Why does everyone think he was being literate? He's using metaphors to say it wasn't lack of preparation but multiple unexpected issues with the build being broken. Of course he's deleting them, the only way to correct the backers who think he's being literal is to spell out in big letters that the "game" is B R O K E N.

Here's mine: an emergency injunction was put into play because SQ42 is the very property CryTek is suing over, and advertising it in this way would complicate the lawsuit even more since it would be followed by "pledges" that would be, according to the demands, partially CryTek's cash. So they're refactoring the show to only use old footage and taking out all the interwoven sales that were peppered throughout. :tinfoil:

If any kind of injunction gets put into play, I would laugh so hard. "Let's have a holiday stream promoting Chris' baby with more bullshit and...what? What do you mean we'll go to jail if we show any of it now?! How are we supposed to milk the whales?!"

I mean they've lied for so long that they can't even tell the truth about a loving stream delay to backers who gave them millions. Most open development ever.

I mean people that are still in the camp of "it's not a total scam, they're trying their best and are just really incompetent!" gotta raise an eyebrow over yet another instance of blatant lying and avoiding any straight answers.

The unrated version just improves on the original by removing Sandi's name from the closing credits as well.

Given previous experience with poo poo like this, almost assuredly someone (Crobberts?) probably said "fix these two minor things for the stream tomorrow" yesterday, and the devs with basically no sleep, etc. broke like _everything_ instead and there was no time to roll back before the live stream started.

Sorry, can't think of anything involving Sandi in some way (even if only by rumor) being unrated as not also containing the collection of her tickle fetish videos.

A: All of it.

[Becca Farneway]: "Ha ha. You were right about the stabilizers, though. I'll start the rebalancing protocols."

Is that a minor typo which occurred during a goon transcription of some audio, or did the original scriptwriter try to write some "witty repartee" without realizing they misspelled court martial?
