RPG Maker Forums
I'm not sure where the correct forum is to post these questions, and they are probably dumb questions.
But here goes.
I've been working on a game for a while now, and so far I'm quite happy with the results.
At first, I was planning on releasing it only for me and my friends, but I've been thinking about putting it somewhere online for downloading.
But the problem I am having, is regarding to copyright laws.
I'm using a LOT of material (Mostly music) from other games, for example, I use some songs from World of Warcraft and Ori and the Blind Forest.
If I were to put my game up for download somewhere, will I be violating laws?
As far as I understand, you break the copyright laws when you charge for other peoples work.
But I have no intention of charging people a fee. I'm mostly curious to see if people would be interested in it.
But as I stated above, I do not know wether this breaks any copyright laws, and if it does, what the repercussions are.
I would like to be properly informed about these situations before I start doing something, and my own research hasn't quite brought up the answers I needed.
If anyone could clarify it up, I would be most thankful! <3

Just beat the last of us 2 last night and starting jedi: fallen order right now, both use unreal engine & when I say i knew 80% of jedi's buttons right away because they were the same buttons as TLOU2 its ridiculous, even the same narrow hallway crawl and barely-made-it jump they do. Unreal Engine is just big budget RPG Maker the way they make games nearly identical at its core lol.
