Top Dispute Issues in GameDev

The idea and inspiration of game dev studios often clash with the harsh legal reality of needing to respect the IP rights of third parties. For example, questions frequently arise such as "can I adapt this book for my game?" or "I found a track by an unknown musician, why can't I add it to my game?" Failing to consider such questions can result in disputes with rights holders, games being removed from stores, or entire accounts being blocked.
