(I actually had to google skyrim, I'm that old ...) Please take a few minutes to rethink copyright from the ground up without any regards to what you have been told by anyone... Where does copyright originate? What purpose does it serve in the society of today? Does it serve that purpose well? How does it match up to what most people would consider to be fair use in regards to personal and commercial use? Does copyright sometimes get abused and misused? Are there better solutions to the issues we are trying to address? You don't need to tell me or anybody else what conclusion you reach. But you owe it to yourself to think it over and stop repeating what you have been told by others as most people here on HN does every time copyright gets discussed.
