It’s certainly true that some good games, especially indie games, don’t get discussed much - and not just not on social media, but at all.

Oh, so you’re not, like, a cool or interesting person. Can Elon interest you in a Twitter Blue account, perchance?

So...did they just make a shitty single player Payday or something, realize it sucked, and slap on a bunch of mostly nostalgic celebrities in the hopes they’d carry it?

You will absolutely not buy and play this. You’re posting entirely for clout and it’s terminally lame.

Probably because he didn’t want to expose his contact that gives him boxes that fell off the back of a truck.

Why are you already concluding that Wizards of the Coast is the bad guy? People steal from Wizards of the Coast constantly. Did it occur to you that the guy who illegally posted a bunch of probably-stolen content on the internet might be a liar? This guy’s story is that he, a Magic YouTuber with millions of cards,

I’m just talking about the general principle based on the given assumed facts.

That’s not how it works.

If you are mailed a product you did not order, you get to legally keep it, doesn’t matter if it was a mistake and it matters even less if it has a street date on it

If you get something you did not order you can legally keep that item even though the company made a mistake. It’s not your job to fix their mistakes.

I think that a little bit more understanding would help this situation. To start, I doubt that “Wizards of the Coast” sent anybody anywhere for any reason, because they’re a subsidiary of Hasbro, who have probably retained the Pinkerton Agency’s security services for a pretty good reason - patenting a lot of stuff

“The only good Pinkerton is an unemployed Pinkerton.”

The retailer had a legal right to the property”

That’s not how it works.

Law school is a better friend in this case.

But thats the thing, they hired private investigators exactly because of the number of leaks. Further reporting states they were there to follow the trail of the cards in order to plug the proverbial hole, not to randomly intimidate this one random youtuber

No. That is not at ALL true.

Oh yeah entirely possible. It sounds like his source is either stealing it directly, or gets it from someone who steals it off somewhere in the production line. The fact that “his guy” didn’t really know what it was makes me believe it’s just part of some package deal from whoever is fencing him the Pokemon and YGO

I think its more that they are concerned people are stealing from them or collaborating with retailers to leak stuff on purpose because there's been more leaks than average lately. Ergo rhe private investigators

They’re acting as agents of the proper owner.
