The analysis and investigation were necessary in the light of repeating opinions that the games are very similar. By not investigating it, Movie Games, being a publicly traded company, could face severe consequences for negligence.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The update also notes that the information about the investigation was only shared via Poland&#8217;s <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.knf.gov.pl\/en\/MARKET\/ESPI\" target=\"_blank\">ESPI<\/a>, a stock market communications system &#8220;where we are obligated to publish such information for full transparency,&#8221; and that it was picked up from there by media outlets, and &#8220;in some cases wrongly reported as a lawsuit.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s no specific request to end the review bombing campaign on Steam, but the message is clearly damage control, with an implied &#8220;please stop&#8221; very clear throughout.<\/p>\n<p>But it doesn&#8217;t appear to be having the intended effect: There are a few messages here and there in the replies to the update acknowledging that the needs of publicly traded companies make Movie Games&#8217; explanation at least plausible, but by and large the responses do not reflect a widespread urge to forgive and forget.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:1175px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:144.77%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"7APYcyeqai3qbRzURUAeGm\" name=\"replies\" alt=\"Responses to Movie Games SA's \"no lawsuit\" update regarding Schedule I\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/there-is-no-lawsuit-against-schedule-i-as-negative-steam-reviews-pile-up-drug-dealer-simulator-publisher-makes-a-public-plea-for-peace.jpg\" mos=\"\" align=\"middle\" fullscreen=\"1\" width=\"1175\" height=\"1701\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" class=\"expandable\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\" inline-layout\"><span class=\"caption-text\"><em>Between Drug Dealer Simulator and DDS 2, there&#8217;s currently about 23 pages of this. <\/em> <\/span><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Steam)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>I don&#8217;t know international copyright law (or the details of this specific case) well enough to judge the actually necessity of the investigation, and the timing of the investigation does seem a bit, well, questionable: There are dozens of drug dealer sim games on Steam, but only one of them is parked near the top of Steam&#8217;s <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/store.steampowered.com\/charts\/mostplayed\/\" target=\"_blank\">most-played chart<\/a>, ahead of Path of Exile 2, Marvel Rivals, and even <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/life-sim\/one-of-the-biggest-games-on-steam-right-now-is-bongo-cat-a-cat-with-a-hat-who-smacks-your-windows-taskbar-like-a-bongo-drum-when-you-type\/\">Bongo Cat<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>In that light, it&#8217;s not hard to see why some people might imagine that Movie Games SA was digging for a piece of the action and got caught, and is now trying to clean it up with claims about regulatory responsibility.
