The success of Adventure Time proves plagiarism is okay

A young boy adventures with the help of a magical wisecracking sidekick through a post-apocalyptic world caused by the introduction of magic to our world. There is more going on than it seems, and there is a tough girl character that has an unsettling amount of weird porn written about her.

What am I describing: Adventure Time or Nier Replicant?

    It was a snowclone trend, starting with (unless I misremember, which I might) "The success of The Incredibles proves plagiarism is okay"

    What in the name of Om did they think The Incredibles was plagiarizing?

    Copy from one source, and you're a plagiarist. Copy from two sources, and you're a derivative hack. Copy from twenty sources, taking care to integrate all of them into a cohesive whole, and you'll be mistaken for original.

    You know, I hate to say it, but this is what's wrong with modern gaming publishers.

    You present it like it's crtl, c;ctrl v.

    This game has brown, shooting, and people of non-white origin being offensively portrayed and gunned down, people must like those things, copy and paste that.

    Congratulations, you just made Call of Battlefield duty 5s.
