While browsing my Facebook feed today, I saw the following screen-shotted advertisement for a browser game called “Knight’s Fable.”

Not only does the game itself seem dubious, but the artwork in the background is taken directly from Arenanet’s Guild Wars 2 artwork:

Just thought I would pass this along, and here is a link if necessary (For Devs, I don’t recommend clicking):

There was already a post about such things, and Gaile has asked that all such things also be posted with a link directly to the ad so such things can be stopped. Thanks!

I have low expectations for facebook games and browser games in general, so when people say one of those games steals art to promote their game I’m not surprised.
