Steam EULA

[Ouan]

I read the EULA today. I am curious as to a few things. The first of which is that it states that there is to be no commercial use of this product. Does this in fact make it so that YouTubers will get a strike filed if they upload videos on this game? More importantly, is Ludeon now a nation? The way that this EULA called for me to file complaints, or as to how the law worked in regards to Ludeon, it seems that the company is claiming Sovereign status. I do not know how Dominion law works entirely, but I was fairly certain that companies within it did not have the power to make their own law. I am not mad, just curious as to if this is a change to Ludeon's official policy in regards to videos. Moreover, I think perhaps the EULA needs its wording tweaked a bit as I am not sure what laws the company claims to be filing and upholding in regards to their copyright.

It's quite clear Tynan takes no issue with let's plays.

Tynan,
   I know you have no issues with let's plays. I was referring specifically to the wording of the EULA, which seems contrary to the spirit of the game and community thus far. Not that I am qualified to rewrite the whole thing, it just seems oddly worded for a EULA.

The "law" are the laws of the country you live in. And if these allow "fair use" you may do so. And the law of the jurisdiction (i.e. country) of Ludeon would be the laws of the country Ludeon company is registered in, which is Canada, I believe.
