When you play a game on release date that wasn’t leaked, spoilers and stuff surface on the internet at an average pace. Players who wait a long time to play the game will have this similar experience.
Leaked content spreads like wildfire as the posters know it’ll most likely be taken down, and well, streisand effect. All communities for the game will be flooded with untagged spoilers before the game is even out. I bet that streamer was basically speedrunning the games to leak as much as possible, which most players who just enjoy the game won’t do.
Either way, the money asked for is a lot, yes, however pirating and broadcasting unreleased games is a very stupid crime.
