Would you happen to be a tattoo artist by any chance ?

I don't understand why ppl think it's ridiculous for the tattoo artists to be suing over their property. It's their work. Sometimes they're custom drawing stuff. It's actual physical property. Not the players body but the artwork is. Nothing ridiculous about them suing imo. I'm not a lawyer but it's pretty clear this is copyright infringement to some degree.

What I don't understand is why people are rooting for 2k to lose the case, like they're getting a cut of the tattoo artists payout....all it does is hurt us as the consumer...

Mentality around here is completely jacked up

I know they will have to settle, but the point still stand that he is requesting a percentage of their sales and a waiver of over a million dollars
