At least it's not Wolfire. Lugaru's just a game, that's a company.

It's a French word, of course people will want to call their stuff that.

Plus, everyone already knows about it.
Well, everyone who's been here for longer than so-and-so units of time and reads the forums regularly.

Re: Another Lugaru? WTF?!?
I vaguely remember a few separate books called Lugaru, also.
It sounds cool and means werewolf, who wouldn't want to use it?
But yeah, if they made a game/company/whatever called The Wonderful End of the World even, that had nothing to do with the original, then I might be surprised.

I can see people calling things Loup Garou, but Lugaru? That's almost too coincidental.
Lugaru isn't actually the phonetic spelling of loup-garou. In reality, the 'ou' makes a slightly different sound in French than does the 'u' in Lugaru. That's why I was so surprised to find this.

Re: Another Lugaru? WTF?!?
'S right.
In any case, Lugaru > Lugaru.
...wait...
...rephrase...
Wolfire > Loup Garou.
there.

I saw someone with the account name "Lugaru" on another board once and actually asked if he was David. He wasn't.

...and? The name isn't copyrighted AFAIK, and that company has been around longer. In addition, their staple product is a text processing-editing program, not a game with anthropomorphic furries running around doing kung-fu.
