoming game called Dishonoured and in quite a few of them it shows some of the main characters abilities. There is one ability called Blink which looks like it has been ripped off from the Fade Blink. It works pretty much the same but slightly different and even has a similar sound.

Has anyone else watched any footage and noticed this, and have the devs seen it?

    Yeah, and ns2 ripped it off of starcraft 2 stalker. Everything is a remix.

    Hmm if it is the "Long Jump" from <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXlqwfVDboY" target="_blank">this video</a>, it is similar to the old teleporting Blink from NS2 Alpha, which is nothing like the current revised one. Besides, ripped off are harsh words in any case :)

    If no assets are taken, for example sound directly ripped from the Fade's Blink, then there's nothing wrong.

    TB explains this better than I ever could, (skip to the second question):

    @OP I'm actually pretty sure they have never even heard of NS2.

    Not a ripoff, imo. As Kouji mentioned, it looks more like the teleport blink that was in the alpha, but was dropped (cause it didn't really work that well in a multiplayer setting).

    Wow! Looks like a new Dark Project style game. Thanks for the hint.
    I wouldn't call that a rip-off. Even if they'd be inspired by UWE, that's the way it goes. Some techniques just work and it's nice when they put it in a new context. It's in no way a competitor for NS2...

    if nobody ripped anything off anyone else, and was nice and honest, there would be no games comming out, cos everythings been done.

    Is too hard to exactly copyright a specific action which is common in science fiction.

    Is like trying to say that a double kick or suplex is owned by X person and nobody else could recreate everywhere.

    But the blink/teleportation/disappear and appear/materialize is just a common action or tactic in fiction.

    I'm thinking the Blink Dog from D&D is a good early example.

    this is so true I don't get these topic or comment about hey those ripped of these guys, games have been around for enough time that prolly 90% of the stuff are done the only stuff that arent done are because of not fast enough hardware or bandwidth limitations of online play.

    ripoff or not Dishonoured looks like a very interesting game to me, I mean how many games can you finish without killing if you so choose to go the hard way?
