Terms of use
What you may do with what we publish, what we promise about it, and what happens when a patch makes a guide wrong.
Accepting these terms
Using guildgamer.com means you accept what is on this page. If you do not accept it, please stop using the site. We may update these terms, and the date at the top says when we last did.
What you may do with our work
Articles, guides, original photography and the design of this site belong to Guild Gamer. You may:
- Quote a short extract, with attribution and a working link back to the article.
- Link to anything here, from anywhere, without asking.
- Print or save a copy for your own use.
You may not:
- Republish a full article, on a site, in an app, or in a newsletter.
- Use our text or images to train a model, or scrape the site in bulk, without written permission.
- Present our work as your own, or strip a byline.
Licensing requests go to contact@guildgamer.com. We are usually reasonable.
Game names, art and trademarks
Game titles, logos, screenshots and characters belong to their publishers and developers. They appear here for identification, review and commentary. No endorsement by any publisher is claimed or implied. Rights holders who want a specific image removed should write to contact@guildgamer.com with the exact URL.
Accuracy, and the shelf life of a guide
Games change. A build that trivialised a boss last month can be nerfed tomorrow, a route can be blocked by a patch, and a price can move overnight. Guides describe the game as it was on the date shown on the article, on the version named in it. We correct what we can and we date what we cannot, but nothing here is a guarantee that a strategy, a build or a price is still current when you read it.
Hardware advice is the same. We say what we tested and when. Opening a controller or a console yourself may void its warranty, and that is your call to make, not ours.
Links to other sites
We link out constantly, including to stores through affiliate links described in the affiliate disclosure. We do not control those sites and we are not responsible for what they publish, sell or collect. Their terms and privacy policies apply once you leave here.
Acceptable use
Do not attack the site, scrape it in a way that degrades it for other readers, or attempt to access parts of it you were not given access to. Do not submit anything unlawful through the newsletter form or any other input on the site.
The site is provided as it is
We work to keep guildgamer.com accurate and available, but we do not warrant that it will be uninterrupted, error free, or fit for a particular purpose. To the fullest extent the law allows, Guild Gamer is not liable for loss arising from your use of the site or from relying on its content. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited.
Governing law
These terms do not nominate a governing law or a forum. Naming one that had not actually been chosen would be worse than saying so plainly: it would be unenforceable where it conflicts with local consumer law, and misleading everywhere else. Until a jurisdiction is set, any dispute is governed by whatever law would apply in its absence, and your consumer protections where you live are untouched either way.
