Being that it is just a feeler thing, it would still have to go to the estate and get approval before anything else. None of us know if there's been contact or a sign off whatsoever.

 

Don't give them ideas, they do this already. Lol.

 

Generally, my opinion on it is this. If he's going to be added, I'd personally prefer him to be restricted to certain modes. They have the ability to do that now. If he isn't added, no skin off my back, it makes no difference. I understand the concerns and I have my own reservations, but I do agree with the same moral question of AI shit. TOO easy to monetize online now to be making money off a deadman's fake likeness and me personally, I find it pretty fucking disgusting. That's me though. 

 

Funko pops are lifeless, mass produced little statues, but not really comparable here.

 

Fortnite is not a violent game. The worst you get is guns and swords and the 'death animation' isn't even a death animation'. It's listed internally as a loss animation as they don't consider your end of the game to be a death. You're eliminated from the game, but no-one is ever dead or killed. It's a whole lore thing, I needed my brother to explain it to me.

 

It differs for everyone, but I think, with restrictions, this would be fine enough. The band has collaborated to bring their music to the game, a skin wouldn't surprise me. And in the end, it isn't up to the band whether or not he ends up in it. It's up to his estate and Talinda before anything.

You are very right here, Don't give them more ideas.
