YouTuber The Completionist, Jirad Khalil, is facing accusations of keeping $600,000 donated to his charity instead of donating it. Khalil denies any malicious intent and claims the money will be donated to the right foundation. However, his cameo in the indie game Sea of Stars, which he named his personal game of the year, will be patched out due to the ongoing scandal. The developers want to maintain a positive and optimistic space and believe there is enough evidence to associate The Completionist negatively. The incident raises questions about partnering with streamers and YouTubers for in-game features. The outcome of the accusations remains uncertain, but public opinion seems to be against Khalil.
