I dont know much about copyrights. Do copyrights stay on something forever? Do they ware off after time? Because I want to use materials from a game made like 10 years ago. Can I do that?

In the US, copyright expires 70 years after the death of the author ... unless the law changes again and more copyright extensions are added.
