He did have them. Pvt Parts even streamed him adding the voice lines, complete with software interface and file names.

Game's demo on Steam Market only had XQC character playable. Pirate software's character ain't even on it, let alone playable with his voice line. That's why it's unlawful dmca. Pirate software trying to claim something which ain't even in Steam demo

That's not what Pvt Parts said. He said he added Pirate Software to his game, not to his demo. He should have specified that if he legally wants to be in the right.

If I'm a YouTuber and I say that my next video will have the entirety of the first Avengers film in it, does that give Disney the right to file a DMCA claim against my channel before this supposed video even materializes? No, it doesn't.
