The PUBG irony is next level.
Another DayZ (not a pubg dev property) gameplay clone skinned with a Battle Royale (not a pubg property) theme, complaining about copy cats.

I take it you're not aware the guy actually MADE the Battle Royale theme. So he has some legitimacy here. Even so, he still just comes off as a whiner.
Battle Royale is a Japanese movie.
It's the movie that "Hunger Games" was based on.
PUBG ripped the same movie.

Well Creston most assuredly never has seen that movie or read mangas where this idea dates back at least 30 years, or read the Hunger games books for that matter...
If done, the fact is pretty obvious that PUBG just hit gold out of pure luck. The idea was not new, though nobody had focused an entire game on it quite so well. It was the perfect moment too, the engine was just then available for him to make that. 5 years earlier and you'd have had no cheap engine that could have pulled this off.
