Old news but yeah.. It's ridiculous. From what I heard, it's Zenimax (Bethesda's parent company) that's going after Minecraft creator, not Bethesda Softworks.

They can't possibly win this can they? I mean i thought I understood law enough to know they can't just stop them from using that one word.

Zenimax does not think they own the word scrolls.

BUT they think that using the word scrolls will get customers confused and think that this scrolls product is affiliated with The Elder Scrolls.

Scrolls, scrolls, scrolls,scrolls, scrolls,scrolls, scrolls.

Anyways, stupid, stupid stupid. These companies and their suits never make sense, and obviously are suggested by lawyers to pretty simple businessmen who think they might get a quick buck.
