I agree about some changes of copyright law when they saw that we can now, with current technologies in video games, assign a full texture over a shirt, with all sponsors, brandt, team names / a perfect copy of the original unlicenced kits.
I believe they got some kind of adverts about a future, almost already lost process and/or a new law regarding copyright we don't know about.
"They" is only Konami as the video answers it but not only, i suppose UFL and perhaps even EA FC.. if they wanted to do it.
From a certain point of view, the teams and leagues side : when you know there's some teams receiving amount of money to get licence + exclusivity "IF" and the other watching their leagues and clubs with real kits on YT video for not a single penny... Even without extra stuffs like stadiums, it's unfair regarding those teams and i was very surprised when it was introduced, full kits i mean, during 10 years without having problems.
Probably they were protected by the fact than the "game is sold without kits, up to customers to create what they wants with our tools", but i suppose some clubs or league tried to fought again those famous tools, and probably some good(s) lawyer(s) found a fail regarding freedom to create...
Or they probably purposed a new law with solid arguments, this time accepted by the idonno "association of VG protection etc." regarding those tools.
I suppose the next step will be the Fifpro dissolution or something like that. Well Pc gamers don't care but it may be the end of consoles ; something i absolutely don't want to. I'm already sick about dematerialization becoming the standard...
