Yes, it's interesting that Swen linked the "crisis" to being a company that makes changes even up to the last minute. Which obviously can lead to unanticipated knock-on effects and bugs found in regression testing that can lead to last minute panics, which of course is why developers usually try to avoid it!

It's probably fruitless but nevertheless also interesting to speculate whether the last minute change that it sounds like caused the delay issuing review codes was a change that was already on Larian's backlog that they inadvisably tried to squeeze in, or whether it's something new they tried to do as a result of feedback after the PFH and info shared by people who've had chance to play the later version of the game.

It does seem plausible that it's the latter, though I imagine whatever it is surely wouldn't involve a significant rework of anything we saw. Surely???
