    IANAL obviously, but a game beta seems like the perfect legitimate use case for an nda. It’s time limited, very specific, you have legitimately volunteered.

    NDAs are all different but ask yourself

    • is this nda limited to a specific time period or is it indefinite?
    • is it very specific to what it covers or generic enough that it say, prevents you from working? -was it a legitimate choice or mandated but an unequal power such as your employer?

    If you have any such questions, you should definitely consult a lawyer before assuming

      Bot? Or just bored?

      I’m not OP, I’m not the one asking. And in my case the game came out like 15 years ago. So, not sure why all the help, but maybe it’ll be useful for someone else? I surely don’t need a lawyer to tell me I can or can’t mention I was in a beta test for a game years ago… certainly don’t need to pay one.
