    Could this run afowl of Bethesda’s legal team if it has the same exact name, despite being a mod?

      Yes. It’s officially a real name that they’re infringing and could cause confusion.

      It’s so dumb. ID has historically been pretty lax with what modders do. You can literally name your mod anything but something copyrighted. And the modders decided to do that.

      Yup! I was thinking the same exact thing a moment ago. Bad choice calling it Doom III
