Come on Ant, you used to be good at shilling...what happened..take a BMM to the knee?
Well, I guess the cosplay is likely in lieu of any actual gameplay. And in fairness, should Bunnyman turn up, it may just work!
That is my read. There have been some meaty changes to EU law regarding sales of digital goods. Given they have pre-sold SQ42 for 10 years with no product release, I suspect all SQ42 sales in the EU are potentially open to refunds. Either they need to wrap it back into SC or follow the same policy as SC and release the opening episodes first chapter as a pre-alpha. Assuming Starfield releases in buggy fashion they could fly it in under the radar. They have also had a tax credit from HMRC for a decade with no release of product, at some point I would have expected a tax auditor to ask some questions..
Whatever it is, it's very, very unusual to remove from sale in this way and then leave it that way without redress.
Luckily for them I'm not sure there's anyone left answering the phones at HMRC these days.

Which incidentally leads to a very interesting corollary, assuming the issues are indeed legal/regulatory in nature (we dont really know): If SQ42 has been removed from sale because there is no product released at all after 11 years pre selling it, the same logic would dictate that the fact SC is still being sold means it has actually been released.

Didn't Mark Hamil announced he was retiring from the industry recently? With him out, they can't do any reshoot of scenes and probably have to cut his role out completely. I don't think its this though, but I don't think its EU regulations either. CIG had been skirting legality for so long I think they're pros at it by now.
SC = averaging 5.5k concurrent (launcher only)
SF = averaging 550k concurrent first week (Steam only; also on other PC stores, and Xbox)
I don't like to scoff as I did pay to go to Expo17 to see in person the first in a long line of disappointing roadmaps*
*Disclaimer: The Odyssey roadmap wasn't disappointing, just the implementation.
Surely someone must be answering at HMRC with 66,000 employees?
Not if you're asking for a tax rebate they're not
An interesting off topic story concerning HMRC...I have a mate who works for them, as does his wife. He being a corporate customs and excise agent whilst his wife is on the 'knock' squads dealing with high level arrests of counterfeiters, illegal importers and the like.
I had a call from him asking if I still knew of anyone selling cheap 'duty free' tobacco as his wife had just arrested his 'Baccy' man during a sting operation

Didn't know this one and I don't think he will respect this promise.LittleAnt calling Chris Roberts a liar, never thought I'd see it
That's a long list...
So you are still calling Chris a liar?
He absolved himself.
