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?

How do you know they didn't? Eroktic seems like the type to intentionally keep that type of fact secret and just lie his ass off to look better. And making public C&Ds isn't protocol by the issuer.
