Today, I was assigned to write a short story about what we imagine Earth to be like in 500 years, and daily conflicts people experience. My teacher loved it and read it aloud to the class. He asked for my inspiration, and I didn't have the heart to say that I ripped off Mass Effect 3. FML
I agree, your life sucks 9 628
You deserved it 26 828

This. This is more of a morality issue than a legal issue. I didn't take it word for word (even though that's hard to do since it's a video game and not a book), I just used the concept.

I hope you put your own twist on it and didn't write just about how the game is, exactly. :|

Concepts aren't copyright, and you made no money from it. Stop feeling guilty, and become indoctrinated.

Rip off Resident Evil next time you have an assignment.

Did you at least give it a better ending? :P

And Garrus and femshep lived happily ever after...RIGHT?!?!?

. . . . . . that's what I would do . . . . . .

YDI for not attempting to make up your own content.

It was his favorite story on the Citadel.

When plagiarism gets involved, nobody wins.
