Content creation policy
This policy is for 3D Art, 3D printing, AMVs, API Tools, App Development, Archive Curating, Artwork, Audiobooks, Blogs, Bonsai, Chainsaw Sculptures, Comedy Skits, Cosplay, Crafting, Digital Art, Drink Recipes, Educational Materials, Fan Merch, Fan Products, Fanfics, Food Recipes, Gif Making, Graffiti, Guides, Index Building, Infographics, Interactive Apps, Knife Wood Carving, Let’s Plays, Live Content, Live Crafting, Lore Readers, Memes, Modding, Music, Music Remixes, Podcasts, Pre-Recorded Content, Programming, Sheet Music, Slice of Life Skits, Story Analysis, Story Writing, Streams, Traditional Art, Tutorials, Videos, Voice Acting, Websites, Wiki Makers, Zen Gardening, and pretty much anything you can think of…
There are only 3 rules:
1. It is original content you made.
2. There is a point back to Volok Games and/or Chimera CUSTOM XG.
3. No NFTs or AI generated content, ever.
Some examples:
- Heather designed some really cute pins and sold them online. It is her artwork, her storefront, and in the item description she has “from Volok Games”. This is totally fine.
- Alex made traditional art from the game’s weaponry and turned it into a print to sell at a convention in their Artist Alley booth. It is their artwork, at their booth, with the price sign saying “Chimera CUSTOM XG’s [weapon name]”. That is completely acceptable.
- Parker traced the community emotes from the Discord server and put them on stickers to sell. This is not okay since technically he didn’t make the artwork himself.
- Tina took The Team profile artwork, cut out the characters in a program, and put them on shirts to sell. This is also not okay since it is still official artwork.
It’s really that simple. You make it, you sell it, you point back. The justification is that it gives fairness across the board, we don’t want to stifle creativity in the least. Why does a streamer or youtuber not have that many restrictions but artists are met with rules and limitations? Not here, not with us. More than likely we’ll be picking up fan merch on our own here and there, we might even work alongside creators in the future, who knows!
That’s it, that’s the whole policy. So go forth, go create.
If you still have questions don’t be nervous! We have a channel in our Discord specifically for Content Creation related questions.
