Disclaimer of Affiliation

Trademarks and Rights

All names, characters, logos, sounds and concept art related to these games are registered trademarks and intellectual property of their respective developers and rights holders. This website does not seek to infringe those rights; its purpose is purely fan journalism, documentation and recreation.

The use of those names and trademarks is purely referential: it serves to identify what we are talking about, not to suggest sponsorship, endorsement or any link with their owners.

Luxine's original text, design and code are, however, the work of the site's team.

$ cat fair-use.txt

Purpose and Fair Use

Luxine covers these games for informational, critical, analytical and archival purposes, always accompanying third-party material with our own commentary and context. That is the basis on which we understand its use as quotation and illustration of the news to be covered.

We do not distribute copies of the games, executable files, extracted material that would let anyone play them without buying them, or anything that substitutes for acquiring the original product. We encourage playing the titles through official channels.

$ cat accuracy.txt

Accuracy of Information

The information provided on this site (including news, analysis and theories) comes from publicly accessible or community sources. Although we strive to keep information up to date, Luxine is not responsible for inconsistencies or changes introduced by the games' official developers.

Content is offered with no guarantee of accuracy and for information only: it should not be used as a basis for purchasing, investment or any other kind of decision. We correct mistakes as soon as we spot them or they are pointed out to us.

$ cat leaks.txt

Leaks, Theories and Rumours

Part of our coverage gathers leaks, community-shared images and fan theories. Such material is identified as such and does not constitute official or confirmed information from any studio: it may be incomplete, misinterpreted or debunked later. When content comes from a leak we say so explicitly, and we take it down if its rightful owner asks us to.

Luxine does not obtain or commission leaks: we only report on material already circulating publicly. Fan theories are speculation and are published as such, never as fact.

$ cat images.txt

Third-Party Material and Images

The screenshots, artwork and in-game notes that appear on the site — including those offered bundled for download — come from public sources and community-maintained archives such as wikis and forums. They are reproduced for informational and archival purposes, and the rights remain with their original authors. YouTube videos and Steam widgets are displayed embedded from their original platforms.

If you are the author of an image or an excerpt that appears here and would like to be credited differently, or have it removed, tell us and we will sort it out.

$ cat fiction.txt

The Site's Fictional Elements

Luxine deliberately uses an immersive setting: dossiers, classified files, security warnings and an "investigation" tone that is part of the site's experience.

All lore is fiction

None of those references describe real events, real organisations or genuine documents. All lore and mystery on Luxine is immersive and purely fictional, and must not be taken as truthful information about any real company or person.

$ cat translations.txt

Translations

Luxine is published in Spanish, English, Portuguese and Italian, with Spanish as the original version.

Blog articles are machine-translated (Google Translate). They are there to bring the content to more readers, but they may contain odd phrasing, poorly chosen terms or errors of meaning, and they are not reviewed one by one. Nor does all content exist in all four languages: in some cases it is available in only some of them.

In the event of any discrepancy, the Spanish version prevails, and it is the reference version for these legal texts too. If a machine translation leads you to understand something different from what the original says, the original is what counts.

$ cat community.txt

Community and Accounts

Opinions posted by users belong to their authors and are shown under their @username. They do not represent Luxine's position, and Luxine is not responsible for their content beyond its moderation work.

Registration does not ask for an email address; adding a recovery email is optional and is never shown in public areas. The details are in the Privacy Policy.

$ cat non-profit.txt

Non-Profit

Luxine has no advertising, charges no subscriptions and sells nothing. It also uses no affiliate links or sponsorships: when we link to a store it is so you can look the game up, with nothing coming back to us.

Hosting costs are borne by the team. This matters here because the absence of commercial exploitation is part of what supports the informational use of third-party material described above.

$ cat takedown.txt

Content Takedown

If you represent one of the studios mentioned, or hold rights over material published here and believe it should not appear, we can take it down. Write to contactoluxine@gmail.com or through the channels linked in the footer, stating:

  • The exact link to the page where the content appears.
  • What the specific material is and in what capacity you are claiming it.
  • A way to contact you with our reply.

We handle these requests as quickly as possible and without demanding formal procedures: we are a fan project and we do not want to publish anything its owner does not want to see here. If we take something down, we do it without arguing the merits.
