But.... why though?? Just for the lulz? They must be doing SOMETHING that provoked this? (Not victim-blaming, whatever they're doing doesn't justify threats - just trying to understand what's happening)

Bethesda fanboys thinking daddy Todd “deserves” that money or something.

I don't think this is it because the only commonality between bethesda fans I have ever seen is calling Todd a liar and hoping he falls into a mineshaft.

Pretty damn sure all of these renewal projects require the original game files.

If you're popular on the internet and not receiving death threats, you aren't that popular.
