There is a potential way around this that has often been used by other projects. You make the original game files a requirement for it to work and you don't distribute any files that include trademarked material directly and instead it uses the original files and modifies/extends them as needed. This has been used for a large number of other projects including things like the Ocarina of Time decompilation project.

I wanted to read this book so I could see what the fuss was all about. I’ve never made it 80% of the way through any other book and then intentionally stopped reading it. Everything about the way it is written is so bad. The characters are all made of cardboard. The situations that arise make no sense. Pretty much everything about the book makes no sense and is just to drive the story towards whatever idiotic conclusion Rand wanted.

When John Galt finally appeared and I realized he was just three incoherent speeches in a trench coat and not an actual attempt at writing a character, I basically abandoned finishing the book in disgust.

It reminds me of the series finale of Dinosaurs! where Earl is out in charge of a mega project and it causes an issue so they do another mega project to fix it and it keeps going until he causes an ice age and the extinction of his race.

Nah I didn’t make it that far. I couldn’t take too much of that character. It doesn’t surprise me that it gets even more ridiculous though.
