Like I said, having your cake and eating it too. He makes a post on a torrent site that his game on a paywalled site has been updated, and *schocked picachu face* people torrent it.Did you even read what he said? He said he doesn't mind if we download his game here but that it got leaked here within just a day. He didn't explicitly say we have to wait till 9th Jan but to just wait few days.
It ain't wrong to be upset to see your hardwork getting thrown out for free before you even had the chance to make the profit you deserved from it. Anyone telling otherwise is just being a dick or a kid who hasn't worked a day in his life. But whatever, if you really care about seeing this game get better, you should know what the right thing to do is.
The dude should be making posts to his subscribers asking them to not leak it if he doesnt want it to happen, not on the same site he is trying to advertise on.
