This is literally what Nintendo is doing right now.
They filled this suit, and only THEN filed for a bunch of extra patents they didn’t already have in order to increase the damages they could claim from Pocket Pair for being in violation.
I already think patents for game design mechanics are idiotic an unethical, but this is absolutely insane.
Future tense is used for denoting events that have not happened yet. And also, why do you care so much? The world is fucked sixty five ways till Sunday, so why the focus here?

I’m not sure what reality you’re living to think they’re not.
