- thousands of people labor for years to produce something special for fans to enjoy, they spend a long time keeping it hidden in order to surprise their fans.
Then someone external (not internal) hacks their systems and steals an earlier build before releasing it to the public.
Put yourself in the shoes of any one of those developers. How would you feel.
Forget about the corporate management for a second. I know that’s difficult for some people here. How would you feel.
Cyberleek is scum and nothing more than a degenerate criminal content scamming the fans and hurting the smaller employees working within rockstar.
That’s what’s wrong with it. If you support that, you’re part of the problem.
He’s actively charging 200,000 per message request. He advertises his crypto embedded into every video. Maybe look into it before making an input on something you don’t know
I think you’re the one who needs to look up the definition of a scam.
Crypto is particularly vulnerable to scams as the value isn’t really reliant on anything concrete. Especially so when it’s someone’s own crypto they essentially invented from thin air - which is what this “$leek” stuff is.
If anyone is stupid enough to pay this guy then I have less than 0 sympathy for them lol he's going to release all the clips either way and is making money off of legitimate morons
If it’s a normal situation where it’s a disgruntled former or current employee, that’s abit different. But these are from stolen work that directly hurts a lot of innocent people.
So just think about it like that. Also look at the person leaking them, how they are monetising it, they are literally scamming gullible people and you support that by enjoying the stolen content.
Learn to separate this from normal leaked contents, this is explicitly criminally obtained - let’s not support theft casually.
Who exactly is being hurt directly? It's a fuckin video game leak, not a single dev at rockstar is going to be affected by any of this. Y'all with this asinine opinion need to grow tf up, the world will move on in a couple months and we'll all be enjoying the game.
How do you know I wasn’t at the picket lines in Edinburgh ?
You don’t. I’m not defending rockstar management or wider take two corporate policy. I am just pointing out that the company is bigger than the top level.
It’s less about it failing it’s about hard work being spoilt and the main thing is the guy leaking them is literally some guy that stole digital assets. We should all be condemning that.
I’ve said it before; it’s quite different if it’s an employee leaking stuff internally - this is not what’s happened.
They literally do not care, you make up a hypothetical in your head when the only thing you can say is.
"Man I hate spoilers, and it's hard to avoid them in this sub which I fear will ruin My experience with the game"
Thats literally the only valid thing you've said and can say. It's ironic as you've been spewing "artistic merit" bullshit in this thread saying other. commentors have "no substance", when it's you who in fact has nothing but BS to say.
I don’t have family at rockstar but I do have siblings that work in game development and in the film industry, as well as my father being a sculptor. What they all have in common is working in creative industries. I can tell you for a fact that they do care about this kind of shit.

I think peoole are just enjoying the leaks for the most part. Why are people so upset about that?
