>>37635992What pisses me off the most is the whole "we didn't want to spread misinformation so we did a ROM hack with fanmade sprites and names" schtick HC and TSW have about the whole thing. How retarded do you have to be to actually not see this shitstorm coming. The moment I realized what was going on, which was pretty early on, the first thing that came to mind was "this is the worst way this leak could've been disclosed", no wonder nobody wants to disclose their involvement with the thing. Did nobody thought about the optics of the whole thing before doing it?
That being said, it was pretty obvious it wasn't a prototype. Window borders were Blue's, it used Blue's tileset, and the whole fucking thing was in color, not to mention in english. Even before the info dump happened, chat was asking how much of it was fanmade, rather than "is it real".
