What does “make other public performance of it” mean? Am I subject to licence revokation if I make a screenshot and post it on social media or something?

    Nintendo has the same clause. Seems to be a weird thing Japanese game studios do

    I can’t read “You must not […] broadcast it” as anything but banning streamers from playing Helldivers 2?

      This puzzled me as well. It is meant to mean classic television I assume, but I also think it should be argued streaming is a form of broadcasting

    a “public performance” is something like a concert, stage production, or public screening where people are gathered who are not family members.

    a static screenshot would not be considered one, but might be covered elsewhere in the document; but also allowed anyway by fair use.

    It is saying not to do things that could make money off of HDII without their permission, including live public performances.
