If you read my post, you notice I don't mention what I personally think of him using assets from another game. But in all honesty, I don't really care if somebody intends to use assets as non-placeholders, as developers that do this will receive very little support and will be banned/removed from many donation/subscription pages such as Patreon e.g.
So basically they're just wasting their time and squandering their own reputation in the meantime.
I just find it hilarious and somewhat ironic that people complain about somebody stealing assets, when the majority pirated the original game and never purchased it after they finished it. Not to mention that this happens on a forum that lists ripped games for everybody to freely download.
It's like one thief fighting with another thief over theft.
