Does this mean other game publishers get sued if they use dynamic difficulty?

[–] GeneralEmergency@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago (1 children)

No. Only if they use the same system. That's what's being patented, not the concept of dynamic difficulty.

In theory no, practically speaking the patent system is absurdly dumb around anything IT. Multiple patents which Apple won against Samsung with got invalidated which cut part of the awards issued
