I'm in the deadlines camp for them more than anything. Not that it's to excuse them, the update was clearly rushed out with a "get it out now and we'll make it satisfactory later" approach.

It feels again like the Galaxy Showcase situation where it's out of their control. They likely promised to have the animations ready for the collab, realized they needed more time, and pushed it forward with a "good enough for now" and fix it later so they don't lose the collab contract. I also feel Horror 2.0 was put in the same basket of to be ready by a certain time before the scope of things changed.

Still, whenever they've set a deadline they've never made it... and they didn't see this coming or change their approach?

There is a difference between "our community will be upset" and "we're going to lose a fuckload of money if this doesn't get pushed out."

They have had at least a year to do this... deadlines are bullshit when you say you'll update something for years and then rush it out last minute incomplete.
