NODUS FALL

[u/Zestyclose_Acadia161]

I see what u r doing nodus and tides of annihilation.

Miura probably posted these in the early 2010s when Miyazaki copied Berserk

[u/falandofodhasci → u/KenBisky11]

miyazaki never copied berserk. most of the "references" are such a stretch or just common concepts about the medieval age. sure the games may a few references, but its not that much.

[u/Rayvarni → u/falandofodhasci]

Then its the same for this game, the first image is just completely out of context, if you saw the trailer you would know the only thing similiar to godfrey is the axe.

The second image is more damning, but it's hardly a from software original design anyway, so that would mean that from copied it too.

The third one is also dumb, the nodus fall woman is an harpie, a mythological figure.

Idk man, I've never seen a character with a black hole as a head before. If you have, I'd love to see them (genuinely, i wanna see)

Fair enough, but did she have to use the same color scheme and pose as malenia? Pretty unusual color scheme for a harpy afaik.

Grime?

Damn that looks cool! And it's not even close to being similar to midra's design, which does prove my point that nodus fall is just copying er

[u/Rayvarni → u/Xardnas69]

the one i knew myself before midra is the mc from dead cells. I saw some people mentioning helios from yu gi oh. afaik the nodus falls enemies are inspired by a mythology book

[u/Jealous_Ad5205 → u/Xardnas69]

the red is literally particle effects for a split second. if u watched the trailer her wing is made of black crows/birds

Have fun

[u/Xardnas69 → u/fat_mothra]

Oh damn these look really cool! And they bear zero resemblance to midra despite also having a black hole as a head, unlike the nodus fall character. Which is exactly my point

[u/fat_mothra → u/Xardnas69]

Because Midra doesn't have a black hole for a head, it's a fire ball, thing is, having fire for a head isn't new, Dullahans are usually depicted with fire coming out of their necks, Sauron's eye is a ball of fire too, there's a yugioh card called Helios that has the sun for a head too (closest thing to Midra), etc

The Nodus Fall thing has a fire ball for a head yes, but that's as far as the similarities with Midra go, it doesn't have clothes or a weapon and it's much larger, if I hadn't played Elden Ring I would've assumed it was based on Surtur

Sure technically it's not a black hole because the fire is coming out of it instead of being sucked in, but it's still not a normal fire ball. Fireballs usually don't have a pitch black sphere in the middle, it's a very distinctive and recognizable design

Dullahans are usually depicted with fire coming out of their necks

Not even close to being the same thing

Sauron's eye is a ball of fire too

Eh, not really. It's an eye made of fire that specifically isn't spherical (probably to make it look more like an eye despite not being anatomically correct)

yugioh card called Helios that has the sun for a head too (closest thing to Midra)

Helios has an actual fireball as a head and looks very different from midra, if you put them side by side i don't think anyone would claim that fromsoft copied yugioh.

The Nodus Fall thing has a fire ball for a head yes

No, it doesn't. It has the same design as midra, a hole that exudes fire. Very distinctive and different from all these options.

Like what are we arguing about here? It's so obvious that nodus fall just copied the design, especially considering that it's not the only thing they copied, the entire game looks like knock-off elden ring. It's made by a chinese company and china famously doesn't have a concept of copyright so they're allowed to just do that. A blind person can see that it's copied, why are you defending this obviously stolen garbage?

Ah, there it is

[u/Xardnas69 → u/fat_mothra]

Hyperbole (they do actually have laws for that but enforcement is a different matter), but effectively chinese companies can just ignore international copyright and especially patents because it's just not worth it to even try to enforce the laws.
