He knew it happened to the game, he watched it happen right in front of him, that's why he left this site. The problem is twofold.
One, the game was getting released at decreasing intervals from the moment of subscriber release, which by design is supposed to be two weeks earlier than the free public version to give us some time to enjoy it before the public, despite the public version being completely identical and only being delayed for a short period.
Two, the care packages were supposed to give us subscribers back some actual benefit that we no longer had since the only benefit below $30 was to get the game early, something that was now happening for free within a day, hours, and at one point at least, minutes from the subscriber release. With the game now leaking at decreasingly delayed intervals from the subscriber release, it left subscribers below the now gone $30 tier no reason to stay subscribed except the will to support the game.
It's actually a testament to his will to see this game completed that he hasn't just stopped putting it on the internet entirely, which is what I would have done by the time anything I released was getting leaked in less than a day.
