If you still think this is a game in development
So I just discovered this "game" and learned about The Day Before today. I don't think the casual audience/gamer can tell the difference between an animation and real-time gameplay. Similarly to how some can't tell when a scripted event is triggered. In fact, these rendered animations are so engineered to look like gameplay, added with a crosshair overlay, it would be hard to tell the difference.

I missed The Day Before fiasco completely, but I will not miss this. I'm watching the Patreon updates, and they say they have a team now, covering numerous departments for development; how they're doing a NDA approach; and my favorite: the first sentence in the paragraph, "If we were't actually developing the game we would have publically announce that LONG time ago.", which translate to 'we will tell you if we are lying'.

Then 3 months go by and they post another written update behind a paywall that they're "still waiting for the business processes", as seen in the text preview. I'm looking forward to the next update post that further stretches the wait, but at the same time, boosts their patrons hope and lowers doubt.

It's pretty fun to watch how they will drag this out for as long as possible.

Never trust a company that has the word 'clout' in its name
No offense, but how can you have "learned about The Day Before" today?? Are you living under a rock by any chance?? Everybody and their grandma heard about The Day Before...

I think that's mainly due to me not having any social media accounts like Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat, Facebook etc. I also use adblock, so that hides even more. So I guess I kinda am living under a rock from other people's view. I'm fine with this

Yes
Patreon Post Update
August 25

"Hey all! At this point it becomes comical how many times I came here to say big news are coming. But well, we are still tied as we wait to..."

That's all you can read from the text preview. The person making the updates even finds it funny
Aaaand of course the paywalled "update" is likely more talk about how they inexplicably can't talk about/show any of their own game, but please continue to throw money at them! Finding anyone who's both a paid member and willing to publicly share the update is basically impossible, and those that do never give anything substantial beyond "they're working on it trust." Can't wait for the next quarterly nothingburger while goobs continue to open their wallets.
I wonder how much longer they can do this before their supporters get wise; they've been running since 2021. Too much clout, not enough games
Settle down mate, is not like they forcing anyone to give them money. What's your point? You don't need to be fiscalizing every update they put out rooting for it being a scam. Just chill, forget about this game, and if it never even release, good for you, if it does, just don't buy it.

Why does this post upset you? No one is rooting for it to be a scam. No one is forcing anyone to give away money, but we're out here engineering videos and making promises we know we can't deliver.

What's my point? What's yours? Are you suggesting we hush about what's going on? Would you like everyone to stop talking about this, or are you telling me personally?

What? It upsets me because is pointless. And you have no idea of what you're even talking about.
Yes, I'm telling you personally, cause you the one who made a post about it. My point is that if it is scam or not, your crying here won't make any difference.

Thank you for your concern regarding me. Sorry this post upsets you because you think it's pointless. I do have an idea of what I'm talking about. You worry for me on the subject is interesting and suspicious, though

I don't understand why this is an issue for you. I'm sorry you feel that way. This post is about a small group of individuals scamming people; I don't want you to believe I've targeted you in any way to make you upset
