So, not sure how the DQ thing works, but I was able to rate it anyway?

Regardless, in case no one's told you yet, here's something really important you should know: the copyright act you cited in-game isn't relevant in the slightest. This game falls under the category of derivative work, which is only fair use if it's transformative in a way that either qualifies as criticism of the original (parody) or renders it irrelevant to any of the original markets. The mere existence of Holo-Indie disqualifies this as fair use.

The reason this game is not copyright-infringing is because of Cover Corp's explicit allowance, as long their guidelines are followed. That last part is important, as part of copyright is the right to authorize derivative works.

Oh don't worry about the DQ thingy. It was just a careless mistake on my side as it's my first time uploading it, but the host had reinstated it so it's back up.

Also good to know. I was just worried as I am not that good in understanding much about copyrights stuffs so I just put a disclaimer just in case. Still, thank you for the info!
