A rip-off is a exact copy of the game. Monsters of Etheria has a unique concept for getting monsters, has a unique item collection system, and even has its own idea of Monster Skins. If it were a rip-off, you have have to catch monsters, buy items, battle other players using Monsters. These people most likely are kids that are die hard fans of Pokemon, or just kids that are confused on the topic of the words "Rip-Off" This game is an inspired game. And remember, inspired and copied are two different meanings. (Just can't wait for someone to reply with "I ain't reading all of that")
