pulling the curtain back a little here right I'm showing a little how the sausage is made you know devs don't talk about this too much right why would I give our internal deadline and mention that we're delaying it when like you guys didn't even know that what the deadline was right but the reason is two reasons, first of all the video that I wanted to make today can't be made in part because of these issues these specific issues that we're running into, and and I wanted to make something for you all this week because I don't like that we set a specific expectation of a teaser season with information and then just not and then just randomly not dropping videos just because we can't make it without an explanation okay so that's the first reason why I wanted to make this video and the second reason is because I think being open and transparent is important with you guys the reality is that this kind of thing happens all the time in game development right it's happened to us many times before, but like from the outside looking in you don't see a lot of this right, You probably don't notice that we're on this random ass roller coaster ride every single time we, embark on an update that we're going to release but the reality is like we deal with things like this all the time this is largely not a completely unique situation in most ways in some ways it is like we we're often usually like inches away from making these videos even during the other update, Seasons teaser Seasons like it's always been pretty close and, complicated and roadblocks have always popped up but we've somehow overcome them every time before it's just not really the case now but yeah at this stage it's a little more obvious I think to you all, than usual because the these issues that we're having throughout development are now affecting the community team and what videos we can make right and so we think that like oh now's probably a good time to give a little bit of an explanation about it so
