The videos and pictures are copyrighted material. They are not his own content. And they are most likely not 'free to use for commercial purpose'.
You also have to differentiate what you do with it: Using them for non-profit reasons is a different matter than trying to make money with it by either selling them directly or - in this case - by "selling" them by demanding money so people can access his patreon and download it from there (= commercial purpose).
OP basically tries to make money by using those videos/pictures in his game, so this becomes a offense for which he can get sued (or Patreon, because they are distributing it via the plattform). That's why Patreon is deleting stuff like that usually immediately (as soon as they notice).
As said, it's all written down in Patreons (and basically every content selling plattform ever) terms.
