Ironmace also had harsh words for Nexon's claim that the
studio could not have produced working prototypes of Dark and
Darker so quickly without trade secrets from Nexon: "The fact
that a big game company like Nexon can't develop games this
fast doesn't mean that other studios, big and small, can't
develop at that speed."
While both P3 and Dark and Darker are being made using Unreal
Engine, Ironmace claims that P3 was "written while learning
because none of the programmers had any experience using
Unreal Engine at the time of the project," and that "using
the code and assets of the P3 project as a reference would
not have been helpful in proceeding with the Dark and Darker
project." To bolster the claim, Ironmace released partly
redacted git logs of Dark and Darker's development, a massive
document stretching back to and-darker/Gold.html">Dark And Darker Gold the project's
inception in September 2021.
Another claim of Nexon's that Ironmace contests is the list
of assets Nexon says is shared between the two games. Nexon
argues that this is an overwhelming similarity and evidence
of theft, while Ironmace points out that they are all either
purchasable assets on the Unreal store, or else generated by
development tools like Wwise. Ironmace included a spreadsheet
detailing the sources of the files singled out by Nexon.

One of the more interesting exhibits from Ironmace is its
comparison of P3 class concepts to
cheap
Darker Gold those from Dark and Darker. Nexon claims
that Dark and Darker's character classes derive from
copyrighted concept art, while P3 and Dark and Darker share
an as-of-yet unnamed lead concept artist. The artist in
question outlines various reference images they used in
creating Dark and Darker's characters, before contrasting
them with counterparts from P3. The artist seems to be
arguing that both sets of characters merely draw from the
same well of generic, tabletop fantasy inspiration dating
back to Dungeons and Dragons, and they all do represent
distinct pieces of art rendered in different poses and
settings.
