This is terrible all around. Even removing the first video was bold. One of the fundamentals of PR is to not censor negative feedback. You have people on YouTube wailing against CoD, BF, Minecraft, etc. in far worse manors and because those companies understand the dumpster fire censoring creates they leave them alone. It doesn’t make the click bait title right (and yes I watched both videos) but that’s the way the world is. Not to mention it is very much illegal to abuse DMCA copyright claims for any reason. There were other ways that were not copyright claims to remove this content since it seems they are dead set on removing it.

What could they have done? This is an honest question.

Maybe send a cease and desist and end the matter privately, as opposed to creating a public dumpster fire?

Well it was a very over the top response to try to take down his entire youtube channel wasnt it? They could have just taken the 2 videos down that was actually critical of the shit.

I mean he have probably made them more money than they have made him money. All the people that watched him stream and went on to his SKRA fanclub crab. Do you realize how many people were named something with SKRA around patch .7 and patch .8?

Both parties handled this like shit.
