- k__ 13y agoNo, he didn't just copy it, he looked what the players liked and what they didn't like, extracted the good stuff and made a game out of this. This is how everything remotely successful works. This is also why things later fail! The companies want more customers and add stuff to their products to appeal. But what they end with is a product, that doesn't reflect the good things extracted anymore, because they got bloated.
