But why should anyone have to break the law to watch the Mets?

      Yes… But then again how can other people know… It kind of sucks, I would have never found some steam sites w/o others sharing… But I get what you mean.

        I don’t have a problem with sharing…but when these mainstream news sites out these places, there’s usually blood in the water coming. The same thing happened with a free VR piracy repo after Bonelab came out. It was shared by a mainstream game site and then tiktok. Afterwards, they had to go dark and switch to a paid / VIP only.

        Same effect happens with Nintendo fan games.

          Yeah there’s a big difference between spreading the word on an individual basis and broadcasting something on a national media outlet. The latter is just obnoxious and directly harmful to the community. Good on you for calling it out.
