6-9.įirewatch-related copyright infringement came to the fore in June 2016, four months after the game debuted. We’ve reached out to Salesforce for comment, and have not yet received a response to our questions - although an auto-reply noted that responses might be delayed because the entire company is busy with Dreamforce 2017, which runs Nov. “We’re a company that put years of our life into that image.” “Man, that crappy flag on top of our iconic lookout tower really drives us crazy,” said Vanaman. Vanaman has not yet responded to a request for comment from Polygon, although he’s clearly not thrilled with Salesforce’s ad - let alone the alterations that the company seems to have made to the Firewatch artwork after allegedly stealing it. You can afford to build literally the 2nd tallest building on the west coast - maybe keep some bucks aside for graphics designers? /6aMGJVAaya- Sean Vanaman November 8, 2017
We live in a world that is packed to the gills with games that place the player in extraordinary situations and demands they rise to the challenge. Campo Santo co-founder Sean Vanaman pointed out the similarities on Twitter with a damning GIF, after alleging that Salesforce was “straight up tracing our shit”: Firewatch has drawn some rather polarizing reactions from those who have played the game and in some ways its easy to see why. Thing is, it appears that Salesforce misappropriated Firewatch artwork for the ad. Salesforce - which has more than 25,000 employees worldwide and a market capitalization north of $75 billion - produced a piece of artwork on Twitter to advertise its “Marketing, Commerce, and Retail Lodge,” a location for marketing events during the company’s annual Dreamforce conference. The latest instance comes from the cloud computing giant Salesforce, which is, like Campo Santo, based in San Francisco.
The beauty of Firewatch - which is augmented by some terrific and easily recognizable graphic design - is perhaps the reason why multiple companies have lifted elements of its art and design for their own use.
Henry’s predicament is achingly true to life, a man who finds himself faced with a tragic situation. Campo Santo warms your heart, caresses it, then tears it from your chest without hesitation. Firewatch offers stunning vistas from that tower and elsewhere, and stirs the same emotions that nature’s bounty does in real life, even though it doesn’t have photorealistic graphics. It encapsulates a palette of emotions in a matter of minutes that few games manage to achieve in their entirety. Set in the Wyoming wilderness during the 1980s, the narrative adventure game puts players in the shoes of a 30-something man named Henry, who spends a summer manning a fire lookout tower in the Shoshone National Forest.
